Hello... This is she... FRIKIN AWSOME!!!

ok typing this for the second time.....grrr
As some of you know I live in a very small town and wal-mart is the place to be. There isn't much to do around here and the closest michaels is about 50 minutes away. It was a trip that I always hated becuase that is enough time to kill anyones creative drive. I didn't get to make it much as it was and with the gas prices rising it seemed like they were going to be few and far between. Until one magical day when all my dreams came true. I guess that my town decided to grow up and get some good stores so we got a tjmax, a pet smart, a shoe store, a bed bath and beyond, and tucked away in the center of those was a Michaels. I almost screamed out loud in excitement... ok so I did scream out loud. I was frikin excited. The day of the grand opening I wasn't going to make it because I was taking care of my grandmother and my upline Sara Frawley decides to tell me that they are having a drawing for gift cards and a cricut machine. Well pooh. I wasn't going to make it. Even if I dropped everything right then and there, it just wasn't going to happon. BUT a thought crossed my mind. My husband was. he would be driving right by the store at anytime now and unknowling be missing the oportunity of my life (sad huh) so I figured I would try to get a hold of him. Well my conversation was anything but uplifing with him. He said that he wasn't going into woman land to spin a "wheel o' fun" ( I don't know why he called it that. you spun the wheel and got a free prize) But he was totally unwilling to go into that store and fill out this dinky little peice of paper for me. I was so mad. and it wasn't becuase my chances were thrown out the window but because he was being dumb and I don't like it when people are dumb. so I pouted and whined and then said fine I didn't want you to go anyway but if you do decide to go I would greatly appricate it... and a you don't love me in there somewhere... I was really putting on the guilt.... well it's never worked before but this time it did... YEAH!!! and boy am I glad I got a call today saying that I won the $50 gift card. Which to me was great. I won something and I never ever get to buy myself anything. So I was happy. and then my upline gave me a 50% and a 20% off coupon.. so I was really excited and here is what I got. After going to the store 3 times to decide what I really truly wanted. There was just so much and to have this $50 was like amazing to me. so here they are!!

Journey to Skinny

ok so I have ventured out on a new and inspiring journey. It wasn't at first but after today I'm speechless for the amount of motivation and inspiration I have star weight watchers. My mom offerd to pay for it. So I figured WHY NOT!?! It's an opportunity to lose weight. I'll take it. So I started last thursdy and went today for my weigh in. I wasn't really feeling up to it. I was anxious and excited at the same time. I felt that I didn't do very well and would have to go tell my mom that I gained weiht and didn't lose any. So I stood in a line of about 30 people and waited for my turn to arrive. Almost there. nerves start kicking in.. I gotta pee..(sorry for the blunt term). So I run to the bathroom pee. There is still about 7 people in front of me.. I wait somemore. My turn arrives and not a moment to soon. I go and give the lady my information sign in.. Take my shoes off. Empty the change and bills and phone and keys and paper and whatever else I could find from my pockets If I could have found pocket lint I would have removed that also. I step on the scale. Close my eyes and peek at what she is writing down... 189.8... OMGOSH.. I lost 5.4 lbs in one week. And It's not like I I weigh that much and you can tell. I have very muscular legs and even when I wore I size 6 I weighed 160. Sooo.... I just want to get down to a size 8 and I'll be happy Right now I am a 14-16 depending on the brand of clothes. So anyway I'll keep you faithful readers updated. Don't forget
HAVE A BLESSED DAY FILLED WITH GOD GIVEN MOMENTS!!

10 things about me you didn't know

1) I love being outside. Something about being in nature and the smells of the air and the feel of the grass between my toes (I love to be barefoot outside). It brings back memories, flashbacks, and things long forgotton. My childhood went by fast so these memories are things that I stop close my eyes and cherish for the moment and then tuck them away until they come again. My children have taken after that. If they had it their way they would be outside rain or shine, cold or hot, day or night.

2) I am extreamly insecure. I come off like I have all the confidence in the world but when you get down to it. I am always seeking approval and I really do care what people thing about me. I get scared and upset if somebody doesn't like me and I find reason to cause a problem if they do. I try to be nice and accepting of others when really I unknowingly search for flaws that people have to make myself feel better. (don't get me wrong, I never speak to people about what I think their flaws are I keep them to myself for my own self uplifting) It is a struggle that I work on.

3) I am a Christian. I am not perfect. I try to do what God tells us to do and I try to be a good influance. I go to church every sunday but I must admit I don't know if I would if my husband weren't the worship leader. He supports me and gets me up to go. But sometimes I just don't really want to. I have only missed church 3 times in the last 3 years 1 I was sick and 2 I was on a trip with the church.

4) I am poor but I don't mind. Not that it matters but for some reason people think that my husband and I have loads of money and that is why I am a stay at home mom. False. We are so poor we are in the poverty lines according to our government. We live paycheck to paycheck and I don't see that changing unless God blesses us. We live in a small 2 bedroom apartment and our children share a room. People call us for money all the time. But I don't mind. The way I see it we are in this situation for a reason. This is right where God wants us to be. If he has better things planned then the opportunitys will present themselves so we can make choices. I have roof, a car, a tv, a computer, I go to school and I am 23. I think I'm doing pretty good.

5) I love my children... We all do but Myla just makes my day interesting she's the hyper pay attention to me one. and my son... Well... I was really upset when I found out I was going to have a boy. I didn't want one. but it wasn't my choice. and He just melts my heart. I was just laying him down for his nap and everyonce in a while he'll want me to lay down with him so I did and he rubbed my back while I hummed to him... They way he likes it. Mr. Independant. If I were to rub his back he'd get upset. and He doesn't hum. My daughter is still awake by the way like I said the hyper one. But she lights up my life and makes every day an adventure.

6) I am a student. I may never work but I go to school. Why? you ask. Because I will not be a wife that stays at home and gets no foundation. You never know what the day may hold. You never know if your going to get a phone call saying that "there's been an accident" and then be a single mom with kids and no education so you have to get some job that doesn't pay much and struggle for the rest of your life.
I am not that stay at home mom. I will be prepared for anything.

7)I am trying to lose weight. I weigh too much. I didn't use to but after having my kids I guess I just packed on the pounds. I start weight watchers today... The way I see it is at least I'm not fat and sitting around being fat I'm fat trying to do something about it. I go to the gym everyother day but that doesn't seem to help so maybe this plan will work.

8) I love music. I sing I dance I play the piano I act I everything. I'm not the best but I'm good at it. I sometimes feel that I don't get to express myself like I want to and that other people are more concerned about themselves and they do everything (especially at church) I am only allowed to do drama while others do EVERYTHING. it has become the (people's name) show. I'm not mean enought to write names on here but I feel that way sometimes. I feel that it should all be done for God and that everyone should be allowed to do things not just certain people.

9) I love to make cards and scrapbook. I am a stampin up demonstrator( actually I'm pending this month so if anyone wants to generouslly buy something from me let me know) :) It is kind of my outlet my children do it will me well my daughter does my son just gets in the way. I am hoping to have more time when this semester is over because I will be done with school for a while. I'll have my associate's degree.

10) Last but no least. I am still searching for the real me. I lost myself sometime ago and I am trying to find things that I like again without getting other peoples opinions and without people telling me that it is dumb or stupid. I used to be influanced by what other people thought but I am working on that and that is one of my greatest struggles.

My Litte Fairy!

My little girl won the Little Miss Leprechaun Pagent in Emerald Isle at the St. Patricks Day Festival on Saturday. I was so excited for her she was so happy. She got up there and sang her song and batted her eyes and totally flirted with the host (Gary Dean) who is our CBS local news anchor. Don't get the wrong idea she didn't even know that it was a compition. I told her that it was all for fun. I really thought that she would get up there on that stage and start crying. So as you can imagine when she got up there and did her thing, I was so proud!! Couldn't be prouder. AND to make things better I made her dress. I've never made anything and I made her a pretty little fairy dress all green and sparkly. so I'm just pretty gosh darn proud of my daughter and my sewing skills!!

Myla's card.

Ok so my camera on my phone isn't the greatest and I tried to make it better and I don't know what exactly happoned. BUT ANYWAY Myla got happy mail about 2 days ago. I just haven't been able to post anything latley due to trying to get back on schedule. BUt you should have seen her face!!! SHe was so excited when I told her she got a letter. It was almost like she didn't believe me! It is a beautiful card with hearts and polkadots and on the inside there is a bag of flowers which I'm not sure if they were supposed to come out or not but Myla decided that they were for her tea party decorations. Thank you so much Jane for this beautiful card. I will post more pics of it later when I steal my mother in laws camera again.. :P

Have a blessed day with God given moments!!!!!!

MOON, PRISIM, POWER!!!!!!!!

HAHAHA sorry... So I thought that I could change the order of my playlist to fit my myspace page (yes I have one) And I was making a point to my DH that I like animation. It's nothing that I obsess about but growing up I watched sailor moon I love it. I can't help it. I know I am a dork but I am only 23 and I am allowed to have those kind of things in my life. So I did my whole myspace page in Sailor Moon get-up and I didn't realized that It would change the song on here. I don't have time to fix it now gotta get ready for the rest of the day. But I just clicked on here to see something and laughed so hard I almost died. Now the rest of the world knows what a geek I am. And for those of you in SBS11 I warned you with my tagg. I'm a nerd. Anyway. Have a blessed day filled with God given moments!
