Am off work today and tomorrow; might as well take advantage of it.  It's just me and the cat, and my cat is now looking at me, with a look on his sweet, furry face, as if to say: "Feed me!" LOL

After I feed the cat, I may do some laundry; only have two loads.  Nothing too painful.  After that, I may go to the store, get some needed foodstuffs, new detergent, new necessities that I need to get through the day.  May even go out to eat, may go to Olive Garden, have one of their scrumptious salads, which are to die for! Yumm!

I am enjoying life:  work is going splendidly; the kids are such a joy, especially Ricardo, who is a little angel--and a living miracle.  He was born with hydrocephalus (water on the brain), is blind, and has some degree of cerebral palsy; yet his personality lights up the room whenever he appears.  People can't be sad whenever Ricardo Gonzales enters the scene!

I also love Emily Renee' Pickler; she is eight, and has Down sydrome.  She hasn't been in school lately; she's at home, recovering from her latest heart surgery.  She's on the mend, but it will be at least a month or two before she's able to go back into the world; right now she's homebound until she heals. We really miss her; she's a real cutie pie with her red curly hair and big brown eyes that miss little.

I wish I could take some of those kids home with me, raise them as my own! LOL  They make my world so much better!  God really had plans for me when I lost all that excess weight and turned my life around; now I'm getting blessed like you wouldn't believe!

I wish other people had it as good as I do right now!

Well, I am going to attempt to get out of bed; Winston (my cat) is trying to sit on my face; he won't leave me alone until I feed him!  He's a mess!  I will write in here again; take care and may God bless you as much as He's been blessing me lately!  So long for now!

~Love, your friend, Marlayne Goodwrench. :D
