A Quick Update and Giveaway Winners!

First let me share a quick follow-up note from yesterday's post regarding my Dad's doctor visit. His EKG showed that his heart is strong enough for the more powerful chemo meds and he was able to take a treatment today. That is good news. The bad news --- stronger chemo meds mean life threatening side effects. Moreover, the oncologist reports we can only hope for partial remission with this treatment. So my dad finds himself in a situation where the treatment is worse than the disease. You know what? Our faith does not rest in the oncologists hands, or the chemo, or any other treatment that is deemed necessary. Our faith rests in the knowledge that Dad is in the hand's of the Great Physician. We boldly stand before His throne and ask for healing. The wonderful thing is, He will heal. It may not be an earthly physical healing, it may be a spiritual eternal healing, but peace is ours because it is a complete win-win healing. However, even with the peace I have, I ask you to pray for my mental and physical health as we begin a different phase with this disease. I need to be stable and strong to help my parents through this time. Pray for mild side effects for my Dad. Pray for my Mom's physical strength to remain intact. Thanks friends! You mean so much to me.

Okay, stop crying! Now is the time for the fun part of blogging! Giveaway!

I used my sophisticated random generator to create a list and assign numbers. Notebook paper and ink pen. You work with what you have folks!

Numbers were placed in Oscar's doggie bowl which I then placed on my bed for whatever reason. Do you like my comforter by the way?




On command, Oscar drew two random numbers.

My walls are not lime green, they just look like in these photos.


That trick was nothing folks --- really!


Oh goodness that is shocking green! I promise it does not really look like that!

Also, pardon my atrocious handwriting. That is why I type most everything.



Lucky #13 for the faux pearl necklace matched.........Lady Jane's Emporium!

Lucky #6 for the apron matched.......Snow White!

Congratulations ladies! An e-mail is coming your way!

Thanks for praying, playing and reading, Rosie.

Love that Oscar...such a flirt, knowing he picked the lucky #s!

Don't decry your lime green walls...I have a brighter hue in my bedroom, painted to match an Avon bottle many, many years ago. I think mine may glow in the dark, but I've kept that color ever since...it also matched a painting a friend had given me.

Your family is in our prayers...be strong in the Lord!

Merry Sunshine
