By now most of you know that my best friend was murdered last Saturday. Well they had her services today in Oregon. Which were as beautiful as she is. When I get back to her moms house my grandma called me. She told me that my great grandma passed away this morning around midnight. She waited to tell me so I could focus on Nikki. So needless to say 2 deaths in 7 days in not doing wonders for my spirit right now. I know there is one more coming they always come in 3's. So I best just hang on for the ride at this point.


:( :argh :yuck:

Let me just say thank you. I would be a hold lot worse off if I did not have your support. I am pretty much floored at this point and numb from the loses. I did not even completely mourn one loss and then I am facing another one. I try to remember that God never gives us more then we can handle. Dang how strong does he think I am.

One the other hand when I got home this afternoon I had a letter from Anthony which put a smile on my face and just let me sigh and breathe finally. I am just hangin out in some sweats not doing anything. I am always so busy so it is nice to take a few hours just to unwind and slow down. I should try this more often.

Thank you for all of your support. I had a pretty rough day and it is nice to come and see the support and love that everyone is showing for me. Just keep praying. They think they caught her husband at the canadian board. We will know tomorrow so keep your fingers crossed. Let's get this weak, pathetic fool off the streets.

I am so so sorry to hear such hard news, all at the same time for you. Just remember, G-D only gives us what we can handle, plus he has given you all of us and speaking for myself, I will keep you in my prayers and if there is anything I can do, just say the word.

Shortie:

My prayers are with you... This seems almost like a Nightmare. I know it must to you.

Challenges only have a tendency to make us stronger if we can make it through them. Death is sometimes a blessing even though we hurt to loose our loved ones. God will take care of them so much better than they have been taken care of here on Earth. Especially in the situation of your best friend. We will never understand the why's of situations.

I have thought about that very thing that death can be a blessing. For my grandma I think it was. I guess I will never understand why a 25 yr old woman has to die like she did. It was not a nice thing and he was very brutal. I think I would have taken it better if the method of death would have been different. It's just that rage killing is so messy and painful cus really the only two people who know all the details are the victim and the offender. Of course God too.... So with one person still breathing who is going to basically fight for there life you will never understand why in a non bias way.

Shortie- I believe God takes home his children early when they are not doing well in their life...I am sure your friend had a hard life so I feel God gave took her home to be with him...and perhaps he has a lesson for others with this event..it is time that the world opened their eyes to domestic violence..too many woman die at the hands of their "loved" ones..I just heard a commercial tonite that said 2 women each week will die in Texas at least!! That is outrageous!! Well I am rambling just remember your friend is in another place no more fear, pain, or hurt..she is totally at peace and she is with you always!!!

I know she is in a better place and I thank GOD for it.. She did have a pretty good childhood but as an adult is was a little bad.. I know he has a plan for everything so I try not to question it in any way.. He is my rock and my fortress... To HIM I will always lean to ....
