My Sister's Eyes

I was having a good ole' time on my photo program last night and made these photos below of my sister's eyes. The three of them get a lot of attention. She purchased her eyes over 15 years ago! Yes you heard me right, purchased. They have been together 1/2 her life. Each has a personality of their own. As you can see, they are sultry, mischievous, surprised...

God Is Not Enough..?

I read a Blog posting today that was titled "God is not enough"and I was startled, this is so contrary to what I have always believed and been told, so I decided to read the blog and understand where the writer was coming from...

She noted that in Genesis, before God created the women, it was just Him and Adam. They communicated, decided things... But God wasn't enough.

He created women as a friend, helpmate. He knew that man needed someone else of their own kind to make it. "It is not good for man to be alone."

Without human contact we cannot be what God has planned for us to be. We wouldn't be able to function correctly.

In our own "little minds" we believe that we need someone else, God is not enough. He is enough. He can be whatever we want him and need him to be, but He is such an awesome God that he knows and cares how we feel. He knows we feel like we need more, this is why (I believe) he made a friend and helpmate for Adam. It was a gift, a way of coping in this earthly vessel.

I am thankful for my friends and family that help me to function the way God has made me too.

My Posse

There are few people that I like to spend time with. I am not very sociable. It is true and I know it. I would rather be in my own world and slip out unnoticed. In the day and age we live in, it's so easy to do just that. No need to talk on the phone or face to face... we have email to communicate, cell phone to text... what more do we need? Yes that would be nice, just to communicate by email...
I said all that to say this, there are a few people I like to be around. Below are a few that are near a dear to this heart =)

From left to right - Catherine, Eileen, Sonia, & Myself.

I can guarantee a fun time when I am with these three. We usually like the same things, sometimes we disagree, but that just keeps us on our toes. You cannot say we are boring that's for sure!

My sister and I tend to do everything together, sometimes we like it, sometimes we don't. We have pretty much everything in common, so it's easy to go the same place and not give up what the other wants to really be doing =).

Valentine's Day Photos

I took some photos from a Valentine bouquet that we had at our house... Something so small and insignificant makes you wonder why God would take so much time and detail a mere flower with a lifespan so short.

It's Stuffy In Here


Yes, It's very stuffy in here. Here at work. The building cannot decide whether it's hot or cold! Come on!

I am wasting my time talking to ignorant people at jobs where they should not be working. Come on! This is beyond annoying!

Breathe in, Breathe out, Breathe in, Breathe out... I am on the verge of flying to who knows where and telling this idiot that works for Toys R' Us what up!! Yes this is my plan. I will tell his superiors that he is a small brained procrastinator that is in the process of jeopardizing this company of serious fines! ARGH!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA! That's all I can do... or else I will cry for no reason, but out of frustration.

eBayness


I am an avid eBayer. I don't do it as often as I used too, even though I love doing it. It takes a lot of time and energy, but there's something about watching your items go up in price. Like they say, "Ones junk is anothers treasure.". This is so true for eBayers.

I have furthered my knowledge in the items I sell. I know everything about them. I read up on the styles, lines, cuts, fabrics, colors, sizes. I sell men's clothing and neck ties. I have one account for the Men items and one account for my personal items. I solely purchase things on a personal account so that I have a professional account that is private and designated for sales.

eBay can be just as addictive as gambling. Once you are bidding, you want to win. Good for sellers, bad for the bidder.

eBay has been around for so long and is such a massive community. I don't understand why people don't put it to use. Even just an item that you purchased and cannot return to the store, or maybe you just need some money for a bill or your car payment, sell something on eBay. Simple as that.

Happy Belated Valentines Day


Year Round Valentine

I love you all through February,Not just on Valentine’s Day;I cherish you when flowers of springAppear in the midst of May.

I adore you in the summer,When the air is filled with heat;Without you in my life each day,I wouldn’t be complete.

I treasure you in fall,When leaves are turning gold;I loved you when you were younger;I’ll love you when you’re old.

I prize you in the winter,When colder days are here;I love you, love you all the time,Every minute of the year.

So I’ll give to you this Valentine,But I want to let you know,It’s not just today, but always,That I will love you so.

Six Weird Things About Me

I read Deeanne Gist's blog a few times a week. She was tagged to write six weird things about herself.... Here are mine.

1. Once in a while I can hear an everyday word such as, score, trip, bell, and not understand it. It will take me a few minutes and a lot of explaining until it triggers it my mind.

2. I can't keep my shoes on in the house. The minute I step in they come off, that's not the only place though, I take them off when I am teaching at church, and when I am at my desk at work. Right now I have one off and one on... hahaha

3. I get scared when watching the movie, "The Ghost and Mr. Chicken".

4. I used to not think to look mirrors, other women look in the bathroom mirrors or mirrors passing by, not me, I didn't pay attention... that has changed though, I remind myself to make sure and look hahaha
5. I used to dream that I was the daughter of Fran Drescher and Kevin Costner LOL!
6. I have to nurse a drink every morning. If I don't it's like not changing your underwear or showering before work, your miserable all day.

Love


I read this in a friends blog...

"Don't frown because you never know who is falling in love with your smile"

"When it comes to falling in love ... Do not chase, Do not obsess, Don't try to hard, just let it be, and be yourself."

"To the world you may just be somebody ... but to somebody, you may be the world."

"The people you love the most, hurt you most"

"If music be the food of love, play on"

"God can heal a broken heart, but He has to have all the pieces"

"To love someone is to learn the song that's in their heart and sing it to them when they have forgotten"

"Love is giving someone the power to break your heart, but trusting that they won't."

"Tears are the safety valve of the heart when too much pressure is laid on it"

"Just because someone doesn’t love you the way you want them to, doesn’t mean they don’t love you with all they have"

"Being deeply loved by someone gives you stregnth; loving someone deeply gives you courage."

"You don't marry someone you can live with - you marry the person who you cannot live without."

"You don't love a woman because she is beautiful, she is beautiful because you love her"

"Meeting you was fate, becoming your friend was a choice, but falling in love with you was beyond my control."
