Hi all -
I’ve been missing in action trying to recover from my battle with anaplasmosis and sepsis. I’ve been out of the hospital for 10 days and still very weak. Went to my doc yesterday and had to hang around for the blood test, and had to eat something before I went home. It took forever, and I guess I paid for it today - so tired!
Enough complaining!
1 - prayers. Maybe someone can say that they heard the prayers were making some folks uncomfortable, and suggest a moment of silence instead. I would dislike this practice because it seems to make an assumption about me, that I would then feel uncomfortable about denying. It imposes on me an obligation to act as though it’s my religion or break the group’s tacit acceptance of it.
I love to pray in church. There’s an agreement among all of this that we come together for this reason, and we each pray in our own way.
2 - don’t discount little dogs! My 6-lb. Chihuahua is the most loyal, affectionate, funny dog I’ve ever met. He just turned 18 and we love him to death. He acts like he has attitude but then he melts your heart!
