I am hoping to hear from the dermatologist today or tomorrow. It has been two weeks and if I need MohS surgery, I’d like to know how to plan!
💚💚How I am feeling💚💚
I am pretty excited that I got along very well in Williamsburg. I was able to walk as much as I wanted to. I did not stroll all the way down Duke of Gloucester street, but I strolled a bit around the retail area. We enjoyed the Scottish store, but whoa, the prices were very much elevated since last time. Last time I purchased a gorgeous wool tartan cape in my pattern, Lindsay, this time a scarf cost as much. We did not spend anything there. On Saturday I really wanted to dine at one of the taverns, but Chownings had no dedicated parking lot. It was a bit if a trek from a parking lot off the historic area to the tavern. But I made it fairly simply, much to my dismay to find out we were told to come back in 2 hours because of the large crowds. With the horrific winds we decided to just find a nice restaurant for dinner. But I was pretty excited that my walking has improved!
💚💚On the breakfast plate💚💚
Coffee, fruited yogurt and a powder donut.
💚💚On my reading pile💚💚
We are studying the book of Exodus in Church, The Core Group is studying Ephesians, which I love!!! I am taking a Hermeneutics class on how to study the Bible! Lynn and I are doing a read through the Bible in a year systematic read .. one selection from both Old and New Testament!
💚💚On my tv💚💚
Various vlogs , HGTV programming, and Hallmark movies. I am enjoying When Calls the Heart.
💚💚Interesting youtube vlog I saw this week: 💚💚
💚💚Looking around the house💚💚
Last week we got the hallway painted and then did quite a bit of considering, The den is next and last. As I have stated before one wall is a complete built in.
The window seat is over the radiator. The screen over the radiator does not allow enough heat into the room on really cold nights so we are trying to figure out how to improve the mechanics of the seating . We did find gratings at Home Depot and Lynn is wanting to be absolutely sure how to best work them into the whole seat assembly. When that part has been accomplished then the whole wooden construction of bookcase, seat, and facing will be painted Behr’s Winter in Paris. The woodwork will be painted a softer white, and the walls will be painted Antique White. At this time the book case has been emptied and the next thing to be done is to strip the wall paper border from the top of the walls below the crown molding. This room is going to take a W-h-i l-e!
Might I add this little tidbit, we both returned from our Weekend in Williamsburg with colds. Please pray they are colds! Lynn is feeling pretty bad!
💚💚On my to-do list💚💚
- Devotions and Bible reading
- marketing
- Start feeling better
- Start work on the den
- Cancel ourdental appt for tomorrow
- Do a lot of praying
- 💚💚To relax I will:💚💚
Listen to music and doze a bit.
💚💚Prayer and devotional :💚💚
Our government leaders to seek God, stop the politics during this terrible time during the Ukraine war. Der God, please send common sense to our government to know how to respond in so many areas and keep us our of this escalating war! Chiefly Father, turn the minds of our leaders to decide to deny Russia of anymore payment of gas and oil and begin refining our own reserves here on our own soil! We are hearing of many ways to safely send funds to working getting food and supplies to the refugees. May many here be led too participate in that effort! May for the fear of the Lord to spread among all people.
Father, be with the Ukrainians during this upheaval and build up their resolve to remain strong and dependent on you to lead them! Even though this seems impossible, Lord, with you all things are possible!!!Father, speak into the heart of Vladimir Putin, that he might relent from this debacle he is perpetrating on the innocent nation of Ukraine. May calm and sensibility reign in the minds of all Russian leaders. Even as peace talks seem to be taking place we pray that in truth Putin is ready for cease fire and chooses wisely to withdraw!
Prayer about the influx of illegals into our nation, as the covid ban on immigration comes to an end, we Peary that something can be done to quell the invasion of many at our border seeking entrance. and the possible spread of disease and covid.. Father, we rebuke the spread of covid and its attaching deviants.. even with this last new strain, w3 pray that it is such a weak one that when it attacks a body it will be more cold like and easily overcome. InJesus name!! And Father even as I had written the above we do thank you for the apparent ceasing of mandates and pray that is due to a dramatic decline in the spread of covid! May it dissipate completely in Jesus name!!!
We pray for the places everywhere that persecution is taking place...
For healing of the sick,
salvation of the lost,
deliverance for the hurting,
the supply, food, and building shortage problem: may it not become
a huge crisis We say NO to the drear outlook some are reporting about our supply and the inflation ..
I am thinking now if the dire reports from farmers not only here but around the world. With the high cost of fuel farmers struggle to be able to produce as usual, plus fertilizer is scarce. This could create a worldwide food shortage worse than anything we have ever seen because of the hug3 population ..much more than during the Depression!
Oh, Father, this is such a dire possibility it truly makes one wonder if we are facing the end of. the end times. You told us in your word in Matthew 24 there would be wars, earthquakes, pestilences, starvation, diseases if many kinds. Besides that world events centered about Israel are aligned as well. Oh, Father, if the end of the end times is coming upon us, we pray for the lost
We pray for the church to awaken and be about your work in the world to save as many as will be saved according to your will!
We know that it is satan who comes to rob, steal, and destroy and we, by the power of Jesus name, say STOP NOW, You may not have the resources of the people.We also pray for godly wisdom to overtake our leaders that they will deal with the world circumstances with the USA's best interest in mind.
Churches to arise and pastors to preach according to our times and
these days.. very vital! For the churches to repent and get straight
before a holy God. We have become too lax in our Christianity and
we need to be more persistent to seeking God and His Word! Lord, prepare your people to be ever minded that our work here is to lead others to Christ. Too often we fail to do this, I pray for opportunity and
the will to do your will in Jesus name!!

Tuesday 4
Which One?
Which one do you prefer?
1. Picnic by the water or backyard BBQ? I love a picnic by the lake!
2. Spring or Autumn? Got reasons?
This one is hard because I love them both.. reasons
- it isn't hot, but mild and wonderful
- we get to keep the upstairs windows open at night
- the colors are magnificent
- both make me very contemplative, and I love writing in my journal
- they each had their own special outside activities that make me smile
3. Cup of Tea or Cup of Coffee? 'splain it to us Lucy... if you don't mind! I love tea, but there is nothing better than that first cup of coffee in the morning. Tea is for sharing with a friend, usually served with something delicious, or served with a wonderful book. Coffee puts a zing in my step and helps set the mood for the day!
4. A weekend at home or one spent out and about?I love a weekend out and about. They come all too rarely these days.. But something special is coming up this weekend!Our 50th Anniversary!

My responses to the Comments
I am so sorry my system will not allow me to comment on posts. I have tried everything I know to do to fix this but it just doesn’t work. So I do desire to respond to your very uplifting comments.
Sue and Faith, We could not be happier in our new church. Our pastor is so wonderful. He really cares for each person who walks in the door. He greeted us on our first day, and his caring personally was so evident. I was going through my gall bladder problem at the time and I felt perfectly at ease speaking to him about it and he prayed with me and was faithful to follow up. We joined about a month ago and we really feel we have found a precious family there. We are blessed.
Wendy, Joy, Suzanne, Linda, Karen, Jean, Monique, Luludou, and Kirstin,interestingly last fall through the terrible time of my gall bladder problem that continued for 2 months, I thought a lot about this home project. It helped give me a focus and something to look forward to. It all started watching the Christmas hallmark movies which I love. I was taken by the beautiful homes which to me were as meaningful as the players. I noticed so very many of them had a lot of rooms that were painted a very light blue and I fell in love. Thus the idea of painting the downstairs was birthed. Interest ly, it took me probably a month to pick the right blue because it was very light. I finally chose Behr’s Era which is very light blue in the morning, but as the day wears on becomes richer and richer and I love it!So we started painting around Valentine’s Day and so far we have finished the living room, dining room, kitchen and the walls of the hall. The hall has 5 doorways but 3 doors. That is going to hang up the flow of painting. The last room is the den. We are introducing a new color there. We have a wall of bookcases surrounding a double hung window and window seat over the radiator. I am very excited about the color we chose!But the den will be the most difficult room, wall paper border, and figuring out how to disassemble the radiator cover to make a much more efficient screen for allowing heat to escape. But I am thrilled to be this far along!
Dear friends, I appreciate so much your words of concern and comfort for me. Yes, Remarkably, I have had seemingly one thing after another since lockdown. My take on this is I’m undergoing spiritual warfare. I am a prayer warrior. I say this because Lynn and I have met just about every week to pray with an amazing prayer team. I also attend weekly a Bible Study on the Minor Prophets as we study what to expect during the “last days”. My study leader and prayer leader is one in the same an amazing missionary who just returned from a 2 week trip to the Congo where he was encouraging the pastors there. But he is also our weekly prayer leader for Intercessors for America group. There we pray for our communities, our nation, the church, schools, our leaders, the world situation our culture, etc. When all my strange ailments became so rampant he told me Satan was afraid of the woman you are becoming! His wife, Nita, is the same ..has one thing right after another, but we cannot allow it to take us down. I know God is with me and will see me through or take me home. But as I remain He is preparing me for more he has for me. I truly believe this and so I can persevere to look forward to the day!
I love blogging, and getting to know you dear ladies. It is my favorite outlet. Blessings to you all, love Carolyn

Friday's Fave Five
Hosted by Susanne
Welcome to another Friday and another opportunity take note of the blessings that God has sent us over the past week.
💜💜What a week. I did call last week to see if I could get an appointment with the dermatologist who has helped me with known skin cancers.. He saw me Tuesday, he biopsied the spot and now I wait to hear back. He will call me back for MOh's no matter what type it is, and then send me to UVA for reconstructive surgery. I might hear back from him today! (Nope, I called and they are closed on Friday) I am grateful to have such a great doctor with whom I can feel completely at ease for such scary treatments.
💜💜This morning we awakened to knowledge we have 3/5 of the downstairs repainted and completed.
THIS ONE DESERVES AT LEAST 2 LISTINGS SO THIS WEEK WE DO 4!
The Living R00m
DINING ROOM
KITCHEN
ORIGINAL COLOR NEW COLOR
THERE YOU CAN SEE THE HALL .. LYNN IS THERE WORKING NOW.. HE WILL PAINT IT ONE OF THE COLORS USED PREVIOUSLY, AND THE 3 DOORS WILL ALSO BE PAINTED off white!
💜💜All last week and this, I have suffered from an eye staff infection.. I had thought it was allergy eyes, they were so weepy, but after three doctors, the ophthalmologist finally saw me and he diagnosed and prescribed what I needed. But the medication is so greasy I can hardly see even to type today. This was brought on mainly from extremely dry eyes.... another yucky complaint for being over 70! But I am thankful to have turned the corner with this and now I know to use my drops when ever problems arise or more often really. I'm trying to get acclimated to it!
💜💜 Before my nose situation arose, I had been looking all over the internet for a romantic venue - long weekend- for Lynn and I to go to celebrate our 50th anniversary, coming up next weekend. I had finally decided on Williamsburg. We hadn't been there in several years and it is so beautiful in the spring. I had almost gotten reservations at a wonderful Embassy Suites there... then the nose thing raised it's little head! So now I am on hold waiting to hear and expecting to have to make a 3 day trek to Charlottesville in the coming days......Glory be! Lynn told me to go ahead and set up the reservation and fix it so it can be refundable.. Ain't he sweet!!! Thank you, LORD!

Wednesday Hodge Podge
I did quite a bit in college.. Did my major paper on Antony and Cleopatra! I did well on it then but have no idea what I wrote today!
I prefer the comedies, my favorite is As You like It!
How do you feel about a Caesar salad? It is my salad of choice when dining out!
2. Have you ever been to Rome? If so what do you love about the city? If not, any desire to go?I have not been to Rome, and actually, it is not on my list!
3. What's your favorite place to 'roam'? I love the countryside. I love to drive around on unknown roads just to see where they take us. If I went to England I much prefer the countryside to any major city! I am looking so forward to our Scotland trip this summer. And we are sticking mainly to the lesser known areas.
4. Do you like pizza? I do to some degree..Thick or thin crust? I prefer thin crust.Red sauce-white sauce-other? Red sauce!Your favorite toppings? I love onions, bell pepper, but not green, bacon or ham. I love lots of cheese, but I do not like very hot and spicy toppings!How do you feel about pineapple on a pizza? Not for me!
5. 'Rome wasn't built in a day'...tell us how this expression applies to something in your home-life-job currently (or recently)? Well, our home refresh, definitely. All last fall I dreamed of the new year. We would paint the living room, buy a few new pieces, then move on to the dining room .. the same color. Then we came to the kitchen. This room has been a struggle. Our cabinets were painted in 2005 when we did a sort of remodel. We put in granite, bought new appliances and we put new cabinet doors on our nice but plain solid wood units. a few units had to be restructured to fit the overall look and we had the opposite wall done with a granite desk area for my computer and upper and lower cabinets made to finish the project. The wall color and border stayed the same. Well, I chose colors that Behr paint said went well with Rolling Pebble our cabinets. And we bought a gallon of the wall paint , but it just didn't work. After one coat we could tell it was just too close to the crown moulding white and looked sickly.All wasn't lost because we needed a second coat of paint to cover that deep red. So we went a few shades darker. And one thing about using the computer to check the color, it looked much darker online than it does on the wall but I like it. It looks like a coffee latte color which goes well in a kitchen! And it looks well with the granite! The paint is finished now except Lynn wants to go back and touch up a couple places tomorrow. I am anxious to hang the artwork and some English transfer ware plates.I am especially looking forward to reclaiming my dining room table. But that isn't all!
Next we have to paint the small square hall in the middle of the house. It would be easy, except there are three doors, plus 2 more entrances with moulding so that will take at least two or three weeks, Mainly because I had my biopsy on my nose yesterday and I expect to be going to UVA for corrective surgery following my MOH's in Charlottesville, perhaps next week!
Then, we have the den to paint. That room has a whole wall of bookshelves which re now painted white, but I have picked Winter in Paris as my paint color!
We do have wall paper border in there around the ceiling so I cannot help with that! I had originally thought we could get this all done in about 6 weeks. I think it will probably owe twice that long! Sigh!
6. Insert your own random thought here.
Nothing left to say! Except be blessed and have a great St. Paddy's Day!!

💚💚How I am feeling💚💚
We had to get out early today to follow up on an eye situation
I have been dealing with. I have very dry eyes which developed into an infection on the inside of my eye lids! ouch! Thankfully, I got a good report, but my eyes still are watery as they are compensating for dry eye. Goodness! So I have to hydrate my eyes several times a day to stop the watering! What else , Lord! I am thankful this isn’t serious or life threatening, but just another thing on my todo list to bring my body back into shape.
Meanwhile, my exercises are working and I am standing up straighter today! So pleased about that! Tomorrow morning we will be in Charlottesville for my skin check. He will take a biopsy and then give me a plan for further medical care and correction. Then I will better be able to establish my next rounds of therapy to strengthen my body!I am just so thankful for help in these areas and especially thankful for good insurance!
💚💚On the breakfast plate💚💚
Coffee, fruited yogurt and a donut. Mid morning I had a biscuit with gravy and an egg .

Lynn and I are doing a read through the Bible in a year systematic read provided by the Allen Jackson Ministries!You can download the app there to get the Bible schedule. BTW, if you aren't currently going to church, I absolutely recommend watching Allen Jackson, (Not the country singer) He is so wonderful!!! Very passionate and exceptionally knowledgable. Lynn and I listen to him every week!

💚💚Looking around the house💚💚
We are pretty close to having the kitchen finished. Of course, we have had several interruptions, The wall paint I chose is just not deep enough of a color to contrast with white trim and shutters, we have removed the border, and cleaned the walls, and painted the first coat which was good coverage over that deep red. So now Lynn has to stop by Home Depot and get a gallon of Antique White for the second coat. Hopefully he can trim out the walls this evening and roll the walls tomorrow after our trip up the valley. We just don’t know what the rest of the week has in store for us!
💚💚On my to-do list💚💚
- Devotions and Bible reading
- marketing

- paint the walls and put the kitchen back together
- See Eye Doctor
- see the Dermatologist
- Do a lot of praying
- 💚💚To relax I will:💚💚

Update!
PS the kitchen painting is finished ;we are just waiting for it to dry then tomorrow we can move everything back in. Also, this morning very early we drove to Charlottesville two and 1/2 hours away. Got my biopsy and then shopped a bit then drove home . I bought a beautiful blue throw for the sofa and new linens for the bathroom. I was exhausted. Dear Lynn finished the painting. He had already cut in around the edges and only had the rolling to do today. And I now wait to find out what happens next. Around the house, the downstairs hall is next. It will be blue with off white trim!

Friday Fave Five
Hosted by Susanne
Welcome to another Friday and another opportunity take note of the blessings that God has sent us over the past week.
💚💚I began the week with a self realization that alas, the rough places on my nose were yet again another skin cancer not un- like the ones that required corrective surgery at UVA . So I called my wonderful dermatologist in Charlottesville and got an appt for this coming week. He will then do a biopsy and then depending on the report set me up for an appt to give me MOHS surgery then send me to UVA for plastic surgery. I Praise God that He is with me. Early in the week, at the thought of this I cried But His Spirit has comforted me and I am feeling a calm and a bravery to face it knowing I am not alone! Ive been here twice before!
💚💚 I am so thankful that Lynn has persevered through preparing the kitchen for painting. It has taken time, but goodness, he has so much on him!
So the caulking and taping up around the many areas that needed taping. There is a bit of millwork around this small kitchen!
Hopefully he will actually open the paint can today and begin. I am thinking this room will need two coats as seen below, You will know why!
We are painting all the red with bleached linen... so the green tape should make painting a bit easier and faster, as well!! but don't you think 2 coats, as well?
💚💚I started my gyne-uro therapy today. Much of the exercises are similar to what I am doing in my physical therapy to strengthen my back, pelvic floor, hips and legs. Old age is not fun... and after all the issues that have stricken my poor body over the pandemic, I am very much out of shape and in a weakened state. I have wonderful professionals working with me and I am truly blessed!!
💚💚I am so thrilled that we are making friends very quickly at our new church. In these trying times it means so much to have good Christian friends to share with and lift one another up especially in prayer! I joined the prayer team and it is a very vibrant group and people really depend on the goodness of God through prayer which I think is marvelous! Other churches we have been part of didn't give prayer much thought!!!
💚💚Lynn is reaching out right now with a donation to aid the people of Ukraine. I am sure no one ever thought we would be facing such a thing just two weeks ago. and for the poor Ukrainians, our hearts go out to them. I hope many many Americans are doing all they can to send help for these people. I mean 2.3 million refugees have fled the country in a two week time frame. And how horrible to have to leave their men folk behind. Please pray for the people and for leadership of all nations to find ways to give hope and help to this situation. I know one way I have prayed the US would undertake but unfortunately it has not been addressed. it is a pet political thing. Oh, I pray common sense and and concern for all will reign in the hearts of minds of all of ur leaders!

💚💚On my mind💚💚
Well, as my life suddenly is sort of running out of control, I await yet another visit to my dermatologist near UVA who will do a biopsy on the whole side of my nose. I had 2 biopsies so far on my nose previously which required reconstructive surgery at UVA the following days. This meant the wearing of huge bandages and scaring for the next several weeks. This comes at such a busy time
I am in the midst of therapy for my legs and back, followed by urology therapy, and then my 50th wedding anniversary is in 3 weeks, and 3 other important appointments I should not miss. My mind is in a swirling mist of multiple emotions. I just cancelled my therapies for next week anyway hoping I can have the biopsy and the reconstruct next week. That would hugely simplify some things!
Here I am in 2017 after one of my events!
💚💚How I am feeling💚💚
I am so enjoying my therapy. Doing my back exercises work out so well there, but not so well doing them on my bed and I simply cant get down on the floor. So I feel great until the weekend and yesterday and today my lower back is so stiff and sore it is so hard to walk correctly. Now with having to cancel a couple of therapies I am sort of downcast!!
💚💚On the breakfast plate💚💚
Coffee, buttered boiled egg, and toast of jelly. Hubs is trying so hard to treat me so sweetly.
💚💚On my reading pile💚💚
We are also studying the book of Exodus, The Core Group is starting Ephesians, which I love!!! I am taking a Hermeneutics class on how to study the Bible! Lynn and I are doing a read through the Bible in a year systematic read provided by the Allen Jackson Ministries!You can download the app there to get the Bible schedule.

Not exactly a vlog but a site where I find wonderful videos about an American girl who married an English viscount and suddenly became a Viscountess and owner of the gorgeous castle, Mapperton in England. She is very popular in the UK and even has her own show on the Smithsonian Channel. This is her site. From there you can find many vlogs!
