Circle of Life

I want to say hello to all the wonderful people at AP!
I finally got a computer - dial up till Wednesday - then DSL

You are my family and I have missed you so much. We need to stop
and think once in a while about what is important in our lives.
No man is an island and all that - so true. We need each other for
love and support.
Anyone needing prayer, be sure to let me know.

My life needs a prayer too. Have been ill and in and out of ER...

Yesterday I needed medication that costs dearly, so now am without
a sheckel to my name.
I am going to ask a favor and I think it is something we all might
be able to do...

I come begging for bucks. If anyone has 2 dollars they could send
it would help keep the wolf from my door... oops, I AM the wolf! But you
know what I mean.

My thought was, since this world is so difficult we might help each
other by giving a small amount each for someone in need. I will gladly do this for others next month. Just, please, really have need if you ask.

I think it is time to consider some kind of swap program... maybe those with children could swap children's clothes - and it would even work for the big people.
So much is wasted in this world. I would love a book exchange, or movie exchange. A person could offer almost anything and ask for what they need.

Hopefully our next president will bring this economy under control, but until then, maybe we can help each other survive.
It took a silly thing to bring to my attention how much prices are spiraling. I bought clam dip - it is usually $1.29, or even sometimes on special for 99cents - well, now it is $2.00 and that is on a special.
The stores have almost no real good buys and everything goes up every week.
But together we can have a circle of love to help each other.

God bless you all!!!

Love, Wolfie

Please tell me what you think

    I Know What You Mean!

    When my Home Health Aide comes back from the grocery store for me each week I see another commodity price increase! The price has either gone up or the store doesn't have what I want! And this is all just the tip of the iceberg! Glad you got DSL. I was functioning with 'free' AOL dial up for a few years [it was awful] & when I found out that I could get DSL for a reasonably small amount I hopped on it. It's the low end side of DSL, but it gives me access to my Church Web Site & I download a lot of Sermons & it's a life line for me as I've not been able to get to Services now for a couple of months. You'll be hearing from my Sherry! Do hope you'll be faring better soon & that you get the Meds you need!

    HI

    How well do I know the feeling about the medicin. I am also a granny, at 48, on disability. Please ask your dr. for samples of your meds, and sign up for the free medicine program. I have been in the medical field for over 2o yrs, and know soooo many tricks of the trade. You can mail me anytime for prayer, or questions about free programs. Also, do you buy your meds at WAL MART? It's only 4 dollars for generic drugs.
    GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS

    Excellent!

    I know exactly what you mean! Right now I'm in the Dominican Republic, a third world country and I got to see poverty at its maximum expression. But hang in there! The darkest hour is always before the dawn...
