Anyone have something to share?
Psalm 35:1-9
¹Plead my cause, O Lord, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me.
2 Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for mine help.
3 Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that persecute me: say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.
4 Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul: let them be turned back and brought to confusion that devise my hurt.
5 Let them be as chaff before the wind: and let the angel of the Lord chase them.
6 Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the Lord persecute them.
7 For without cause have they hid for me their net in a pit, which without cause they have digged for my soul.
8 Let destruction come upon him at unawares; and let his net that he hath hid catch himself: into that very destruction let him fall.
9 And my soul shall be joyful in the Lord: it shall rejoice in his salvation.

I am feeling a little awkward going to work today.

This was harder than I expected. I logged in to one of the programs and my access to most of it has been removed. I understand them doing it, but am insulted they would think I would do anything unethical.

I guess you have to try not to take it personally, Kim. It is probably standard practice for them. At least that way they cannot blame you for anything. Sounds to me like you are better off out of there. Not that it is pleasant to lose your job!

Karen, yes, my mom is staying with a sibling. Which one is a complete surprise to me. I have some reservations, but there are five of us in total plus my mom making decisions. We would override hers, if it put her in danger, but we want her to have as much input as possible. She is still very independent in many ways.
She did some rearranging of the furniture and other belongings that were brought into her new space. That seems to be a good sign.
Lots of work left to do and there will be for quite awhile. It would have been so much nicer, if they had down-sized and given many of their belongings away. Many of the things we thought were in order were not. It is a lesson for us in considering what OUR children will face should we outlive them.

Is it the sister I’ve had a couple exchanges with on Facebook?

As soon as my father died, my brothers, their wives and I (and my husband) did estate planning: wills, medical directives, etc. We gathered together for one very long day and went through all the possessions, including spreading the jewelry on the table and taking turns picking out what we wanted–and for whom.
I got all the photos albums, anything family related, and it takes up a large bookshelf in my house. I paid one of my kids to scan a lot of photos and sent them to my brothers. I still get wistful comments about those photo albums, and encourage anyone who wants to see them to stop by!
I’ve helped clean out four houses, now, after someone died and it’s hard. Hard work, emotionally exhausting and that’s when people aren’t arguing. Afterwards, I didn’t step foot into a store other than for groceries, for months. The stuff we, they, them, all own is overwhelming.
The best moment? Throwing out an outlaw’s scale with a giant thunk into the dumpster.
Of course, the next day her son was looking for it . . .. 🙂

Please pray for BG and me. She will not respond to me and of course it is very upsetting. Her father hasn’t responded either

Will do Kim. I have a response to your first, which I will put on the Daily thread because it’s a bit long. bottom line. It isn’t personal.

We are back in our own home. We will travel and stay a night or two when we need to do so, but we will not be staying for 3 weeks like we have now.
Karen, she was one of the choices my mom was given, but she elected to go to my brother’s house. That was not even on my radar, but it did make sense in many ways.
I did get tons of work done while there. I have a few hours in the middle of the night, in which it is difficult for me to stay asleep, so I got up and wrote down a whole lot of things that need doing. That way if a sibling is wondering what to do, there is somewhat of a plan.
Another box of papers was found in my dad’s workshop. Still looking for others.
I know the Lord was with me!
Came back to Christmas in my house. I have never had my Christmas stuff this long. Should be good and dusty. I have been living in dust. 😦
There is no place like home!

Prayers for safety on the road tomorrow appreciated. It’ll be about six hours travel time somewhere between 9:00 and 5:00 Central. Thanks.
