I've been away from Blogger and I can't remember when was the last time I posted.
So much has been happening since then. My life has taken a new direction, and my days have become even more busier than ever before, but Jesus is carrying me when I'm too tired.
I'm in the process of selling our farm, and the buyer is not interested in the equipment which we have to sell, piece by piece. My husband has dementia and can no longer care for himself and is totally dependant on me. My son was helping me with selling the farm equipment but unexpectedly died of a massive heart attack, leaving me to deal with a lot. My two remaining daughters have been a great help to me after my son died but are both busy themselves with family and work. Every day has been filled with many details of settling my son's affairs, and details of the farm sale, year end for income tax for the farm and personal income tax, etc.
I'm sorry about not visiting my followers blogs but there are not enough hours to do everything that needs to be done. My gardens are waiting to be taken care of but I still don't have time for them. Not a single seed has been planted yet. The lawn finally got mowed.
My iPhone died and I got a Samsung, but haven't figured how to upload photos to my macBook Air laptop. I changed our telecomunication server to another one to save money, as they were charging us a ridiculous amount each month. I'm saving $180. a month but I have to get used to a new cell phone. I'm not sure wether I'll return to blogging, anytime soon since I just don't have the time to visit right now.
I wish all my blogger friends, a safe summer.
Hugs, Julia
Oh my word Julia!!! When I saw that you had posted I was overjoyed but so very sad about your news.
ReplyDeleteYou have had such heart ache in your life first losing your beloved daughter and now your son. I have no words but my heart aches for you and you will be in my prayers.
Your plate is so full I do hope you are getting some help with your husband. It is very heavy load for your to carry alone. Will you have to move when you sell the farm?
Please Julia keep posting when you have the time.
many prayers and hugs

Julia my heart breaks for you. Sorry for your son's death and having to deal with so much even during your grieving. I pray some from your church and neighbors will help in your time of need. God Bless you and know HE will keep watch and guide you.
ReplyDeleteOh, Julia, I just told myself this afternoon I needed to email you and find out what was happening with the farm sale.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry to hear George’s dementia has gotten worse and the shocking news of Vaughn’s death.
They say God doesn’t give you more than you can handle. He must really have faith in you with all you are dealing with. I will keep you in my prayers.

Oh Julia my heart goes out to you. You have way too much on your plate. Don't worry about visiting us.
ReplyDeleteI will hold you in my heart.
Oh my gosh Julia. So sorry to hear all that you have been dealing with. Hugs and prayers. Janice
ReplyDeleteOh my Goodness Miss Julia! I am SO sorry for your loss!! I just cannot imagine what you are going through right now. Thank God for your daughters...
ReplyDeletePraying for you!!!

Oh, Julia. Praying for you as you handle all the details and also grieve so much. I'm so sorry.
ReplyDeleteOh Julia, I am so very sorry. I will be praying for you. I had no idea you were going through these hard things. So many changes. I will keep praying for you.
ReplyDeleteOh my dear friend....Words cannot convey how my heart hurts for you. Like Lauren, I meant to message you just to check in and my days got away from me. I am so very sorry to read about Vaughn. I cannot imagine what you are going through - and then the added stress of the farm sale, equipment sale, taxes, and George's health issues. Please know you are wrapped in prayers and healing thoughts. I wish comfort, peace and strength for you. Do not worry about reading our blogs please - just check in once in a while so we know you're persevering. Hugs...and more hugs.... Robin
ReplyDeleteOh sweet Julia, I just gasped when I read this. I'm so very sorry for your loss. I know you've lost a daughter and now your son. Words cannot express how sorry I am. Taking care of your husband isn't an easy job and you sure have your hands full. Throw selling and moving on top. I can't even imagine. So please know you are loved here and I'm sending prayers for your family and for you. I wish I could be there to hug you! I think you remember my BFF Donna who used to blog. She introduced me to your blog! Her husband passed away a few weeks ago. Sadness all around. I've never met you in person but feel like I've known you forever. Hugs and prayers from Ohio to you.
