Okay well it's the day after my 34th birthday. My BFF Linny called me this morning and asked me how do I feel being a whole year and a day older, and I must say I don't feel any different then I did before. I mean I am grateful to God for another opportunity to do better and better and better. I am just a bit dissappointed at where my life is right now. I feel I should be in a different place. My guy Teej said something so profound in one of his blogs. He said "My 20's were for learning s**t. My 30 are for applying the s**t I learned" Minus the curse words...I totally agree. Now I have gone to school and became a teacher, but then I decided I didn't want to do that by the time I had my own children...then I had my 3rd miscarriage and that was that. Since then I have had 2 long term jobs at which I learned several great skills. I just feel I should be doing more. I woke up this morning and began to cry. Not because I was ungrateful, but because I was sad. Sad a

If you ever wanted to know what kind of person I am in Christ Jesus...Listen to this song right here. Be Blessed:)

Why is it that no matter how old you become, ur parents (esplly ur mother) have a way of making you feel like a kid again? I mean it is so weird to me that I am approaching 34 in 3 days and my Mother still treats me like a child. Not to mention how she talks to me...AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I just want to scream at the top of my lungs sometimes. We live in the same house (well its my sisters house...don't ask) and I try my best to stay out of her way. I know that the person I am and the way I think sets her off, so I mind my own business. But then there are times when she will need me to do something for her or with her, and no matter how hard I try to make things smooth; I can't seem to do/say anything right. Take tonight for instance. I have been gone from my first apt which has gone condo since october of last year. And since that time I have moved not once...not twice...but three times. Now keep that in mind ur gonna need that info later. My oldest nephew was taking out the tr

I attend FCC Church in Munster IN and my Pastor has a way of getting the point across. These pics are from his sermon "Saddle up and ride!" it was awesome! Can you believe we had live horses in the sanctuary? Awesome.... Until we read again... Dee

 Okay, so I have been feeling a little "single" latley and normally that is a good thing as far as I am concerned. Normally I have no problem being "single" matter of fact I like it. I am in the process of learning how to be single in Christ Jesus, and I am loving it! However, here lately I have been feeling the effects of being "single" and I gotta tell you.... "it sucks!" I see so many relationships all around me that I wouldn't put together in a million years, but its not my choice now is it. When choosing a mate, why do some men perfer the slutty over the sexy? Or the "brawling woman" over the submisson proverbs 31 woman? It amazes how some of the guys that I found to interesting, found me to be boring and worst yet "to sweet" what! Can you believe that? I would think that the only thing I would ever be guilty of would be "loving too much" if that is at all possible. Then there is my friend
