Thursdays #24

[catland]

This is normally about the time we start our Thursdays thread for the week. However, for those of you who haven't seen the post in General, Richard is very concerned over the disappearance his friend's niece, Kayla Johnson.

So for this week, I'm going to light a candle and put it here in the window at Thursdays while we all pray for her safe return.

Please feel free to drop on by if you are so inclined.

Yes, it's going to be a rather somber Thursday. I'm not in a party mood now so will light another candle for Kayla. Also lighting one for Zippy and hoping she's OK too. She hasn't been on for a while.

[catland]

Thank-you Slick, for thinking of Zippy.

Light another one for me. I would say the last 2 weeks haven't been terribly festive with all the sickness, death, etc.....I've managed to get myself into a pretty deep blue funk.

We're thinking of you Richard....

A Candlelight Thursday sounds very appropriate right now.

I just found out that a longtime friend just lost her Mother last night and my heart is going out to her in her loss.

We normally have a lot of fun on Thursdays. It is nice to know that the very same crowd can show up and express concern for Richard at this time "without a drink".

Let's just pray that by Thursday or sooner, that Richard has the best news for us about his friend's daughter being found, safe!

Yes, I miss Zip too, but have decided to leave her alone for a day or two. She deserves a much needed rest.

May the candles' glow reach all of you.

Maybe these candles (add mine) can bring some light to the end of what seems right now to be a very long tunnel, the glimmer & the shine of hope.

Nicely put you guys. Let's all remember the thread Richard started last week about HOPE! We must remain positive and hopeful that things will turn out OK.

[RICHARD]

thanks everyone.

yep,

I was hoping that the 'it happens in threes'
was it for me......I'm praying that is the rule in this case....I've 'used' up my three already.

even more frustrating is the fact that there is NO
place to find a picture -I'm still trying to see if i can find a copy of the sheriff's poster-
I haven't spoke to my BF since monday..

again, I'll keep you all posted and when I see something, I'll post it...

It seems everyone is having a bad week.

Please put a candle in the window for Richard's BF's niece from me. I hope she is found safe and returned home to her family.

Also need one for my nephew who lost his leg after being hit by a drunk driver. This was in May and your prayers helped our family through that horrible time where we weren't sure if he would live. He is having surgery to do some scar tissue repairs on the leg with the hope that they can fit a prothesis.

Need another for his daughter who was just put in the hospital last evening for an evaluation. Her life is not going so well at this time and she is struggling emotionally.

And last but not least light one for my dear sister who is trying to help her whole family and is herself struggling. She's been clean and sober for 8+ years now and still holding strong. God bless her!

Candles lit from me too for all.
I believe the 19th is the one year anniversary of Zippy's precious bunny, Sophie, going to the RB. I hope she can see the light of all the candles from there and know how much she is missed.

I also hope they are bright enought for Kayla to see and find her way safely home.

So much sadness of late Yes, it's a good time to light a candle and hope that things work out for the best.

Thanks again everyone!!


Your prayers and thoughts are most welcome.


I'd like to extend my thoughts and prayers to Zip and Sophie, everyone in Robin's 'nest' and everyone else with ailing people/little ones close to them.

I will light a candle for kayla in hopes of her a safe return and for everyone out there who is I need of anything tonight. Let us all keep Kayla in our thoughts.

Lovely idea - a candlit Thursday. To bring hope and light to all the souls who need it. It'll be dark here in an hour and a half - the candles already in the window to light.

Kayla please come home sweetheart - where ever you are please know how much your parents love you.

For everyone hurting - please God grant them peace. {{{Hugs}}}
