Prayer List and To Do List

There are lots of people I know that are going through things right now and just need an extra prayer sent up for them. My sisters-in-law are both going through rough times. Nan's maw-maw is having colon cancer surgery today. I think she'll be 86 or 87 in February. Nan's a very funny person and so much fun to be around, but comes to tears at the mention of her maw-maw's cancer. Please pray for her.


Then there's my other sister-in-law, Sherry. Her mom is in the hospital with pneumonia. I'm not sure how old she is, but I think she must be in her 70s. Sherry's the only daughter in her family and so she's really carrying a heavy burden right now and needs lots of prayer too.


Jeff's brother, Mike, is in the hospital. Something's going on with his liver. He's not married and his son, Kyle and grandson, Jack, live in New York. Jeff's brother, Don, who passed away in 2006 died of liver problems, so naturally, Ed & Jean are really, really worried that the same thing is going on with Mike. Pray for Mike and Ed & Jean too.


People are losing their jobs left and right. Some who are able to keep their jobs are having their hours cut or losing their benefits or having to pay more for their benefits to keep them. These are tough times. My online friend, Joyce, whose blog you can follow from mine, is facing an interesting problem in May. Here in Georgia, especially where I live, we don't have issues with bridge closures causing us to temporarily relocate. I guess down on the coast, it's a possibility, But in the northwest, it seems they do. Read her blog and pray for a solution to her problem.


These are just a few things. I'm sure there are so many more. Just wanted to take the focus off me for a moment and ask y'all to pray for my family and friends.


Now, back to me. Just a regular Monday. I think I might fix supper tonight. (jaws drop). Don't know what to fix though. Maybe I'll check out Joyce's family recipes and see what looks good. I'm gonna have to go to the grocery store no matter what because I have no ingredients to make anything. We're even out of cereal.


Trying to get some work done today too. I've got quite a lot to do. I just have the hardest time focusing to get it done. Working at home is so hard. It's up and down, up and down to do this or that. This nap or that nap, eat this or eat that, you know what I mean. I've had the same To Do List hanging in my office since New Year's Eve. Nothing new has been crossed off of it either. I think I'm gonna snatch it down right now. Snatch. It's gone. That space sure looks empty. Guess I'll have to make another . . . Is it a bad thing when you use a To Do List as a wall decoration instead of the organizational tool it was designed to be???
