11

It has been 11 days since Spring arrived... but I am still seeing it snow outside.... I was told today that from now on, each winter will be worst than the last... I sure hope that isnt true. I ache for the sunshine, I yearn for the warmth light to heat my cold body. I want to play in the grass in my bear feet, I want to swim in the shimmering lake calling to me, COME! I want to be out in the fresh air, soaking up the fresh breeze on my face. Laughing, playing, and having a grand time in the out doors, WHEN WILL COME? I am afraid not soon enough.

Summer Vacation

It has been decided that I will not start school until September 2009. I will work the shop until the kids are out of school then have the whole summer with the kids... I am excited to have the summer off!

Phone

Oh my goodness... My MINT CHOCOLATE DIED... again....So Brett and I went to the Verizon store and they had a special on Black berrys buy one get one free.... We were told that we both had upgrades available and money available to buy the phones, we took them up on it.. so today both Brett and I own new black berrys ...we are happy... NICE! Nice to have a reliable phone today! :o)

Trusting

Today I am uplifted by a dear friend and family member... Her words ring true as I read them. I know she is right, I need to trust GOD and cling to him with all my might... I have been trying to do this... I trust that God knows what he is doing and what is best for me. I want to feel all my worries disappear... I want to feel secure. I need GOD more than ever... WE need to have him on our side or should I say we need to be on his side in this time of terror that we are all experiencing. The horrible one, the vicious one, the one who makes all of our lives miserable MUST be defeated. We must stand AGAINST him, STAND UP for what is right, HOLD on tight to others who believe and not let them falter... for those who have we need to go to them, take them by the hand and urge them to come back, pray for them, pray for those who have abandoned you, pray for those who have disgusted you, pray for those who have hurt you. In this time we need to stick together, mend broken families, mend the hearts, minds and soles so we all can live in peace together in Heaven. Remember he said IF YOU HAVE DONE IT TO THE LEAST OF THESE, YOU HAVE DONE IT UNTO ME! We need to forgive, trust GOD, and love only him!

Not selling

Well as it turns out, we cant afford to sell the house after all. If we were to sell right now with the way the economy is we would end up still owing money on the house and not having a house, so now we are looking for the next best option... selling everything else... But at least for now I get to keep the house.

Sping

Oh man... it is the 5th day of spring and it has continuously snowed everyday! What is going on? Its cold, snowy, and miserable!

MADNESS

I was told yesterday that "I am leaving the church"... LOL! WHAT? OMG the person who started this rumor is a hypocrite~ They believe that they are better than anyone else and that they are above it all.... HOG WASH!!! If you are reading this blog and you are the one who started this..... I AM MADDER than hell at you!!!! BE WARE!

Signing

Today was the day for signing up the house, thankfully (for me) the Realtor was sick today and is unable to sign it up! We are trying to decide what to do, Sell off all of the "toys" we own and NEVER use, to try to go to another bank for another try at getting the house refinanced! Trusting in GOD is what I am lacking in... I am trying really hard to understand his devine hand in this.... Maybe that is what his plan is... to get us to rely on him purely!

Harry Potter

I am currently listening to Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince CD... Its much easier to listen to the story while at work since I dont have time to read 3" books! I am 1/2 way done and cant wait to see movie coming out this summer! I am also in need to re-watch the last movie to remind myself what happened last time! I dont think that I will be taking the 2 younger children to see the new movie however... THE last one was scary for Darrin ! I did how ever leave the the littlest one with his daddy when we went to see it!

OUTRAGED

OUTRAGED is only the beginning, Sadness, sickened, pissed and many other feelings are starting to emerge... The economy is so bad here that I am forced to sell our new home. I DONT want to leave my custom home that my husband just built for me...Why is this happening to me? God placed us here in our new home and now its being taken away along with out lively hood! THIS SUCKS!

Braces and Retainers

It is offical... Darrin had his braces removed last week and is now in a retainer... I hope he takes better care of it than Byron did. :o) The orthodonist said that Byron needs to come back in around a year from now for a FULL set of braces. Then when Byron will finally be done will be Darrin and Aarons turns to be in them too! I should of been an orthodontist. LOL!!!!

Spring?

Only 3 more days til spring and yet it was still snowing at my house this morning... Not a lot, but still it was SNOWING!!! What in the world.... I see people out buying trees, plants and other yard items... I am so jealous.. I dont even see my yard... there is still like 2+ feet of snow. I so desperately want to garden and fix up my yard.... When will SPRING really be here???

35 days

YUP thats right... 35 more days and I am off to start a new career. It will be sad to see the business finally closed and yet at the same time a relief. 30 days until the doors are closed... Its been weird... we told my parents that we are closing the doors, but my dad wont have it. He is trying someway for it NOT to happen. Oh well, I gotta do what I gotta do!

Lump

I found out last night that my mom found a lump in her breast. She went to the DR and they are sending her to get a mammogram and then to see the surgeon at the end of this month. Our family has a HIGH risk of cancer and I am worried that is what she has. She has already had cancer (or the start of it) in her uterus. Now this, I hope and pray that she is ok.

Borrowed Tomb

I and my family are in a play this EASTER weekend... April 10th & 11th. The times are as follows
April 10th @ 7PM
April 11th 10:45AM and 7PM

I am so excited... I want all my friends to come! :o)

Baby Mama

Not too long ago I yearned to have another tiny baby to call my own... Now I am happy that I dont! Dont get me wrong, I love babies, but they are a lot of work and I forgot that part. I have been watching a baby for 2 weekends in a row for all day and over night too. I am TIRED!!! I like getting 10 (well if im lucky 8) hours of sleep. I need sleep to function... I miss the baby when he goes home, But glad to see him go too! :o)

Its Offical

Today we decided that we are done... We are closing the shop... I have had a good run of 7 years but just cant make it work with the way the economy is right now. I have about 6 weeks to sell all my material in the shop and to close the doors before I go to school on April 21st. When one door closes another opens and for me right now, its school. I will be in school for 3 months and then have a whole new career. I will be a nail tec. I will be making more money doing that part time then I do now working full time. Pray that it all goes well.

Mafia Wars

I found this new game on facebook, Mafia Wars... I am so addicted to it. I play it every chance that I get. I sit at work all day playing this game (in between my customers) I go home and play this game, I think about it and cant wait till the next time I play..... Ohhh I am so addicted, BUT ITS FUN!!!! (and Im so bored at work)!

Detox

This is the month that I am going to loose more weight... I have successfully kept the 20 pounds off that I lost awhile back, so now its time for more. Summer is coming, I bought a new bikini and I want to look H-O-T in it... starting today I am off POP (I have a head ache already!), candy (what am I going to eat for snack?) meat (I am going to DIE!!!) and I'm going to start drinking water (well thats not so bad), exercising ( I can do that) and eating better.... I want to look good when I die, so I guess I had better start while I am still alive! :o)

Program

This April 10 & 11 my family is in a play... an Easter play to be exact. I have never really ever acted or been in a play since grade school and I only did 2 plays even then. I am loving it. I have a solo that I have to sing, I get to act and my lines are short so there isnt a lot that I have to memorize. Its great! I would like to see all my family and friends there.... Hope they arent busy that day! :o)

Tired

Oh my word.... I am so tired today. I started down loading itunes last night at 4PM and it was finally finished at 1AM this morning.... I am glad thats over!
