GETTING MY EYE ZAPPED ON MONDAY AND SLOW LIVING

RANT?  SHORTLY AFTER I HAD CATARACT SURGERY IN MARCH OF 2024, my vision started getting worse then when I had cataracts.  Some call it second cataracts, but this condition is not second cataracts, but something else.  PCO.  The doc told me about this which I hadn't heard of before.  It's common.  Others I know have not had problems like this.  hum.

My Mom, Dad, Brother and Father-in-law all had cataract surgeries and they didn't develop PCO, so it makes me wonder if there replacement lenses were made of a different material with better results or they had more skilled surgeons.  Have I had too much blue light causing issues that haven't been talked about? 

Anywho, YAG procedures will be done on my eye December 29th and on the other one in February sometime.  I rescheduled before due to head cold.  Trying to play it safe.  Prayers for successful zapping.  Then in January, a bump inside my mouth will be looked at by a ENT doc.  

Never a dull moment.  FAT UPPER LIP.  I have a fat upper lip from a reaction to an antibiotic I was taking.  Gosh, when it rains it pours.  I will be eating yogurt this week as a help dealing with good gut health.  Antibiotics do a number on the gut. Called the on duty medical doctor as my lip puffed up and a blister began to form.  AMOX/CLAV POTASSIUM has done a number on me. Took some Benadryl which helped. 

I know my body is aging, but I'd like to age full of grace and be as healthy as possible.  

I started walking again on Saturday as the weather was gorgeous in the 60s. Walked a mile at the track and felt great about it.  Sunday, the cold winter winds are blowing with lower temps.  No walking today.  I'll continue in a few days as we receive another wave of warmth.  WINTER is definitely here.  Remember that we are one day closer to SPRING and this is a boost.

Sipping Ginger and Lemon Tea.  Pretty good.  A first for me. 

TODAY, Baker ~d has plans of fixing FOOL PROOF FUDGE and chocolate covered pretzel rods. I will have honored making my Holiday Treats then in the New Year, I will be doing the Daniel Diet in hopes of getting healthier.  No grains, no sugar, no animal products like meat, eggs and dairy.  Here I go again.   

I'll start a BIBLE STUDY at HOME and do posts about prayer in 2026.  When going through boxes, I found a very old book with different prayers and a booklet for Mothers that my Mom received when I was born.  My heart smiled.  I'm 70 so the booklet is as old.  Sweet prayers and poems about Motherhood.  

I'd like to turn loose of some of my BAD HABITS and mindsets plus behavior.  I'll be turning my back on much concerning lifestyle in this rat race world.  I don't want to be the modern woman at 70.  Deliberate slow down and slow living.  Leaning on the LORD JESUS and slowing down. Deliberately turning loose of rushing around.  Resting more and deliberately sitting at HIS FEET leaning against HIM in prayer, thought and behavior.  Turning loose of so much.

Here's to getting zapped and slow living,
~d

DECORATING

I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."



John 3:7

“Marvel not that I said unto thee,

Ye must be born again.”

King James Version (KJV)

PSALM 118:17

I shall not die,
but live, and declare
the works of the Lord.

PROVERBS 24:3-4

By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding

it is established;
through
knowledge

its rooms are filled with rare

and beautiful treasures.

As long as I live, I will have to continually submit to God's plan for my life. You will be blessed because you turned your life over to God. Be confessing how good God is and tell Him you agree with who He says He is. BELIEVE and watch miracles happen. Be not afraid. ~Deanna

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS
SELECTING THE CORRECT SIZE CHANDY TO USE IN A ROOM MADE EASY. FORMULA MEASUREMENTS: Measure the room's height and width. Add together the numbers. Example: 8' x 10' room is 8 plus 10= 18" Use a 18" wide chandy. OR Take width of room calculating 2" for every foot. Example: 15' wide room. Take 15 times 2 = 30. Room needs 30" wide chandy. Standard distance between the bottom of the chandelier to the top of the table is 30 inches. When hanging the chandelier, make sure to hang it at the proper height. The bottom of a chandelier over a dining table or kitchen island should hang 30 to 32 inches above the top of the table or island. Most rooms call for at least 7 feet of space between the bottom of the chandelier and the floor.

WISHES

NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna
