    Are you over 40? Has it been awhile since you’ve visited your doctor or had any blood work done? As you age, a myriad of changes occur on the outside and inside of your body.

    Prayer Sunday

    I have to parrot Sonya Sunday’s get here quicker and quicker. Except I kind of feel like everyday is Sunday or maybe it’s a Tuesday. I don’t know. I can’t believe how many times during the week I ask Alexa what day is it? I use to only ask her what the weather was….. I miss those days. My friend Sonya at Sonya’s Happenings and I would love to welcome you to our Sunday Prayer Requests. This is a place for you to post about struggles, troubles or just whine. This isn’t a regular prayer list, we just want to send out encouragement, virtual hugs, good thoughts and prayers too. We are all here for one another. I thought I was having problems with motivation before Covid 19, that was nothing! I am so bored, sad, bored, antsy, blah, unmotivated anyway you get the point. This sheltering in place is like Mother Nature sending me to my room LONG TERM. Yes, originally, it’s where I wanted to be but now, I want OUT!! Anyway, there is no better time than now for a weekly prayer request. My friend Sonya at Sonya’s Happenings and I would love to welcome you to our Sunday Prayer…

My friend Sonya at Sonya’s Happenings and I would love to welcome you to our Sunday Prayer Requests.

SO MANY prayers need to be sent out to the universe for the people that work in the medical profession and even stores! I am so thankful that I am able to shelter in place. So, if you are new here; Sunday Prayer List is a way…
