the two just dont mix!

These two things do not equal anything good when one, is in another! Today just hasn't been a very lucky day for me! As most of you know about a month ago my Palm Treo took a swim into the very nsaty and very green pool when I was trying to get it clean. Well, I got a new phone and today my new phone decides to jump out of my back pocket and dive into the lovely toilet at my parents house! What is it with my phone and wanting to swim? I cant imagine why they would want to dive into such a nasty place, I mean really!!

So my poor phone is now drying out and it will turn on for a second then it will start trying to text and do voice commands. If my phone calls you and there is no one at the other end....SORRY!

WHAT A DAY!!! just sayin'. Hope everyone had a better day than I did :)

2009 is coming!

I can not wait for 2009. So much happened in 2008 that I wish hadn't happened and some things that I am glad happened. I am not a person to make New Years Resolutions. I don't believe in them. I feel it sets you up for failure and I just don't want that. I do keep in my mind things I would like to accomplish but if I don't get them done, then maybe next year Lord willing I will get them done. I absolutely hate when people say I am going to loose weight and start my diet January 1st. Why not start now? Why wait until Monday or new years day?? In one of the blogs I read, they said here is a list of things I will not do in 2009, I still think you are setting yourself up, but whatever. So I am going to say "I will try to do these things". First, I want to be healthy. I want to get to a point where I feel great about myself and my appearance. Second, I want to learn to forgive and be happy. I am going to start now and not wait until 2009 though, just sayin' :)

Be done, move on!

Why do people these days feel they have to drag something out till there isn't anything to drag anymore? I just don't get why people can't forgive and move on. I am speaking to myself too! This world would be a happier place to live in if we were taught to love more and forgive more. Everyone at some point in their life has been hurt by someone and I think everyone just needs to grow up and move on. In class one Wednesday night a lady spoke up and said," You may ask God for forgiveness and he forgive you, but you still have to deal with the consequences that your sin brought on". I do think that is true to a point, but at sometime that consequences has to fade away! Be done, move on! Just sayin'

RAIN RAIN

GO AWAY! It just had to rain on the day I am getting all dressed up, what's up with that?! I am thankful for the rain dont get me wrong but,today why oh why!!!!

What the heck!!

So this morning the tornado sirens went off at 5:30AM. I know I should be grateful we have these things but why do they have to go off when there is NO tornado!!! I just sat down after getting JR off to work at 4:45am and I thought to myself "why go back to bed,just to wake up in an hour" so I got a cup of coffee and sat down to watch some much needed TV (I know, there is never a "need" to watch TV...roll with it) I get all cozy and start watching a DVR'd show and then all heck explodes. Sirens a-blarren (yes, a-blarren its a southern word), Ali crying, dogs barking! WOW what a way to tense a mom up! In the process of trying to switch the DVR to regular TV to see if my house was about to be sucked up into a whirl wind, I accidentally deleted my show!! I finally get the kids on the couch wrapped in blankets, the TV on the news, then they say The National Weather in B'ham jumped the gun a little too quickly the Tornado warning for Montgomery has expired! WHAT...so when we were possibly in danger the sirens DIDN'T go off BUT when we were no longer under the warning they go OFF...Hummm....maybe someone should check on that...I'm just sayin'

What is a Friend?

Webster says:
1 a: one attached to another by affection or esteem b: acquaintance2 a: one that is not hostile b: one that is of the same nation, party, or group3: one that favors or promotes something (as a charity)4: a favored companion5capitalized : a member of a Christian sect that stresses Inner Light, rejects sacraments and an ordained ministry, and opposes war —called also Quaker
— friend·less \ˈfren(d)-ləs\ adjective
— friend·less·ness noun
— be friends with
: to have a friendship or friendly relationship with

Now here is what Helen says:

A friend is someone you can call anytime of day NO MATTER what. A friend is someone who truly knows the "real you".

In the Military some people have their A,B and C friends. Each letter stands for the level of friendship. (A) is the person that you call and they will be on a plane coming to be by your side and, are also B and C combine. (B) is a friend that you call a couple times a month if you live far way and if you live in the same town you go to dinner etc. (C) is the friend you can catch up with and it be the same as the day you left. Now,I know that may sound weird to you, but it is true! I have those friends, but never thought of it that way until I heard a friend here explain it.

My true friends know when I am hurting and can tell by my voice or the look in my eyes that I need to talk and they will be there to listen.

So do you have your A,B and C friends? Do you agree or disagree?

Oh and girls (insert sassy Helen talk here) *Dont be asking which one you are! (hand on hip and pointer-finger in the air)

**To have a friend you must be a friend....I'm just say'n**
