MaryTurk's Journal

A dark color because I had a dark day. Thigns started out good because me and my husband "got along" well this morning. Well, how else am I suppose to say it. Then things started going down, Well, noy right away. I was reading John in the Bible because I like to start my day with listening to the Lord. Then things turned around. My daughter called because a bug had crawled into her ear. She started freaking over the phone when it came out. It's bad enough to have a bug fall out of your ear. But, you see, My daughter has a major fear of bugs in general. I could hear her screaming, but she couldn't hear me. We finally got it all worked out, and she has come to realize that even though Mom is somewhat handicaped, I can still help with the weird emergencies. We talked about how we expect our parents to be strong and to have a grip on the situation.  She has a one year old who was having problems because her Mom was screaming and crying and not herself. It was quite tramatic. I got the chance to thank her for taking care of me. We also talked about how other cultures are expected to take care of their elders. She wondered why it's not a part of our culture, I wonder this too.

So much more to say, but I'll save it for another day.

Love in Christ----hugs to all of you
