“Beth, please go on your blog and ask for prayer for a young lady at Mainstream. Her name is Angel. She was seriously injured this morning in a car accident going to work. She has a broken collarbone, tailbone and pelvis. Also a severe cut in the groin area and numerous other cuts. She has two small boys and is a single mother without insurance. So if you will just ask them to pray that an angel will be with Angel.” THANK you all for your kind thoughts and prayers for Angel.
This is my Don Williams Ian. Is it the same as yours? My friend Ian from Australia asked me to post this video so he could determine if it is the same Don Williams he has seen in concert.
I am heading off for the grocery stores in a few minutes. I hope you all have a great day.
I started my Christmas shopping yesterday. My daughter and I went to Kohls in East Peoria where I managed to spend a big chunk. That did include a new winter coat for me and several Christmas presents. Then afterwards we ate at the China Buffet. It was not bad as there was a lot of American food there. I don’t like Chinese food as it seems to me that there is cabbage in everything. Lots of different desserts too. You should remember as I am telling you about these places we eat at that I only eat one plateful of food. Otherwise I wouldn’t be able to waddle. 
A friend of my daughter got tickets for us and we are going to see Don Williams Sunday night at the Peoria Civic Center. Most of you have probably never heard of him. He is a classic country artist who ranks right there with George Jones and Johnny Cash. Williams is best known for his # 1 hit You’re My Best Friend. I love that song.
“You placed gold on my finger
You brought love like I've never known
You gave life to our children
And to me, a reason to go on.
Chorus:
You're my bread when I'm hungry
You're my shelter from troubled winds
You're my anchor in life's ocean
But most of all, you're my best friend.
When I need hope and inspiration
You're always strong when I'm tired and weak.
I could search this whole world over
You'd still be everything that I need.”
I am doing laundry this morning. I have one load finished and one in the dryer. I am planning to go to visit my sister’s grave today and put some flowers in her vase. Her birthday is November 5. Then I have to go by the pharmacy and pick up some prescriptions so it will be a busy morning.
Stay safe and be happy.
| I had 3 trick or treaters between 5 and 7PM last night. I just found out from my daughter that most of the churches in town had set up tail-gates to give out candy to the costumed children. I did get to see my great niece. She was adorable but she is like a little bolt of lightning at 18 months. This is the best pic I could get of her as she was somersaulting and going non stop all of the time. To complete her costume she had red glittery shoes but she didn’t stand still long enough for me to get a picture of them.
