| FARMVILLE LOVERS: This was posted on a friends site from Von Neely: Sung to the tune of M.J's "Beat It"
You got a dozen horses and you've got a green barn,
you got sixteen pigs all out spinning yard,
but they don't give you xp
so it's time to just farm:
Just seed it, just seed it.
You need fifty more neighbors just to grow out one more square,
you're makin' fifty thousand selling llama hair.
But it's just the higher levels for which you care
so seed it, just seed it -
bust out that spade and weed it!
Show them number one on all of the boards,
show them who's got shrubs shaped like a horse
and seed it, just seed it, seed it, seed it, seed it,
bust out that spade and weed it!
You've don't need scary pumpkins or UFOs,
you don't need pigs only good for their nose,
just seed it, seed it, seed it, seed it,
get a new yak and feed it.
Seed it seed it seed it seed it seed it. | | |
| Even though this day started out so incredibly challenging due to my skin, it ended up with some great things in it. I got up feeling like a zombie but it did improve. I am thankful God sent 2 people to come over this Thursday night and fellowship with me, sing songs, share God's word, and pray, and the person who called me doesn't even have a facebook and didn't know I was feeling isolated! Thank you Lord. Also, my night is special aside from that, do you know why? because my husband just told me I was a beautiful woman and he is glad he has had these past 20+ years with me. It was totally unprovoked, and then he made me a Greek pasta salad, which I am thoroughly enjoying at this very moment. This salad is better then any fresh cut bouquet or card. I am so incredibly blessed. | | |
| I have had 3 bad psoriasis flare ups today. The kind where I just want nothing else but to crawl out of my skin. One is happening now. I am stopping in between sentences to scratch. My arm extends to different areas so fast. Like swatting at mosquitos that aren't there. I am in tears. I rub my face a lot when it happens, especially my forehead. It's an automatic response. Whoah I just need to get through it. My heart is beating like crazy! and I just keep taking big breaths in between scratching and sobbing. Ya know? I was just thinking. I don't think anyone has ever witnessed me go through one of these other then Chuck, my Mom, and Paul when he was staying with us. If I am around someone and it starts I usually just try and go somewhere, hide, get home, whatever. I wish I could go sit in a nice hot jacuzzi. That just sounds like it would help. Sometimes it makes things worse. Unfortunately we don't have enough hot water to fill my tub, or I'd try that. I AM SO SICK OF TRYING THINGS!!!! I just want some relief. Sometimes I feel like I'm losing it, losing control, on the edge of who knows what, but it's scary when it's this bad. I know people can die from flare ups, not like I am going to. That won't happen to me.
My head hurts too now. It's throbbing. It's all part of the sequence of suffering. The hwole thing, It always subsides though, I always get through it, it always gets better.
off to try something else now.
SOME PEOPLE JUST HAVE NO CLUE. Here's your clue. Stress is a catalyst. You should always remember that. For all of those who have ever surmised, judged, not understood, wondered, didn't understand, thought I should be some way else, just plain forgot what I go through and how I am affected, thanks for nothing! I AM NOT A ROCK, I am vunerable, VERY, more then you will probably ever know, and I pray you will never have to experience this.

| They don't even have to buy it (although that is the goal) but it is sooooooo nice to have people come through and make great comments, and see it the way you once saw it when it was new and exciting, charming, full of character, beautiful land, lots of storage, yeah it may be 1 bathroom but everyone who has seen it has said "Wow, big bathroom. Bigger then the one we have now."
 ???????????
All the problems I have seen and consider eyesores, or stumbling blocks, others look at and like. THAT is awesome. So many things about THAT is awesome. It goes a long way...trust me. God has sent me renewal through all the buyers coming through our house these last 2 days. It seems everyone likes it. Which leaves me with a slight sense of "Okay, the other shoe is going to fall...any second now....."
I have much joy in shoving those thoughts out of my head with a mindful "Na ah!!" They said they liked it, they liked this, they liked that, and so on....
Do you think someone is sincerely interested in your house when they ask to climb up in both attics? and do it? and really like what they see?
Do you think someone is interested in your house when she gets in the car and says "Thank you so much for showing it to us!" "Now we just got to go home and make it happen!"
I have a tough time reading people's sincerity sometimes. I know when it comes to house hunting people can be whacky, and I expect it. Time will tell, but for right now, everyone who has looked at this place really likes it, and openly so. Thank you God. Thank you for the encouragement you have given me through these people. Even if we don't get an offer, I'll take the positive and run with it for now. Thank you sooooo much God!
OH! and.... One of the "surprise" rooms to get a lot of "oooooooo" and "awwwww I really like this" remarks? Of course everyone likes the living room, but guess which other one? You will never guess.....
THE MUD ROOM.
Go figure. I love THAT!
crazy.
Thanks for all the prayer, for all of those who have been praying. Thank you soooooo much. I needed this boost in the worst way. Please continue to pray, and I will keep you posted. Your prayers are working!

| I am so tired.
I just finished cleaning 2 houses and there is still more to do. We have been working so incredibly hard on them, getting them ready to show. I am wiped. My stomach hurts, more like my gut, and I feel dizzy and exhausted. My body is not cooperating any longer. We still have a list of things to do before 2:00pm tomorrow. We have had some set backs...like me using touch up paint that did not match the preexisting color on the wall, even though the can said it was for those particular rooms. Also, a woodpecker decided to put 7 nice holes into our wood siding. Six of them are quarter, to half dollar size, and bigger, RIGHT next to the front door! I am too tired to care right now and it's that tiny junk that drives me crazy. I so need to let it go, and just let God.
We are showing the house to 5 different parties in the next 3 days.
I wish I had kids. They'd be old enough to help by now, if I'd had any. LOL.
PLEASE be praying for us. God will do what He will do, but we want out of here bad. I would love for everyone who knows us, and cares about us, to please keep us in your prayers about selling this house quickly. It would be nice to come back on here, in a short time, and say the prayers of the saints aided in us selling our house. I would love to give that kind of praise to God. A testimony. I know God knows our hearts and we look for His direction, and He hears us. I just think it would be nice to say the prayers of His people aided in the goal. Can I get a "what what" from those of you who still believe prayer works?
If I sound desperate, it's because I feel that way 
I need to go eat and pass out now.
