God has given me a bucket list, and I am hoping on Him to fulfill it and bring it to pass soon.
My desire for this life is to walk in these goals and dreams He has given me, -

I am thinking about a country called Moldova, in Europe.

I can share some of the dreams He has given me....

I want to buy several apartments in the country I am now living.
(God knows how many, more than a few..... ) - but I currently lack the finances...
He will bring it to pass, as He has promised.. Please pray for this, if you will, for Him to do it speedily.

I have a request before Him that I am waiting for Him to answer.

With the money I earn from renting out these apartments, in my country,
I want to establish factories and create jobs for the people in Moldova.

Hire people, and help them out of poverty.
I want to target the really troubled areas there.
Help our brothers and sisters in need.

Hire workes to strengthen houses, and so on....

This is some of what He has laid on my heart....

Since I plan on dying soon, get my living will and medical directive in place...
Planning on dying, that doesn't sound hopeful. Why don't you plan on living Ps 118:17 'I shall NOT die but live and declare the works of Jehovah'.

Those in Christ never die...they sleep. You are a beacon in this world and shall be missed. I pray when that day comes it is with peace and joyful anticipation.

I just heard about it last week. I'm not sure how I feel about that, I like people having a choice in medical care, and a single hospital system takes a lot of choice away. Otherwise, it's pretty exciting for the hos
pital system for sure
I agree. I'm with SRMC in the NICU. Since the merger they have been sending me to different areas to teach the policy and procedure part of Regional. Today for my second time I was sent to work with the psych nurses. I've gotten punched in the chin and today scratched across my face. I'm so not a psych nurse. Lol. I'm too easy a target. They are sweet and I want to comfort them and I end up getting popped ! My current bucket list is to just find food and sleep so I can make it through tomorrow.

Now come on sister, what kind of talk is that? How do you know your work in Christ is done? Could you continue to live, even though you suffer, to complete something for Jesus? Our suffering is how He completes us. Here is where He is speaking of Paul's coming ministry:

Acts 9:15-17 "But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel: For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake. And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost. And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized."

The Lord had just given Paul his sight back in Damascus. His suffering was just starting.

Out of those 32 states, which did you enjoy most?

I have lived in Michigan, Tennessee, Maine, and Florida but of the states that I have visited I would say Nevada as we were married in Las Vegas on Thanksgiving Day 2014. My favorite state to live in would probably be Tennessee. My wife and I are planning to relocate there sometime this year. We miss the change of seasons, even winter, though I must say I can more easily get through a Tennessee winter than a Michigan or Maine one that tends to last for much longer than 3 months with extensive snowfall and sleet. I lived in Clarksville for 3 years when I was stationed at Ft. Campbell, KY in the early 80's. Mild winters, cold one day, warm the next. Averaged about 10 inches of snow a year. In Maine it was closer to 80 inches. There it is cold one day and bitter cold the next.

I know that, but you need to keep that depression in check. My brother gave up on life and wished himself into a case of lung cancer. I mean, he was talking about it long before he had it. He kept smoking and drinking and thinking doom and gloom until it finally happened. :cool::love::)

My depression only flares up in winter. Basically from first snow to whenever it goes away.. lol

And with all the diseases in my family, one of them is gonna finish me off some day soon.. I've always said I hope to die before I turn 50. Well, I turn 50 next year sooo....
