There could be a bit of tension building up between project management (where I actually work) and my line manager. Pray the latter eases off on the micro-management, as our project doesn't need obstacles.
Please pray also for S and her parents who are in a difficult place at the moment.

Still trying to get a subcomponent of my work project done. It turns out that this isn't even a solved problem and I might have to be the first person in the world to figure it out. It's a project in itself. I don't know how I'll get everything done.
Generally, I'm tired of living in fear about my work. I don't understand why it has to be this difficult, all the time. I guess the answer is that that's one of the things I still have to improve about myself.
Sooner or later the Telemum will die and I will be a single person with no family, no partner, and no geographically close friends. I spend every waking moment trying to prepare for that. It's exhausting. I can never do enough.
I should be dragging myself out on online dates or whatever, but I don't have the time or money and I don't have the discipline to force myself through such an unrewarding process.

Special prayers for Malik and Telepath-- who, through their own troubles are such faithful prayer warriors for us.
(Update on Neph-- fortunately he was surrounded by caring folk almost immediately after he began posting weird stuff on FB. He seems to have rode it out. Thanks for the prayers-- this tragedy has been eating away at this family for way too long.)

For Starbug's in-tray.
For Kelly Alves' J and C, for peace of mind. May E. rest in peace.
For Nanny Ogg's neighbour D and the family.
For malik3000, melanoma be gone! pesky prostate cancer be gone! spots on liver, don't be anywhere, and certainly don't be up to no good.
For Stercus Tauri.
For daisymay and the Indian Jesus get-together.
For Cottontail's J, for peace and a safe journey home.
For peace at Sioni's workplace. For S and her parents.
For success of my project at work (and maybe a paper about this thing that is causing me so much wangst right now, hmmm?) And continued employment with each post being better than the last, oh yeah. Seriously I would love to think that the I'll continue to be blessed as I have been so far.
For my side-project to be funded.
This might sound petty but it has a really big effect on my life. I have followed a good habit 72 days in a row now, and when I reach 75 days I will add another hait. This next one is complex though! I just really need to get a grip on certain things.
Oh and. I have a really nasty cold which has dragged on for a week and which is getting me down. I hope it's not complicating into a sinus infection or something. Anyway. Respiratory infection be gone. kthx.
For the Telemum.

Please pray for my daughter C and her husband (also C). I don't know what is going on but we suspect that son-in-law C may be suffering from a mental illness (bipolar? depression??) but is refusing help. Things are very difficult for my daughter at the moment.

For my parents and my mother in particular - they are so furious with my calling to ordination trainiing for so long now that I fear things may never be repaired between us and I am very sad.
lord have mercy.

For everyone here who is asking our prayers. For the dead, injured, and grieving in Dhaka. For reconciliation in Harmony Hope's family. For Telepath's loneliness and her miserable respiratory infection -- and for mine -- and for better health for anyone else who has one of these fershlugginer things. For Malik, and for Sioni Sals' S, and his workplace; for everyone my thick head is failing to remember, may God remember them, may God comfort all of us.

Please pray for M, as he and his siblings try to put together their mum's funeral ready for Friday - they don't all live in the same part of the UK, so lots of driving is involved. They didn't want a Christian funeral as mum wasn't 'religious', but it has to be held in a church because the crematorium's chapel is closed; they are struggling with this as well.
