She has been feeling really bad for a while. The doctor found a 2.5 mm tumor, on her pituitary gland. He didn't seem upset about it. It seems to be easily treated, with medication. God is good. PLease continue praying for her recovery.

Jim is officially a celiac. Is that the way to say it? So, I am working to get the right foods, for him. Wow, that stuff isn't cheap. I was trying to eat the same foods, as he has to. Seemed to be a nice thing to support him. I have been baking bread. Trying out different recipes. So far, none are that great. Taste like bland crackers. I can't get the bread to be sandwich compatible. When the girls were little, we used to bake bread pretty often. Those were fun times.

Please pray for my peeps.

I am wearing 4 different painted tattoos: a tribal snake, a tribal arm band, a cool eagle, and a football. Go me.


sharon	I am so thankful that everyone knows what is wrong with themselves! Such a weird think to be thankful for, but I am. Did you check out that brand of food I told you about? I forgot what it was called.
marmee1965	I can't wait for you to paint on Bethany. She's gonna look so cool!
sjean	The bread is really toough since gluten is what makes dough stretch and puts the air (flufiness) in bread. Crackers usually are b etter.
joc	Hope Terra and Jim are on their way to feeling much better! Hope to see y'all next weekend.
terra	:) I think we will stay with yall at the larues . if that is ok

Woe ye stiff necked.

09-30-08 05:48pm CST

Chiropractors are great! I've been getting popped and zapped, for a couple of weeks. The ole neck has a twisted vertibrae. Alieve is wonderful. Buck-up Dianne. I can't stand whining!!

Made a trip to College Station and stocked up on Gluten Free flour, etc.. Maybe I will try to make homemade bread, tonight,hmmmm.

In keeping with the other family members, who say the sky is falling, oops, I mean the economy is crashing, a new project is developing. Wow, how is that for a run-on sentence?
I am planting an orchard. There will be pecan trees, a cherry tree, blueberries,and blackberries. I am planting strawberries, also, because I can.
The plants have been ordered and I await with bated breath.
Soil prep is beginning.

Zip never came home. Maybe I will steal Goliath or Piper.


carolattheriver	Hey, would you be willing to play on my team for the softball tournament?
sharon	^^Mom is doing the face painting.
the_gaffer	The Scope is in the cabinet under the bathroom sink.
theshorty	you came to college station and you didnt tell me?? sadness
sjean	Are you gluten intolerant? There are a lot more people who are than we thought.
theshorty	i am not sad. we will eventually see eachother.
jen	you know you'll be having some, ahem, company when those cherries are ripe for pickin! Holler if you need help with berry harvesting; I keep planning to take the kids to do that and we keep missing them... :( I wish I had room for an orchard! Yeah, the sky is 'falling' here too.... I feel your pain.
rhonda_pickard	Hey, you should have called me when you got to College Station and we could have gone to lunch or something!!!!
lindseyb	jonah really enjoyed looking at all the cars on your slideshow.
nontradish	One of my students told me his dad restored a '67 Mustang. Said it's blue. Awww... I used to dream of getting one someday, but I realize that the time commitment in upkeep would be big, and it's just not a priority anymore. But it's still nice to dream.
adamandjessesdad	Love that Cobra!
joc	Thanks for the BD wishes. I got to spend it with a group Bible Study meeting at the Montoyas. Nothing I would have rather done. Did you hear...Kyle Smith was baptized tonight.
hojo	I'm preparing for diaster as well. I started growing mint on my balcony.

Twilight Trailer Spoof

09-21-08 07:04am CST


nontradish	Yeah, this spoof is pretty good. The videos from BC really have me feeling sad. Do you know if Polly H. and Frances D. are OK?
nontradish	...and I just finished book #3.
kerrigan	that was hilarious. i'm so looking forward to the movie!
sjean	That was pretty good!
goastrider44	HAHAHAHA!
emmywoo	this spoof is an insult. lol
adamandjessesdad	I think that's Esther's restaurant on the Port Arthur side. We just ate there a few weeks ago for my mother's 80th birthday.
lavendargirl36	Enjoyed seeing you! Thanks for the pics. I love Centerville!
adamandjessesdad	My mother said several of the people at Stonegate who live in Bridge City had water in their houses... 3 feet, 6 feet, and 8 feet!
adamandjessesdad	Did you know that Jesse got a bike? (It's similar to this one, but a 2003 model with a salvage title... great deal.)
lavendargirl36	Me too!
adamandjessesdad	I just watched the video... "that Burger King guy really freaks me out" -- love it!
lavendargirl36	I posted pictures from our trip.
