NEW FLOOR!!

Oh i can't wait....I have been looking a bare floor now for 4 days! It started off i was going to lay down some cheap peel and stick floor for my dining room, until my dad came to visit and seen what i was doing, oh my gosh this place was a disaster..the dining room carpet was ripped up, the walls painted, and furniture EVERYWHERE! well i explained what i was planning to do. He said, "you don't want that kind of floor, it will never last" I told him that i was planning on installing laminate flooring when we had the money saved up, and this was just temporary, i am tired of carpet in my dining room, I showed him a sample of the laminate flooring i had picked out......he said, " Just do the whole thing (living and dining room) in that stuff...." I told him I couldn't afford it right now but i would love too......well, he offered to pay for all of it as birthday present for my kids....(their b-days just past Feb. and Mar.) i refused ...but he insisted..i couldn't believe it. I am absolutely going to love it The carpet we ripped up was nasty...no wonder this house was so dusty all the time..I have only lived here 7 years and no one wears shoes in my house...i don't know where the dirt came from, but i can say i will never have carpet again in my main rooms...wait, i don't know yet, i haven't put down my flooring...i may not like it... yeah right..lol We are installing it tomorrow morning...well today, depending on which way you look at it. it is after midnight! I will take pictures and post them throughout the installation....my bf don't think he can do it, i have faith in him, I'll supervise ............and help of course..

The power of prayer

 We were taught, as kids, to pray for things the we want to see, have or what we want to turn out. So many prayers seem as though they go unanswered but God will only grant you what you see yourself worthy of. Imagination is a powerful thing. Everything we see that was built by man started in a mind first, a dream, or a desire.  God is our father. If I wanted to give my child something they longed for and they turned their head in shame as though they were not worthy of it, it would break my heart. How would I know they really needed it if they didn’t ask for it or seen themselves worthy of having it? Turn to your father, ask for forgiveness, not just because you have done wrong but ask for forgiveness that you feel the shame inside, the regret, the missed opportunities that you gave up. Ask for forgiveness that you never had faith that God was leading you all long and you ignored the blessings because someone told you that you weren’t worthy. Know your worth and give thanks t...

Everyone wants to be rich...Just another complaint session..ha ha

I was watching  " How'd you get so rich" and it got me thinking....ha ha..here I go again thinking.  I really don't think I would want to be rich...yeah maybe have a little extra money to play with, but to be a millionaire or billionaire...no!!  In order to be rich you would have to take money from someone else, like people  who are hard working, living paycheck to paycheck, or people paying for something they will never really own. The Lottery for instance...some people spend several dollars a week on the lottery in hopes to be rich, or just a few dollars richer...they (lottery) are making a killing off of that few dollars a week...The same goes for these gambling places...People spend their whole paychecks on a machine!!! They are not stupid!!...you can't get rich from those machines...but I'll guarantee that they are getting rich from your hard earned money!!! The $100-$200 pair of jeans...come on people don't tell me you spend that on jeans?? ...

I Miss Me!

 It's been almost 6 years since I last wrote about anything.  So much has happened since then.  I love to write, not saying I'm a novelist, (one of my unrealistic goals), but to me, it's the same has having a conversation. I love to talk... about life, dreams, the unknown, how life works and why things happen or exist.  I really enjoy figuring out complex behaviors or solutions to ailments.  Long story short...I think I just enjoy learning and understanding.  Somewhere in the past, I left myself behind.  Who am I now? where did the old me go? why did I change? I would describe my inner self as caring, funny, creative, artist, crafty, fun, talkative, loved to dance, write, talk to anyone kind of woman.  (... that word alone makes me feel old...but 'girl' is too young and "lady" is too proper to describe me lol...Ugg) anyway... I was that person, not so much anymore. I tend to shy away from being outgoing to more reserved or "shadowed" is a better ...
