What?!? Illness and Sin?!

Rating:	★

I am a bit more than let down here...

The following are words by someone who is on Caseys friends list...
I am shocked and more than a bit hurt as well-

******************************

I just realized something significant...
The Hebrew answer to unexplained illness is sin.
The Christian answer to unexplained illness is lack of faith.
The secular answer to unexplained illness is psychology.
What they all have in common is that they do not believe that illness might be part of God's plan for some and that there must be something lacking in the one with the illness. They all imply that there is something that the one with the illness must have done to deserve the illness.

Just a thought, nothing more."

Back to me again...

I have never deleted/chosen/accepted friends by their beliefs in The Almighty. But I found this entry so wrong...

If this is a thought, nothing more, then why the hell is it started with the author realizing "something significant"?

Do people really feel this way?

Just so you know why I have become almost invisible.

Good Morning Everyone;
After days of wishing my head was in the river somewhere, I am back to a bit more normal. (Whatever THAT is)? hehehe

Been reading a few websites; and the later comments and such about different issues.

One that reached out and grabbed me was regarding brushing teeth after throwing up.

DON'T BRUSH YOUR TEETH!

PLEASE REMEMBER THIS IS A HUGE NO~NO!
CLICK HERE to read why if you don't know this yet.

Your dentist will verify all of the info there.

I awoke yesterday morning at the first crack of thunder- about 3AM. A few minutes later my cell phone rang- Casey, also woken.

The storms weren't bad, just really grumbly, and just enough to allow me to sleep a bit and then BOOM I was awakened again and again.
Gave up that fight and went to the annual rummage sale at Sts. Edward and Isidore in Flintville.

Yes, we have a bar, a church and a graveyard. (All sort of 'related' in a very warped way).

They had lots of stuff- 2 huge rooms full of stuff, and a few other rooms with jewelry, collectibles, holiday things, books, etc

I opted to get a few of these cast iron toys/decorations...

An old nutcracker...

An old cap gun.
.

And a few other cast iron treasures too.

My dad had an old cast iron Studebaker bank. When it got almost full one could shake a quarter or two out of it. But boy was it heavy!
As were these "finds" of mine. (I bought them, carried them out to the car, and then went back in because I wasn't going to lug them around 'til I was done looking around).

** Please forgive the rather raunchy picture quality- I had the camera settings for another project and never gave it a second thought.

As I pulled out of the yard yesterday, there was a gaggle of seagulls in the field across the street, along with this guy.

Noisy but beautiful...

Taken from about 300 yards away-
One of the sand cranes that return every year...
Imagine running into him in a dark alley!
hehehe

Not much other stuff going on.
Rain, rain, and more rain.

Know that we need it, but maybe one sunny day between would be nice?

Enough about Flintville, I hope you are all having sunny days, even if it's raining!

My love to all.

XOXO
Me
