Hi Gang:
Just a note and a prayer request.  Cindy and Ron cannot agree
on how to split everything.  They  go before the judge on Friday.
Ron is getting more antsy and ugly as each day goes on.On Sunday morning Cindy was up at 5 am seeing about our new puppy.  It was thundering, lightening, and pouring rain.  She glanced out of the kitchen window and Ron was walking around
in the backyard with my youngest grandson's shotgun in his
hands.  It frightened her to death and she quickly locked the
back door and called 911.   The  police asked him what he was
doing and he said he was going to shoot a crow that had been getting the bird seed.  As you can see things are getting worse.I ask for your prayers that we all get through this alive and that there can be a fair settlement decided on.
I pray that all of you are doing OK and know that I am praying for all of you and that I love you.

Hi everyone, wanted to let you know what's going on here.
The divorce is almost final.   Cindy got the house, and
he has to pay the housenote every month.  Plus she will
get alimony, enough that she can scrape by on.  Also she will get some medical assistance plus he has to keep some insurance up on the house and himself, in case he dies before she does.
All hell broke loose tonight so he will be leaving tomorrow or
she will get a restraining order.  I will be disconnecting this
puter tonight and sitting it in the hall so he can take it with him.
But my son called today and said he will buy me another computer.  So hopefully I will be back in 2 or 3 weeks.
Take care of yourselves and know that I will be thinking of you all and praying for you, too.
Until we meet again.

Hi Everyone:   Sorry to be so long checking in.  I do hope you are all OK.  Cindy and I have just gotten back from Memphis.  We had to go up to see about Cindy's best friend since Jr. High.  She had breast cancer 15 years ago and 3 weeks ago she was diagnosed with bone cancer.   She is truly like a member of our family.  We are trying to help her decide some things since she was divorced 2 years ago and her parents and brother have passed on.  She has 2 grown sons but they are not much help at all.  Her name is Laura and I ask for your prayers for her.
As I said in my last update, the divorce is final and things are settling down here, finally.   Have to go to all my Drs. next week to find out how my body is doing.  It's been a hard roe to hoe but thankfully it is almost finished.
Love to alll of U.  Talk later.
