Smiling is the very best thing to do, and you do have a beautiful smile!! <br /><br />Hang in there sweet friend!!<br /><br />Hugs,<br />BarbBarbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158897469583069249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-856115860459514900.post-34243902199840121502012-07-17T16:36:16.528-05:002012-07-17T16:36:16.528-05:00The 'P' word.

Sounds like you've figured that out and are moving on. I am thinking of you and the "thing" you asked us to be in prayer for.

BUT--I had to learn that if I gave a 'job' (volunteer) to someone else, that I'd HAVE to back off, let them do it (even though I may have done it differently), and appreciate the job that they did....<br /><br />We are not perfect ---but sometimes, we think we are.. OR --at least we seem to have to have that control... <br /><br />My good friend has a large family and several grandchildren. She has the 'need' to continually be the Matriarch ---and be in charge or in control of EVERYONE... She needs to let that go, enjoy her retirement --and let her adult children live their own lives..... <br /><br />Good Luck.. It's not easy.<br />Hugs,<br />BetsyBetsy Banks Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223591156634767330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-856115860459514900.post-10637023939431472902012-07-17T09:58:29.616-05:002012-07-17T09:58:29.616-05:00Shut,
