If you guys read the Bison this week (I read it on the net) then you will know
that Jason Darden has been called to active duty and is to be deployed to
Egypt. I have know Jason since high school and he is such a sweet person.
Please pray that God will keep him safe in this war.
Also I am trying to make some changes in my life but I am discovering the price
of these changes. I am not sure it is a price I am willing to pay. I am not
ready to say what these changes are but if I make them I hope they will be
evident in everything I say and do when I return this spring. Pray that God
will give me the wisdom to know what to do.
Also pray that I will get to direct Everyman. I really want to do this. I have
done what I can so far but now the decision is up to Mr. Miller and Dr. Ellis.
Please pray that they will allow me to put on this show.

One of the guys in my RPG has been called to active duty, another is off to
boot camp next month, and part of the unit that one of the members of HUE is
assigned to got called to active duty. He doesn't know yet if he is one of the
ones called to be active.

I also know Jason. He is a very sweet man. I didn't know you had known him in
high school or I would have told you when he spoke in chapel a few weeks ago.
It was so awesome. He delivered a great message. While I know he was nervous
about being called to active duty, I have a feeling that his faith in God has
kept him very strong.

Dear Sisters,
I am asking for very specific prayers. As many of you know, Susan and I are
military wives. Dale is in training right now, and Tim wants to be. This
bombing of Afgahnistan has several people very worried and with good reason. I
haven't heard from Dale in about a week and a half, and I'm not really sure
when I will here from him. Please keep all of America's military in your
prayers, but please pray that Susan and I can be strong for our husbands.
In Him,
Melinda

Please also remember my cousin Marc. He is in the Air Force and is one of the
people in charge of the ICBMs. (If you don't know what that is go ask Tim.) My
dad has several former students who are in the military so please be praying
for Russel Jones (USAF), Kiya McCain (US Navy), and Casey Thompson (US Navy).
There are two students at HUE who are in the National Guard, Jacqueline Dillon
and Chris Coffee, and we really don't want them to be called to active duty
because then they would have to leave us. Please keep these people in your
prayers as well.

Subject: Health problem
Hey guys. I need to do some explaining for you to understand this. Last
Thursday I had a root canal and the dentist gave me ibuprofen with codiene for
the pain. Sunday afternoon it knocked me out until right before we left for the
evening service. I had just enough time to take another dose of the medicine
and wash it down but I did not have time to eat anything. Hence I took the
codiene on an empty stomach. Bad idea. That was at 5:30. By 6 I was feeling
horrible and by 7 I was throwing up. I continued to be sick for about 4 hours.
During that time I was coughing very badly. It now seems that I did something
to my esaphuagus during that time because it constantly hurts and when I woke
up this morning it caused too much pain when I swallowed for me to be able to
eat. It also feels like my breathing is being constricted at times. I have a
doctor's appointment today at 10:30. Please be praying for me.

Hey gals, and guys. Things went well at the doctor's office yesterday. She gave
me some stuff to numb my throat. Now I just have to recover from having only 4
meals (consisting of 1/2 donut, 2 large orders of fries that I didn't finish,
and a slice of pizza that I barely finished) in the last 3 days. You can
probably guess that my blood sugar dropped and that I got really cranky from
the hunger pains. Well, I'll see yall next week. Later.

Hi!!!
For all of you that do not know already I will be back at school this fall. I
am a impact leader with Kira so I will be there as of this next Wednesday. I
ask that everyone will pray for all of the students to return safe and sound to
campus. Many people are traveling coming back from vacations and others will be
moving back in soon. Also my roommate Christina her grandma has over 70 percent
blockage on her heart and they will have to do surgery.

although most of you out there already know that Ann R.'s family needs our
prayers continue to pray for them. If you want to know the details then I
suggest you email her but she could use some encouragement. Also it was
announced at church yesterday that Mr. Gardner is in the hospital in L.R. with
diabetes complications. I have been going through alot of emotions this summer
and I am thinking of not coming back. Or even if I do come back then only for
the first semster. My parents are going through a very hectic move.

Subject: Thoughts of the deadly nature
To those who haven't heard yet, my dad waited until I had one pill left to
reorder my Paxil. That was roughly three weeks ago. Two weeks after the
prescription was sent in to the new Rx company, insurance change, my mom called
to find out what was up and why I had not recieved it yet. They said they had
just recieved the order. My mom is also on Paxil but she has a lower dosage,
half of what I take. Mom gave me what was left of hers and is making do without
until both of our refills come in. I am on half of what I normally take and I
am about to run out of that. My work situation is not the most Christian
environment. That has cause problems of its own. Things are finally getting
better there but now my brother is home and is making life hellish for me.
Thoughts of suicide are never far from my mind and today I started thinking
about hurting Michael in some way, like running over him with my car. I really
need prayers but I also need to hear from everyone that I am in your thoughts.
It is really important to hear that you all care for me. That will go a long
ways toward helping me get through this tough time.
Love you all.

Subject: A Death in XEA
Hey guys I know that we are all excited about Alethia Thompson but I recieved
some bad news immediately after she was born. David Dyche, a member of Chi
Sigma Alpha and i think a resident of Searcy, died Sunday morning after a
battle with cancer. There are many Chi Sigs who knew him here in Atlanta. We
need to keep all of the Chi Sigs, and members of Regina and Shantih, who knew
him in our prayers. We all understand what it is like to lose a club member, so
OEGE and King's Men should support Chi Sigma Alpha begin the new semester next
month without one of their members.

My cousin Philip is in jail again. This is the third or fourth time in the past
year. I'm so worried about him because he doesn't want to get better. And he
won't until that desire is in his heart. So please, in your prayers this week,
keep him in them. His court date is next week. It's highly possible that he
will go to the state prison this time.
Thanks for being my Sisters,

Subject: Family Feud
I hate to bring this up because it will be long in explaining. My cousin and
her husband have been abusive to their kids, and they're living in absolute
squalor.
The state has finally stepped in and taken the kids, (3 Ashley 9, Randall 8,
and Beka 2) This is a good thing. Their foster mom is an angel, and my aunt
(Joyce) has been getting to take the kids to church and getting unsupervised
visits.
This however is a tension point, my cousin and her husband are not allowed
unsupervised visits. And my cousin's husband has been threatening my aunts life
because of this. Until he's either in jail or stops threatening.. My aunt can't
safely file for custody of her grandchildren, nor can she have them visit her
house until their father lets down.
He didnt show up at the family picnic with a shotgun, but he may anyhow. He did
call 3 times and Joyce was crying. I dont know what to do but pray that the
kids can find peace in all this, and that the situation can fizzle out without
too much hassle.
Thanks for listening.

Here is a big praise for me. Some of you know that I had a bad experience with
my first job and that I am glad that I no longer have to put that employer on
any job applications. Well I was over at the grocery store which is right next
to the Hallmark where I had worked. I have avoided that part of the strip mall
since I was fired so that I would not have to risk running into my ex-boss.
Today I saw that the Hallmark is moving. I know that it is irrational to fear
someone I haven't seen in four years but this woman can make my life very
difficult if she wants too. In fact she has already tried to do that to me and
another former employee in the past. Anyway I no longer have to worry about
running into that woman (note I refuse to use her name) when I go shopping
anymore.

PS. The ostrich beanie baby named "Strech" is retired meaning that it is no
longer made. I got one today at half the retail price. Tee hee.

Okay after much stressing my grandpa's wedding has come and gone. Wanda is not
the she-demon that my uncle wanted us to think she was. She has two daughters
and a son as well as four grandkids (2 boys, 2 girls). All of my new cousins
are younger than me so I am no longer the youngest. They are aged 15, 13, 12,
and 9. And they are all really good kids. We are already getting along with my
new aunts and uncles well. And all of the grandkids (grandpa's and Wanda's)
have already planned what to do for Christmas as far as presents go since there
are now eight of us. My dad's side of the family has more than doubled in only
one day. The bed and breakfast we stayed at was so comfortable. I woke up to
the sight of the smoke coming off the Great Smokey Mountains (eat your heart
out Aardvark). I sooooo love the Apalachian Mountains and if Heaven exists on
Earth it has to be in the Smokies. It was sooooo beautiful. We had a four
poster bed that was incredibly soft. I had been given a room to myself across
the hall from my parents but I ended up staying on the next floor with my
cousins LeAnn and Constance. And of course with LeAnn, Constance, and myself
together we went looking for mischeif. We found it in the form of corrupting
our new 15 year old cousin Adam. He's actually kinda cute though LeAnn and
Constance would say that he is jail bait. The guy at the B and B that organized
everything was a major hottie. My mom was able to find out that he just
finished his freshman year at Tennessee Tech in Cookeville and here I was
thinking that he was at least 23. He's no older than me. Well that is enough
for now. Have to save some stuff to tell you guys in person. TTYL. --- Mel

The good news is that fighting with my parents is down to one minimal thing..
MONEY.
I still dont have a job, and I've been home 2 weeks. I did have 1 interview-
and they told me they'd call about a 2nd one today. Well its nearly 3 and I
havent heard from anyone.
My temp agency has me on a limb as well, theres no one hiring them- so no one
hiring me either. Arrgh.
Jake and I are planning a trip to CT to check out the area and allow me to
catch up with friends and family out there (Its been 5 years since I lived at
home, 3 years since I've seen anyone) Its a great idea, a great bonding thing
for us... But If I dont have any money- the trips going to be impossible.
Anyways. Thank you for praying for my family, things are better than I
expected.
Talk soon *~Lyzzi~*

Um here's the deal. Grandpa's getting remarried June 23rd and he and my step-
grandma-to-be have already paid for a hotel room for my family so we kinda
sorta hafta go. This is awkward because dad thinks that grandpa shouldn't be
getting remarried and mom thinks they are rushing things a bit. Michael escaped
the situation by being in Scotland (I don't know if he will be back in time for
the wedding). I'm stuck in the middle of that and some other sticky situations.
It's kinda of like having an elephant in the living room that no one wants to
talk about. I have heard a little about her (like her name is Wanda (wasn't
that the evil lady in Problem Child 2)) and from the few other things I've
heard about her (like her judgement of my uncle upon meeting him) I already
like her. I'm just nervous about meeting her and my new aunts and uncles and
cousins and so forth. If any one has any advice for me before the wedding
PLEASE help me. This is the first time anyone in my family has had a step-
relative (to my knowledge and Uncle Terry and Aunt Ruth's relationship doesn't
count because it is just weird).

Okay, first thing is to pray, and the second is to stay calm as you can. Third,
think of yourself not as stuck in the middle, but as neutral-kinda like Poland,
but with better defenses. That's about all the advice I can give b/c I haven't
been through that sort of stuff before, and you don't have to take it if you
don't want to either. Oh, and above all, DON'T FORGET TO BREATH! Prov. 17:17

Hey, everyone! Some of you may remember that right before the end of the
semester, I requested prayer for my grandmother. She had just found out she had
a large unknown mass on her ovary. I am very happy to say that it was a
nonmalignant fibroid tumor. It was pushing on her other internal organs, but
they completely removed it without any permanent damage to anything else. They
also did a hysterectomy so that this could not happen again. She is now home
from the hospital and fretting because my aunt, who is a surgical nurse, will
not let her get up more. As most of us know, crankiness is the first sign of a
recovery. Praise be to God!

I read all of your prayer requests, so I wanted to let you all know that I will
be praying for you. I also need some prayers.
First off, do you remember the little Honda I was driving at the end of the
school year? I don't have it anymore. I had to return it because I could not
find a summer job that would pay enough to allow me to keep it. It needed a lot
of general repairs to get done, so it caused a lot of arguements which are
still going on, and the car got voluntary repossessed. Now, my dad is trying to
make me out to be the "lazy bum who wouldn't get a full time job to keep up
with the payments" AFTER saying that all I needed to do was get a part time job
to pay the payments. He did NOT say anything about a FULL time job. I didn't
even want the thing in the first place. My parents didn't ask me if I wanted my
name on the title, they didn't ask if I'd be willing to pay for it, they didn't
ask me if I'd be willing to learn to drive a standard, and they didn't ASK me
to take care of all of the repairs. Also, my dad put a date on the time I had
to find a job. I'm sorry, but jobs just don't get handed out according to a
time schedual laid out by parents. It just doesn't happen.
Second off, I am accused of not helping around the house. 'scuse me for asking,
but who did most of the laundry last week? Yeah, that was me.
Thirdly, that all has my mom in a rage against dad and a bit against me, so
there's that.
I'm a little stressed, and a little angry.
Thanks for reading my vented spleen.

Okay this is kinda odd but here goes. I found out the day before I came home
from school that my Grandpa Chaffin, the one who was widowed back at induction,
is getting remarried and moving back to Tennessee next month. My dad seems to
be having a hard time dealing with it and does not seem to like the idea. I'm
not sure what to think. I don't know how my mom is handling it and I don't even
know if Michael has been told yet. This is kind of an awkward situation for us.

Hey guys. This is kinda hard for me to say especially since when I told some of
you about it, I thought it was over. For those who don't know, my brother
physically and emotionally abused me while we were growing up. I thought that
it was over. He hadn't laid a hand on me in anger for nearly a year. His
disparaging remarks were becoming more infrequent. In short, I thought he had
changed and that I would not have to be afraid of him any more. I found out
Sunday that I was wrong. He made several remarks against who I am and, to a
certain degree about you, my friends. He also provoked me to the point of
hitting him in defense. He didn't hit me but he was trying to physically force
me to do something I did not want to do. Please pray for me. I know this has to
end but I don't know how I will do so.
