Hello everybody, he.. he... hello everybody.......
Hey folks, hope life is treating all of you good. I have just not had time to get on here and blog lately. One of my favorite things to do is lurk around and read y'alls posts, I haven't had time for that. I am gonna try to just have a day here soon when that is all I accomplish. Meantime, how's everyone feeling about all the negative campaigning going on? Truth be told, I'm sick of it all. BUT, I am glad that I live in a country where, for today, at least, I am still free to say that. God bless America!! And bless our troops who serve and protect to guarantee that right.

Okay folks, I am in serious need of your prayers.
Long story, short....I applied for a job today. There are lots of financial issues going on right now and I could really use the job (that comes with benefits). I know that there are lots of folks out there with the same issues. But, if you remember, please throw my name in your prayers. I sure appreciate it. Hope everyone has a great week.

Ten Years ago..........

I was having a great deal of trouble getting to sleep. For tomorrow, January 7th, I was blessed with a beautiful, little pink bundle. My daughter was born in 2002. It is so hard for me to believe that she is now "double digits, baby", as she puts it. What a beautiful person she is. I am so proud of the young lady she is becoming and how caring she is.
I must be out of my mind. I allowed her to have a sleepover tonight for her birthday. There are 12, count em, twelve, little girls under the age of 11 at my house. They have eaten pizza, cake, ice cream and drank lots of soda. I never knew that girls could make so much noise. Who am I kidding? I'll just be glad when they go to sleep.
Happy birthday Abby. We love you very much.

HAPPY NEW YEAR bloggy buddies. I hope that all of you had a safe and wonderful New Years celebration.

Have I ever mentioned how much I love to read? I really, really, really love to read. Unfortunately, I usually only have time for that right before I drop off to sleep at night. For Christmas, I got two books that I have been wanting to read for a long time. I just finished The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Wow!! That was a long book. It was both good and it also repulsed me in some places, too. Anyone else read this book already? I definitely wanted to read it before I go to see the movie.

hope everyone had a Merry Christmas.

Sixteen years ago, I was blessed with a son. It is so hard for me to believe that time has passed this quickly. In my mind, I still see that little boy I used to carry around in the laundry basket. I appreciate the blessing that he is. Happy birthday son. His birthday gift is going to get his drivers license. It makes me proud and sad at the same time.
