Coco Oldham

New Family Member

Congratulations are definitely in order here, woo hoo!! As of late this afternoon, there is a new addition to the Oldham household.  We now have a precious baby girl, her name is Coco Oldham. She weighs six pounds, and is a chocolate colored jack russell, lab mix.  I am so beyond happy, and truly, madly, deeply, in love. Lovebug is too, he just has not admitted it yet. Will be posting a video of me and Coco tomorrow. She sends lots of kisses, and wags to all of you.

Doctor Visit

Well, today I had an appointment with the Doctor that takes care of my diabetes. She did some blood work, waiting on those results. She increased my insulin dose again.  She gave me two new medications. One is to help me sleep, and the other will hopefully help with my feet and legs. I see her nurse in one month, and see her again in three months. Hope all of you are doing well. Sorry I have not been around to your blogs for a few days. Plan on getting caught up tonight, and tomorrow. Eddie has decided to delete his blog, said he does not have enough time to spend on it. But, he wanted me to thank all of you that left comments, and those of you that became followers. That meant alot to him. Take care, and be happy.

Word-Filled Wednesday

The only reason I am in this world, is because of You dear Lord.  Without You, there is no me. Thanks for breathing life into me, over, and over again. I love You.

On Your Heart Tuesday

Hello sweet friends, hope all of you enjoyed a wonderful holiday weekend. What is on your heart today? Well, let me tell you what is laying upon my heart today. I know, we have all probably experienced this situation in our lives, at one time, or another. Someone, be it a friend, or family member, tells you something that they plan on doing for you, and they never do it.  I absolutely hate it when this happens. But, what truly bothers me, and very much hurts me, is when your in the hospital, and it happens. When I had my stroke, and was laying in intensive care for 11 days, I had quite a few visitors come to see me. I will forever be thankful, and appreciative for that. My family really made me feel loved, and cared for. Several of them, said things to me, that meant alot to me, touched my heart. They told me, that when I got home from the hospital, things were going to be different. They said, they would be coming to visit me, calling to check on me, ect. Four of them, said they were going to treat me to a day of pampering. They were going to take me, and buy me a wig, and let the people there fix it really nice for me. Also, they were going to take me, and let someone fix my makeup, and eyebrows, buy me a new outfit, and take me out to eat. Woo Hoo!! Well, in June, I have been home 9 months now. I never hear from anyone, no one calls, or comes to see me. As for a day of pampering, never happened. I am not upset because they did not take me out, and pamper me. Truthfully, I would not want them to spend money doing all of that for me. But, what hurts so much, is that they never even visit. I long for conversation, and companionship. I would love to go for a walk with them, or out to eat. I just want to feel loved, like I did when I was in the hospital. Friends, please be careful with your words. I beg you, do not say things, and then not see them through. Do not be guilty of saying things, just to make someone feel good at that moment. Keep your word, do what you say. It is so important. Praise God, He always keeps His word to me. Thank You Father, I love, and appreciate You.

Happy Memorial Day

I truly appreciate all of those men and women, who have served our country, and those that continue to serve our country. Thank you for being willing, to lay your lives on the line to keep us safe. I will never forget your efforts on our behalf, blessings and love to you all.

God's Love

And we have known, and believed, the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love, dwelleth in God, and God in him. (1 John 4:16 KJV) Are you like me, my friend? Does it seem like you have spent most of your life looking for love? Not the marriage kind of love, not the family kind of love, and not the friendship kind of love, but, the deep down soul reaching, heart exploding kind of love?? Duh, we have had that precious kind of love all along my friends. The love of God, there is no other kind of love, as special as that is.  God is love, and love is God. So, if you have God living within you, you have a deep abiding love living within you. So, you need look no further, than within yourself my friend. How awesome is that??  Prayer: Dear Lord, Thank You for being the love of my life, now, and forever. You decorate my heart with the beautiful colors of Your love, I am greatly blessed, to be loved by You. Amen
