Lost, Loved & Legal

Yesterday I went to Kaiser twice and both times had to turn around and backtrack my way to the right place. Going to the lab for blood work I didn't put a Sticky on my dash telling me where to go so out of habit drove up to where I get off to see Dr. Sheehy or Dr. McCormick who are in the same area, but nowhere near Kaiser. When I got off the exit I realized I had no clue who I was to see. A short prayer and a quick response and I was getting back on the freeway heading for Kaiser's lab.

Later, when I went to see my doctor, I knew where I was going and how to get there and was even watching for my exit... I just didn't seem to notice that it went by. I was several exits up the road when I realized I was too far. Again, I backtracked to the proper place.

I should be used to these shenanigans by now, but am always a bit frazzled by them, so after seeing my doctor and getting my meds, I napped in the car before heading back. I got as far as McDonald's where I stopped for an Asian salad and more rest.

I was pretty much done for the rest of the day. Later, I got a second wind and did some email. The Bank of Africa wants me to send all my personal and bank info so they can transfer $2.5 millin into my account here. Isn't that nice? I believe that is what's called a 419 scam.

Once in bed, I slept on a stack of pillows and slept very well. I do feel better this morning and am so thankful for all the things God has done for me. I need to keep my brain fresh because I have a deposition tomorrow and I won't be allowed or have time to bring in notes to refer to.

We didn't know that, and now I am concerned that I will not think fast enough or remember the answers to things I should know. God will work it out, but I really hate not having the right answers. I just read how lame that sounds... as if God taking care of it was not enough! That's not what I meant to say.

I was in a deposition before and I guess my worse fear is that the lawyers will twist what I say and get me flustered and I will flood and that would be a real problem for everyone. By "flood" I mean when my brain gets overloaded and can't process information. I become overwhelmed and unable to respond in any sensible way. Thought is mired in a sea of molasses... It's not cool. One time a lady thought I'd had a stroke... really freaked her out!

Anyway, rambling on about it here is like talking it over with an old friend and I'm thankful for the blog. My doctor thinks it's a good thing for me to do even though it sometimes takes me hours on end and can take all day. The doctor also said I needed to tell my lawyer about it... but I forgot until yesterday. I called and they had me send the links... took 7 tries to get that email out.

There's nothing in my blogs or sites that I would hide, there's nothing in my life I would hide, either. Not that it's all good. I've made some bad mistakes along the way, but keeping them secret only lets them continue to be a problem. All my sins have been known by Jesus and forgiven. They are not things to hide but examples of His mercy.

So, let the lawyers read my blogs, I don't care. In fact, I hope they do, for they will hear of my Lord. I can't talk about my life or my heart without talking about the Lord.

What a blessing is iListen! I have completed this blog in record time and will now post with this added prayer request: Please pray for me tomorrow that I don't get anything mixed up, that I can remember the stuff they ask for, that I not flood. Also pray that this case will settle soon in a win-win agreement with both sides coming out of it in a fair and optimal way.

Thanks again for all you encouragers who leave public comments or send private emails. You have no idea what a blessing you are to me.
