April 6th, 2013

     The flu season seems to be winding down here in Oklahoma and the rest of the United States., though it is still sporadic in some places. China has recently had an outbreak of bird flu, and some kind of respiratory infection seems to be going around Norman. I was sick with a mild sore throat last week. I have been lucky this year not to have gotten sick. Usually, I get sick every three years or so. Last year I had a particularly stubborn case of bronchitis that took months to go away. In the tropics the flu spreads year round. I believe that our bad flu virus is coming back again this coming winter and it will be stronger. Nineteen days left until the first lunar eclipse of the year.

     God continues to work in my life. I see what he does for me every day. Miracles happen on a daily basis and I have much to be thankful for. New friends are one of the best gifts that God can give us. God has been taking care of me financially too! Praise God! I know that I am safe and taken care of. I am also cutting back on my smoking habit. Not quite ready to quit. Almost there though. Getting closer to the goal every day. I no longer allow myself to buy a pack of cigarettes, so it will be hard for me to get any. That's is OK with me, because I am doing well with the nicotine cravings, but I still have them from time to time.

     God continues to help me.  The LORD has not failed to keep me. I think of that family (you know you are) and miss them and care for them. I worry about them in these uncertain times. I send my love to them and to you too, dear reader. I continue to be happy and enjoy the bounty that I don't deserve. I give thanks for God's grace, mercy and love.

     It is interesting that they had to label the parents as "anti-government". This sounds like the plot of a movie. In fact, I think that it is.
