Father in heaven please bless blb's dad with your divine protection. Please comfort him and ease his pain. We ask for your hand of healing and sustaining grace, Father, and please bless and comfort blb and her mom too with your reassurance and the presence of your Holy Spirit. We ask these things, Father, and thank you that we can come to you, Lord, in Jesus' name. Amen.

I was reading a chapter in my Sherlock Holmes book earlier and he mentioned that he smoked a pound of tobacco and drank two pots of coffee. Man. I thought I was a caffeine addict. XD
Keep in mind, those guys were old school. They probably drank it black too. I have drunk coffee black once...unless I absolutely have to, I will never do it again. Bleh.

Thank you, B1. 
I appreciate the prayer, and so does my family. God bless you.

I'm blessed to still have mom and dad, too, and as we were sitting down to have dinner together, I was typing the prayer, and we then included you when we said grace. I know the concern you must have, my folks are in their mid and late 80's, and just celebrated 66 years married last week! Praise the Lord, but of course at that age......(Ahh, who'm I kiddin', there in better shape than me!
)But,
What a blessing, and I pray for the same faithfulness, loyalty and love, should I ever be fortunate to be wed to the one the Lord says I should, but at my age, and the signs of the times, I'm probably just wishful thinking/dreaming at best.
But to have love, and have it last so long, must be a real gift, but also real dedication. I pray I can live up to even a small percentage of what my dad has shown.
May I ask your parents age, or if that's prying, I apologize.
In fact, now that I think of it, that probably was not an appropriate question.
Sorry. Anyway, I do hope it's not too serious with your Dad.
(Btw, I had to fight off every urge to adopt an 8 year old kitty-cat from a pet store today. All white, two different colored eyes, just like my little buddy I said goodbye to two+ years ago. Except he was a short-haired boy, and this was a long-haired girl. But the female version of my little boy. Really affectionate and sweet towards me, and I really wanted to rescue her out of that store, but I know my situation, and I just didn't feel like I could give her the best that she deserves, but it broke my heart to see her sitting in that cage all alone, and I'm getting torn up again just writing about it so I gotta go.
Sure thing...God bless you, too. I'm blessed to still have mom and dad, too, and as we were sitting down to have dinner together, I was typing the prayer, and we then included you when we said grace.

Mom is 81, dad is 85...
friends, i should have mentioned this in the morning... more than usually brain dead from helping my daughter get through two babies with headcolds/vomiting....
Frank was in a serious accident yesterday. he was on the way to the doc's, and an elderly woman pulled out just ten feet in front of him, and though he tried to stop, he t-boned her. she was ok, but didn't call 911... and he was unconscious for almost 5 minutes. (it's really bad for you to be knocked unconscious!)
he had a dislocated shoulder, black eye and bloody nose from the air bag, and was concussed.
it took the first responders an hour to take his truck apart to the point they could get him out, and then he was airlifted to the hospital.
he's home, and says he's quite sore (which i assume is manspeak and understatement). please pray?
thanks so much.

Thank you for letting us know, Ellie, I shall keep Frank in my prayers
PS that is terrible she did nothing for so long...

i think he finally called when he came to, and he said the state trooper was not pleased with her. she was ticketed for more than one thing, though.
it's a miracle they were both alright... both cars totaled, though.
No doubt the accident would have shaken her up, but if she is so disoriented after causing an accident and then does nothing to help the other person, she may need to have her license taken away from her. I am glad they are both okay, though, and happy to hear that Frank is well enough to be at home.
