April Showers...

...makes us some really soggy people! Thank goodness for the sun finally beginning to shine, and I'm about ready to take to the yard and start planting. I just love spring! I was sitting in my car waiting for someone to come unlock the church doors and just looking at the rain on the windows, and almost immediately, the sun started to peek through the clouds and this is what I saw-a most welcomed sunset. Beautiful!

In this month I've experienced some up notes, like,
For my 47th Birthday my co-workers really let me have it!
They chalked my car,
And THEN they made me dress up in a tiara and beads with a wand and say
"bling, it's my birthday" whenever a patient came to the desk! {{{sigh}}}}

Until I found the time to wash my car,
I had people honking and waving at me for 3 days!
I'll get them...revenge is SWEET!

Boredom is prevalent around this time at work. Just a hint of what it's like:

After all, I work in a gym, dude!


My boss took his last hurrah by doing his first venipuncture in years:

and of course, he MISSED!

Farewell, Slouster, enjoy Retirement!

We also had a baby shower for Cupcake and her Lil' one:

hope he comes real soon!

And on a down note:

We lost a dear friend to a tragic traffic accident. Kashera was a beautiful young lady who I loved dearly, to her I was her "T.T." Both of us shared a common bond by being the eldest child, taking care of our siblings at an early age. We would discuss this sometimes as we prepared for dance rehearsal with the Daughters of Zion.

Kashera's smile lit up the room when she entered, and her eyes looked right into your soul. She was beautiful both inside and out! She was able to hear her 7 month old daughter, Monica say "Mommy" for the first time on the morning of her accident.

"My Baby K"

She loved life and was a great influence to other young people her age wherever she went.

And she loved the Lord and served Him until the day she left this earth.


My Aunt Rosetta in Ohio has gone on to be with the Lord, I pray for comfort for my cousin Natalie and her family and traveling grace to them as they take care of some arrangements for her memorial. I pray for peace to the entire Corbin Family during this time of bereavement.

But the Greatest note is this:
We must always enjoy life, each and every day, no matter what it brings. The good and the bad, the happy and the sad, must always be celebrated. You never know, when you see someone it may be the last time, so always have a kind word on your lips and peace in your heart. We are living in some crazy days! And there is more to come...keep you foundation in Christ, and if you don't know Him, get to know Him. Spread love, and give peace a chance. You just never know...so until then
Let Life, Love, Peace and Joy Inspire YOU!
