LONG OVERDUE---

Wow, it has been a long time since I posted. I just thought id share a little bit of what the Lord has been doing in my life recently. :-)
First off, I can mention enough how wonderful and forgiving the Lord is to us. He is someone that I can always turn to if I need someone to talk to. He always listens to me, when I feel like no one understands me. And most importantly He has given me eternal life because of His son who died for ME! One word: Unbelievable.

One big thing that happened this summer was my acceptance to Practical Nursing school. First day is August 15th, and I am so excited. I would love to be thought of in your prayers while I am going to school. Its an intense 8a-4p, Monday - Friday program. Lord-willing I will be done in June.

If you would please keep my grandparents (both sides) in your prayers. My grandpa schiete is doing so much better since he had surgery in early March. I want so badly to see all of my family everday... sometimes I dislike living so far away from my family over the U.S. But, I know that the Lord has everything planned out perfectly and I just have to keep trusting Him.

I guess this little post is just a 'venting' post. But... I have been so frustrated and tired. I just needed to type.

What's funny is that... I get so frustrated sometimes and then I think of what the Lord has done for and given to me. Isnt He wonderful?!

Hi Heather, my name is Karen Lossing and I am your grandfather's (Dick) 2nd cousin.

Its sounds odd because I'm young (only 44 yrs) but I talked to my Aunt Terry (Schiete) tonight & told her how I found you on Google! Isn't the web just amazing!!! (Terry is really my 2nd cousin, but we called her "Aunt" while growing up in Detroit.)

Anyways, Here's how it breaks down:

Lou, Lester & Dick Shiete are all brothers. Lester is MY grandfather (deceased) and Dick is YOUR grandfather.

Lester & Frances had Jean (my mother, deceased) who had ME.

Dick & Margaret had Allen (my 3rd cousin) who had YOU (my 4th cousin).

Does that make sense? Terry and I laughed about trying to figure out how the whole "gene pool" works.

Terry says "Hi" and to mention about how nice it was to see you at the Schiete Gathering in June at their place in Clarkston. They (Lou & Terry) are having lunch this Sat. 08/02/08 with Dick & Margaret. I can always remember the childhood stories my mom would share with me about Dick and Lou.

I would love to keep in touch with you (I love family as you do) and hope to hear from you. My e-mail address is seahorse_kll@yahoo.com

I live in Fenton, MI and work in healthcare.

Enjoy your weekend!
