Since Amy is taking a leave from blah, blah, blogging… and since it looked like fun, I thought I might try a new meme. Bon Apetite!

Where on your body do you have a scar, and what caused it?
I have 4 scars… one on my head, one on my right hand, one from a c-section and one on the bottom of my right foot. Going from head to toe… the first was received when I was about 9 or so… I was attempting a back flip off of the side of the public pool and didn’t quite clear the concrete edge (did I swoon from the head trauma or the handsome lifeguard?). The one on my hand is fading, but it is the one that I am reminded of most often because I see it all of the time… I put my hand in a hot oven to snatch something out, my mom caught me, I was startled ~ my hand went up and touched the heating element. The c-section scar is pretty self-explanatory, and is the one that means the most to me… some scars you just have to earn, and that one I did! The last one is the oldest… I was maybe 5 and running through a neighbors backyard when I stepped on a can lid… left a mountain shaped scar on my instep.

What is something that has happened to you that you would consider a miracle?
Well, I just mentioned a post or two ago that I don’t hear God talking to me through bushes or anything. There was this one time, though, that I had been praying for some time over a possibility. I felt as if I heard my name. Just like God saying, “ I hear you, Tammy.” And if a sound can remind you of something tangible, that one reminded me of metal… or a metallic sound.
However, Albert Einstein said “There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” I agree 110%… which is probably why I get such joy out of “shiny nickels”.

BrendaI love your newest photos – I like the pictures of days gone by. Thanks for praying for Becca and her family - after her graduation ceremony yesterday she peacefully went to the arms of Jesus. What a day for her – graduating from HS and then “graduating” from her earthly existence. I really like this Friday feast – I think I’ll join in a little…. Appetizer: I have a scar on my inside right knee – from a horse running over me when I was 13. Soup: Hmmm… a miracle…. for ME? Not sure?? Salad: Dorothy Lucey of Good Day LA Main Course: funny word – Ruin pronounced rueen. Dessert: I always thought rainbows are God’s promise of faithfulness.
Have a great Saturday! B February 24 12:23 PM |

Serenity SeekersInteresting… I love old memories. I just don’t have the energy to do all that ‘thinking’ right now about myself… I guess that is a bad sign! No, really I am nursing a cold. I am not flat on my back, but running on low for sure. Just wanted to see what was new over at your place. I commented on some of your photos- I loved the beehives and the other olides! Great addition! Lynda February 24 1:08 AM |

MylifeAPPETIZER: I have several scars…the biggest is from my c-section and the other once to mention would be the scar on the top of my forehead from when I was jumping on a bed in my toddler years and clock fell on me and cracked my head wide open. Then i fell off a truck a couple of weeks later and cracked my head wide open AGAIN in the same place!! SOUP: After a friend of mine died very suddenly and unexpectedly, I was so mad! I couldn’t get over my anger with God for taking her. After she died, I started getting a really bad ear ache and I prayed (to myself and her): “If you are okay…please send me a sign…my ears really hurt and I want the pain to go away.” Within an hour…the pain was gone and I haven’t had an ear ache since! That is my miracle. I was okay after that…no more anger…it was gone too. SALAD: John Stossel (i don’t know how to spell his name) He puts down teachers. MAIN COURSE: Blankie for Blanket (still do) DESSERT: I have always thought that friends and family are amazing. February 23 10:16 PM |

(no name)God spoke to you. I believe that. I’ve had similar experiences. I like the shiny nickel approach. February 23 12:29 AM |
