the need for a dining room set

-
When I was a child, my mom used to tell me that she really believed that dreams can come true and that if I really pray and wish to have something with all of my heart, I just might get it at the right time. What she had wished for at that time was a beautiful house with an orchard. We would take a stroll together and then we would stare at the exact house that she liked and then wished long and hard for it. Even though that dream never got fulfilled during her lifetime, I believe that her dream was more than fulfilled UP there.

Well, anyway, even though our house was nothing like the house that my mom dreamed about having, I still am thankful that we have settled here. My dream is for us to finally be able to make the improvements on it someday. Also, I've been wanting to get us a new Dining Room Set. I've seen the need to own one because when my in-laws or my family would come over, we could not get them properly seated during dinner time. It seems like it will take awhile to be able to finally turn that into a reality but I'll patiently wait for better times.

    I do hope your wish comes true. I think it will in time though.

    When you do get your dining set, how about I come over & have dinner with y'all? ;)

    I believe your dream is possible! And I also agree that I bet your mom's dream has been fulfilled in heaven!

    Thank you for your two comments on my tidbits and more tidbits posts last week!

    There are a lot of methods in making our wishes come true. One is praying. Another is purposeful thinking or imaging. They say that what you wish for and constantly project in your mind's eyes will come into reality somehow, someway. But the best of course is combining praying with imaging. We can pray to God about what we want and visualize the thing that we are praying for. If our faith is strong enough and if our prayer is consonant with the will of God, our prayers will be granted. Thanks for the post. God bless you all always.

how are you holding up?

After giving birth, I must confess that some things are happening with my body that I have very little to no control of. Among other things, it seemed like my bladder could not always do its part of holding up urine a little longer than it used to. I am talking about urinary incontinence. I thought incontinence can only be experienced by the elderly or those that are already past their retirement age but I was wrong. I didn't even think that a laughter can trigger a flow from my bladder. This actually bothered me for awhile but after a few reads on the Internet and after a word from a doctor (especially), I was somehow appeased. To be honest, my urinary incontinence experience came to a point that I had to rely on these diapers and nappies for adults for awhile but after following a few exercises ( Kegel exercises) that can help strengthen the muscles in my pelvic area, I was able to manage it well. Of course, it was not like I have totally dealt with it or gotten rid of it
