Taking the next plane too a Deserted Island

Robert's Aunt lost her home to a house fire Monday night. Praise God everyone got out safely http://www.salisburypost.com/Area/021109-raw-fire-video I had a MRI done of my pinch nerve yesterday. it looks like I am going to need surgery to relive the discomfort Robert's brother Bill pocket of infection is back. He is being readmitted back to the hospital. He will have a drain put back in to drain the infection. Also a new pic line will be put back in.We are all just devastated with the news. The kids, Robert and I gathered for Family Prayer last night. God is still and always GODD, full of mercy even through the storms! Grateful to have him on our "side" Anyone want to take a plane ride with me though??????

Great weekend and Fainting

We had a great weekend with our family! Bill and June came down Thursday ! He LOOKS great and I can tell he is mentally ready for his next surgery. I really think it will happen soon! Friday night we went to visit then at Nanny and Papaw. Saturday night all of Robert's brother and their families came over to celebrate their Mom's ( Nanny's ) birthday! I fixed a delicious Italian Chicken dish. We were packed here in my house for sure! Later we got a Wii bowling game going. Papaw and June really rocked at bowling. I have a feeling June and Bill will be buying a Wii soon! OK here is the Fainting story. This is a copy/paste e-mail I sent out to my Church family since I scared the jeepers out of them! I am OK but laughing at my self today! Copy/paste I am getting many e-mails phone calls, facebook comments from everyone I thought it would be easier to send out a e-mail. Thank you for the love and concern ! I am fine today. Just STILL VERY embarrassed after passing out in front of the whole Church yesterday. We have always been front seat Baptist I think that is going to change next week! I felt great yesterday morning during SS. When I went to Church though I started feeling a little queasy and flushed. I thought it would pass while we were singing. I began to feel even worse and told Robert that I was very dizzy. We both sat down and my symptoms just got worse. We decide to leave. I took several steps out and all I remember was sinking in a black hole and hitting my head on the floor. The medic decided that I needed to be taken by ambulance because my BP was so high 180/100. The Dr ran blood work , many test on me and everything is normal. He said I was very healthy! He said I had all the classic symptoms of fainting. The heart beats starts beating slow and it signals your brain to shut down ( which is a good thing). They don't know why. I have never fainted before but they said if this happens again I need to get it checked out. If I was too meet Jesus that day what a better place than a Church full of family, all my Pastors and great music! I am sorry though to scare everyone. My poor family was terrified! That was the hardest part listening to my kids cry and I could not comfort them. Thank-you for those who help Allyson and Jason with the kids. I can't even remember who all gave me medical care but Robert and I are very grateful. A special thank-you to Karen Brown for shouting my REAL age out. I have been telling everyone I was 40 for the last 10 years! I still love you Karen. Your sister in Christ who is FINE at 50! Teri

This and That!

My neck/shoulder seems to be doing better. I finished my last pill yesterday. I did wake up stiff this morning in my shoulders but now I am feeling better! Sunday night I had the pleasure of hanging out with 170 plus teens at we hope the Future Fuzion Teen Center here in Mooresville. The owners of the building REDS let the teens and area Churches use the building free to watch the Super Bowl, It was LOUD, lots of MUSIC. lots of FOOD and lots of FUN! The Youth pastor association has a vision of turning the old REDS into a Faith Base Youth center. It really is a COOL place and perfect set -up. So many teens are turned off by a CHURCH setting. This will be a relax and safe place for kids to hang out. They have planned a restaurant, recording studio, I-Caffa with Internet connection, game room, and a movie theater for the facilities. here is a link to go visit http://www.fuzioncenter.com/fuzioncenter/ and donate maybe. ;-) I am looking forwarded to this weekend. Bill and June are coming in for a visit. We are ecstatic that he is doing better. My niece Kristi is having a wedding shower. We are also having surprise 70th Birthday Party for my mother-in law Billie Don't worry it will remain a surprise. She has no idea even how to cut on a computer!
