THANKFUL FOR WONDERFUL BLOGGING FRIENDS

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY TO MY DEAR FRIEND DORIS WHO SHARES

THE SAME BIRTHDAY AS MY SISTER, SHERRY. DORIS IS THE MOTHER, OF

TAWNA, ANOTHER LONG-TIME FRIEND OF MY MINE. DORIS IS A VERY

TALENTED HOMEMAKER AND AVID GARDENER. SHE HAS A BEAUTIFUL HOME

AND A BEAUTIFUL YARD. SHE SEWS, PAINTS, COOKS, QUILTS, AND HAS MADE A

PEACEFUL HOME FOR HER FAMILY. THAT HANDSOME MAN IN THE PICTURE

WITH HER IS NAMED RICHARD...SHE IS STILL RAISING HIM...HAHA...THEY

RECENTLY CELEBRATED 50 YEARS OF MARRIAGE. ALL OF YOU IN BLOG LAND,

WOULD LOVE HER AS MUCH AS I DO. SHE HAS 4 GRANDCHILDREN SERVING

THIS COUNTRY.....BRANDON IS IN IRAQ, THOR IS GOING TO IRAQ, KRISTEN,

AND JAMIE. DORIS, HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY BEAUTIFUL LADY.

BREAST CANCER SURVIVOR....IRENE, MY MOTHER IN LOVE. SHE THEN HAD

LUNG CANCER AND IT WAS DIFFERENT FROM HER BREAST CANCER. SHE NEVER

SMOKED A DAY OF HER LIFE, AND SHE IS A PINK WARRIOR.

SALLY....PLEASE PRAY FOR SALLY...SHE IS A BREAST CANCER SURVIVOR.

HER CANCER CAME BACK ABOUT THE TIME AMY WAS DIAGNOSED AND SHE

HAS HAD QUITE A TIME WITH THE CHEMOTHERAPY MAKING HER SO VERY

ILL. SHE JUST HAD AN MRI LAST WEEK AND FOUND OUT SHE HAS 8 TUMORS

IN HER BRAIN....I SAID SHE WILL MAKE IT AND SHARED DEENA'S STORY

DO I LOOK PRETTY IN PINK....SHE HAS BATTLED THE SAME WAR AND

THAT IS WHY DEENA CREATED THE PINK ANGEL WARRIOR.....FOR THOSE

WHO HAVE HAD BREAST CANCER AND BATTLED THE WAR TO SURVIVE.

MY DAUGHTERS FRIEND ASHLEY HAS AUNT KATHY THAT NEEDS PRAYER.

SHE HAD BREAST CANCER A FEW YEARS AGO AND JUST FOUND OUT YESTERDAY

SHE HAS CANCER IN HER LUNG. WHEN YOU HAVE BATTLED THE WAR

AGAINST CANCER AND YOU THINK YOU HAVE BEATEN IT....TO HEAR YOU HAVE

CANCER AGAIN IS LIKE BEING HIT IN THE STOMACH WITH A BAT.

LEILA...IS DOING GOOD. SHE IS WEAK AND HAS FOUND OUT SHE WILL

HAVE TO TAKE 7 MONTHS OF CHEMOTHERAPY AND THEN THEY WILL REEVALUATE.

HER HUSBAND JUST WENT BACK TO WORK TODAY. HE HAS BEEN OFF A MONTH

WITH HER AND HIS COMPANY HAS BEEN THE MOST SUPPORTIVE OF ANY

COMPANY I HAVE EVER SEEN CONSIDERING HE IS NOT THE ONE SICK. WHEN

THERE IS A SERIOUS ILLNESS IN THE FAMILY IT EITHER BRINGS YOU CLOSER

OR IT SPLITS YOU APART. LEILA HAS A WONDERFUL HUSBAND.

MY BELOVED AMY.......ON MONDAY SHE RECEIVED ERBITUX. HER

PLATELETS WERE TOO LOW TO GET THE REST OF HER CHEMOTHERAPY.

THE NURSE GAVE HER A NEUMEGA INJECTION AND THEN I GAVE HER ONE ON

TUESDAY. TODAY, WEDNESDAY, HER COUNTS WERE HIGH ENOUGH TO

RECEIVE HER CHEMOTHERAPY. SHE RECEIVED TAXOTERE......IFEX AND

MESNA AND CAME HOME ON CISPLATIN. SHE WILL GO BACK TO CLINIC

TOMORROW AND DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN AND COME HOME WITH CISPLATIN

INFUSING AGAIN. THEN ON FRIDAY IT WILL BE THROUGH AND WE START

DOUBLING UP ON NEUPOGEN AND NEUMEGA INJECTIONS.

SHE GOES BACK TO OKC TO SEE DR. MEDINA ON MAY 11, 2009. I

THINK WE ARE LOOKING AT SURGERY SOON AFTER THAT BUT HE MAY WANT MORE

CHEMOTHERAPY. THANK YOU ALL FOR REMEMBERING NOT ONLY AMY

BUT EVERYONE WHO IS IN NEED OF PRAYER.

I DON'T WANT THIS BLOG TO BE SEEN AS DEPRESSING BECAUSE I LIST PEOPLE

WHO ARE IN NEED OF PRAYER. I SEE IT AS A VERY POSITIVE THING. ANY TIME

YOU FIND SOMEONE OR A GROUP OF PEOPLE WHO ARE WILLING TO

TOUCH HEAVEN WITH YOUR PRAYER PETITION YOU HAVE FOUND A

VALUABLE FRIEND. I ALWAYS FELT THAT THERE MAY BE A TIME I

CANNOT FIND THE STRENGTH TO PRAY FOR MYSELF AND WILL NEED

SOMEONE WHO WILL PRAY FOR ME.

WOULD YOU SHAVE YOUR EYEBROWS OFF IN THE NAME OF BEAUTY

POSTER PICTURE FOUND AT: www.AllPosters.com

The famous painting done by Leonardo Da Vinci that everyone calls the MONA LISA

is not really called that. Its real title is La Gioconda.

The woman in the painting was the wife of a man named Francesco del

Gioconda, and so the painting was titled by its creator La Gioconda.

It was known for a time as the Madonna Lisa, which probably explains why it has

its present name.

Leonardo created this painting over many years, beginning in 1503. When he

finished it is debated by historians.

I know everyone knows about the Mona Lisa. I have drawn her several times

but never noticed one important fact. This famous woman has no "EYEBROWS!"

Look at her closely. YES! Look closely! Woman at that time were considered

more beautiful if they had their eyebrows shaved.

I went back and stared at her picture as it is the eyes that I notice about people.

I guess I was so drawn by her eyes and the dark shadowing at the top of her eyes

I took it for granted she had eyebrows.

MY QUESTION IS THREE PARTS............................................

1. DID YOU KNOW SHE DIDN'T HAVE EYEBROWS

2. WOULD YOU SHAVE YOUR EYEBROWS OFF IF YOU WERE TOLD ALL

BEAUTIFUL WOMAN DID!

3. WHY DO YOU THINK SHE WAS SMILING

I WILL ANSWER IN THE COMMENT SECTION

WHEN I SAW THIS CARD IT MADE ME THINK OF LITTLE PRAYER WARRIORS GETTING ON THE PRAYER TRAIN.

WE HAVE MANY URGENT PRAYER REQUESTS:

SPENCER AT BELLAMERE COTTAGE-HER DAUGHTER IS HAVING KNEE SURGERY TODAY....SHE HAD A HORRIBLE LIFE AFFECTING INFECTION THE LAST TIME SHE HAD SURGERY ON THIS KNEE...NO GERM FORMED AGAINST HER WILL PROSPER AND SHE WILL HEAL QUICKLY

CONNOR--MOLLY'S GRANDSON

DAWN'S SON NOAH

BECKY AT HOLIDAY IN THE SON-THE TRAGIC ACCIDENT THAT KILLED HER SIL

KATHERINE AT COUNTRY ROMANTIC IN THE PASSING OF HER GRANDMOTHER

JOANNA AT MOSS HILL STUDIO- HUSBAND RON'S CANCER HAS RETURNED AND HE NEEDS BRAIN SURGERY

LEILA--HAD A REACTION TO HER CHEMO YESTERDAY AND WAS PLACED ON OXYGEN FOR A PERIOD OF TIME...SHE SAID SHE FELT LIKE HER HEAD WAS GOING TO BLOW UP

AMY GOES FOR LAB TODAY...AT 1030PM WHEN I CALLED TO CHECK ON HER LAST NIGHT SHE WAS SHOPPING AT WAL MART...YOU'RE NOT GONNA KEEP THAT GIRL DOWN

PATRICIA, JERRY, EDWARD, RICHARD, JAY, SUZANNE, CAROL, BOBBY, ERRICA AND RESTORATION, CLIFFORD, TED, MY DAD TED, AUNT JEAN, AUNT DONNA, SHERRY, JONAH, JONATHAN, ROY AND ELISABETH, OUR MILITARY, BRANDON, OUR POLICE OFFICERS ESPECIALLY MO'S SON, AMBULANCE DRIVERS, OUR PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SCHOOLS, OUR SUNDAY SCHOOLS, JAMIE, THOR, KRISTEN, DORIS' COUSIN, DORIS AND RICHARD, ANGIE, HER DAD AND MOTHER

BLESS EACH ONE OF YOU. I PRAY YOU FEEL THE LOVE OF THE LORD AND A

FRIEND TODAY. ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL EVEN WITH YOUR EYEBROWS.

MY "TWO CENTS" AND WORDLESS WEDNESDAY

CARRIE PREJEAN, MISS CALIFORNIA 2009 DID NOT WIN THE MISS USA PAGENT

BECAUSE SHE OFFENDED A VERY "POPULAR" CELEBRITY "GAY" BLOGGER, PEREZ

HILTON, WHO WAS A JUDGE. IT IS AMAZING TO ME THAT HE WAS ONLY ONE OF

13 TELECAST JUDGES AND YET EVERYONE SEEMED TO BE "AFRAID" OF WHAT THIS

GAY, CELEBRITY "GOSSIP" LITTLE MAN COULD DO TO THEM...WHAT HE MIGHT

SAY THAT WOULD/COULD/MIGHT/ PROBABLY WOULD NOT RUIN THEIR CAREER.

BY NOW YOU HAVE PROBABLY HEARD IT ALL.

PEREZ HILTON ASK MISS CALIFORNIA THIS QUESTION: "VERMONT

RECENTLY BECAME THE FOURTH STATE TO LEGALIZE SAME-SEX MARRIAGE. DO

YOU THINK EVERY STATE SHOULD FOLLOW SUIT? WHY OR WHY NOT?"

CARRIE PREJEAN ANSWERED, "I THINK IT'S GREAT AMERICANS ARE ABLE TO

CHOOSE ONE OR THE OTHER. WE LIVE IN A LAND YOU CAN CHOOSE SAME-SEX

MARRIAGE OR OPPOSITE MARRIAGE. AND YOU KNOW WHAT, IN MY COUNTRY,

IN MY FAMILY, I THINK THAT I BELIEVE THAT A MARRIAGE SHOULD BE BETWEEN

A MAN AND A WOMAN. NO OFFENSE TO ANYBODY THERE, BUT THAT'S HOW I WAS

RAISED AND THAT'S HOW I THINK IT SHOULD BE--BETWEEN A MAN AND A

WOMAN."

AS YOU KNOW SHE WAS FIRST RUNNER-UP AND PEREZ HILTON RAN TO THE

SAFETY OF HIS BLOG AND CALLED HER A HORRIBLE NAME. IT MADE ME THINK

OF THE LITTLE POEM WHEN I WAS LITTLE:

STICKS AND STONES

MAY HURT MY BONES

BUT YOUR WORDS WILL

NEVER HURT ME

I WOULD NEVER WANT TO HURT ANYONE...I HAVE GAY FRIENDS AND THEY

KNOW HOW I FEEL AND WE RESPECT EACH OTHER'S FEELINGS. BUT YOU SEE

I AM LIKE MISS CALIFORNIA, CARRIE PREJEAN.

IT IS NOT ABOUT BEING POLITICALLY CORRECT BUT BEING

BIBICALLY CORRECT.

SO MANY PEOPLE RIDE THE FENCE...RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE AND WHEN THEY

ARE WITH ONE GROUP THEY AGREE WITH THEM...WHEN THEIR WITH

ANOTHER GROUP THEY AGREE WITH THEM AND WHEN THEY LOOK AT

THE FACE IN THE MIRROR, THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT PERSON BELIEVES,

BECAUSE THERE IS NO ONE THERE TO TELL THEM WHAT IS "POLITICALLY

CORRECT."

IN ONE WAY YOU CAN SAY I AM LIKE PEREZ HILTON......I WON'T

COMPROMISE WHAT I BELIEVE.......BUT I AM NOT GOING TO CALL

HIM VILE NAMES...BECAUSE HE DOESN'T AGREE WITH ME. A TRUE

GENTLEMAN WOULD NEVER TALK ABOUT ANY WOMAN LIKE THAT UNLESS

HE WAS RAISED TO DISRESPECT WOMEN.

I AM VERY SORRY HER ANSWER COST HER THE MISS USA CROWN BUT

SHE HAS AN ETERNAL CROWN THAT IS PRICELESS.

I PRAY IF I AM PUT IN THE POSITION SHE WAS IN, I WILL BE AS BOLD,

AND NOT DISAPPOINT JESUS.
