Please know that I am praying for all of your intentions each day during our noon Angelus. (well, I suppose it will be our Regina Coeli today!)
We have some various situations going on in our home at the moment and I would appreciate a prayer here or there if you think of it.
Our furnace broke down yesterday morning, the blower motor burned out. We have been without heat since then, and it's about 22 degrees out at the moment. We have 4 portable electric heaters going at various places throught the house and we all slept in the livingroom last night. The repair man did come out yesterday, but realized that our furnace does not take a standard motor and he will have to order one today if he can't find one in stock. We could have it back today, but most likely we won't have it back until tomorrow.
Our van is also broke down. Thanks be to God we got a second car a few months ago so we do not have work issues. But we know the repair will not be cheap.
Our contract with our realtor expired last week and we currently do not have the house listed. We were really hoping to do a few more things around here and re-list it next month, but with all of the other things cropping up, we may not have the money. Looks like we may be putting another year in here at this house. I pray that we don't have any more neighbor issues. The children and I will be spending alot of time out and about once the schools let out.
My husband, while he is putting on a brave face the way he always does so well, is worried about the financial impact of all of this, and is very disappointed about not being able to move his family out of the current situation right now. I am working really hard at making the best of it and trying to take some pressure off of him.
Sorry for my novel. Thank you for any prayers.

Praying here, too. House issues can really change plans in a hurry. (Our dishwasher died for the 3rd time in 7 months on Thursday...)

I'm so sorry! I will pray.
I know how you fell about the heater breaking.  Ours was broken for a week or two back in the coldest part of feb. We went everywhere I could think of -- library, church, visiting friends -- just to get out of the cold house.  Then, our toilet broke and we had to get our septic tank sucked out and rent a rota-rooter.  Then, our washing machine broke -- we've been without that for 6 wks -- cuz we've no money to get a new one now. But laundromats are expensive too! And money was in short supply here even before all this happened.
Sometimes I wonder what God is thinking! One thing after another and no money to fix it all at once. He'll take care of you though, like He somehow is for us too. I will pray for you and your family. Trust Him and don't worry . . . (now if only I can take my own advice . . . )

Praying Lisa!
I haven't posted much but continue to read the prayer requests and pray for intentions here. I'm trying to regulate my computer time better (once per week) so that I better attend to my daily duty - but please Lisa, and all the others who have posted prayer requests - you have been especially in my prayers during lent and now will continue to be so during the Easter season.
Janet

Lisa,
praying for you here! I can relate to how you are feeling, a little. Since Christmas, our appliances have been breaking down. First the washer and dryer (at the same time- not great, but it saved us two repair visits,) then the refrigerator, and then the range (our stove actually caught fire- that made for an exciting afternoon ) All could be repaired except the range, and we got a new one two weeks ago. Things seem to really mount up. I don't know how OH's economy is compared to MI's, but I know sooo many people who are having difficulties, financially.
Sorry for rambling, but I didn't want you to feel alone. 
God Bless,
Stacy in chilly MI

Praying for you every day, Lisa. Hope you get some relief or hope in some of those areas soon---I know how much it helps to just get a ray of sunshine. Keep persevering--you're a fighter!

Praying for heat for you! That must be so tough when it's so cold out. And for the van and everything else...
