    Add me to the circle, too! My prayers are with everyone for positive auras in all situations, be it physical, personal, or financial. In my case all three! Hugs and prayers, Lisa

    OK, I need to get some sleep. Anyone on the night shift want to take over with my shotgun? I promise to sleep with one eye open, in case my sisters need anything.

    Prayers for comfort and recovery.

    The fire is burning reflecting on the faces of our sisters, wood stacked to the side for the night, coffee and water for the hot chocolate is on, voices are getting softer and some are down for the night. The night owls are already on watch and the cool night air feels so good. Not sure where the cowboy is at the moment but some of these gals can sure keep you laughing. The joy and comfort of these sisters brings tears to my eyes.

    Lord, we lift our friends who are facing this mountain and have a steep climb to the top. We are all hurting for them and as we share in their fears we are also realizing some of our own. Bless them, heal them, give them strength for the days ahead, may they feel only the peace and comfort you can give and may they know their friend is holding their hand in the darkness and lonliness of the night. May tomorrow bring hope. May they feel the love of the many sisters who too will walk to the top of the mountain with them.

    Rest well, sisters. We have wraped you in love and prayers.

    Brenda - That brought tears to my eyes. You have a way with words. Thank you.

    Peggy - It looks like the catfight is over. Plenty of cowboys for all the cowgirls. Don't forget a little something for yourself.

    I love all of my sisters and wish them all pleasant dreams!

    Brenda that was pure poetry.

    I will take my usual shift.
    I see I have company thanks to Peggy.
    um, Well I guess you could call it
    Cowgirl Up.

    (I will take a double shift just to be thorough)

    Brenda, thank you for those beautiful words. I have pisted them above, everyone should see this.
    Thanks for the dancing cowboys too. One minute I am crying the next I am laughing.
    I'm here now, just got home from work. I am ready to take over for a little while and pray with all my heart. As soon as I grab a cup of jo and let one of those cowboy twirl this little lass round a few times.

    Hi Dear Ones,
    I have been riding around the outer wagon perimeter all night, armed and watching out for the slightest sign of the wretched beast.
    The night is quiet, rest well.You are loved, you are loved.
    And loved too, the faithful defneders.Brenda, you are absolutely beautiful!Thank you!!With such defending sisters, how can everything not be all right?
    NoSurrender, I hope you have gone to sleep.I will finish up the shift.The air is crisp, the stars are bright, even the girls who can't sleep are sleeping!I'm comfortable, but vigalent.By the time I sleep, the sun will be coming up, morning shift will be here.You all can party merrily with those cowboys, and make coffee on the campfires!(Owls and bats are used to noisy sleeping!)
    Rest well everyone.Love,j

    Well, Im joining vicki with the early morning watch. Brought some fresh coffee and tea.

    The sun is starting to peak over the horizon. Daylight will be here soon. We stand strong and we stand tall.

    I just saw a falling star and made my wish.

    Now i'm stomping my foot and Im saying "I made as hell and Im not gonna take it anymore." So there - as I am sticking out my tongue.

    I'm back up as well. Shotgun in one hand, coffee in the other. Glad to know it was a peaceful night.

    You gals who handled the night shift might want to go get some rest.

    Ok all of the noise from the "fine hunks" has awakened me. I see that we are protecting even more of our "sister". No problem, we are all strong enough to protect. Much love....

    OK ladies, I have to admit that I spent last night in bed with the covers over my head crying, but I’m back now. I’m done with scared and sad and I’m moving on to ANGRY. Got my shotgun and I’m packing 2 extra pistols. I’ll be hog-tied before anything gets past me today! The beast doesn’t have a chance…I’m a great shot even when I’m mad…maybe especially when I’m mad.

    Hugs to the night shift. You are ALL the best….

    Deb - why do things always get to us when we are under the covers. It all hit me this am, I put on my iPod, laid in bed and had myself a good cry over all of this. Got up, showered and I am also ready to face the day- kicking some cancer ass! Stand back, what's that saying about a "....woman's fury"
    Oh Peg, what a beautiful cowboy chica you found and I love those two guys.
