* our first christmas 12.25.09*

well I survived the weekend without my sweetie. he came straight over once he got home from hunting.. he was still wearing all his camo.. said he was having with draws from not being with me. said he wished he could be with me all the time, he also said he was going to do something about it soon... I enjoyed spending time with my family up North tho but was glad when I seen my Honey last night! I don't ever want to be away from him again on another weekend. makes them go by real slow and I miss him 2 much. looking forward to Wednesday. I'll be off work for a few days cause of Christmas. get four whole days with my sweetie, no work or anything just spending time with family and staying up late. work is going by pretty slow. I guess everyone isn't too worried about getting their car worked on. can't blame them tho, It would be the last thing I'd think of this week. Roni, I hope and trust you are doing well. hope work isn't causing you to many problems. hope to talk to you again soon. take care!

<- me and Kenny sitting on our couch at our apartment.

<-me and Kenny at my nieces play/musical.

Been busy these last few days. helping Kenny move still and cleaning.. I'll be glad when he's all moved in. tonight we went to my niece's Christmas play /musical.. had a lot of fun. then we went out to eat at Culver's then went back to our apartment and moved in our couch and tables, and I put away our Christmas present from Rhonda and David. they got us some silverware, dish towels, hand towels, bowls, salt and pepper shakers, a laundry basket and a strainer. our little apartment is starting to feel like a home, even tho I don't live their yet. one day soon tho and I will! I was so sad when I left I wont get to see him again until Sunday.. he's going out of town to go hunting with his dad and some of his buddies. I really hope he has a good time.. even though I am going to miss him something terrible. I am however, going out of town myself. going to see my aunt up north and while I'm gone I'm going to finish as much Christmas shopping as I can. sorry I've not been updating as much as I have been. oh I guess you know by now but I'm finished with college this semester.. my final grades were two A's and one B. guess I can date and go to school at the same time. Kenny told me tonight he was proud of me for my grades. he's the best.. I'm going to miss him so much Friday and Saturday.. I hope Sunday goes by quick so I can see him... it's suppose to get real bad here weather wise.. I hope it snows a ton.. but only when I can be snowed in with Kenny... going to head to bed. *night*

well it's been another busy weekend... going in the morning to get my sweeties electric and water turned on... he'll be officially living here starting Wednesday night.. hopefully he'll remember to leave me some money tomorrow morning. guess I better remind him to leave me the check book before he leaves for work.
<- at the Christmas church dinner. we got some of our very first Christmas cards as a couple tonight. even some people wrote "The Browns" on the card.. guess they figure we'll end up married. haha it shouldn't be to much longer then we'll be married... anyway better head to bed he for got his alarm clock at him mom and dad's house so I gotta get him up for work and I dont want to over sleep.

<- here ya go roni, a pic of him without his hat!

hey Roni!! hope your doing well.. I was just gonna update real quick first to tell you I have new baby kittens will upload pics very soon. but my main reason of updating is to ask you to keep me and Kenny in your prayers. we found an apartment that we both like and want. it just came open a couple days ago and he finally got a hold of the people that owned it, well they have already had someone to look at it and they said they would call Kenny back tomorrow and let him know if they take it or not. the apartment is in a great location, out in the country, cheep on rent and is two doors down from Che. if it's the Lords will for him (us) to live their then I hope the people that looked at it doesn't take it. pray that they will tell them no so we can have it and I can help Kenny move this week!! he really wants it and I hate to see him get his heart broke. anyway better head to bed. good night.

<-Sunday Morning before church.. we sorta matched a little...

had another busy weekend. Friday night went to Kenny's cousin's restaurant to eat and listen to him play with his group. Saturday I went Christmas shopping while he worked all day, then we went to church, Sunday we went to church, went out to eat, went to a friends house for a few then we went to his grandma's house to eat supper.. me and his sister Casey threw him a surprise birthday party = D then we went to his house then back to mine.. I took a final while he played the guitar and sung a little bit. made a 86 on my test.. one class down two 2 go. I'm so ready for a much needed break. between having a boyfriend and school its crazy.. its hard to date and run around with them and have fun without school work being on the back of your mind the whole time. but I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. I'm beat and I'm heading to bed. gotta get up at seven when my sweetie gets up gotta pack his lunch and send him off to work.. his whole family is already planning our wedding lol = D I don't mind one bit.. lord willing he'll get a place real soon. I can't wait to be his wife!!

so I have been non stop all week long. Wednesday night mom took me to where Kenny works to drop me off so I could go home with him.. Thursday morning Kenny went hunting while I slept in.. he killed a deer.. I felt so sorry for the poor thing when they were skinning him. = ( then we went to his grannies house for thanksgiving dinner then to my house for thanksgiving dinner.. ate at both places and went back to his house for the night. we got up at 2 in the morning to go shopping with his sister.. here every Friday after thanksgiving is known as black Friday and you get really good deals on select items. afterwards we went fishing then we came back to my house. Saturday we went to the funeral home for a little bit and then went to walmart. Sunday we went to church.. that's really all I've done all week long. well I better get off here my sweetie is fixing something to eat so I'm gonna go help him before he starts yelling for me to come in the kitchen. after we eat were gonna watch a Christmas movie and relax.. back to work tomorrow which really stinks.

so my sweetie called me when he got to my house.. I wasn't home cause Ive been house sitting my pastors sons house for them while they are on vacation. feeding the animals and such. when he called he told me he had a surprise for me. my little sweetheart went to walmart and bought me Christmas decorations for our tree.. so we put the tree up together.. I tried to upload pics but blogger was being crazy.. try the link below and if it doesn't work I'll try to upload pics again for you.

I'm gonna head to bed.. my sweetie well be getting up early and I want to spend as much time with him before he goes off to work tomorrow.

<- me and my sweetheart = D

I asked Kenny what the name of the song was that he let me listen to Sunday.. which is our future song.. just thought I would post the words 2 it.. we held hands the whole time during the song and he'd look at me every now and then. he was sorta singing it to me too.. Kenny really knows how to make my heart melt. = D

I still do Steve Ivey

The first time I saw you I wanted you to be mine I still do I gave thanks to the good Lord for making our worlds collide I still do. From that day we stood together in front of friends and God above said I do was for ever even if the road got tough till this very moment as I hold your hand and look at you. I still do.

We’ve had our share of ups and downs, we’ve always came around to the middle we still do sometimes we get blessed with a lot but we always found happiness with just a little and we still do. Each day we end with a prayer our family gathered around keeps our dreams in the stars and our feet on the ground never dreamed we could have all this and still have each other too. We still do.

Every day I wake up and I’m thankful for my life. Cherish every minute that you are here by my side. In this world we built together is more then a dream come true. The best thing I’ve ever done is give my heart to you. I still do.

The first time I saw you I wanted you to be mine I still do.

anyway guess i'm gonna get off here and head to bed, gotta get up real early going out of town for my great aunts funeral. keep us in your prayers for traveling mercy and grace.

I've had a busy weekend. Kenny came over Saturday and hung out for a while after he finished hunting.. he just left a little while ago to head home. I offered to wash his clothes for him so he didn't have to drive home, but he said he didn't want to work my little fingers off. he's so sweet.. I wished he'd just ask me already!! = D he let me listen to another song that he said was our future song but for the life of me I cant remember what it was.. ugh I hate it when that happens. I'll have to ask him when he calls... sorry for the short update.. but he'll be getting home before too long I believe.. want to be ready when the phone rings.

well I just sent my Kenny to bed.. I already miss him.. he's coming over Wednesday when he gets off work.. I can not wait! we'll have so much fun. I'm gonna cook supper for us and make brownies for desert. then watch a movie.. I believe he's going to stay over 2 so he wont have to leave so early! so if he does then I'll get to see him Thursday morning before work. yay!! I love it when I get to send him off to work in person and not on the phone. in the spring we are going to put out a garden together and keep it up... I'll also be spending thanksgiving and Christmas with his family and he'll be spending it with our family also.. goodness we'll be busy this year. I gotta find him something for his birthday which is coming up before long. he told me not to get him anything but I'm not going to let the day pass without not giving him anything. maybe I'll bake a cake for him?? who knows.. guess we'll see..

<- I love his dimples!
mom says Kenny acts like a whipped dog.. waiting for me to tell him to jump... she said he's crazy over me! and I'm crazy over him! One day we'll be together for good!

Weekend in Gatlinburg...

Right now I'm just going to upload some pics then I'll do an actual blog tomorrow.

<- Friday night in gatliburg. <- Saturday day before we left to come home.

here's a song we listened to on the way home. he said it was our song

We are two ordinary souls Who walked that lonely road

For days and nights on end And we searched a million faces

And all those lonely places For the smile of one true friend

What are the chances out In life’s parade Of two hearts embracing In this masquerade

Chorus:We are the ending of a prayer fulfilled We are the fire that others long to build A poet’s vision that has come this far We dreamed of something real and now we are

We feel we are love’s great design Our thoughts can intertwine Though both of us are strong And we know we’ll stumble There’s no doubt but we ain’t walking out That thinking don’t belong Heaven worked too long, Too hard to get us here So we’ll love each other And just let him steer

Chorus

A poet’s vision that has come this far We dreamed of something real And now we are

well I got to see Kenny tonight!! and meet his parents.. they are real nice. we looked at a house tonight about fifteen Min's from my house. its really cute, he's thinking about getting it. his mom asked me to come over Sunday to their family dinner. I can't wait until he moves!! I miss him so much when I'm not with him..

Amber had her baby today she is a doll! I'll have to upload pics for you soon. mom and baby are doing fine. sorry this is short but gotta get ready to head to bed. I got a ton of things to do the next few days before mine and Kenny's trip to gatlinburg.

so.. Kenny just left a little while ago.. I didn't want him to go home.. but I know he had too. we went and looked at a house while he was here, its cute! I hope he's able to get it... he's going to call about it tomorrow.. our date Friday night was fun. he took me out for ice cream, he bought me a cookie dough blizzard.. it was really good. their was two girls sitting at the table behind us and they kept staring at us then finally they got up and moved tables... kinda strange. oh well.. this coming weekend he's going to Gatlinberg with us Friday night, and Sunday I'm going to his family dinner with him... pray for me I hope it's not to weird and awkward. well he made it home safe and sound so I'm gonna head to bed myself. gotta work tomorrow and have a ton of homework to get finished before the weekend... wonder when we'll be engaged? I also found out he talked to my pastor before he asked me out. I'm not sure what they talked about but what ever it was he must have liked it.

<- us at Golden Corral fixing to eat.

Hey! sorry I've not updated for the last few days.. been super busy staying on top of my school work and talking to Kenny.. Roni he's the best! we have a date tomorrow night.. its up to me were we go to eat.. all he says when I ask him is "Fri night is all about you, and as long as were together that's all I could care about" I'm thinking about going out for ice cream and then coming back to the house and watching a movie... but we'll see. I do know we are going to look at a house for him tomorrow.. lord willing he'll be able to move soon. two weeks from Sunday his family is having a dinner and they want me to come so I'm thinking about going.. I'm just scared about meeting someones family... I know what happened last time. oh well if the Lords in it everything will be fine.

<- me and Kenny at Charity's house saturday night after church. we were watching them play a game and talking..

I'll let ya know how the date goes.. = D

Hey roni! hope you had a great weekend. sorry If you was on msn Saturday and I wasn't... was busy getting the house ready for company. Kenny came over as soon as he got off work and got ready for church and then we rode to church together. He is so sweet... all weekend if someone asked Kenny where we was going to eat or if we was coming over he was like "it's whatever she wants." Mom really likes him! Sunday we went to the park and watched people from church play softball and talked. then we came back to the house and warmed up the chili I made Saturday and ate.. then after we finished eating Kenny Played the banjo for a little while and sung.. He really wants to move before winter hits roni please keep him in your prayers so he can find a place soon. he told me tonight when he left that he didn't want to leave..
<-me and Kenny at the park.
this morning at church my pastor preached a message on faith.. it was a great service. at the end he had a prayer line and the whole church got prayed for. he prayed that the lord would keep us safe from the H1N1(Swine Flu) that is going around and any other disease that might come along. well I hate to cut this short put I need to get back to my psychology homework so I don't have much to do tomorrow.

"I'm gonna be gone In the twinking of an eye
I'm gonna be gone won't have time to say good-bye
I'm gonna be gone could be while I'm singing this song.
I'm gonna be gone and it wont be long I'm gonna be gone."

Roni I missed talking to you today. Hopefully we can chat tomorrow. this last week has been amazing. = D can't wait for the weekend... thank goodness it's almost here.... Kenny's coming up Saturday when he gets off work.. can't wait to see him... and hopefully next week he's coming to get me one night when he gets off work so I can go with him when he sings and plays. I hope its any day but Thursday since I have training Thursday night for the hospital in somerset so I can continue volunteering. he's the most sweetest person I think I have ever met. He is truly my blessing from God. I'm trying to pass the time waiting on Kenny to get home from playing with his group tonight.

ok enough rambling on the subject of Kenny. don't want to bore you to death. haha I trust you are you doing well. remember your always in my prayer.

Great News!

so.. I got home from work today to find out I didn't have to go baby sit. which was great. don't get me wrong I love my little kids I keep but was grateful for an evening off. well Kenny called today when he got off work.. he was on his way home.. said he was going to stop at the bass pro shop get some bait and go fishing on the pond. but that wasn't the real reason he called. he called to ask me if I was single and that he was glad my mom asked him if he wanted my number. he also said that for the last six months he had been wanting to ask me out but was scared that people would think he was coming to church just too see me and not for church. he was also scared that some other guy would start talking to me and take me and he'd miss out on his chance. I explained the whole situation with Mitch and how he treated me the way he did. Kenny did not care one bit about it all. he said that he was looking for a good christian girl and that he believed he found a pretty good girl. he also didn't like how Mitch had treated me and that he wasn't a man. Kenny kept calling him a boy. he said that he believed that the man should move because in the bible it says "a man shall leave his mother and father and cling to his wife" so he's fixing to start looking for an apartment or a house.. which ever comes first and move. = D he also said I wouldn't have to worry about his family treating me like Mitch's family did. that it was his choice and no one else. that his family viewed it like, if a girl he picked was good enough for him, then she was good enough for the family. I'm really going to start counting down the days until I see him now.. = D roni, he is so sweet! I really honestly believe that the lord is in this. I'm so happy!

Wonderful weekend = D

church this weekend was amazing! the little brother that preached did an awesome job! just the way he brought out some things. he said something along the lines like when you speak the word God starts working on it. when he said that it was like I got hit with a ton of bricks. I thought to myself " I've been praying for someone to treat me right and what does God do he sends me Kenny" he was also preaching about Just once more lord. It was a wonderful service this morning. all of them were but something about this mornings service was totally different.

last night after church I spent the night with Che. had fun. went to her sisters house and hung out and listened to the guys play music... Kenny was their and he was playing his banjo. He would look at me and if I caught him looking at me he would turn all red and look down.. then he would end up messing up on the banjo.. it was so funny but cute when he got all bashful. once he figured out what was happening he just gave up on playing the banjo all together.

Mom finally asked him if he wanted my number after church and he said "yeah I want it just too shy to ask for it" so mom got it and gave it too him. then at our church dinner he goes "your mom gave me your number." I told him " I know she told me in the car" now... below is our first picture together of many more to come. = D

well I'm going to head to bed here in a few. gotta get up Early and start my week so the weekend will get here faster.. Five days! = D

Roni, Below are pictures I took around somerset. you always seem to post pictures of things around you but I never have so here they are... =D
<- the road that has three lanes on each side.. <- this is the gym where I work out at in the mornings before I head to work. although I haven't been in a while.. hopefully I'll head their tomorrow morning..

<>

<-the famous McDonalds.. haha

<- this guy is really strange. he walks up and down the street carrying a bible, running up to cars and trying to preach to you. while it's never happened to me I've seen others. the reason I say he is strange is because of the way he acts.. everyone thinks the guy is stupid. me on the other my heart goes out to him cause he doesn't know the word like we know it, but he's giving it his best.

we are having special meetings this weekend.. I can hardly wait for church and to see someone.. only five days.

Kutless - What Faith Can Do
From the album It Is Well

Everybody falls sometimes Gotta find the strength to rise From the ashes and make a new beginning Anyone can feel the ache You think it’s more than you can take But you are stronger, stronger than you know Don’t you give up now The sun will soon be shining You gotta face the clouds To find the silver lining

I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains Hope that doesn’t ever end Even when the sky is falling And I’ve seen miracles just happen Silent prayers get answered Broken hearts become brand new That’s what faith can do

It doesn’t matter what you’ve heard Impossible is not a word It’s just a reason for someone not to try Everybody’s scared to death When they decide to take that step Out on the water It’ll be alright Life is so much more Than what your eyes are seeing You will find your way If you keep believing

I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains Hope that doesn’t ever end Even when the sky is falling And I’ve seen miracles just happen Silent prayers get answered Broken hearts become brand new That’s what faith can do

Overcome the odds You do have a chance (That’s what faith can do) When the world says you can’t It’ll tell you that you can!

I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains Hope that doesn’t ever end Even when the sky is falling And I’ve seen miracles just happen Silent prayers get answered Broken hearts become brand new That’s what faith can do That's what faith can do! Even if you fall sometimes You will have the strength to rise

this is like one of the best songs I've heard in a while. I don't know what it is but I love it. my favorite line is "silent prayers get answered broken hearts become brand new"

well I've had a very interesting weekend if I do say so myself. been busy with school and church. today I went to the park and watch the guys play softball. I ended up playing with some of the babies from church =D then came home and turned in some homework and played CSI on the computer for a while I finally solved a case I had been working on for a while. probably gonna play another case here in a few.

church this weekend was good. we have special meetings come up in two weeks. looking forward to them..

roni hope everything is going well with you!

well I'm home from a very busy day. went to church this morning and then rushed to get everything ready for amber's baby shower =D her little one will be here in six weeks. I'm looking forward to her being here.. I've tried to upload pictures but blogger is being crazy and will not let me. I'll try again tomorrow, hopefully I'll have better luck. Roni, I hope you are doing ok? hopefully I'll be back on msn here soon and we'll be able to chat and catch up on everything coming and going. =] I've missed talking to you. I've been fighting a head cold for about three weeks now coughing, sneezing, stuffy noise ugh. but I believe I'm healed and I will be better soon.

sorry this is short but I'm going to head to bed here soon, going to put the baby kittens out. it's starting to get colder here which means winter is almost upon us.

just a quick update. schools been going all right having trouble with trigonometry but with God on my side I will pass. Roni, I remember you in my prayers I don't know what it is your going through but remember God can't put any more on us then we can handle. and that before the devil can do anything to us he must first check with our heavenly father above. sometimes I wonder what made God think I could handle the whole mess with Mitch. I guess he thinks I'm a lot stronger then I thought I was. the petting zoo is doing well. =D they all have been so spoiled its sad. my turtle every morning has his head sticking outta his shell waiting for breakfast.. its cute to watch him swim around and play. I need to find another turtle to put with him so he'll have a friend.

I'm throwing my best friend a baby shower this weekend for her baby girl. can't wait for her to get here.

uncle Dave is here to change out our router for the Internet so I'm going to get off here.

<-my dog..

<-this is my turtle squirt, sorry the picture isn't to clear.

<-my cats eating..

<-momma kitty sleeping away.

well, I don't believe I need any more pets.. the only ones missing are the hermit crabs. but I figured you wouldn't want to see them. Roni sorry I missed you this morning I wasn't out of bed.. I take advantage of sleeping in when I can. I'm counting down the days until schools out haha. hopefully it'll get here soon! then I'll have more time to do what ever. last weekend after church we played softball, had a blast, this weekend we played but I stayed home to catch up on some homework so I can start this week fresh. I've been trying to stay up on it so I wouldn't be lost and behind. next weekend I'm throwing amber a baby shower for baby Nevaeh (Heaven spelled backwards) here in a few weeks we are having special meetings I'm looking forward to them.

so this week is going to be a good week, my crime shows come back on and House comes back on... its gonna be a good week.. crime and medical mysteries. what a strange combination. and I have a guy coming to fix my piano =]

here's a funny story, I went to the eye doctor last week, well when I got their they lost my chart from every time I had ever been to the eye doctor. so I spent most of the time waiting. haha, I ended up finding my own chart and then when they were going to get me some contacts to do me until I could get some ordered they didn't have them. so.. my eye doctor cut my bill in half for all the trouble. they lose my chart every time I go..

well I'm gonna get off here, I'm gonna work some more on some homework and then head to bed I guess.

where does the time go? Its been a while since I've updated and this month just seems to pass on by. goodness. been busy with working and school. schools going well if I do say so myself. really looking forward to fall break though so I can get caught up, I'm not too far behind on the homework just the reading. I'm so busy I made myself a to do list. haha! going tomorrow to check on a job at Wayne county hospital which is about 1o mins from my house. lord willing I'll get hired. well I know this is short but I'm gonna get of here and take a shower, uncle Dave is coming over to help me with my psychology test so I can get it finished a lot quicker then on my own. haha. roni I trust you are doing well.

I Just Stopped By On My Way Home
1) My life has been blessed in so many ways with family and friends day after day but I can't stay here, soon i'll be gone I just stopped by,on my way home

chorus) I just stopped by on my way home I just stopped by on my way home I'm just passing through I'm Just Passing throughI can't stay here long I Can't stay very long for I must go meet my Jesus around Gods throne I just stopped by on my way home

2)My heart is set on that heavenly shore My mind is stayed on Jesus My Lord well it seems I can hear the heavenly song I just stopped by on my way home.

well had a pretty good weekend. Friday night I went shopping with mom, then ate out with uncle Dave, and aunt Rhonda at golden corral. then Saturday didn't do very much just stayed around the house and made home made BBQ. then church we had communion =] then Sunday went to church, and out to eat at hardee's with everyone. Sunday night went and seen Amber in Columbia. she threw her husband a birthday party. had a cook out monday and my pastor and his wife, his kids, and grand kids, me mom and Rhonda Dave all got together.



back to work tomorrow.. not looking forward to it at all. but at least it'll be a short week. I'm so ready for the weekend again.. haha

my life...

been a while since I've update. been pretty busy lately with school and work. I've also been thinking a lot.. seems like that's all I ever do. Thinking about what the next day will hold. I've also been thinking a lot about lessons I've learned in life just over the last year or so. The only one that really sticks out with me is not to be too trusting cause nine times outta ten you will get hurt. I've been thinking a lot on the whole mess with me and Mitch, and what happened at camp when brother Fred told me to keep believing and that he saw him coming up that hill. I finally took my engagement ring off Monday night.. but now I'm even questioning if that was the right thing to do? I feel like I'm giving up on me and Him. I've always told Mitch that once I took it off that was it, to forget about me.. but in reality down in my heart I can't forget about him. I've tried. the guy that liked me at church said that I needed to wait on Mitch and that he didn't like me after all, that he prayed about it and just seen us as friends. now I'm wondering why God would allow this to happen? is he protecting both of us from getting hurt, or did God not allow it because he knew Mitch would come back and really love me? another thing that really stays on my mind a lot is why come I couldn't marry the one I loved when everyone else around me got to marry their one true love, or the one they wanted to be with their whole life? part of me feels like I've got the wrong end of the deal and its so hard to not get hateful thoughts about it, or to keep from asking God why outta of the millions of people why me? what did I do to deserve to go trough all of this? what I wouldn't give to have a family...

Roni, the above is just me rambling getting stuff off my mind.. don't feel bad for me.. part of me is grateful that I went through what I did. I believe it made me a stronger Christan now then I was before and one day Mitch will grow. who knows why we even go through the things we do. I keep trusting that the next day will be better then the day before. anyway enough of me rambling going to watch house and work on some trig. Roni please keep me in your prayers.

so.. busy weekend.. Friday night went out to eat at the Mexican restaurant with the youth group then played volleyball and basketball at the park. Then I baby sat Saturday night and Sunday day.. went to church.. went to a surprise birthday party... and a little boy in my church got baptized Sunday after church. that's about it.. not a lot is happening this week.. working on school work all week and Friday night going to Cumberland falls to see the moonbow. I really hate to cut this short, but I'm going to put the kittens out and head to bed, gotta get up early and go to work.. roni I hope your doing well.

School

<- me waiting for my turn to play putt putt golf the sun was in my eyes.

<- see no evil, Hear no evil, speak no evil

<- me and mom playing putt putt golf

I don't know where to start really.. been kinda busy.. school is in full swing and I'm really not liking it to well. I did learn in my solar system class tho that the stars are 40 trillion KM or 25 trillion miles away from the earth. and that the stars come up four minutes earlier every night then the day before. My Trigonometry class is going alright so far, just keep me in your prayers cause I want to come out of all my classes with A's and B's.

so I haven't talked to Mitch in almost a week he's feel off the face of the earth again.. he's really going to have to grow up.. I found a jeep last week and I have it on hold, but if I don't get my insurance check soon I don't know if they will hold it much longer.

not to mention my lap top is going dead also. will update again

well I'm going to get off here sorry to cut it short but I'm going to read some more in my solar system book and head to bed.. roni I have been praying for you.

well I just tracked my Ups shipment of books for school. they are scheduled to be at my house tomorrow look out trig cause I'm going to start studying it I believe or i might wait. I do have to find my calculator tho. oh well. Talked to Mitch today, his brother came home from the hospital. but I'm not sure if he is still having seizures or not Mitch hasn't said.<-sunset over the gulf of Mexico
I'm ready to be outta school for good, start my career and get on with my life.. instead of being tied down to stupid books. oh well in time I will be and it'll all pay off. roni, just pray for me this fall I'm going to work my fingers off and try to get all A's and B's. so if I don't update much you'll know why.. my head is in a book..

Just thought I would up date real quick while sitting at work. today is going by rather slow, wished I was home, I need to be getting things done around the house that will have to be put off until Friday night or Saturday morning. I have to babysit tonight and I'm already kinda dreading it, I have all six kids and most of them cry the whole night.. Monday night I only had four but they drove me crazy. ugh.. oh well I love them like they were family and would do anything for them. maybe I'll search the web for an activity that we can do tonight. guess we'll see.

school is suppose to be out for two weeks now, but I got an email from one of my instructor's saying that he was going to open my trigonometry class this coming Monday and that we could go ahead and get started on it. hopefully he wont have anything posted and I'll be able to wait till the following Monday. however I do kinda want to get a jump start on the semester so maybe I can finish it up before the semester is over. guess we'll just have to see. Roni, just keep me in your prayers cause I'm already tired from my summer class and mentally not rested to tackle four classes this fall.

My insurance adjuster totalled my jeep out, said it'd cost about $5045.00 dollars to fix it. so lord willing I am just going to buy another jeep and be done with it. told mom the other day that losing my jeep was just as bad as losing Mitch... now that's sad..

Mitch is doing good. works all the time but he's good. he's still being stubborn about moving as am I but I know God will work it out in time that we will be living here in KY where I believe God wants us. when Mitch asked about what to do about the moving situation all I said was "I'm not worried about it right now and when the time comes the lord will work it out"

welp, I'm going to get off here and start working on Dad's taxes so maybe I can get them finished before heading home to go babysit. roni, sorry I broke my promise about updating more I've just have been so busy these last few weeks. I do think about you a lot and keep you in my prayers.

well I'm home from vacation and back to the same old same old stuff.. ugh.. I'd rather be off on the beach again. had a real nice time until the ride home, we was driving on the interstate driving 75-80 mph and all of a sudden this guy in a little red car switch lanes and cut a guy off well the guy slammed on his brakes to keep from hitting him, then Wayne (my brother) slammed the brakes on in my jeep to keep from hitting the guy in front of him, he got slowed down but not enough and ended up hitting the guy in the back end, then Daryl (my other brother, I was riding with) slammed his brakes on to get slowed down but again it was enough so once he realized that no matter which way he went he was going to hit my jeep so he turned it to the right and floored it resulting in taking out my tail light and messing the finder up but he got out of the way without getting hit any more, it then skipped a car and about seven other cars behind us wrecked also you could see cars going every where, stuff flying off of cars and smoke. the lord was with us that's for sure cause none of us was really hurt and we was still able to make it home. their was about ten or so cars in the pile up.

~ Vacation ~

well just thought I'd up date... sitting here in our beach house watching T.V. waiting on someone to text back. this trip has been pretty fun.... we went to the navy base today and spent the day in the aviation museum and looked at all the navy ships and airplanes. I don't know what we are going to do tomorrow.. I've spent most of my time laying on the beach watching the kids play in the ocean and enjoying the sun. I'm so sleepy but I'm also enjoying the time off from work.

5 days until the beach!

it seems like every time I update this thing I'm always baby sitting. goodness.. the weekend was a very nice one. Saturday night we had communion at church and it was also my birthday. then Sunday I had my party around 4:30 pm. a lot of people showed up which was nice. ate hamburgers and then had ice cream cake =]

so Saturday morning I am leaving for beach. going to gulf shores Alabama. I'm going with both of my brothers I can not wait I'll have a week off to do absolutely nothing! I'm looking so forward to it. we are staying in a beach house =] which will be real nice.

well, I know this is short but my goal this week is to have all my homework finished before I leave for the beach.

Wednesday, July 8, 2009

well the kids are watching shark tales... which they wont get to watch all of because its about their bed time. I'm sitting at the kitchen table working on homework which is boring! I still haven't heard from the guy at the hospital so I'm planning on going to the beach in a little over a week.

so today went out for my birthday.. had manicures and pedicures... =] oh and we also went out to eat... had a blast.

I'm not sure what I should do. Mitch is still texting. I gave in and have talked to him the last three nights but I'm afraid that things are going to be back the way they were before long. Its probably just the devil and I'm trying to take the opposite of what he tells me. I'm also trying to have faith that God is working it out as we talk. he's been wanting to call but that is where I've been drawing the line. I want to hear his voice so bad that I cant stand it. I started talking to him cause every time I didn't I felt like I was going to miss God working things out with us, and I don't want that at all. so I'm kinda stuck..

I guess I'm going to get off here, and start working on homework again.. as bad as I hate too. or at least until the kids go to bed and Mitch gets out of church. Roni I am still praying for you.

Sunday, July 5, 2009

Spent the weekend with dad. had a blast.. a lot of my family from Texas and Ohio came down for the fourth of July.. played games like corn hole, and hillbilly golf, the youngin's had a water balloon fight, while others played pool.
<-eating some watermelon. here in the pic is my niece Breanna, Shelby, and by cousin Mayiah
<-every one singing me happy birthday... I had no clue about it... took me by surprise.

Someone texted me this afternoon... I texted back just bc he was asking what i texted the other day and all it was.. was an invite to my bday party. he texted again and asked what i had been up 2 but I didn't text back.

mom will be home pro on Wednesday or Thursday.. =] I miss her... but I'm glad she is having fun.. well roni i know this is short but I'm going to head off to bed. your in my prayers.

Tuesday, June 30, 2009

so. I took the time to update. I'm sitting at work doing nothing right now but relaxing, its hot outside and kinda slow here in the office. my cousin is trying to get the desktop computer to work, it supposedly got another virus... school is going good but crazy speaking of which that's what I should be doing right now instead of updating but i wanted to post to let ya know what all is going on around here. Mom is on vacation, I talked to her a little while ago and she's having a blast walking around looking in shops. miss her, but I'm glad she got to go. tonight I have to run to wal-mart to get some ink for the printer I need to print off some homework that I need to do. I also need to run by cell one at some point this week and get my razor fixed the screen went out on it yesterday when I was babysitting. I went by school today to see about getting my classes for next semester but my advisor was not in his office so maybe later this week. I'm also going to start going back to the gym tomorrow and work out I have not been in a month other then to just lay in the tanning bed.

<-@ a cook out @ my aunts house.

so this weekend is fourth of July!! I can't wait it's going to be so much fun. my dad's side of the family is coming in so I'll be their most of the weekend... fire works Friday night then Saturday night we are having a BBQ. hope someone brings the watermelon. sounds good. we also do not have church this weekend which is a total bummer. but I understand why we are not having it. which not having is a blessing in its self so I can get caught up on school work and hopefully get ahead again. but I would rather be in church don't get me wrong.

Saturday well be a week until my birthday! I can't wait!! Monday I'm ordering my ice cream cake, and I'm going to see about getting a place at the park to have my cook out for my party.

Wednesday, June 24, 2009

so.. Four of the kids are in bed asleep, while the other two I can hear running around in their room... when they should be laying in bed watching the fire flies from their beds...

I'm thinking about taking a vacation.... not going any where but staying at my house and being lazy. I'm suppose to be getting a job at the hospital here in a few weeks. I talked to the guy yesterday and he said he'd call me before the end of the week. so before I start my job their I'm going to take a week off before I start working two jobs.

roni, pray that the lord will help me to get caught up in school... I'm so far behind...

well I'm going to get off here... its quite in the house now, and I'm fixing to go check on all of them to make sure they are asleep. sorry this is a short update and that i haven't been commenting on your blog. just been really busy lately.

Sunday, June 21, 2009

well its been a busy weekend.. Friday night went to the fair with some people from church, took my baby niece with me too.. Saturday I went to my brothers and swam in his pool, I actually believe I've got an ear infection from getting water in my ears. church Saturday night. Sunday which is today I went to church, choir practice, then to my dads to hang out with him for fathers day.. all I got him was two pics, one of him and his mom, and one of him and his dad and I got them blown up bigger then what they were. I also was going to take him out to eat but he said it was too hot to think about eating so I just went to his house and watched TV with him... then I ended up making pancakes for supper and we ate those together.
words to a song we sung at church today.

The best it yet to come when i walk through heavens gates for the first time i see Jesus, i can hardly wait, he will show me to my mansion say child this is your home i have a feeling in my heart that the best is yet to come

here's the words to our new choir song.
Praise Him in advance Marvin Sapp

I've had my share of ups and downs, times when there was no one around, God came and spoke these words to me, praise will confuse the enemy. (repeat 2x)

I started singing, I started clapping, I started dancing, people were laughing, they knew my problems, they knew my pain, but I knew God could(would) take them away.

That’s why I praise him with my hands, that’s why I praise him with a dance, He’s given me a second chance, come on lets praise him in advance.

Roni sorry about today on msn another busy day at the shop. I'm at my job babysitting.. the kids are in bed and its nice and quite all I hear is the Tv and the sound of me typing. I should be doing my homework haha.. I only have about 30 Min's and I should be heading home. I made father day cards with the kids. took blue paint for the boys and pink for the girls. and put on their hands and they put their hands on the paper which left their hand prints, and I found this nice poem about fathers. I got my car back from the body shop today, can't even tell that it had ever been hit. =]

I was listening to the radio today and this guy was talking about formal churches and how they don't call the sanctuary but an auditorium, how they dance in the name of worship, how they pratice rock and roll in the sanctuary and not think twice about it. made since when you really thought about it.. makes me glad to be in a church that teaches the truth.

well going to get off here, got a call from keith he'll be here before too much longer and it'll be time for me to go home.. roni i'll talk to ya tomorrow. God Bless

<- the craft I did with the kids for fathers day. mom thinks I should be a preschool teacher...

Tuesday, June 16, 2009

well I just got home from checking out the damage from the storms that passed over a few hours ago. their was a few trees down but nothing that I saw other then that. tomorrow I could see more since it'll be day light tonight it was kinda dusky when me, mom, and Nathanael when out. I've been kinda lazy today.. although I did work on some home work which is a plus..

my baby kittens are getting so big =] I'll post pics soon. church over the weekend was really good!! Saturday was the best.
I know this is short but I'm going to head to bed its getting late and I believe I'm going to go to bed soon. I have to baby sit tomorrow I've missed them since they have been on their camping trip. roni hope 2 talk 2 you tomorrow. Lord Bless.

Tuesday, June 9, 2009

well i'm home from babysitting... Me and nathan went and baby set one of the paramedics kids that works with uncle Dave.. His kids are really well behaved.. the oldest is 6 and the youngest is 7 months. we only had four kids tonight, he has six all together. he's paying me 6 dollars an hour two nights a week while he's teaching EMT classes.

any way eating a late night supper.. fixing to go to bed I am wore out his kids are very active and on the go but their fun.. have to work tomorrow

roni hope you have a good week. lord bless.

Tuesday, June 2, 2009

<- so they decided to use their brother/sister as a pillow.. gee poor thing.

just a quick update before I head off to bed. the kittens are getting so big.. I wished they were still newborn.. their eyes are still shut. I think it's neat to watch momma kitty take care of them. even though she's never had kittens before now it's like she knows what to do and when to do it.. almost like when a girl becomes a momma for the first time. the instincts are already their just waiting for the right time.

work has been going good I'm still filing paper work so hopefully tomorrow will be my last catch up day and then I'm going to stay on top of it. it usually gets behind when I'm in school and it doesn't help when the new office personal that is suppose to help me doesn't file a thing, he just puts it in a box and sets it in the office.. he says "outta sight outta mind" and then leaves it up to me to sort Thur the big mess.

I've also been working on paper work for my dad's company.. so that's been crazy as well. but it'll be worth it once I'm finished. I'm putting everything on my lap top so it'll be nice and organized. which will be a plus. I've about got that stack finished that I brought home with me the other night. today is also my niece's birthday she just turned 3..

so tomorrow I'm planning on going to the hospital and working.. haven't been their in a while since I haven't had my car. looking forward to it.. it'll be my relaxation for the week I guess...

Thursday night when I get off working I'm going to try and run to dad's and get more paper work then I'm going to get my garden planted and things on the way. dad informed me today that he didn't want to eat cucumbers in September. although he was just teasing me.. gotta love my daddy.

Friday night I have another graduation to go too. I went to one Monday night.. Isaac Graduated Middle school and is now in High school. Friday Is almost my nephews birthday.. he's getting so big.

Saturday I'm going outta the state and going to Tennessee to eat at Cheaders.. Saturday night is church..

Sunday is church, birthday parties, and a church cookout.

well I believe I've covered everyday day this week.. so roni if I don't have time to update you'll know whats happening.. I also would like to get my car cleaned out this week some time... guess that's one of the things I'll have to keep my fingers crossed on and hope it gets done. I believe I'm going to start writing a weekly list of things I want to get finished before the next week... welp going to get off here and brush my teeth and head to bed. night.

<- the flowers I planted.

<- and again.

<- my garden..

<- momma kitty

<- and baby kittens! I would love to keep all of them =]

roni.. sorry its taken me so long to update.. I've been pretty busy... work has been crazy.. I have so much filing to do... that's all I've been doing since last Tues. Saturday I was sick all day. running a fever of 99.9... it was all I could do to find the energy to get ready for church.. today after church I worked in my garden. I believe I've over done it cause now my back is killing me on top of getting over what ever it was I had yesterday. not much going on this week working, going and seeing dad, going to two graduations and that's about it other then working in my garden again. last Sunday night I went to the gun range and shot guns. had so much fun.. its kinda addicting too. cause each time you want to do better. and I also planted flowers last weekend. anyway roni, I need your address again, would u care to email it to me? I don't know why I keep misplacing it. I'll write it in my address book this time.. anyway I guess I'm going to get settled in for the night and maybe kick back and watch a movie and then get ready for bed. good night and god bless.
