Wedding Day

Just two months ago I ended a month long Blogging journey to my son's wedding day.

Two months! Can you believe it?

He was even sick, had to go to the doctors and get a prescription, all without me. He is better, the penicillin worked and I think he and I grew a little more. Him in independence and me in pride for my sons accomplishments.

Today, my DIL Beka's brother Chris will marry Nicole the love of his life. Steve and I are so happy and proud of Chris and Nicole and in a little way, we will share in the pride of her parents like we shared just two months ago when our children walked down the aisle.

God kept me strong at my sons wedding, but I am feeling really emotional today and I very well may lose it.

I am taking my vintage hankey from my SD pals for me and extra for Steve who just may be a bigger crier than I am.

Today, we will be honored and blessed.

Doggie Park Anyone

Ok, you did not make coffee, feed me and put your uniform on.

WE ARE GOING TO THE PARK TODAY!!!

Yes, you may go out to breakfast, but I will be waiting...

1 hour TIME TO GO!!!

1 1/2 hours NOW I AM GETTING UPSET!!! (The whining begins)

2 hours YOU ARE TAKING WAY TOO LONG!!! (Now we are pacing, whining, and whimpering)

2 1/2 hours I AM WAITING!!!! (Hysterical is all I can say, he has gone to every room in the house to complain to everyone in ear shot,waking Eric)

Eric- What's up with the dog?

Mom- Dad is not back from breakfast yet.

Eric- Oh (We all know what Daddy is doing... Scratchers, the man can play scratchers for HOURS!!)

FINALLY, Daddy comes home, He is greeted by a very unhappy doggie who had to say his peace before allowing his collar to be put on. After Steve got his doggie lecture, they were off.

Ahhhhh Peace and quiet

Dear Mr Pimple

Dear Mr Pimple,

I am now one week from turning 47 and you rarely visit anymore for which I am grateful.

You have decided to make a guest appearance to the side of my nose and I am unsure if I can wait much longer for you to complete your creation.

I have heated, gelled and proactived you and yet you persevere but do not complete your journey.

Hurry up already

Works for me Wednesday- U-

I decided to do a combo thing where I am still catching up on the Thankful Tuesday alphabet and challenge myself to name 10 U things that work for me. on Works for me Wednesday. What is not working for me is typing well with nail tips on Hee Hee Hee

Let's see...I may have to get creative here.

1. Umbrellas- like Lipstick, gloss, purses, and nail polish I am always on the lookout for the perfect Umbrella. Mine would be golf size but folds down, a fun color like pink or leopard that automatically opens and closes with a push of a button. Although for sun protection I do love my pink fabric Japanese parasol.

2. Ultra soft Mary Jane Slipper socks. I highly recommend that everyone with chilly tootsies purchase a pair this wintery season. My new ones from Walgreen's are great! they have grippies on the bottom so you don't skid and they don't fall off because of the strap.

3.Unabridged information- I love to store our social security, drivers license and medical record numbers in my phone book. I can't tell you how many times I have referred to these numbers.

4. Uploaded recipes- I mostly use Recipezaar, You can find any recipe there. I am gonna make Caramel popcorn balls today for youth.

5. Unanimous agreements with my husband, as in when recently used our absentee ballots, we went out for coffee, discussed the issues and voted. It was fun.

6. Understanding Dogs- OK, this has nothing to do with this list at all. It is windy, Yogi has food and water and yet he is bugging me pushing his big nose into my thigh. Somedays I wish he could speak and tell me what he wants like Lassie or Scooby doo.I wish there was a Rosetta Stone for Dog language.

7. Unavailable- Oh how I love caller Id.

8. Unassuming Friends- I have the best friends You included!. I am so grateful and constantly blessed by them. Makes me so sorry for the Real Housewives of wherever show stars, Two gals had been best friends for like three whole years and one decided she likes another lady better so she sends her friend a Text saying she never wants to see her again. Again I say I love my girlfriends

9. Ultra inexpensive reader glasses- I am finding these treasures from the Target dollar isle are becoming a necessity for my beading.

10. Unapologetic- My devotion to God. I talk of him always and I care not about who is listening. I love you lord, and I lift my voice, to worship you, oh my soul rejoice.

Wow... Can't believe I made it!

Pondering

It is a little past 4:30 am, I am on vacation and yet I am awake and can not rest. Several people have said to me that we have just elected the Anti-Christ President. Did we? I guess we will all find out soon enough, but my first thought is would the anti-Christ be a father? I don't know.
So I got to thinking... Where are his parents? At least we always knew who Bush's parents were.

I knew so little about this man because honestly, I was indifferent but now I have to wake up and smell the coffee because this man will be our nations leader and I have to take notice.

I read his biography and Obama's parents are dead and he is just 47. Grandma who raised him died just the other day so basically there are no links to his past that are alive.

I am about to turn 47 and my parents are both deceased, but my mind keeps swirling with trippy thoughts of this man who will head our government but we know so little about.

Steve and I were talking about it and for our family, these election results make us sad, we wonder if our eyes are open and others eyes are clouded. Logically, I can see no reason for this man to be qualified to be President and yet, he is and we as Americans must support him, on his terms. We are not allowed to criticize him, we are not allowed to discuss his background or race, we can't discuss his wife or children, and most of all we are not to mock him under any circumstances.

I hope this will be a wake-up call to lukewarm Christians everywhere, what if we have just set in motion the end of our society? I thought we had more time but who knows maybe we don't. It is time to choose Jesus as your savior, not just say I believe in God, because the word God is getting misinterpreted to incorporate a spiritual embracing of other faiths. Jesus Christ is the way, the truth, and the light.

Pray and fast for our nation.
