Happy last day of May!
Crazy here this morning since my son stopped home last night to get, what else? Some cash and food! Actually, he is moving to a new apartment today and needed some boxes and such, the cash and food are just a given!
An up date on Danny... his short term memory is still very shaky. He is remembering bits and pieces of what happened. They did not want anyone to tell him what happened as the police have been there daily to question him to get his side of the story and didn't want it influenced by anyone else. He is awake and being Danny! Saying he is hungry and wants some mashed potatoes! His jaw is wired so eating is very limited. He is actually 36 which I was shocked at since it seems like not too long ago he was graduating high school! Gosh, the years just really do fly by! Thought he was much younger! They have arrested 2 girls and 2 more arrests are pending. One girl is 18 and she is charged with numerous charges and is in jail. The other girl is 17 and again with several charges but is out on bail. In total they assaulted 3 people and attempted to steal a car. It is said that one of the guys involved was to leave for Iraq on this past Tuesday. I really don't know if it is true. Find it a little hard to believe that some one who has survived boot camp and military life would be a party to this but if it is true, maybe that is what would be good for him. Really don't think anyone gets much rehab in prison and maybe the realities of fighting in a war will give him a new perception on the value of life. I look at my kids and thank God!
I had thought that yesterday was Thursday, so actually my friend goes for her biopsy this morning but I did talk to her yesterday. They are also having their dog put down today...it just never seems to end for her. But their poor old dog is 14 years old and has been diabetic for many years. Blind, deaf and arthritis so he is really suffering. And, her son has relapsed and will be going back into rehab this week. It doesn't rain but it pours!
That's about it...so keep the prayers coming.
So, more of the kit???? Today is kind of a mix of stuff. Overlays, word art, corners...

I am glad to hear that Danny is doing better. Unfortunately it may be true that one of the suspects is in the military. There was an article on tv just last week I believe that gang members now join the military but not for honor and a sense of duty. They join to be properly trained and when they come out they put their gang colors back on. Sad but true. I have multiple family members who were in the military (my Uncle was a career Marine, my Dad is an Army Veteran and two of my cousins each joined the Navy and the Army) and it's sad that so many undesireables are now infiltrating such an honorable position in society.
Great to hear Danny is slowly improving! Will keep them in my prayers!!
TY so very much for the awesome DL today another great addition!!!
Thank you for the pretty pages. I'm glad that Danny is recovering. It's good he has friends who care about him.
Wonderful additions to your kit; thanks! So glad to hear Danny is getting better; hope he will continue to improve each day. Praying that your friend's surgery will go well. (((HUGS)))
lovely elements and word art.tfs
Thanks for today's part.
Glad that Danny is doing better, and on his way to recovery. Hopefully the ones that did this will get their just punishment.
I'm happy to hear your son is getting better.
I think people that commit violent crimes need to be in prison and not in the military!
Lovin your kit!!!TFS!!!!
Thank you so much!
That is great news about Danny!! I can't get over the fact that it was TEENAGERS that caused all of this violence!! It truly makes me want to knock some sense into them AND their parents!! (I will not vent on my thoughts here...lol)
Bless you friend's heart!! So much she's going through!! Prayers are still going up for her and her family.
Awesome elements today!! You just amaze me at your talents!! TY TY TY
So glad Danny is doing better. Will continue to pray & wish him returned health. Will add your friend to those prayers also since it seems her grief plate is piled high & overflowing. There are actually gang's in the military & they recruit others. When I first got to Germany there was this guy's pic splashed all over the tv, they were looking for info on his murder. Well it just came out that his death was the result of a gang "jumping in". They are still looking for the ring leader who is former military. So a tour in Iraq might not help this kid they should just toss him to the insurgents. Yeah yeah I know so bad of me to say that, but it was just totally wrong what they did to Danny & all the others they attacked. Now on to positive things...thanks so much for the kit parts today. Will there be some in blue for the boys or is this easy to change the colors ourselves? Thanks again
So glad Danny is doing better than expected. From what you first wrote I really thought he would not make it.. So I am very relieved. I continue to send him healing prayers for a full recovery! Also prayers for your friend in hopes the tumor is not malignant.. So sorry to read about her dog and then her son. Wow, what a heartbreak! I sincerely hope the string of bad luck stops here for her.
thanks so much for the new kit. It's lovely and I can use it for the pix of my new baby doggy... THANKS so much for doing this for us!

So glad to hear Danny is improving! Please continue to keep us informed on his progress and also on your friend. I agree, if the guy is actually supposed to go off to Iraq, he will learn a lot more life lessons than in jail! Thanks so much for the adorable overlays and WA! This kit is so precious!!
So happy that Danny is on the road to recovery. Also, got a kick out of your comments re your son! Oh that revolving door - it just swings open when food and cash are needed. LOL
Have a great weekend.
Thank you for the goodies today. I'm so happy to hear that Danny is doing better.
Thanks for keeping us updated on Danny's progress. It is good that he is coming around even though it may seem slow. So many people never heal from brain injuries~ hopefully he will be one of the lucky ones!!
It is amazing how our Military is now becoming a haven for gangs and such. My whole family has been in the military, and each of them is so proud of their service to their country. Too bad not everyone feels the same.
Also, your friend will continue to be in my prayers. It is amazing how much one person can handle in life. It sure is coming at her from every angle!! She must be an extremely strong woman!!
Left a comment on 4Shared about the kit~ I figured I could comment on everything else here. Thanks!!
lovely addition to your kit.. thank you!!
Glad to hear Danny is improving! Thank you for this latest kit -adorable would be a good word for it! : D
Thank you!! Both for updating us and for the additions to a delightful kit!! Also, thank you for your attitude. It is so compassionate and healthy that I usually tear up when I read your blog. Happy weekend!!!
It seems your neighbour it's getting better, it's really nice to hear that.:) I hope the best for him and his family. And also to your friend best wishes as well as it seems she is not having the best times right now.
Thanks a million for this part of the kit, it's really beautiful.:)
Best wishes. :o)
I'm glad that he is doing better. I have your friend in my prayers also. Love the new kit. Thank you for sharing.
So cute! Thanks bunches.
Thanks for the great overlays. I'm glad Danny is better and your friend does have her plate full. I know God doesn't give us more than we can handle but sometimes that hard to believe. Hope some sunshine comes her way soon. Teresa
Thank you so much for todays part of your fantastic kit.I love it!!:)
Soo glad to hear Danny is doing better.:)My prayers are with him and his family.
Glad to hear about Danny. Will keep him and your friend in my prayers. Quite fitting that you are offering the beautiful angel pages at this time. Thank you.
I'm glad to hear that Danny is doing better. Prayers do help.
I find it interesting that the talk about one of the guys that might be military. Maybe I'm just old, but I remember kids getting in trouble in high school and given the choose of going to jail or joining the service. Most of them didn't even have a diploma under their belt. My husband was one of the last to be drafted and the story's he could tell about the people he served with. What it comes down to is that military are just people, some good and some bad. And we must keep all of them in our prayers....
sorry whine over.....
More beauty...Thank you, Jannidee...;o)
I love this set with it's sweet angel so much...I know I will use it for some of our second daughter's photos...the one who's already arrived in heaven...;o)
She died July 15th 16 years ago but every year at this time both DH and I get a bit down...even so early...it's almost as though we wish July would never come.
P.S. Sending more prayers for Betty & her family...;o)
Hi Jannigirl! Gosh, I just adore this set!!! I check every day to read your tidbits and pick up the new piece! hehe Thank you so much, I sure hope you also include the little alpha you have been using, too! Glad to hear the update on Danny and I hope they catch every one of the persons involved and make them pay for what they have done! You take care hun and thank you again! xox
Thanks so much for todays pieces and for the update about Danny. I am so glad he is doing good, and I am sure your friend will come out fine also. But tell me how are you doing. Are you over your cold? How are you holding up with your other problems? I hope everything is good with you also.
Methinks your Guardian Angel kit is serving more of a purpose than you realize! Glad to hear Danny is doing better. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you again. I am so glad Danny is getting better. I hope that they have at least done something to rid your block of those bad apples in that house. I hope that they dont any of them off and they are all prosecuted to the fullest extent possible.
Wonderful additions to the kit...thank you :)
