Facebook Addict

Katrina stands up slowly & says....My name is Katrina & I am a Facebook addict. Then she bows head in shame. While the whole time sitting next to all her friends at the same meetings.

AN UPDATE TO THE NOTE:

AN UPDATE TO THE NOTE:
Dear Mrs. Jones, I wish to clarify that I am not now, nor have I ever been, an exotic dancer. I work at Home Depot and I told my daughter how hectic it was last week before the blizzard hit. I told her we sold out every single shovel we had, and then I found one more in the back room, and that several people were fighting over who would get it.

Her picture doesn't show me dancing around a pole.
It's supposed to depict me selling the last snow shovel we had at Home Depot.From now on I will remember to check her homework more thoroughly before she turns it in.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Smith

Always Check your childs homework from my December post

SHEKNOWS Baby Name Meanings

I thought I would give this one a try. I don't beleive in this sort of thing. It reminds me of Fortune Tellers. Only the Lord knows how He will have your life go but it was fun to see if it matched me. This one I hope does. It sort of sounds like me.

"People with this name tend to be idealistic, highly immaginative, intuitive, and spiritual. They seek after spiritual truth and often find it. They tend to be visionary and may inspire others. If they fail to develop their potential, they may become dreamers, or misuse power."

I Believe...

A Birth Certificate shows that we were born
A Death Certificate shows that we died
Pictures show that we lived!

Have a seat . . . Relax . . . And read this slowly.

I Believe...

That just because two people argue,
It doesn't mean they don't love each other. And just because they don't argue,

It doesn't mean they do love each other.
I Believe...

That we don't have to change friends if we understand that friends change.
I Believe....

That no matter how good a friend is, they're going to hurt you every

once in a while and you must forgive them for that.
I Believe...

That true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance.
Same goes for true love.
I Believe...

That you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life..
I Believe...

I Believe...

That you should always leave loved ones with loving words.

It may be the last time you see them..

I Believe...

That heroes are the people who do what has to be done when

it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.
I Believe...

That money is a lousy way of keeping score.
I Believe...

I Believe...

That sometimes the people you expect to kick you when

you're down, will be the ones to help you get back up.
I Believe...

That sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry,

But that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.
I Believe...

That maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've

had and what you've learned from them and less to do with

how many birthdays you've celebrated.
I Believe...

That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.
I Believe...

That no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief. I Believe...

That our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are,

But we are responsible for who we become.
I Believe...

That you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret. It could change your life forever.
I Believe...

Two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different. I Believe...

That your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don't even know you.
I Believe...

That even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you - you will find the strength to help.
I Believe...

That credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being.
I Believe...

That the people you care about most in life are taken from you too soon.

'The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;

They just make the most of everything.

Thank you God for all the wonderful people who help us throughout the

journey of life...
May Angels guard you and guide you .

Here is what my sister has in her front yard in Northern Indiana

So wierd

As I was typing another post this came through my e-mail from a friend. She has not even seen my blog post.
This is how it starts out.....

No matter how much we complain in life we are truly blessed by GOD!
Remember all that the Lord has done for you! Have a blessed day!

Wow... is that not a God Stop Moment?

What a blessed life I have!

On my way dropping off the boys for school this morning I always listen to my favorite local radio station. Wizard 106 from Tupelo, MS. For the last couple of weeks they have been giving away tickets for the Brad Paisley concert in Southhaven. My daughter has been listening to every give away trying her best to win tickets.
They ask the question....You may know Ricardo Montalban from his Fantasy Island role but what was his character name in his Star Trek role? He also played in a couple of movies of Star Trek. I can't beleive I even remembered the name of the movie. I threw that in but that didn't get me anything extra.
Well get to the point already!
I won 2 tickets to the concert in SouthHaven along with his CD.
The answer was Khan & it was Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan movie.
I am no Treky but I did pretty good. I immediately called Alicia to see if she was listening for tickets. She said yes but time has passed & they are about to announce the winner. I told her to turn the radio back up! She said but they already did it. I repeated turn the radio back up! All of a sudden a lady came on that called & her answer was Darth Vader. WRONG. Then my sweet (cough cough) strong southern accent came on. I had the answer. I am still in shock I won. Well Alicia said have fun but I told her I wasn't going. I was giving the tickets to her. She was so excited. They are getting ready to leave as I type. Have fun.
Now if that had of been Rod Stewart or Toby Keith or Trace Adkins I would not have given those tickets to my own mommy.

40 Tips For A Better Life - 2009

I am so sorry I have not posted in a bit. I will have a post in the next day or so. I will explain.
Here is something to get you by until then. A high school friend of mine I had gotten back in touch with awhile back sent me this.Thanks Selena for the real things we can do.

1. Take a 10-30 minute walk every day. And while you walk, smile.
It is the ultimate anti-depressant.
2. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day.
3. Buy a DVR and tape your late night shows and get more sleep.
4. When you wake up in the morning complete the following statement,
'My purpose is to __________ today.'
5. Live with the 3 E's -- Energy, Enthusiasm, and Empathy.
6. Play more games and read more books than you did in 2008.
7. Make time to practice meditation and prayer.
They provide us with daily fuel for our busy lives.
8. Spend time with people over the age of 70 and under the age of 6.
9. Dream more while you are awake.
10. Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less food that is manufactured IN plants.
11. Drink green tea and plenty of water. Eat blueberries, wild Alaskan salmon, broccoli, almonds, & walnuts.
12. Try to make at least three people smile each day.
13. Clear clutter from your house, your car, your desk, and let new and flowing energy into your life.
14. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip, OR issues of the past, negative thoughts, or things you cannot control. Instead, invest your energy in the positive present moment.
15. Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn. Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class, but the lessons you learn will last a l ifetime.
16. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a college kid with a maxed out charge card.
17. Smile and laugh more. It will keep the NEGATIVE BLUES away.
18. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.
19. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.
20. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
21. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
22. Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present.
23. Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
24. No one is in charge of your happiness except you.
25. Frame every so-called disaster with these words: 'In five years, will this matter?'
26. Forgive everyone for everything.
27. What other people think of you is none of your business.
28. REMEMBER, GOD heals everything.
29. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.
30. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch.
31. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful, or joyful .
32. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
33. The best is yet to come.
34. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up, and show up.
35. Do the right thing!
36. Call your family often. (Or e-mail them to death!)
37. Each night before you go to bed, complete the following statements:
I am thankful for __________. Today I accomplished _________.
38. Remember that you are too blessed to be stressed.
39. Enjoy the ride. Remember this is not Disney World and you certainly don't want a fast pass. You only have one ride through life, so make the most of it and enjoy the ride.
40. Share this with those you care about. I just did.

May your troubles be less, May your blessings be more, May nothing but happiness come through your door!
