And I so understand your feelings. I remember a particularly bad time when my Mom was in the depths of Alzheimer's and my Dad was deteriorating physically and so depressed about both their situations and so frustrated about not being able to help my Mom in any way ~ I remember my sister Diane literally shaking her fist at Heaven and asking, "Why, God? Why?!"<br />I've shaken my fist at Heaven a few times too.<br /><br />"The Lord Giveth, and, The Lord Taketh Away" is so true.<br /><br />And it seems strange and almost cruel how life works out that immense joy and immense heartache seem to come hand-in-hand at the same time. But I like to think that God sends us the good because He Knows of the heartache to come. Or sometimes we can be in the midst of despair and He will send a Blessing our way, sometimes even a small pleasant distraction, a tiny reminder that He Is Here, and He Is in charge.<br /><br />God Bless you and yours, Gail.<br />Love and Prayers,<br />EileenEileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679894230965874631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7828389555620814846.post-23472333167665248832012-05-30T21:08:41.953-04:002012-05-30T21:08:41.953-04:00My goodness, I've been away too long, I've...My goodness, I've been away too long, I've missed so much.<br />I'm sorry to read about your Mom's fall, but I'm happy to read of your plans for your 'traditional' Mother's Day gathering. I hope your Mom is doing well.<br /><br />And I was overjoyed to read about your happy reunion. A piece of your heart patched right back into place. Beautiful. I'm very happy for you, Gail.<br /><br />I don't know when I'll post again, but I'm going to try to visit more often.<br />Love and Prayers,<br />EileenEileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679894230965874631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7828389555620814846.post-62245378690715409982012-05-26T16:19:01.229-04:002012-05-26T16:19:01.229-04:00Greetings Gail,

The dinner you have planned sounds delicious! I haven't made Manicotti in years!<br />Your mom sounds like a trooper Gail. And I do remember about the Sunflowers for your sister. I know you will have a great day with family. Will your mom be able to come? I hope you start to feel better soon. I have made my text LARGE on my blog. I have trouble reading some of them too!

I hope Skipp finds a job, though I know you will miss him when he goes back to work. <br /><br />Sounds like you have been busy with chores and also enjoying yourselves. I struggle with the new blogger too. I'm still trying to figure out a few items.<br /><br />I want to wish you a Happy Mother's day. Also to your Mother and your sister. I know you will have a blessed day. So sorry about your Mom's broken tail bone. I hope she it better soon. I think it is so sweet to get your MOm a corsage.<br /><br />You keep inspiring me with your simple living. I've been doing the same thing as well. <br /><br />Continued blessings to you.Finding Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07671978828279304904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7828389555620814846.post-57000073735171358032012-05-08T13:07:47.851-04:002012-05-08T13:07:47.851-04:00I hope that the Mother's Day get together is a...I hope that the Mother's Day get together is a wonderful and happy one for you all, Gail.<br />I wish you could have seen the smile I had as I read about your deck cleaning, setting up for grilling...and that morning coffee. How relaxing is that...sigh. Beautiful, Gail!<br />I do hope that your Mom recovers quickly. Bless her. Give her hugs from me. <br />I cannot imagine the pain that you go through, Gail. You handle your MS symptoms graciously and with realistic expectations that you make the best of whatever situations you face. That gives me strength and courage. You inspire me beyond words. Continue to take care of you. I know that you will. I can tell that from reading your blog and from the friendship and kinship I feel. <br />Hugs and love,<br />J.Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214796594702277709noreply@blogger.com
