Hey there everyone. I have been MIA for a while, been really busy and between the Holidays and some other issues going on, just haven't been up to posting much. I have been lurking and certianly am sending all those congrats to those of you with WOWs and prayers and blessings going out to all that need them!! 
First a bit of a WOW!!! I was at church yesterday, sitting next to my son and at the end of service a man sitting behind me reached up and tapped my son on the shoulder and said, I didn't know you had an older sister! Sounds familiar as a few months ago a couple of ladies from the same church said the same thing, but it just made me feel so good! LOL
Then today, I walked back to the warehouse to get something and a guy that used to work here is here doing some contract work for us and he said , WOW, you look fantastic!! I have not seen you in a long time. Made me feel just great!!! I could really tell he meant it too!! 

Now on to a bit of a sadder note, My MIL is starting to take another turn for the worse. She has started having anxiety attacks where her arms and legs start movning uncontrollably. we don't know what it is and they just give her a seditive to settle her down. Her breathing is still very very labored and she is unable to get around by herself at all. She is still sharp as a tack and honorary as ever, but still would you all keep her in your prayers.

I purposely have not posted a couple of other things that are going on my life, but if you could say a couple of extra prayers for a family member of mine and for some of my health issues, I would really appreciate it...I have more testing being done and I am sure it will be fine, and my family member just needs lots and lots of love right now.

Thanks in advance!

Definitely hugs and prayers! Congrats on the WOW moments. It's so nice when OTHER people, especially strangers notice the weight loss. In a sense... it makes you really believe it. :)
