What's Been Goin' On...

Hello friends ---

Sorry it's been awhile since I've surfaced.  Been spending time with one of the most important people in my life - my dear little sister!  The past 3 weeks have been a whirlwind - diagnosed with ovarian cancer, surgery and chemo started.  She's healing from her surgery, learning to manage her pain and nausea levels, and trying to get some much-needed sleep and rest her mind.  God is always good and He shows her daily that He's taking care of her.  The out-pouring of love, flowers, cards, meals from her church and work communities has been a testament of her love of people and her love of the Lord.  The hospital staff and even her surgeon have all commented that they have NEVER had such a crowd of people at the hospital in and out and some staying all day long to show their love and support of my dear sis.  There has been a steady stream of folks coming by her home to see her and leave meals.  I've been spending time with her and am taking our parents to her house tomorrow.  Thank you all for your prayers and your kind thoughts!  I treasure each and every one!
She's on the right - isn't she beautiful?  And just as beautiful on the inside!  Everyone loves her for she loves everyone first!   Thank you in advance for keeping her in prayer.  She has a long way to go - about 18-21 weeks of chemo - but she's strong in the Lord and with His help, she's going to overcome!

In other news, the garden's about in - just got my tomatoes planted.  It's a bit smaller this year as recent events have called me away, but it's done and I just feel like the Lord has blessed me with multiplied time this year.  He knows what we needed before we even ask!

My son, Adam Fears, the country-music singer/songwriter has released a new single ---

"There's A Girl Out There"

It's a great song, if I do say so myself!  (I'm a proud mama)  It was released to country radio this Monday past and you can call and request your local station very SOON to play it if you like!  The more hits he gets the better his single will rise up the country music charts.  That's how new artists get started, so get your phones ready and get requesting as soon as I get the green light from Adam!!!  Please!  If your local station doesn't have it yet, the station can go to 
http://allaccess.com to request it.  They have to be a member I think.

Now just look at that smile!  Don't you think a handsome guy like Adam needs to be a country music star???
They shot a music video (which I've seen) and it is awesome!  It won't be played unless the song does good, so that's another reason to request his new song! He's been playing, writing and singing since he was in high school, and been working his rear off in Nashville for the last 7 1/2 years.  I think it's high time that he succeeds, don't you?


This is a popular place to hear Adam's new song - check it out! and share with anyone you want!  He has a twitter account, too - I think it's

I'll try to get around and do some visiting - it's just been so hectic - Thank you all again for your friendship and your caring!  Sending you all a Big Ole Texas Hug!!!
