Surely We Should Pray for Shirley

I'm always amazed when I find out someone is actually reading this blog. I know I have a few friends that check in regularly (get a life), but since there are seldom any comments, I forget that I'm not just rambling to myself most of the time.

One such surprise came the other night. I was talking on the phone to my BFF Shirley in Illinois. She mentioned reading my blog! I know I can e-mail her at work, but she can't open pictures and if I send them to her home computer she never looks at it because she doesn't get on the computer much at home. So I never dreamed she was keeping up with me. I was delighted to hear this and we talked about some of the recent posts. Then she said, "Yes, I read it. Prayers for this person and that one, but no prayers for me...even though I've been sick for 3 weeks now!"

So let's all pray that Shirley's antibiotics kick in now that she's seen fit to go to a doctor and get some. And while we're at it, let's mention her failing (with age) eyesight. And please, Lord, if it's not too much to ask: could you do something about the hair?

Amen.

Is that picture from "Uncle Don's Dude Ranch?" My mother is going to die when she sees it!

I'm also praying she has a sense of humor!!

Prayers won't help on this one. The Thompson B&B is being renovated in July so all prior reservations are cancelled. Like Ken said be careful what you ask for. Tiffany called me last night at 9:50 p.m laughing and said wait until you see what JB put on her blog. I couldn't wait to come in today to see it. What are BFF friends for anyway??? Humiliation
