August 09 Hello again... I haven't written in a while again Hey. It's been a while since I've written last, like two years ago. Mom and I are getting anxious to get back to Ohio for the fall season, but we can't go anywhere because Mom found out that she has a very bad cataract in her right eye and needs to get it removed. I think she'll be happier once it's out though. I really can't wait to see my family and friends again. I'm not complaining about Florida, although I do hate the bugs. Life is good here in Florida, but I miss my family and friends in Ohio. Missy and Jenny, my sister Vivian, my nieces and nephew, my grandnieces and grandnephew, and my brother Michael, and cousin Marie. I really miss them. I miss my brother Carmine too though, but he's all the way on the other side of the country. The only thing I'll miss here in Florida is my walking routine, that I don't even do, however, it's available to me. In Ohio, I don't know of any place safe enough to walk in my neighborhood. In the meantime, my health is really getting to the point that I need to walk every day. My sugar has gone up through the roof, and my weight is too heavy. Plus I have a fatty liver. So I'm glad that I took care of my insurance paperwork just in case I die: God forbid. I would like to live... skinny if possible. Other than that, I've been doing okay. Just sitting on my derriere most of the time playing on my computer, unless I'm reading a fascinating book. Right now I'm reading about digital photography, and after that I'll probably read a little bit of "Guide to the Ancient World". I've got so many books! I did an inventory of all my books and I counted about over 150 and that was two years ago. Reading relaxes me. So does Gospel and praise & worship music too. July 23 Selling the Florida home...Well, once again Mom is planning to sell the house here in Florida. She figures she can sell this one and get a whole lot more money from it than from the house in Ohio. If the prices would just go up, it'd be okay. But the prices for homes down here have gone down. She wants to see if our neighbor's landlord would want to buy our home. If we do sell this house, how will we fit all our stuff into the house in Ohio? Then the other problem is that my sister is living in the house in Ohio. How do we accommodate her? Mom says that she'll have to move out if we move in. Then I wonder what will we all do without our Florida home? I suppose we'd have to save up enough money for gasoline, motels, and food. In a way, I sure do miss Ohio because all my family is there. I should be there to see my grandnephew and grandnieces grow. And then there are my close friends who miss me. Yes, Ohio will be a good place to be again. It's just that I wonder...how long will my home in Ohio last? God forbid that the city would want it. I suppose I am worrying for nothing. It's just that the land across the street was sold for over a million dollars. Will that raise the worth of my home in Ohio? The only reason why Mom wants to sell the house in Florida is to pay off the mortgage and our debts. I really believe that the gambling casinos that have been popping up all over America have caused people to lose their homes. JESUS help us! May 16 Hello
December 30 Happy New Year!!!Hope everyone has a safe and happy New Year's Eve and New Year's Day. Hope 2007 brings the Lord's return too.

Anna December 20 Home I'm finally home. Now that I'm back, Mom and I switched bedrooms. I did all the moving of furniture. I'm so glad that I have the bigger room now; I really needed it.  I had to buy a bookcase for all my books. I haven't counted them all, but I bet I have at least 100 books of various subjects and topics.  I finally put the Christmas tree up! It's just a little thing, but it lights up with different colors. I mailed packages to my friends, as well as Christmas cards to everybody. I also made some Italian cookies and mailed them to my brother. It's been a great season so far. Christmas is a wonderful time of year.  October 22 Today's My Birthday!!!Hi everyone. Just want to let you all know that today is my birthday. I'm 43. That means I've got to edit all my profiles which has my age on them. There are several things I did today: 1st, I got my camera and imported the digital film of my grandnephew's 5th birthday party from yesterday into the computer; 2nd, return my friend's call and let her know I'm still in Ohio and that we'll be leaving for Florida this coming weekend; 3rd, received my birthday present from my sister; 4th, went out to Cracker Barrel with Mom and my sister to celebrate my birthday; 5th, got home to spend some time with my niece and grandnephew and to show everybody my new video of Anthony's 5th birthday party on DVD. Now everyone has left and I got some time to spend on my computer. I can't wait to buy some more software for my new laptop computer! I'd like to buy the Office:mac. Can't wait to get it! October 16 Prison Pen Pals For the past few months, I've been corresponding with a friend of mine who is in prison for possession for cocaine. If anybody is reading this, please pray for her. She's supposed to get out of prison and go into rehabilitation soon. But the prison is taking it's time in helping her. She's asked me to find information about certain facilities in Georgia. I met this lady at Mt. Paran Church of God way back in 1993. I was a live-in babysitter for her baby, Jordan. I later had to leave Georgia, but I kept in contact with her. She has always led an interesting life that I've never had. She knew everyone in town, and I was drawn to her popularity. Now that she's in jail, everyone has abandoned her. The Lord laid it in my heart to contact her again after all these years. I got on the Internet and tried to find her by looking through Cobb County Jail database. I found her! And I contacted her just in time. She was so happy to hear from me. I actually left my vacation home in Ohio to drive down to Marietta to see her again. She is determined to be through with drugs because she hates the lifestyle. She is so on-fire for God and His Son, Jesus again. I guess she is trying to make up for all the time she didn't have with God all these years. She wants to start a ministry helping women in prison who have nothing. October 14 InJesus.com I'm having a wonderful time working for my group called "Worship Messiah JESUS!" on www.inJesus.com. All I had to do was pay one penny for each e-mail I send. I got the word out to everybody! So if anyone is interested in hearing praise & worship music, just visit http://www.Live365.com/stations/anna102263 October 12 Birthday Girl!BIRTHDAY TIME!!!On October 22, 2006 I will be 43 years old. Wow! Time flies fast. I remember when I was a sexy little thing in the United States Air Force always on my own and in no relationship. I was always serving my God and country. I was always in Church. I had a few mentors who looked out for me. Then I was Honorably separated from the Service and I headed to Tulsa. I learned a lot there. I was blossoming into a young woman, trying to find my way to serve God again. Then I went home and I've been dead ever since! I've tried to go back to Oklahoma where I served Jesus, but it seems like my mother and family just keeps me pulled away. I've gotten fat over the years, especially after my major surgery in 1996. I just don't feel as alive as I used to. Depression got the best of me, it seems, especially being thrown out of a church when the person who threw me out was worse than I was in her following Carman. I think I could sue them for it, but I've already got a pension so why bother? They deserve to be sued. All their hatred is despicable; especially towards a sister in Christ...me! When am I going to get my life back? The doctors are wanting to do a hysterectomy on me, so maybe I'll feel vibrant again after they take out my uterus. That's another story. I've not had any babies yet, nor have I been in a relationship that really would matter. This is a terrible life, even though I have The Lord. I feel like a slave to my mother, but she takes good care of me at her ripe age of 81. Being a 100% disabled American veteran wears me out. But I enjoy relaxing and reading and keeping occupied with the computer. I studying Manga at the moment. I've studied web design in the past. And I've also been an artist, as well as a song writer and singer...not professionally though, but enough to know I really enjoy it. I guess I shouldn't complain about my life. JESUS is a very good King and takes care of me just fine. |
