Johanne's Journal, 20 August 2015

The ridiculous annoyances are continuing. I feel like fate is smacking me up the back of the head over and over again . . . wap, wap, wap! The latest is my microwave making Frankenstein noises and shooting flames at me. I make all of my meals in the crockpot and put them up in serving sizes in the freezer. A microwave isn't a necessity, but life is certainly easier with one. I can't afford to replace any of these things that are dying on me. I have given every single, extra penny to my special-needs daughter to bail her out of scrapes ($900 since May from the sale of a loom). She is my other main source of stress. Wap, wap, wap! It's no excuse for losing control. I just don't seem to have the strength to follow through. At least, I'm not gaining. Rant over. I will live through it. Love you all!

oops sorry I was responding to another post about my muscle comment. On another note: Sorry to hear about your daughter issues. I have a 19 year old who I help out as well. Love those kids the good and the bad.

Hang in there. I know -- sounds stupid and banal. But we really have no choice but to put one foot in front of the other and go forward. Sending positive thoughts.

You are a wonderful caring person who deserves some good fortune. Good rant is healthy. Hoping those waps go away.

I have the best buddies on FS! Thank you all. Part of this slump is mind-set. I really need to work on mine. Another thing that is praying on my mind is our good friend Stef. We need to keep her in our prayers. It's funny how close we get to some of our virtual friends. We need to remember, each day, how much we mean to each other, even if we never get to meet in real life. Hugs!

I am so glad you mentioned Stef. It breaks my heart to know what she is going through but her faith is seeing her through it all. You are right about our virtual friends. They are all I have ... now that I think about it. My old friends and I have grown apart ... plus I moved away. It's nice living out here with my hubby, but could I do it without him? You guys are as real to me as if you were my neighbors. I care about you all, too. BIG HUGS BONNIE! I love ya!

Don't let anyone tell you you can't make "real" friend on FS or FB. I have formed several deep and meaningful friendships through FS and FB and have sustained other friendships that would have fallen by the wayside without the virtual world. I am so, so grateful for all of you.

Sometimes it's one thing after another isn't it? I've had times recently where I want to hide under my covers! I hope good things happen for you soon because you so deserve it. Sending good thoughts your way.
