Regularizing…

Woo-Hoo !

Two more weeks of taking drugs, then a month or so to flush them out of my system, then I wait for 6 months to see if the virus actually went away—BUT—in two weeks, I stop taking these abusive drugs !!!

Today was my birthday and I unexpectedly gave myself a present I didn’t think I’d have for two more weeks—Internet in my apartment. It was really good to see how hard two men worked today to assure I had the Internet Today ! Not many cool service people left out there . . .

So, with the promise of more regular posting, I’ll leave you with the words that go with that image up there:

Rejuvenation

Restoration

Renewal

Re-Creation

Refreshment

Mending

And, this prayer:

O God! Refresh and gladden my spirit. Purify my heart. Illumine my powers. I lay all my affairs in Thy hand. Thou art my Guide and my Refuge. I will no longer be sorrowful and grieved; I will be a happy and joyful being. O God! I will no longer be full of anxiety, nor will I let trouble harass me. I will not dwell on the unpleasant things of life.

O God! Thou art more friend to me than I am to myself. I dedicate myself to Thee, O Lord.
