Hi Phil,
Yes, I am diabetic. Oh, I really liked what you said, and thanks for
the encouragement. I know I need to exercise, and yes, I have also
heard that it helps with depression. I hate exercising, but I guess I
better do it.
Oh, I just love picking on Vernon. <grin> lol. You know I squeeze him
every single day. lol.
Phil, you and Sandy are one of many friends that I have and love.
Jesus is our best friend. He is wonderful, and I talk to him every single day.
Thanks so very much.
Love,
Pat Ferguson
