I fell off...

I fell off the blog bandwagon. Oops! Guess I got busy. I made sure to check everyone else blogs. Chris, Mrs. G, Calah. No comments tho. then mine? Well, I just keep by passing it.

I love to write, vent, post, talk about, tell, read, REMEMBER. But I seem to just get busy and say "I will do it another time" Then I post about it (I.E. Now) And think I will do better, then fall off again. I guess I get tired of my own bantering, and rather just go and read about someone else life. I mean, I have a great life, dont get me wrong. But I guess when things get tough I stop and dont write anymore, then they get good again, and I come back to blog land. Lets see if it last.

Things have been pretty amazing though! I met someone...thats a story to tell....work is still going strong, maybe stronger? I feel like sometimes I am no help here. Like I could do better, work harder....But how!? Everyone is in school (Minus Gabe) So, it is me, and my mini "baby cakes" As I call him, or Munchkin. I think I shall see about teaching him colors, and letters. ABC's!? Yeah, I can do that.

His name is Avel, he is pretty awesome! God pretty much has been AMAZING in showing me him!

I was sick last week with a stomach bug. It is still hanging on tight. Eating is a pain in the butt....no pun intended. I cant eat without the feeling of death over taking me, then every now and then I am sick again, on the verge of upchucking. I have heard through the grapevine that many people are going to the doctor because they cant shake it. It must be worse than a little 24 hour bug. But thus far no one else has come down with it. So maybe its something else? My stomach just cant handle my diet anymore? I dont know, I give up. Keep drinking the coffee, and sucking on the chocolate, my body will bounce back. Right? I am going to just keep saying it will.

I am attempting at growing my hair back out. It is almost past my shoulders. Long and stringy. I am hoping I can get it long again and then chop some layers into it with bangs and let it go!! Last time I had long hair I wore it parted straight down the middle, long and messed up. Mostly pulled into a tight pony tail where no one could see it. I never knew how to do my own hair, so why look like a hot mess? Pull it back girl!! Lets hope I can get it long and nice again, and actually know what I am doing.

Ok, well, I am back, for now? Hopefully? We shall see, right?

EMOTIONS....

EVERYONE MUST WATCH THIS

Standing always at my side!

A hymn that has always been one of my favorites that randomly popped up into my head so I thought I would share with everyone.

Yahweh, I know you are near,

standing always at my side.

You guard me from the foe,
and you lead me in ways everlasting.

Lord, you have searched my heart,
and you know when I sit and when I stand.
Your hand is upon me protecting me from death,
keeping me from harm.

Where can I run from Your love?
If I climb to the heavens You are there;
If I fly to the sunrise or sail beyond the sea,
still I'd find You there.

You know my heart and its ways,
you who formed me before I was born
in the secret of darkness before I saw the
in my mother's womb.

Marvelous to me are Your works;
how profound are Your thoughts, my Lord.
Even if I could count them, they number as the stars,
You would still be there.

A lyric or two.....

Hands touch, eyes meet

Sudden silence, sudden heat
Hearts leap in a giddy whirl
He could be that boy
But I'm not that girl:

Don't dream too far
Don't lose sight of who you are
Don't remember that rush of joy
He could be that boy
I'm not that girl

Ev'ry so often we long to steal
To the land of what-might-have-been
But that doesn't soften the ache we feel
When reality sets back in

Blithe smile, lithe limb
She who's winsome, she wins him
Gold hair with a gentle curl
That's the girl he chose
And Heaven knows
I'm not that girl:

Don't wish, don't start
Wishing only wounds the heart
I wasn't born for the rose and the pearl
There's a girl I know
He loves her so
I'm not that girl

Confusion on the home front.....

Yeah, it tells it all, confusion! So much has happened in the past few weeks I dont what to think. The novena was amazing, praying is such a, well, again, AMAZING! So I will keep on praying and maybe even start another novena!

Its been a whirlwind of things happening. Kate has returned and her wedding is in two weeks. Showers, have been planned and accomplished, Bachelorette parties are being finalized and is next weekend, musicians hired and music picked, now its just the little details here and there to make this wedding the best one yet! I feel like all I have done is sit here at this computer and look up ideas and plans for the B party. Limo? no limo? Hotel downtown? No hotel? dinner? I'll cook? Maybe we should eat out? How about SATCO? How many are coming? none at all? (8 all together) Back and forth and back and forth! Wooohoooo. Its stressful! But in the end it will be a lovely time!

Work has changed up as well. Im not on a new time schedule. So far so good, minus today when I BLEW IT! Alarm clock!? Who needs one!? Me. The phone is great, but when you are tired and unwilling to wake up when its beeping in your ear, then you know its time you got a time bomb alarm clock to put in your room so you WILL wake up. I am to be at work at 7am Monday through Friday. So far it really has been great, and I love it! Just today was my fist failure at arriving on time. At least the first week was a breeze!

So yeah, Im being very vague as to whats going on, but when I figure it out myself I will share with everyone.

PRAY FOR US!

Last night I started it, and I am going to finish it! 10 day Novena to Mary and St. Joseph. I am hitting them both up. Mary has always been close to my heart. And St. Joseph, well he is just the man!



Now, the only thing I need to do, is be FAITHFUL to it, and finish it. This is a challenge, because I tend to forget and make up excuses. No more with that!
And Mary, she just puts me at piece.

So many things have been happening lately in my life, and last weekend it was a dump truck full of amazing and confusing things going on, and I realized I needed to start praying and asking for guidance, because I dont want to make a mistake or lose the things that are going on. So, a Novena, in hopes that I will understand what all this means and that more signs and good things will keep happening.

Prayer is amazing, and God is Amazing!

One of my very own...

Well, I never thought it would happen. it was talked about months ago, and then was mentioned the other day. Then I came into work yesterday and there it was, the gift! The gift of all gifts. I pulled my car down the drive way and it was installed. No, not a new radio, or some cool GPS, or speed detector, it was a car seat, one of my very own, for the Munchkin. It even matches my interior! Woohoo. Who knew I would be so excited ;-)

I have to laugh about this, because its funny, to me at least. And only I know why it is so funny.

So its on to big adventures with the boys, because I have a car seat, and we can arrive in style!
