God I hate this day!

6/24/2002 @624pm. Permanently branded in my brain! Probably only occured because my doctor was honest with me, not my FWW.

If I was rude yesterday, I apologize to those I offended.

I am alone now as my W is overseas awaiting and helping my oldest son in the soon to be birth of our first grandchild.
I was hoping the birth would be today, so I could replace a horrible memory with a good one. Oh well, the day is not over yet.

God, I hate this day!

All Blessings,
Jerry

Sorry Jerry.

June is way too pretty a month to have such a dark day associated with it.


I never had to take the Kobayashi Maru test until now. What do you think of my solution?

O'hana means family, and family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten.

Go out and do something memorable today.....take this day away from the A, and back for yourself. That's what I plan on doing March 30, 2009.

((((((Jerry))))))

Where is your wife overseas? Is there still time for the birth? I am in DST and it is 4:08 so there COULD be time. This is MY wish for the future too. That a Grandchild will be born on 5/31!!!

You were so kind to post on my D-Day thread about your black balloon on the beach with your wife. It meant everything that someone thought about me on the day that holds my WORST memory.

I am praying for you today. For a healthy new grandchild, for a happy day, and MOST of all for the PEACE THAT PASSES UNDERSTANDING!!!!!!!! For peace and joy and freedom from the torment that comes from this AWFUL memory, for a good man of GOD!!!

Maybe a black balloon of your own would be helpful?

Blessings,

Thanks to all,

Like the rest of the fallout from A's, sometimes you just have to suck it up and keep moving.

jmho, Jerry, but 'tis better in the long run for your grandson/granddaughter to have "his/her own day."

"Sufficient unto the day are the troubles therein."

364 for "without" and 1 for "the day" until even "the day" fades into the past and is swallowed up in all the other "good days."

God bless.

Thanks FH, you are so right, as usual.

I don't want a dark day to do anything to cloud the memory of the birth of my first grandchild.

You took the words out of my mouth, as i was thinking, I wish the calender only had 364 days. frown

Thanks FH, hope you are feeling better after your horrible loss.

All Blessings,
Jerry

PS: My son has decided that if it is a boy, his name will be Luke. I opened God's word today and asked Him to bring me where He will, And the very first sentence I read was:
"The Holy Spirit will come upon you." Luke 1:35.

hmmmmmmm....
