well, i am home.
thanks for everyone's encouraging comments.... i'm not up to addressing any specifically, tho.
stressed backwards is desserts, i know, but i'm going to try to avoid the ice cream bucket anytime i'm emotionally charged.... i don't want to use food as a drug.
i have prescriptions meds for that. ha!
anyways.
i'm home, it's stinkin' cold in here but i am afraid to turn on the fireplace cuz the gas bill is whacked. unfortunately bills spelled backwards is only sllib. no encouragement there!
going to try to take my day in a chillaxed way, got some things to deal with but a lot i'm not going to even try today.
hmm, i'll make a list.
1. pick up prescription.
2. blow money on a cd i really shouldn't buy but i need to put some kind of positive spin on coming home today, so i think a 'treat' is in order..... i'm learning that self-care is more than just brushing your teeth. and i'll get in a walk with this one, too. wally world, here i come....
3. go for a walk.
4. unpack.
5. no masks today!!!
but oh, a kewl thing i got yesterday, my kitty ears. been looking forward to those for a while now!
mrawr.
re-reading this post it's amazing how many lols a person can put in one post when one does not feel very 'lolz'. ah, vey.
[some lolz removed for accuracy in representation of posters affect. enjoy.]
the goal: to focus this fuzzy, nut-bucket life and walk on Him - and on Him alone

THIS BLOG IS IN NEED OF AN OVERHAUL. there are posts from years back i would not be able to post in good conscience now. i plan to overhaul the blog, and either delete or add a disclaimer to those posts. but that is gonna take time....
"The Spirit never loosens where the Word binds; the Spirit never justifies where the Word condemns; the Spirit never approves where the Word disapproves; the Spirit never blesses where the Word curses." —Thomas Brooks
"God receives none but those who are forsaken, restores health to none but those who are sick, gives sight to none but the blind, and life to none but the dead. He does not give saintliness to any but sinners, nor wisdom to any but fools. In short: He has mercy on none but the wretched and gives grace to none but those who are in disgrace. Therefore no arrogant saint, or just or wise man can be material for God, neither can he do the work of God, but he remains confined within his own work and makes of himself a fictitious, ostensible, false, and deceitful saint, that is, a hypocrite." --Martin Luther (W.A. 1.183ff)
i will not let You go: "Jacob's sense of his total debility and utter defeat is now the secret of his power with his friendly Vanquisher. God can overthrow all the prowess of the self-reliant, but He cannot resist the earnest entreaty of the helpless." --Albert Barnes
i will not let You go: "Jacob's determination did not flow from his strength, it flowed from his weakness." --Charles Leiter
