I've been stabbed

After the long weekend, of family and friends, I was cleaning up the house. Doing dishes was a never ending chore... I took out the silverware holder from the dishwasher to put the clean ones away when I put it to close to the edge, I went to stop it and I SLAMMED my hand onto a SHARP knife... well needless to say the silverware hit the floor as blood gushed from the wound. I cried out in agony. Thankfully the bone stopped the knife, but it didnt hurt anyless, in fact I would have to say it was worse. Stabbing the bone is NOT something I want to ever repeat! Almost a week later it is feeling better, the bruise is disappearing. It doesnt feel like my hand is broken any more.

exceitment builds

I am happy to have my family all together for the boys baptism. I wouldnt want it any other way. I will have 17 ppl in my home this weekend and on Sabbath at least 30 to help celebrate bdays! :o) I love entertaining at my house. It so much fun! I am extatic about the boys decision to follow the Lord.

Sunny days

Oh the weather outside is beautiful! I think Spring really has arrived. Today will be 65 and tomorrow 70 degrees. When I get home I am working out in the yard. My peas and my lettuce has started popping up so I guess its time to throw them into the garden. I seeded them in a mini container, that I can directly plant in the ground. I love fresh food from the garden. I was waiting til it stopped snowing and frosting in the mornings, and it looks like it has, so YEAH, im planting my first ever garden. Cant wait to eat the yummy foods. I will also be planting my raspberry plant and planting other items in the garden like pumkins, watermelons, and a wide varity of other yummys from the garden.

Books

I am currently reading the Percy Jackson series! I really have enjoy them. I am almost finished with the set. I cant believe how many books I have read this year alone! I just wished that E.G. White was just as interesting. I have to read a few of her books to get my Master Guide and I am having such a hard time doing it. Blah!

fun

Oh I cant wait for this weekend! We are going rock climbing! I am super duper excited!!!! I went rock climbing last summer and boy was I sore, I used muscles I didnt even know I had (lol). But this time I am 19 lbs lighter so maybe it wont be as hard for me! :o)

Is it me?

I tend to make ppl not like me. What am I doing that makes them turn and run? I dont tell them off, I dont yell at them, I am not mean and nasty... what is it? Do I have any real friends? Do I have anyone who really loves me for me? Where are they? Show me you love me! Tell me you love me! I need approval, I need kindness, I need... love!

Day Thirty-Seven

I am thrilled! Today I weighed myself and I lost even more weight. It is coming off so nicely. It makes me happy to think one day I will have a nice thin body again. I HATE being fat... I HATE HATE HATE it. The problem is that I like sweets a little to much. But right now I feel proud of myself for now weighing 181! That brings my total to 19 lbs, since summer. I have lost 9 lbs in the last 37 days. I hope I can keep it up. I want to go shopping before summer and but all new "HOT" look clothes. :o)

Easter Drama

This was the second Easter Drama that I was in. I really enjoy drama and really loved being in the Easter drama for our church. My heart is sad, This will be the last drama (ever...until heaven) that we will get to be in with our beloved Pastor Dauncey. He told us the news he was leaving and now we are unsure about next year. What will become of our wonderful church drama team and the outreach we do with it? Will someone, ANYONE, take his place so we can continue? I hope so, but even so, it wont be the same! It wont ever be the same again. :o(

My weight

I started loosing weight at the beginning of March today April 5th I weighed myself and I have lost a total of 7 lbs. I currently weight 183#! I am so excited! This month I was going to run, I still might, but the weather hasn't cooperated and I don't want to run in the rain. I hope to continue to loose weight. My over all weight loss is now at 17 lbs. In August I weighed 200# and I hope to never EVER weigh that again! Now that I have lost it, I hope to never find it! :o)

OMG

So yesterday my son Byron found a tick in his head, daddy had to remove it. When I got home I asked Byron if he cleaned it really well... he said YES, cause if you didnt you could get lemon-giteous....
"what?" I asked
" Lemon-giteous " He replied.
I started to laugh.... Lemon-giteous? I think you mean LIMES disease.. I said
"oh ya"!

LOL I was still laughing about this at 11:00PM last night!
