FAT

I feel F-A-T today...does anyone ever have one of those days??? or is it just me...You look at yourself in the mirror and you thing Good Grief "How much do I weigh?!?!?" I don't know it's just been one of those days. I just feel yucky...oh well...just one of those things...I guess I could try and lose some weight. I've never really had to deal with the weight thing much, but as I'm nearing 30 I can see that I am going to start struggling with it. I've always just ate what I wanted to, but things are beginning to change!! Unfortuately!!

Well on to other things..Let's see I didn't have a lot to do today as far as running here there and everywhere. I did some laundry and straightend the house up some. Trying to get the house ready for the Odell five. I need to go grocery shopping soon too. I took the girls to the Library this afternoon because they have Artmania...Going to the Library for the different programs they offer during the Summer is pretty neat and it seems to keep them occupied too. Haley is in a reading program where she gets prizes for so many pages and books that she reads...It's pretty neat..and I like to encourage her reading whenever possible. She's a good reader and actually likes to do it.

Then tonight I took Haley to another VBS and I've been home fighting the fussy baby. She is either not feeling well or just tired. I think she is finally starting to fall asleep IF Haley doesn't wake her up!! I get her to sleep and then Haley or Donald comes in and WAKES HER UP!! THE NERVE OF THEM!! (but I love them anyways) haha...

Well I guess thats about it for today...bye

My weekend

It's monday morning again...I meant to post last night but got to playing on something else and forgot. So how was my weekend? Pretty good overall, I think. I really can't remember some of it.."What did I do with myself" haha... I think Friday I cleaned house mostly. Saturday we went to my cousins wedding..she made a beautiful Bride. It's hard to believe she's old enough to be one. I remember when she was born. she's about 9 years younger than me.

We also got to talk to some friends that we hadn't seen since the Assembly on Saturday also. It was nice seeing them. I'm hoping one family is going to come up this next Saturday for a cook out we're having because the Odell's will be with us also. That way we can spend some more time with them.

Saturday night I got pretty sick...some kind of virus, I think...I decided to go to Winchester instead of riding all the way to Raceland and having to spend the day there with the kids too. I didn't feel I was up to that. I miss the Raceland Church People when I don't get to see them though. We had a good service at Winchester yesterday though. and then me and the girls went to CiCi's for lunch. That was nice spending just "me" time with the girls out. I mean we're together all the time at home...but we don't always get the opportunity to just have "girls day out" It was very nice. Although I must say I missed my Husband ALOT yesterday. I've gotten so used to spending Sunday's with him that it will probably make for a very long week..because my days will be all messed up now...oh well.

And that was pretty much my weekend...I have a very busy day to day, so I think I better go and get it started...more later..

HOORAY!!

Well...Not a whole lot went on today...BUT my dad was able to get my dent mostly out!! HOORAY!!! I was so happy..I mean if you look real closely you can tell I've hit something but it doesn't look too bad...Thankfully!!

On to another note...my father-in-law is in the hospital tonight with a stroke. It doesn't appear to be a bad one but still a stroke non-the-less. He needs prayer.

Haley had her last T-ball game tonight for this season. I'm happy but sad too...I really enjoy going to them.. next year if she plays she will be playing on a team that keeps score. It will definately be more competitive next year. I think she really enjoys it.

Well thats about it for now...

HOORAY..my dent is out!!!!

What a day!

Hello everyone...well this has been a day...It started off with me getting up this morning and doing house chores like usual...then I went to Physical Therapy...I think I hurt worse now than I did before I went...something seems backwards there but anyways. I got home and did some more housework and then went to mom and dads for supper tonight. After that I told my mom I would help her clean their storage building out. Boy was that a chore...And Very, Very, Very HOT!! But we got that done and during this it had started raining. Donald had taken our girls up to my grandma's to stay while we helped out. So I told them I was going to go and get the girls. I got in the van and started to back up and BOOM!!! Yes, I wrecked the van...I was afraid to look, I had hit this trailer/wagon thing. So when I got up to my grandma's I looked and it didn't appear to have looked like I hit anything...I was so happy and relieved!! BUT when I got back to the house again.....I decided I'd better take another look..and guess what..I have a dented bumper!! I felt like crying..I've just had it a year/ with several more years to pay on it. I told my husband and he was cool about it..but I knew he wanted to say how in the world did you do that...but he didn't, he was nice. I just feel so bad about it because I have done the same thing to my other vehicles in the past...It always happens at HOME, BACKING UP!! I just don't understand why it happens...I honestly did not see the trailer/wagon thing. But oh well...I guess it could have been worse...I'm hoping it can be popped out..because it's plastic, I think... So anyway that was my day...

Let me think.....

Let me think....what did I do today...hmmm....well it started out this morning going to Haley's T-ball game. I let her stay with her grandma last night...big mistake...she was like a zombie out there on the field today!!! She stayed up WAY to LATE with her cousins, Amber and Chelsea!!!! But it went pretty good other wise...she then got her pictures made by herself and with the team. She only has one game left! It seems like it flew by...overall she's pretty good. After that Haley went with her Aunt Swimming and Donald, Me, and Taylor went down to Boonesborough Park. There is a small beach there that no one hardly ever goes too because the Water is contaminated, but we decided to walk down there in the sand with Taylor...and our Dog, Samson. Taylor loved it!! And Samson played in the water, YUCK....Sand and water don't mix to well on a furry dog..haha... Anyways we then went back up to the park part and walked around...It was very relaxing and enjoyable!! After that we came back and just relaxed around the house for a little while. Then I went out and bought Father's Day Cards for all the men in my life...my husband and my dad...just in case anyone is wondering about that...LOL!! So Donald or Dad if your reading this HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!!! You two are the greatest!!! And Happy Father's Day to any other Father out there too!!! Okay back to my day...when I got back from town I got ready and my dad took all of us out to eat at an Italian Resturant...VERY GOOD!!! (Thanks dad for the good grub) Then we came home and mom watched Taylor and Haley while me and Donald planted some plants in our Garden...(corn, pepper, watermelon) I enjoy working out there with Donald...I didn't think I would but it is relaxing actually!! Amber came up and watched us..and helped a little bit...mostly watched though..LOL!!! (she was afraid to get her hands dirty, I think) hee hee.... Then we played around with the girls and Donald is in the process of writing a song about them...He has the chorus wrote and it sounds really good so far...can't wait to hear the verses...He wrote me a birthday song once...I LOVE IT!!! The Odell's are coming to our house in a couple weeks to stay...All FIVE of them!! (Bro. Brian, Sis. Belinda, Tori, Trever, and Terah) We are so excited about it...It will definatly be a wild place around here for a few days...I believe they are staying with us from Thursday to Monday...Their so much fun to be around... Well thats my day...I'm going to bed..we have a LONG day tomorrow...bye!!!

Lazy Day

Well another day gone... It was a pretty boring day over all. I went swimming with the kids today and got some sun...yeah for me!! Then I came home with Taylor and layed her down for a nap and guess what??? I took a nap too!!! I never take naps during the day but today I did...it was refreshing actually..maybe I should do it more often..nnnaaaaahhh...Thats just not me..I like to keep myself busy during the day. It makes for a more satisfying day. I've been kinda in a bad mood the last couple of days and I dont' know why...I hate feeling like that...I'm determined to make myself in a good mood tomorrow..LOL!!! We'll see how it goes. HA!

I've been praying a lot for The Church. I was very pleased with the selection, Bro. Smith. I think he will be a good GO...and hopefully God will let us know exactly who he wants in that position (whether it be him or someone else) at the Assembly!!

Well I guess thats about it for tonight.
Bu-bye!!

KADEN

I'm in a picture mood today and I was going through my pictures and seen this cute picture of Mandy Slack's baby boy, Kaden...Aint he cute??? Even if he is Coby's boy..haha...If anyone knows me they know that Mandy is my bestest friend, so I thought I'd share this picture... They were in a couple of weeks ago, so I took several pictures of him.

My Girls

I don't think I've ever showed any pictures of my girls on here..so here are a couple of pictures of them...the first one is Haley trying to act like a model..she is so funny!! And the second one is Haley and Taylor together.

I don't know

Hello everybody!! It is Monday evening and not much really happened today. I had physical therapy this morning, came home and cleaned my house, cooked supper and in a few minutes I am going to take my girls to Vacation Bible School. Thats about it. I don't really have anything else to talk about. I've been praying a lot for the Presbytary meeting and wondering how it is going. Other than that I just don't know what to say..haha...Me not know what to say..thats funny!! Well I'll go for now..maybe something interesting will happen later..lol! Oh yeah..I did reserve my hotel for the assembly, but I'm still checking rates. I got mine at the Holiday Inn & Suites..rate $55.00. If anyone has any other suggenstions let me know...bye

It's been a L-O-N-G day

Hello everyone. Today has been a very long day!! Not bad just long. It started about 1:00 this morning. Taylor started crying nonstop. We couldn't figure out what in the world was wrong with the poor little thing. She cried hard for about an hour and then I realized hay, she is teething, I bet her gums are hurting her, pretty smart, huh?! lol...so I gave her some motrin and in a few minutes she went to sleep.

So then I finally fell asleep and had to get up at 7:00 this morning because I had a eye appointment to get new glasses. So I went and I actually got my new glasses today...sameday...how wierd is that...the last time i went to an eye doctor it took me two weeks to get my glasses...(Its's been awhile since I had been to an eye doctor lol) So I can see a lot better now!!! Yeah!!!!

THEN...

I came home got my mom and we went shopping!! I had a lot of fun with her and then she took me out to eat..thats always nice!

AND THEN...

Heres the big one...my mom said she would keep BOTH kids for me tonight..so that means I can sleep in in the morning..YIPPPPEEEE!!!

So It's not been a bad day, just a long day!!

Before I quit this post I just wanted anyone that reads this to say a prayer for me , I have a very special unspoken request that I'm needing the Lord to intervene in...Thanks a bunch...
Bye!

Hello

Today I had a doctors appointment this morning and then came home and cleaned my house...well some of it. Everything but the bedrooms and bathroom, but the front of the house is very clean. I figured I'd tackle the bedrooms tomorrow. yeah for me! My daughters bedroom looks like a tornado hit it. We will clean her room and it will look like a mess a few hours later. She doesn't even play in there that much. She's usually outside, so I don't know what happens to it. Who knows!?! Haley also had a teeball game tonight so we went to that. She did real good. Next year they will begin keeping score so it will get interesting next year. haha...I'm just a little competitive.haha. Well thats been my day for the most part, kinda boring I know. Well gotta go for now.

My Day

Hello Blogging World!! It's been a few days since I last posted. So lets see anythig new? No not really! Today is Monday and it was pretty relaxing day over all. My one year old, Taylor, wants to be outside every hour of the day that she is not sleeping. If she see's a door open she goes just as hard as she can to get out of it before it closes..and if she doesn't make it she pitches a fit, let me tell you. She has a temper!! But she is one of the cutest little things..I'll try to get a picture posted of her soon and Haley too. Haley spends most of her days in the swimming pool and running around all over the farm...She loves living here on the farm. People thinks my accent is bad...you all should hear hers..it has become worse since we moved back here too. I think it is cute though.

I went to Physical Therapy today...it was my first time ever and I didn't really know what to expect but it wasn't that bad. See I have migranes, and one of the reasons I found out was because I have whiplash. I didn't have any clue I had this, but after I was told that i had it I thought back to a VERY MINOR wreck I had when I live in Elizabethtown about 3 years ago. I honestly don't even remember moving at all during the wreck, but I suppose I got more of a jolt than I thought. So now they are doing some different exercises on my neck to see if it will help it. So far it's made it more sore..haha..they said that would happen though. Well thats about all for my day... More later.

A Testimony

I just want to praise God for all he's done for my family and I...It seems like one miracle after another has been happening for us for the past 6 months. Just when we're feeling all alone and forgotten God sends us a message in some way to let us know we are still loved and he hasn't forgotten about us...Anyway I said all that to say that we got our income tax check back...and let me say my husband always does our taxes and it was going to be okay this year but we expected more because of the second child..so we were happy to get what we did but a little dissappointed that it wasn't more because we have been very much in need of some extra finances due to some things that have happened in our life over the last few months. Well to make a long story short, my husband messed up on the income taxes...YEAH...(ha, thats a first taht I'm actually happy that he messed up..hehe) Anyway when we got our check the other day it was MORE THAN DOUBLED!! I started shouted right there in the van!! I just couldn't believe my eyes!! And I know that it had to be the Lord...That has happened to us so many times over the past few months..just when I feel like we're going under, God sends something from somewhere or comfort from someone...I just wanted to Praise him for his goodness and mercy!! I'm so glad I am a Child of the King!!!
