25 Random things about me....

Well one of my favorite craft blogs (Gleeful things)posted a post on 25 random things about herself so I thought I would give it a whirl myself.

1. I have been married for 19.5 years. Just seeing that number amazes me.

2. I have 7 wonderful children. I feel so much joy when they are all in the same room laughing and talking

3. I love photography and pictures.

4. I love caramel

5. I love coffee, but my beloved calls it dulce de coffee-- because I love lots of cream and sugar. It has to look like caramel or it's not right :)

6. I hate the feel of fleece. I hate touching it.. I can't even explain how weird it feels to me

7. I hate practical jokes... I don't find people purposely doing things to me as funny

8. I have a very low self esteem. I see a very ugly person with terrible hair in the mirror. My beloved makes me feel gorgeous no matter what.

9. I have no idea how to decorate. I love the way women decorate their homes but I have no idea how to do it.

10. I love to paint, house, furniture or whatever but I am not any good at it. When I tell my beloved I am going to paint he quickly takes over

11. I hate mouthy, disrespectful children.

12. I hate garage sales. Another man's junk is another man's treasure. I never find treasure.

13. I hate shopping.. Unless it is in a craft store.

14. I have a hard time with written directions unless it is driving directions. So I learn really well by watching so when I want to learn a new craft I google it:)

15. I love to cook.if given a recipe I never follow it completely. I tend to change it.

16. I can't bake. I am not very good at it. I follow recipes and am scared to be too creative with it as I am with cooking.

17. I love homemade bread.. I am not successful making it. It never wants to rise:(

18. I absolutely hate the dentist. The thought of their tools make me cringe! Though I know they are a necessity.

19. I am totally fascinated with fixing cars. I would love to take a class or to on how to fix and engine :)

20. I am a techno nut. I love the latest and greatest techie things. (iPad, computers, phones etc)


21. I love to talk.. I wonder if it is because I don't remember doing alot of it as a kid.( I sucked my thumb so that was always in my mouth)


22. I love seafood!

23. I love to go to the tanning bed.. I love the warmth, and the 15 minutes of solitude I get!

24. I cherish my relationship with my girl. She is so dear to my heart. I reflect on what my life will be like when she gets married :(

25. Most important thing about me is-- I am follower of the Lord Jesus Christ. I was saved at 22 years old and have been trying to live my life to bring glory to His name...

BFS #124 - The Easy Button

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Goodbye Facebook...Hello thoughts...

Well I did... I took the plunge and deactivated my facebook. It is amazing how much of a time consumer it is. It eats time like you would not believe. I am hoping, praying with this new found time, and lack of distraction that it will give me motivation to blog more. As my young men get older, move closer and closer in considering that step towards becoming one with someone.. I have come to realize there are so many resources out there pointed at men and what they need to do, or what they need to be as men to get married. The sad thing is there is hardly anything for young women. Today I challenge Paul to look at a questionaire done by Stacey and James McDonald( you can find it on Staceys  blog thesacredcalling.com)  that they put together for young suitors for their daughters. After reading it he came down so heavy hearted. Guess the realization of the spiritual, emotional and physical responsibilities of it all became very burdensome. Of course I shared how we could do noth...

Saying "I love you"...

Thinking about these words. These words that are to express our deepest emotions. These words that are to leave us vunerable and open, just do not seem to have the impact they use to. Many people use these words so fleeting. They use them as if to say "thank you", or "I thought about you today". For me "I love you" is not an easy thing to say. If I say I love you- I mean it from way down deep in my heart. They are not just words to be said but also words, that are to be put into action. Have you ever thought about that? When someone says "I love you", do they show through their actions that they love you?  or do they leave you going Huh, really? I have had those thoughts, wondering if the person who has declared their love really does love me because actions speak louder than words to me. I hear their words but then on the other hand see their actions and  they do not act like a person who even cares about my well being. Jesus never states in the...
