NextImg:The Classical Saturday Morning Coffee Break & Prayer Revival



Good morning Horde. August keeps rolling along. Chilly morning here, so plenty of coffee to be consumed.

Before we get into what is good for us and our Prayer Revival, just a few housekeeping matters to go over. (Rulz for those of you in Black River Falls)

  1. This is an open thread, please feel free to lurk, opine and/or bloviate.
  2. Be nice to one another. And please don't jump on the furniture.
  3. Running with sharp objects? You are on your own. Do you feel lucky?
  4. Have a nice weekend.

Moron in good standing, Hrothgar, wants you to drink you caffeine. His advice proves he is a giver. Kind of like me.

PHILADELPHIA -- Coffee and tea intake were associated with long-term cognitive changes in older adults, two prospective studies presented at the Alzheimer's Association International Conferenceopens in a new tab or window (AAIC) suggested.

Among 6,001 Health and Retirement Studyopens in a new tab or window participants in the U.S., drinking two or more cups of coffee a day was associated with a 28% lower risk of dementia over 7 years compared with drinking less than one daily cup (P<0.05), reported Changzheng Yuan, ScD, of the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health in Boston and the Zhejiang University School of Medicine in China, in a poster presented at the meeting.


Thank you Annie for the following:

Please submit any prayer requests to me, “Annie’s Stew” at apaslo atsign hotmail dot com. Prayer requests are generally removed after four weeks unless we receive an update.

Prayer Requests:

6/15 – Grumpy and Recalcitrant asked for continued prayers for J.J. Sefton of the Morning Report. He is about to begin chemo and radiation therapy.
8/6 Update – J.J.’s final chemo and radiation treatments were on 8/4 and 8/5. There’s a four week wait until the first post-treatment MRI. He’s hoping to regain energy and more of an appetite in that time. Please continue to pray for J.J.’s recovery and restoration to full health.

6/25 – TP asked for prayers for JT, who is ill and in need of prayer.
8/2 Update – JT is in a rehab facility. Prayers are appreciated.

6/29 – bluebell passed along a request from grammie winger, who asked for prayers for her husband, Rev, who is having open heart surgery on 7/8 to take care of his aortic aneurysm. Recovery time is expected to be 6-8 weeks.
8/3 Update – Grammie winger posted that Rev had emergency surgery, and now has a colostomy bag. She said it’s not as fun as it sounds…..

7/18 – Annie’s Stew sends prayers of thanks for God’s protection of President Trump.

7/18 – “Norman Spiny” requested prayers for his lovely wife, Cindy (married 33 years) who passed away on 7/20 due to metastatic breast cancer.

7/20 – Defenestratus asked for prayers for an aunt and uncle. The aunt just passed away after battling her second round of brain cancer. Her first bout was 34 years ago. The uncle has been distraught, and now they found a benign tumor at the base of his skull that is causing a blood vessel to be pinched. This is causing vision issues for him. They have to wait until next month to see if it is operable.

7/20 – barbarausa asked for prayers for her son. He has gone off the deep end again, and just got kicked out of rehab, after being kicked out of his last group home. He is calling her, asking her to come get him, and she cannot. She can’t take care of him, or keep him on his psych meds, or keep him in treatment, or live with the psychotic breaks.

7/21 – Nan in AZ asked for prayers for her doctors and her mom. Nan is in the hospital with possible cardiac issues. Nan’s dad passed away last month, so they are still dealing with that loss.

7/22 – Sponge’s First Lady is home and resting comfortably. The surgery went well and the doctor was pleased. They did remove some lymph nodes that looked suspect, but did not have to remove much mass around the cancer. They will have the results of the tests on the nodes next week. Thank you for the continued prayers as she has only just begun this whole thing.
8/8 Update – One of the lymph nodes had cancer cells in it. She’ll start chemo in a couple of weeks, but for now it will be once a week for 12 weeks, then different meds once every 2 weeks for 4 weeks, then radiation for 5 weeks. They send thanks to all for your support.

7/24 – Pooky’sGirl requested prayers for her SiL, who lost her mother to an MS-related aneurysm a few months ago, just found out that her father has pancreatic cancer.

8/3 – Black Orchid asked for prayers for her usual August blues, from taking the kids back to school/college. They love their schools and are excited to go back, but it can be sad.

8/3 – Our Country is Screwed asked for prayers for his 27 year old daughter. She is having breast cancer surgery in a week. The Mrs. and he will be heading out to be with her.

8/5 – bonhomme posted that her mother-in-law fell and shattered her femur. Her surgery went well, but it’s going to be a long recovery.

8/6 - LMD Outer Banker requested prayers for a son who is undergoing an experimental treatment for chronic Lyme disease, which he has been battling for 25 years. He will be in a clinic abroad for about a month.

We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair, persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed.
