Lonely

Hello WA friends. I haven't blogged in a while: 1) I've been busy with Elaine creating and populating our online mall project. 2) I've been a little depressed because I had developed vacsculitis ulcers on my feet and legs again and I've been treating them and keeping my legs elevated a lot of the time (at least I have caught up a little on my sleep during this process), I've been wanting to get back to my water aerobics but don't have doc approval for a few weeks more - bummer! and 3) I've been missing my missionary daughter and her family. I recently found out she is expecting her 3rd child and I so would love to be with her and my two little grandsons. I've mailed her a couple of "care" boxes with stuff for her birthday on June 13th and some larger clothes for her as her pregnancy progresses. The boxes have reached Papua New Guinea and cleared customs. I hope the Wycliffe aviation department can deliver them to her soon.

When I picked out the image above, I though "what if Jennifer and my two adorable grandsons were sitting with me on that bench?" I would be so content!

As a missionary grandma, I do worry a lot about my child and her family and my little grandsons. They are in my prayers daily. But I'm also proud of their commitment to their calling. They will be going into the 'bush' (jungle) soon to work with villagers in learning their language prior to starting the translation project. I will be worrying even more since there is no cell or internet communication there. But my good news is they will begin furlough late this year and return to Arkansas and I hope to be there when my new little grandchild is born. I will also be able to catch up on all their amazing stories and adventures in "the land of the unexpected".

I'm going to be working very hard with my WA sites and training in the coming months as one of my personal goals is to create extra income to help support my missionary kids.

I'm so glad for this community and the training - It helps take my mind off my worries and gives me something to do that might help my missionary kids in the long run.

Have a great day WA friends.

I wish you the best of health that you will be able to visit and see your family soon. Keep the faith and keep praying. God answers prayer. All the best.

You and your family will be in my prayers. Being involved with something like WA keeps our minds active and positive...continued success with your site. This year is going by so quickly so your reunion will be here soon.

Thanks for sharing. I hope it all works out. Cheers

Hi Shirley, Our daughter is thousand´s of miles away which is a bit heavy, but recently they managed to get Skype, which makes all the difference to being able to see her and her husband, a lot better than just a telephone call. I hope you overcome your health issues, Best Alan

Facetime too, up to now we have been able to Facetime them but where they are going is too remote for that. Seeing them is awesome even if I can't hug the boys.

Best wishes to you Shirley. I wear compression stockings for venous insufficiency!

I'm getting me some of those too.

Thanks for sharing, Shirley.

Take care Shirley, and best wishes for some good outcomes with your health issues.
