I have been on codeine for a few months and love the way the drug helps my pain and does not cause me to get sick. But I do have a Vicodin prescription when I feel lots of pain (back, hip and spine). I was very nervous about trying the strong painkiller, so I only took a half. My first time a doctor in the ER gave me vicodin, (2 of them), I laid there for hours, just scared, because I was not used to such strong side effects. Perocet upsets my tummy and makes me sick. I get so sick from them, I get mad and toss them in the toilet. I love my doc, she is so careful with giving me pain medicines (narcotics), she does not want me to become addicted like so many people have become. But I am also very cautious of this. I can not believe use these drugs without pain. I hate having to take narcotic pain medicines. If you are taking these without a prescription or medical reason PLEASE GET HELP. These meds are no joke and can kill you.

Yesterday was a wonderful day spent with my loving husband, and today is a sad one. Remembering my teen brother who died of complications heart problems and pneumonia. Today is his birthday, it has been 4 years now since his death and my mind can only turn to thoughts of Whitney Houston’s daughter and family during their grief. My advice to them is to allow God to be their comfort and give their pain to God. It may not get better overnight, but each day, the pain get easier and easier to bear.
Words to remember when dealing with haters

This goes out to you
And you and you
You know who you are
Hmm, hmm, hmm
When glory days
Turn to stormy nights
You must have been
So petrified
Didn’t you
Didn’t you feel so cold
You against the world
In a losing fight
Captive
Of your demons inside
So you sought an enemy
(I’m not your enemy
He lives in you
You know it’s true)
Like times before
To mock ignorantly
(But the Lord said love
Love your enemy so just)
Take heed
To the Word it’s time
Check Proverbs 19:29
Don’t cry
I wish you well
I wish you well
I wish you well
I truly wanted solidarity
Still wearing
My blinders back then
(So much I didn’t see)
I weep for what I dreamed
We all could be
I’ll keep you in prayer
Till the end
Still bruised
Still walk on eggshells
Same frightened child
Hide to protect myself
(Can’t believe I still need
To protect myself from you)
But you can’t manipulate me
Like before
Examine first John
Chapter 4 verse 4
And
I wish you well
I wish you well
I wish you well
Be strong in the Lord
And power of His might
If my shows of gratitude
Are miniscule
Inside your mind, sorry
(I’m so sorry
Please forgive me)
There’s only so much I can do
I love you
And did all that I could
Maybe when you’re cursing me
You don’t feel so incomplete
But we’ve all made mistakes
Felt the guilt and self-hate
I know you’ve been there
For me plenty
Maybe still got love for me
But let him without sin cast
The first stone brethren
But who remains standing then
Not you not I see
Phillipians 4:9
Put it into practice
And the God of Peace
Will be with you)
So
I wish you well
I wish you well
I wish you well
(He who the Son
Sets free is free indeed)
No weapon formed
Against me shall prosper
Surely God is my salvation
I will trust
And not be afraid
The Lord
The Lord is my salvation
I will trust in Him
Yes
I know that I know
That I know
That I know
But I have had God’s help
To this very day
And so I stand here
And testify
To small and great alike
So the more you curse me
The more you’re blessing me
The Word said it
Love your enemies
Do good to those
Who curse you
Pray for those
Who mistreat you
Psalms 129:2
They have greatly
Oppressed me
From my youth
But they have
Not gained
Victory over me
(In Jesus’ name)
I wish you well
He that keeps his mind
State on the Lord
He will keep them
In perfect peace

I am in total shock. Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston were my idols growing up as a singing child. Whitney looked like she was doing better. Sometimes, the after effects of drugs can kill people, so, we will have to wait and see what the autopsy says. But that doesn’t take away how great or talented she was. Whitney knew Jesus, and I hope she met with Him in the sky. Rest in Peace, Ms. Houston.

Since I do not have the concentration to read books, but I love listening to audiobooks. This month’s audiobook is A Promise to Believe: Brides of Galletin by Tracie Petersen. It is a series of historical romance with good Christian values.
Book description: Gwen, Beth, and Lacy Gallatin fashion a life for themselves in the Montana wilds, operating a roadhouse that is located at the crossroads of two major stage lines. When their father is accidentally killed, the oldest sister, Gwen, reasons that she’s cursed. After all, death seems to haunt her: her mother, now her father…and she was married for a mere ten days before her husband died from a bout of measles.
As Gwen and her sisters struggle to maintain the inn on their own, an unexpected visitor adds to the mayhem. Hank Bishop claims to be searching for something in the possession of Gwen’s late husband. But mayhem of another sort builds in Gwen’s heart as she finds a growing attraction to this man. Can she dare to hope that love might again be hers?
