  1. i so understand you taking a break deena.....i don't have the same types of life changing things going on in my life...and i feel like taking a break so many times too!
    the need to contemplate all of these events would seem sooo necessary....and healing....and obviously that would lead to your relationship with God....
    i wish you peace and comfort on your break....and to finding joy.
    hugs, love and prayer, dear friend.

  18. Once again you amaze me- I haven't been able to visit your site as life has kept me busy, but I wanted to stop by and say good morning! You deserve a break and as much as i will miss your positive, sunny outlook on all things I know that you need to rest! You take care of YOU and we will be fine until you come back. I will continue to pray for your healing. God Bless you as you are snatching up some joy!!!! :O)

  23. Take Joy, my friend. Watch some lightning bugs, swat some mosquitos, sit on your deck and smell the air. They are really God's gifts. You need to rest-you've been pouring out to so many that need you. Be refreshed and come back with a new vision of His will. I'll be holding you up before Him. We love you very much. Debra

  29. Hi Deena,

    Just stopping by to say hello! I hope the break you are taking is comforting to you.

    I love the glass flowers in your previous post. Are they made from crystals? They really are gorgeous. And your yo-yo table cover is wonderful! Hmmmmm. . .I may have to make one of these.

    Take care, and lots of love to you,
    Nancy

  30. Deena, you know when we go through these traumatic times in our lives, we clutch to the Lord, hang on for our dear lives, trusting Him for everything. . . . but it is still such a storm, inside us and outside, no matter what we do or say. And there comes the day, like today for you, that you realize that you have hardly been able to be still, REALLY still, and look into His face and He into yours, and know that you have found a safe harbour for your soul again! Take the time. "Be still and KNOW that I am God." And you will surely know when you know. And everything will again be ok.
    You know I'm praying for you, don't you??????

  34. Hi Deena! My Mom and Aunt Sherry left this morning so I'm back at blogging again. (I miss them already though.)

    I can't believe all that's been happening in your life while I've been away from blogging. I want you to know I include you in my prayers every time I pray. Every time.

    Rest. Find Peace. Stay positive. Stay clear of anything negative. Find comfort in God's word and in knowing He hold you in his hand.

    Hugs!

  36. Sometimes life is like a river, and those little streams and creeks that branch off , are alot like our lives . Some are bumpy, you get tossed around, sometimes knocked off the raft if theres rapids, but you just have to kick your way to the top, catch your breath and climb aboard the boat again, then other times its like a soft flow, your inner tube whirls you around and about slowly, as you take it Gods beauty, just being lazy and floating about, resting. Thats where you are now, just need to kick back and trust where God is taking you. All is well with your soul...and I know I have Faith, I just know it that I know...He will heal you Sweet precious Deena..I love you sweet girl... Jackie ( Dove 2 Mist)

  56. Dearest Deena,
    I have been an avid reader of your blog for a long time. I have never left comments. Just on your guest book. But I always pray everyday for a fast recovery for you.
    I want you to know that you are an inspiration to many and to me. Take that much needed break and just breath. You are beautiful, talented and a very loving person. God has many plans for you and I know your fan club will be here waiting when you come back.
    Peaceful blessings and health.

  58. Thinking about you, Deena. I wish I had whimsy to share, but I'm not nearly as creative as you girls :)

    I'm reading the labels for this post--break, faith, healing, joy, life, purpose, spirit, whimsy. I hope you're finding all of these things in abundance.

    Love to you.

  59. Deena, my thoughts and prayers are with you:) see you when you get back

  60. I was just thinking about you tonight! You're still in my prayers. Take care!!

  61. Was reading back about the "gamma knife" procedure...noticed it was given at the St. Francis Medical Center...St. Francis, the Saint who was loved and trusted by all animals. That was a "God shot" place to have your next procedure done cause of how you showed and loved animals on your nature blog.
    None of this can have been easy, hope you are as best as can be expected.

  81. You know I was thinking the other day it has been almost a year since I sent that little parcel your way with the hand dyed goodies.
    So much has happened since then. Life for you has taken on new meaning.A path you never thought you would have to travel has been set before you.
    First I must tell you that you have traveled that path with dignity and head held high.You have shared your travels with others and enriched all of us by doing so.
    Enjoy this time with your family and friends but most importantly with yourself.
    Enjoy the summer, before you know we'll be complaining it's too cold.

  124. Sweet Deens - checking in now and then only to find you are still resting and spending precious time enjoying the "singing woods"......and Nature's beauty and bounty I'm sure.

    Today is Pink Saturday where Beverly at How Sweet The Sound hosts "pink posts", This day always makes me think of you as we share whimsical pictures and little stories revolving around pink!

    Hoping you and Rich, and your entire family, are doing well. We hold you close to our hearts and send good wishes Deena. You are so special and we pray God is being gentle and loving toward you as you fight the good fight.

    Love - Mary & Bob XX
