Hello, I am going to learn how to use this thing the correct way. I am going to take pictures tonight of some of my LO's and post them. The girl made Varsity soccor this is her Junior year of high school and the boy is playing first stream football. The husband is no more (long story) and I am fine with that. I am still working full time and parenting double time due to the split.

Wish me luck on uploading the LO's

Hello, I haven't been on in a while just dropping by to vent. Why didn't someone tell me that PARENTING was so hard, it's actually not what I signed up for or is it just the fact that I have a teenage daughter and it's literally like pulling teeth to make her understand the importance of school! My second issue I am working long hours and it makes it very diffcult to do anything with them I am currently working M-F 8-9 with the weekends off. But in the scrapbooking world I have signed up for a CJ group and a recipe swap and some more ATC cards. Thanks for listening to me.

ANOTHER DAY

2008-01-08T07:03:00.000-08:00

I can't wait I have enlisted the help of a couple of family memebers and friends to help put together folders with anything and everything in it, in regards to boys, sex, domestic violence, grades, god, and self esteem. Wish me luck!!

Well my life at the present moment could not be any better. I will start my second job tonight and then I made a commitment to leave all the negative people out of my life far as family and friends go, I will go back to scrapbooking on a regular basis and church will be my new outlet. I have tried to do so many things without GOD and now I must learn to trust and depend on no one but him so the weekend of the 18th we have a girl empowerment weekend planned for the young girl in our lifes and we have chose to talk about god and sex and peer pressure. Wish us luck!!

Hello all that stop by and read this from time to time, I come with a heavy heart and so much going on that my only strength is thru GOD I had a cousin die in her sleep at 26 years of age from LUPUS she leaves behind a four year old little boy then on Tuesday my 19 year old cousin basically my neice had a miscarriage she was six months. She delivered the baby last night at 11:01 and she is a reck. I had never asked her to be strong but my words to her were with GOD by your side you can handle anything, GOD will never give you more than you can handle. She just cried and cried so in one week my whole family as been turned upside down and around but if my mom never taught me anything she taught me the power of prayer. So how do you tell a four year old his mom will never be back?? I tried to explain death to my eight year old and he basically was like whatever mom. If you have stayed this long thanks for letting me vent ..

Love

2007-12-10T13:29:00.000-08:00

Well today is Monday and the start of our bad weather here at home, the kids had no school but I still had to work how about that. I love the snow but hate the cold weather that comes with it is this fair to say. A question on one of the web sites that I visit was what are your plans for New Years, well I plan to go to church then to a girl friends house for a party nothing fancy.

"Now love is what is LOVE and who defines it: the meaning is strong affection for another arising out of kinship or personal ties (2): attraction based on sexual desire : affection and tenderness felt by lovers (3): affection based on admiration, benevolence, or common interests b: an assurance of love "
So I will say to all of the young ladies out there when a BOY tells you he loves you just to get into your pants think about it is what he saying real talk or is it just something to say so that you trust him. I am only given real talk.

2007-12-06T12:39:00.000-08:00

You learn a lot in life, the longer you live the more you come to know and unfortuantely some people never seem to get it but even at my age I have learned alot and been thru a lot. I could teach any young girl the rope just because of all that I have been thru even at my age. So to all the young girl don't let a dude tell you he LOVES you just so that he can get in your pants. Because if he truly loves you he will wait. Love is not defined by SEX. To me don't do it until your grown enough to take what comes with given up your body. Ain't no ramdon dude worth it sorry I am just keeping it real even as a parent to a 14 year old. When you engage in sex according to the bible you marry each and every person that you sleep with so keep that in mind. Sex is really a grown person game because if you can't take what comes with it don't play in that area. PEACE

What is the essential core of friendship for you?

This question was posed on Two peas and I must say the people that are my friends right now that are a part of my life will continue to be apart no matter what they think.(smile) So the core of the friendship is just being there and listening when I need them to, they will understand when I don't want to talk and be available when I am ready to. So I guess to sum up the answer it would be understanding!

Hello, I haven't been on in a while but life is taking me by storm right now and I am having so much drama in my life at the present moment that I don't know if I am coming or going. But let me start by saying this GOD is GOOD all the time and he never gives us more than we can handle. I haven't scrapped in a while and I have so much I need to do that it's scary but with school back in there is no light at the end of that tunnel my DD has soccor and my DS has soccor and bowling right now and my DD is getting ready for homecoming and I am so not ready for that at all. I don't think I am ready for her to date boys at all.

The question from Two Peas is: Share the most recent book you have read and think others would enjoy? The Ex-Factor it's a little raunchy

Hello, I haven't blogged in a while but my life has been onething after another and guess what I just have to learn to stay prayful and give it to god and let him handle the rest. I have decided to go back into scrapbooking full time not part time and not sometimes every free moment I will try to make the time. Two peas posed a question and I am going to try to answer has truthful as I can

If you found a $100 bill on the sidewalk, what would you do? a/put it in my wallet, hello new shoes! b/Pass it by, gross, germs! c/Give the money to charity. d/Add it to my savings.

There would of been a day that I would of just took it and acted like I never found it but not today I would actually try to post a ad or talk to the local police before I made a decision and then if I could keep it even with all of the debt that I am in I would Tithe with it so it would go to the church.

Well I can say that I am glad that the week is over I was so dead beat tired and hate to say it but tired of company as well. I know my Dh loves company but I don't I would like to play host all of time I wish that someone would invite me over just once, and day please bring a side to share. But it never works that way we always have to cook clean and play host. But enough about that over all it was good to see some family and friends from out of town. I am going to learn to post pictures on here so I am going to spend most of my day scrapping and playing on the computer

Well today on two peas it say blog about a passage and what it means to "you"

Mine is "NEVER LOOK DOWN UPON A MAN UNLESS YOUR LOOKING DOWN TO LIFT HIM UP" I don't know who said it first but I first heard it at church. and to me it means no talking about a person unless your willing to help that person no matter what the problems might be. Well it's the weekend before the holiday and I have so much to do and no time to do it all but GOD will make away.

Today is Friday and I am so excited but tired at the same time I promised my self that I was going to blog every other day and guess what I haven't been able to do it so here goes let's start with Sunday I had about six ladies at the house and we had a crop and a lady from stampin up came over and we had a blast. Monday was ok day I watched Charlotte's Web with the kids and we ate whatever we felt like, like Icecream and cookies and then Tuesday was a laundry day and T-Ball practice and Wed/Thursday was Soccor practice and I made a carrot cake it was nasty I like carrot cake but mine turned out pretty gross but so did my roast and I usually don't mess up a roast it was dry. But other than that I had a good week. I am going to finish my book all about me by Lisa B. that she gave to a group of ladies at a church event. Well I have went on and on enough I will be back hopefully Sunday.

2007-04-26T13:33:00.000-07:00

I have to say this over and over to myself so that I don't let the devil win the battle that I am in I have a problem and I know it. I just need for god to send me the answers to get out of the problem. So to all that reads this keep me in your payers. I am new at blogging and so far I think of this as a journal more than anything. I think of the problems that I am facing and trying to learn how to deal with them then I sign on to twopeas and there is this lady that I have never meet that son may pass, I think of it like this god has the power to heal, and I feel so bad because their is really nothing anybody can do to help her but we as people can be there for her when ever she is ready to talk, or just wants somebody to vent to. I can not sit here and say I would know what to do if my child left this world before me I would be a wreck. I am already a wreck so could you imagine what my life would be like if something tragic happen? I just know that when I was a young girl I was taught to pray and as a adult I have learned that you have to pray and give it to Jesus and not try to fix it yourself if you fix it yourself then it not really fixed because GOD had no part in it. I have rambled on enough I just need to get that off of my chest because I am going Thur so much and I need a answer.

And DH has asked me to make a book for a lady that is pregant at his job, I am totally not sure. My brain is fryed I am going to try to make up some page kits because the next crop is at my house in May. So what else my kids thinks that I am the bank and the taxi.
