When Life Gives You Lemons!

Good evening! Friday blog! I choose pie for Denny, his favorite! Although, we do like lemonade! I think our whole family does! Lemons are beautiful and there is a number of things you can do with them! In our 42 years, we have had some bumps on our road! Sour lemons! Some normal bumps, that we did not know or were equipped mentally to handle! It happens if you do not have good people skills! The teenage years can bring a few bumps, not good if you have not learned the proper way to handle punishment or be able to sit down and talk! Once again regret wants to creep in! You have to go, I do not have time for you! Our children and grandchildren know how much we love them! I just did not know I was suppose to take care of me! I just thought I was suppose to be there all the time, day and night! I always had it all done, I wanted to look like I could handle it all! But on the inside I was flawed! I am so happy and so thankful that I really was able to rise above! Our years when we did not know we were bipolar, now that’s a big bag of lemons! I have made a lot of lemon pie! When Denny first started falling, that can put a glitch in your day! Coming home from somewhere finding him down! Countless rescue runs, hospital stays! I was not prepared! I felt like I was choking on lemons! I loved this man for so long and I did not know what to do! Really, in all reality, I was sicker than Denny! I am so thankful for a family that still loves me! That looked past the sin and saw a sick lost woman that knew an illness was taking the one person away that I had always depended on! All of our hearts were broken! Our daughter said to me, you and dad always were able to hate the sin and love the sinner! Meaning we did something right! Sour lemons does not mean you have to give up! Never stop looking for something to make with those lemons! In the end, we will be eating lemon pie all together at that big banquet table! With Jesus, the giver of lemons! Choose love and lemon pie! Our family loves lemon pie! Have a great night! God bless!❤️🤗🤗❤️🍋🥧🍋
