I couldn't stand those colors anymore. Toooo dark, to shady. ew. Had to be done with it.
Had a chocolate malt shake with reeses peanut butter cups from Sonic. I had eaten pretty well and I read Rachel's post about a milk shake *grrr* so then I wanted one. Now I am REALLY full. Tonight will have to eat really healthy and exercise longer so I don't go over my points.
Speaking of tonight, AMERICAN IDOL! YESSSS
I am totally bummed that they kicked my girl off, but her performance wasn't to great. Not the worst, but not great. The worse came from the big lipped girl who got kicked off too. She was bad. They kicked patrick off to, he has a great voice but that performance was iffy. I really want Taylor or Mandisa or the last girl that sang to win. They rockkkkk! The rocker guy is grreat too! I do NOT like the pretty boy (or atleast thinks he is) that sang the G.M. Song. He thinks he's to hot to trot. *conceited* Sway is good too, and seems down to earth! I like paris, but she seems to be getting more and more convinced of herself. Maybe not! Maybe its just me.
I miss Wen's bebe *stomps and screams, "I want I want"* Then again, my mom says it changes your whole life. Maybe I don't want. I need one to borrow for a night and see what its like.
I feel MUCH better today, PTL! I had been asking all these people to pray for me, when I realized I hadn't even prayed for myself. So I did, now I am better.
Had a battle with my mind last night too. But I won thanks to the Lord.
Good thought for the day~ God WILL answer my prayers...some day! I just gotta hold on!

Convention and more.
Convention was GRREAT! I had a great time! The Spirit of the Lord was there and I could sooo feel Him! It was great to feel it that way. There was a Message and Interpretation as well that said He loved us and He was healing. It was great! God loves ME! He loves THE Church of God and HIS personal Hand is upon her, it was so great and comforting. Amidst all the things surrounding us right now, God told us He loves US! AMEN!
Emily and I sang, I think it went fairly well. I couldn't tell because I couldn't really hear anything but the music. Brother Lester is such a nice guy that is more than just "please move your cars" hes got heart and loves TCOG with all his heart, I appreciate it.
I got to hold da baby! Woohoo, he even liked me I think. Me n Ben, Ben n Me, we cool now. I think he's cute and makes me want my own, Damon says no *sigh*. It was so funny, I asked Josh Yohe if he wanted to hold Ben and he was kinda freakin and said well let me sit down. He did good for a little bit, it was very sweet cus he was so scared yet in aww. Then Ben started crying and Josh looked at me like take him I'm messin up! So I took the baby and then Chandler said you broke him to Josh. Josh asked me later if he had really hurt him, I was like dude nooooo. Chill. I told sister Laura she said I should have come got her so she could see!
Well, pray for me, I am having stomach problems. Came into work today with pretty severe stomach pains. Ugh...
That all for now! Bye

clean car. short post.
Well...to be honest I am not in much of a blogging mood today. It's really slow here at work. I am kind of sleepy and tonight when I get home I am going to atleast START cleaning my car. You wouldn't know I had bought it brand new if you looked at it now. It's so nasty. To top it all off the dog puked in my driver's seat. *sigh*
Well talk to you all later.
Good thought for the day~ Smile...it burns more calories then a frown.

New boss
Not much to post about today. Getting a new boss here at work, they are basically transfering or trading my boss to the location that my new boss is coming from. The company feels they possess strengths that are better suited for the other warehouse and vice versa. Gonna be kind of weird. I have had the same boss for almost two years. Pray for me that I am a good Christian witness.
I am starting to get a headache. I am just weary. I feel asleep so fast last night once I laid down that I don't even remember Damon coming to bed. I didn't excercise last night, so I guess I took it as my one day off this week. Will need to get back on the train tonight though. I find if I miss a day I start getting lax on it and almost have to MAKE myself go exercise. Once I start I am fine.
Had a good devotional this morning. It was quick as I woke up late and took a shower which means I don't have much time to get ready before I have to leave. But its quality not quantity.
I am reading a book now called the Five Languages of Love, I would like to post a quote here that I think is really good."Our dreams before marriage are of marital bliss: 'We are going to make each other supremely happy. Other couples may argue and fight, but not us. We love each other.' Of course, we are not totally naive. We know intellectually that we will eventually have differences. But we are certain that we will discuss those differeneces openly; one of us will always be willing to make concessions and we will reach agreement. It's hard to believe anything wese when you are in love.Welcome to the real world of marriage, where hairs are always on the sink and the little white spots cover the mirror, where arguments center on which way the toilet paper comes off and whether the lid should be up or down. It is a world where shoes do not walk to the closet and drawers do not close themselves, where coats do not like hangers and socks go AWOL during laundry. In this world, a look can hurt and a word can crush. Intimate lovers can become enemies, and marriage a battlefield."Marriage is so totally different for everyone, but I think one thing couples can all agree on is, Marriage is completely different from the picture they saw in their mind. And, that is an adjustment. A big one. You may argue, you may not. You have all bliss, you may have rough times. Whatever the case, marriage is about loving and holding on for the long haul. Love, the blissful in love experience that is completely euphoric and all you do is think about this person all day long, that love fades. It is an obsession. But the true love, deep running through the veins of your very soul, is birthed through this initial euphoric experience. It is through this first experience of "falling in love" that you learn how much you really care about this person. You are willing to lay down your life for them, to take the very heart from your chest for them. The deep love is not tested until the euphoric love has passed. It is then that your love takes deep root and even though the euphoria is gone, the love you now share is better than you ever could have imagined and stronger than before. Saying this, things still happen that hurt. Actions take place that make you think, "what was I thinking!" when you said in your heart my love (spouse) is perfect! It is in this time, you learn to grow to flourish and love like you have never loved before. Love is more than an emotion, it is an act of total being. It encompasses your life, your physical being, your soul. It's worthing finding and holding onto. The key is, not forgetting love when the pain is all you can see. Love is not the victim, it's the cause. The cause for all good to carry on even through the muckiest times of life.
Good thought for the day: "Be still and know that I am God Psalm 46:10"

new colors
Ok, I ditched the wedding colors. Mainly because though in theory it's a good idea with great meaning. I didn't want a chincy looking blog. Ha...you all may think that now. But I changed it anyway, and hope it looks chincy-less.
First topic of the day...COMMENTING! There hasn't been much. *sigh* *cry* *whine* You KNOW how I need to know you people are reading. Or are you *enter twilight zone music*
Ok...now as of last night Damon is NOT buying another old truck *wipes brow*. Hey...I am getting really good at this *text here* thing. We went to look at a 77 Ford short bed that he wanted to use for parts. Said he wouldn't buy it unless it started. Did not start, enter napoleon voice "yesssssssss!" I only wanted him to buty it if he could fix it up a little and then sell it for atleast double!
And since we had to hurry to see the truck, he didn't want to wait for me to cook. So, we at at checkers. I don't know if its the fact I have been trying (operative word there) to eat healthier, but that greasy fast food just did NOT set well with me and the fact I bit into something hard in the meat *shivers* GAG. Made eggs this morning, with cheese even and it did not seem to appetize me, so I gave it to the dog. Weird.

Poor little guy.
Tonight is American Idol. YESSSS!
Ponders what to make for dinner, talking to Erika, she said she's thinking about meatloaf. MMMMMM meatloaf sound good. YUM *stealing idea*
Anyone out there? Wendy? Hello? Blog world officially BORING.
*Good thought for the day* Don't let the Arms that catch you, catch you by surprise.

A work in Progress
If you have noticed...my anniversary is coming soon. I changed the colors to those of my wedding. Navy blue and pale yellow. It is a work in progress and am not done making it "pretty" just ran out of time. Anyway. Hope it looks good!

Monday
Well, again it is monday! The way I figure it, I have lived through 1,198 Mondays in my life. Church was cancelled for Sunday. As I am sure you all know who have read megans blog. Growing up I missed several Sunday service due to rodeo and so on. But since coming to TCoG I have rarely missed. It was odd having Sunday open, but it really didn't add anythign more to my weekend. To be honest it just made it go faster.
Saturday was snow, YAY! Real snow, like snow man makeable, snow ball throwable, sledding fun, SNOW. We went sledding saturday NIGHT after Damon got home. All the boys and Damon and I. We had a lot of fun. Then Sunday, we went sledding again. Went to a location where there was already a group of kids and a mom there. She told me, watch out for the fence I already hit it. HAHA...did I listen, noooo. I jumped on the sled face first and man I was flying, whooooa fence aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. BAM! Not only did I hit the fence which was chain link. My face hit the fence, and continued to grind across the fence. I really thought I tore my face open the way I hit and how long I kept sliding along the chain link. I laid there for a minute, then got up. Immediate headache I think. No blood, but now I have a red welt on my cheek. It's about a half in puffier than the other side and my eyeball really hurt for awhile. But hey, it was fun. My whole body is sore and through two jackets I still manage to tear my elbow up on the fence, but again, FUN!
Friday night we went to applebees and sat first available which ended up being the smoking section (blech) then we waited like 10mins and still no one had even gotten our drinks! Finally I stopped someone, she said the girl that was sposed to be handling us was new but she would take us. Food was pretty good. Then we went home I think, oh that was after picking up the White's car so Damon can fix it.
Saturday I woke up around 10ish, which is really late for me. I had awful sleep, again. Cleaned the house really good then went to nada's and took her an egg salad sandwich for lunch. Then ran to the store for her. Then the boys came down to her house, then we went back to our house and played monopoly, then sledding. Then I finally made them my buffalo chicken that they always seem to want. Get the call no church, so we didnt seem to worry about the time, least I didn't and stayed up a little later. Another fitful night of sleep! Woke up at 6:52 on Sunday morning, WHEN I DIDN'T have to *sigh* went to Krispy Kremes then Nadas, then Yvonnes, then Sledding, then Las Palmas, then shopping, then....home. Then Judy took us to Cracker Barrel last night. That was my weekend.
Today, well today is rough. I really just want to go home. I am such a weirdo. I want to be like Gracie, miss happy. Lately it just seems one thing after another. Is it me, I should be smiles throughout it all. Depressed
*good thought for the day* let go and let go again, then let God

Pray for Me Today
Please pray for me today, I need it. I have been reading the "long" psalm, can u guess which chapter? 119, good guess. Anyhow, as I read through the Bible chapter by chapter I am now on 119, with it being so long I usually go through about 20-30 verses at a time. Surprisingly it is turning into such a blessing, one I have never dove into due to its length. But with such gems of encouragement and truth.
Do you ever feel like your apologizing a lot? I am tired of apologizing for stuff I didn't mean to do.
I have a lot on my plate right now, not as much as others, but MY plate is full for me. I have a lot on my mind. When I was little I wanted to grow up and now that I am grown I want to be little again, for the simple pleasure of it. NO worries. Do you ever look at your life and your daily situations and feel like you are in a maze and there is no way out! That is me today. I guess that is why I am into Ps 119 right now, to keep me tugging back to the Word of God and letting go of stuff. Cus for some reason, I can't seem to fix anything. So burdened right now under all these things. I just want to take a day off, eat something really bad all day long while watching the smurfs or something. Just a lazy happy day.
peace out
*good thought for the day* This to shall pass...

C'mon ride the train
American Idol Train that is!
Here are my top 12picks vocally~
1. Paris
2. Taylor
3. Patrick
4. Mandisa
5. David
6. Kelli
7. Will
8. Kevin
9. Jose
10. Bobby
11.Chris
12. Stevie
The last three on that list, I haven't seen (or don't remember seeing) but picked due to their attitudes which seemed to be good throughout their bios.
Now to the list of who I actually think will MAKE it. These lists differe because I think some are good for ratings, for example the girl with attitude "nightmare girl". She will be picked cus that will make ratings go up. Here I go~ no particular order
1 Jose
2 Ace
3 Becky
4 Bobby
5 Brenna
6 Kellie
7 David
8 Lisa
9 Patrick
10 Paris
11 Taylor
12 Mandisa
I think the winner will come down to:
Paris (great voice and likeable by girls and guys alike and you could take her home to mom AND grandma)
Taylor (mom and grandma are gonna love him, and he is so different and humble I think the more responsible generation in America will appreciate him)
Patrick (he will deliver a solid performance every time, he's flawless and he doesn't over do it, he just sangs it!)
Lisa (because she has that strong voice which is typical, yet again will deliver a solid performance and little teenage girls won't want to kill her out by not voting cus she's not ever the top gorgeous and making their boyfriends drool!)
Who I think will be voted out early and why:
Becky O'donahue...she is so pretty the girls will be catty about her and think she is a snob, even tho she has presented her self with respect and integrity and overall good attitude.
Brenna...people will get tired of her "hissy like attitude", course who knows?!
Jose...won't appeal to mass crowds in my opinion
Mid Season dismissals
Kellie...she's loveable but, unlike Carrie, I don't think she can hold her own with some of these people's vocals.
Mandisa...the black religious crowd, the chunkier people, and those who love a true hearted person will LOVE her. The people who want a star will boot her. She needs to be a gospel Diva.
The rest, will be dismissed here and there. Well, that is my predictions, haha, no that is just what I think. No psychic here *shivers*.
We'll see if I am right! Anybody else wanna give their thoughts on how the season will go?

title-less wonder
Hi everyone.
I am sooooo tired today for some reason. Ugh, I just feel drained. I went to bed late last night, but not like 2 in the morning or anything. I think it was around 11:00ish, cus I worked out until 10, then came and sat down with damon where we were "going" to watch our taped episode of A.I.. HOWEVER, he didn't get the VCR to work again...so I told him, from now on I am in charge of tapeing stuff :P
Last night was church, was good, and I led songs. I am fearful of leading songs here because we sing quite a few of them differently in Idaho as in comparison to here. I also don't like it cus I feel like people are looking at me. But, do the words instant in season and out of season ring a bell. I really want to get back to teaching. I love teaching S.S., and I reckon I need to get certified. Those are some of my best memories, was teaching at our little church in Nampa, ID. I finally had my own room, and we were told we could decorate how we wanted them! My room is STILL the best, cept I think I got high by accident when I was painting it. :( I was doing a sky scene with spray paint and they were having play practice or something (which I wasn't in) so I was trying to work and not disturb..soooo I closed my door and didn't have the window open either. Needless to say with brother Chuck checked on me, and I stepped down from the step stool....wooooh I was dizzy. Fumes big time buddy! I don't know what it's like to be high, PRAISE THE LORD, but if that's it...then I sure was. But, after I got it all done, I think my room looked pretty good if I do say so myself! :) Anyway...back to the topic, I want to teach again. I really do, I loved it. And, I want to work in the VLB dept. more.
My tire has been low for a few days, not really badly low just low. So I didn't even have the quarters to pay for air ( I bought a Frosty from wendys with all change, so I am out of change) so when we got home from church last night, Damon got his compressor out. He decided to find the cause of my tire leaking air. I had a nail, not just a small roofing nail, a monster hold the world together nail (not really, cus only God keeps this whole thing working) anyhoo, he plugged it and we had the air wrench going at 9:30 last night *waits for disturbing the peace citation*. I hope we didnt make the neighbors mad, but atleast my tire was fixed.
So, that was my night. I guess I am not intriguing like some people, but this is me!
By everyone.
*good thought for the day* Jesus loves you, more than you will ever know.

Welcome to the world Fiona!
This is Fiona Cathryn Broyles, born February 14th, 2006 at Build a Bear! Isn't she cute!
*apologizes for quality of pictures*
Stylin outfit!
Back of Stylin outfit!
OOOOOH! You just got mooned, yes she even got beary panties!
"Stop...take a look and listen...." Shes groovin and you know it. Don't hate her cus she's beautiful!
So that my friends was my valentines gift! Damon wouldn't tell me what he had planned, but we ended up going to olive garden. At five o clock there was a 55 minute wait and we waited about all 55 minutes of it. But once we sat down it was so nice. We got an appetizer which is a new fondu they have and it was sooooooooo yummy! mmmmmm *not going to think about the fat content* Then we got the breadsticks and salad...mmmmmmmmm again! Then for dinner (which by the time our entree was there we were pretty much full) Damon got his usual (he just can't break outa da box yo!) of spaghetti with meat sauce and I got some new item which was steak tips with balsamic vinagarette over the top on a bed of pasta with alfredo sauce and spinach. What I didnt know is that it came with blue cheese crumbles. EW! So I had to pick them off, but other than that SUPERB! We couldn't even finish our meals so we have lots of left overs which I will sooo be eating tonight. We skipped dessert since we were sooo full! Then (here is the corny part) we went home and put the food in the house, damon got his mini TV and we headed back out. We watched American Idol on the way to the next destination! Oh my goodness, we are weird. Anway...after AI we were at Opry Mills mall, which is where I met my baby bear! He took me to build a bear. I picked out my bear shape then we picked a sound box out that you can put inside. It says "i love you, I love you", then we got her stuffed and the lady had me get this little heart and rub it in my hands to get it warm, then kiss on both sides and make a wish. Then she put the heart inside and sewed Fiona up! After that we dressed her, and since she was my Valentine's Baby I wanted to remember that day with Love styled clothing! Hence I picked what you see above. Love shirt, with matching skirt, dorothy sparkle shoes, and even red satin undies! She is soooo cute! That was it for the night! He didn't get me a card or flowers or chocolate, but I think he did pretty good on the rest! The bear was expensive! I was like goood grief! I got him something awhile back but for yesterday (since he isn't much on reactions and unless its car parts he doesnt get super excited, I just got him a card with a special message I wrote, a box of sweet tart hearts, and a heart shaped box of snickers that you could write your own message on.
So that was my Valentine's extraveganza!

merry valentines
Merry Valentines to one and all, and to all a good ni....day!
It is the BIG day. That can be good or bad I spose' and for me it is finally good. Though I must say I went through my many share of lonely Valentine Days. *tear*
What are the plans for you all?
Damon says we are going out to dinner. I don't know what else. I want to go ice skating though, we'll see if that happens and if it does you can be sure I will report on it tomorrow. Unless....I am in the hospital, then you will have to wait haha. Seriously though, I hope he gets me something. I don't care if we eat out at mc donalds, just as long as he does something special for me. I tend to have caviare taste on a captain d's budget, so I need to stay away from stores. I will probably get him a card and something else that he would like. Hopefully anyway.
That's me with straightened hair and dark circles under my eyes. I look blah....
This is me and honey, taken in the dark with only the flash of my camera phone.
Scary
I miss you papaw... :(
Peace out yall.

I am back in action
Well...I don't know if you noticed, but I was not here on Friday. Damon went to Prison Ministry Thursday night and when he got home he complained his stomach was hurting and that he had been spitting up some "black stuff". (not to be gross) I took a look at what he was talking about and sho nuff, it was stomach junk. Around 1am I heard the bathroom door close, or saw it...one of the two and heard him chucking. Poor guy, he was in there for awhile. Said he felt better, well 3am rolled around and again he was back in there, at 5am ish the same thing. All in all 3 runs to the bathroom with puking. That wasn't all, but I won't go into "all" of it for the sake of not grossing you out any further than I already have. I called mom, she said take him to the ER so he wouldn't get dehydrated. I never got took to the ER for puking, so I thought no, I will just get him some pedialyte since he refused gatorade saying that was only good if you were hot *shakes head/rolls eyes* lol. Anyway, at 5:15am I was on my way to walmart with my hair in a pony tail, my gaucho pants, sandles, and my night gown tucked into the top of my pants and a jacket. I am sure I looked a sight! I got him grape pedialyte and pepto cherry chewables. And...nilla wafers and taco shells, but that was for later ;) Got home and made him take the pepto and drink the pedialyte, which surprisingly isn't that bad. Just tastes like watered down gatorade, you can almost taste the vitamins in it. Well...I called into work and explained I would be staying home to take care of him. I felt like a good wife I think haha. Put him back to bed, then I slept in. Got up and he hadn't puked anymore, we drove to pick fancy up to drop her off at detox (another story) then went and picked his check up. Then we went to walgreens to pick up the medicine the doctor gave him to relieve nausea and diarhea. While there, we got sprite, fruit in a can, and something else...anyway. He wanted jello, so i mixed the fruit in with the jello. Let is set and thats what he ate, and some applesauce. He must of liked it. He took it today as he is still feeling nauseated. He's sposed to go work at Tammy's tonight, and paint her bathroom and bedroom. But I don't want him to over work himself.
Oh saturday...his mamaw (the one who just lost papaw last week, feb 2) was rushed to ER. She has been missing papaw and nto eating. She has diabetes, so shes been not eating but still taking her pills which has dropped her sugar. I noticed she wasnt to good on friday night, so I called her son. Well...Andy had to break in saturday and have noah go through the window and unlock the door. She was close to a diabetic coma, her sugar had dropped to 24. It is not to get below 100. She was calling for papaw I heard. She started crying saying she was lonely, which if you knew mamaw you would know she wasnt acting normal. She is FEISTY and thats putting it nicely. Needless to say, spent most of day in ER then at her house. LONG weekend. Kasey tired :(
Because of Erika, Kasey depressed :)

I'm sure most of you have heard
About Colby Thompson and his death. He was so young, this would be like my nephew Michael dying. So much death lately. Only God knows the pain and sorrow.
Life is short
Death is sure
Sin is the cause
Christ is the Cure
Remember to pray for this family. It is so hard, and the emptiness is there Christian or not. Except when you have the Lord in you heart, He makes the pain bearable.
To drive around old hickory is sad to me now, because is reminds me of papaw. Damon said he and Andy picked up Papaw's ashes yesterday. Out of all the funeral home charges, the couldn't even put his ashes in a decent container. It was a cardboard or plastic box with tape keeping it closed and his name on top. Can you imagine. That is how fragile life is. One minute papaw is bringing joy to your life, the next he is reduced to ashes in a box. The soul never dies and I hope to see papaw in heaven some day.
I want to see my family.
ON a happier note, I am going through my 1953 cook book and plan to write down the recipes I want to try. I have a few in my head already.
I mailed the demo, will see what happens. And, Damon didn't think the pictures were all that great, he said they were basically ok or "fine". But that these companies want professionals doing the pictures.
Damon is going to the prison ministries tonight. He is painting Saturday and wants me to go with him. I am debating back and forth on going saturday. If I go, then that means my cleaning day will have to be changed to tonight. Which I dont know if I really want to do. On the other hand, some of the best memories I have as a newlywed are being with damon on these side jobs. Sounds weird, but it's true. I also have to make an order for Kasey's Konfections which is basically non existent anymore, tho during this time I can use the rest. Work has been really slow. I am happy for Meg, Brad and Rachel, but I am sorta bummed for me. We worked for the same temp company, I have been here almost two years and brad only 10 months and Rachel and Meg I am not sure of the time. It makes me think I must be doing somethign wrong to not be hired on when they were hired on so quickly. But these are two different companies who are making decisions. It is not up to the temp. service. Andy (my boss) says Goggin just isn't hiring anyone on right now. Maybe there's a reason I will know further down the road. I don't know. I need to be thankful for a job. But at the same time is it wrong to want a raise and benefits and so on. Like I said almost two years and only two raises of a total of 50cents. Should I ask for more, should I not. Life is stressful.
Pray for me. love to you all.

Texas Chili
A young cowboy walks into a seedy cafe in Gillett, Texas. He sits at the counter and notices an old cowboy with his arms folded staring blankly at a full bowl of chili. After fifteen minutes of just sitting there staring at it, the young cowboy bravely asks the old cowpoke, "If you ain't gonna eat that, mind if I do?" The older cowboy slowly turns his head toward the young wrangler and in his best cowboy manner says, "Nah, go ahead." Eagerly, the young cowboy reaches over and slides the bowl over to his Place and starts spooning it in with delight. He gets nearly down to the Bottom and notices a dead mouse in the chili. The sight was shocking and he immediately pukes up the chili into the bowl. The old cowboy quietly says, "Yep, that's as far as I got, too."

WOOHOO and PTL!
I got it taken care of everybody!!!!!!! YAY! did i mention....wooooooooohoooooooooooooooooooooooo
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!
So ummm...this is a bad color on the eyes. Hold on let me change this.
There, hows that? I like that color!
Well my life is certainly up and down lately. Lots going on, mainly right now I have chapped lips!. Last week I exercised up until thursday when Papaw died. Got back on treadmill sunday night, and guess what?! I got back on last night! TTL I am on a roll (that is my new acronym, TTL Thank The Lord) Made a cake last night too. Even cut the fat by icing it with low fat cool whip and using applesauce instead of tons of oil. It is sooo moist. YUM!
Church was fun Sunday night, Sis Kim has such great ideas!
I didn't get to go to the concert, spent time with family instead due to death. But the tickets were able to be used by a friend of mine anyway, she said she really enjoyed it. I am glad they got used somewhere.
Damon and I are actually getting a REFUND this year! WOOHOOO again!
I have been looking at old fashioned baby names, NOT that I am trying to get pregnant. I just have always liked to look for names, even before I was married, so when and if that day ever came I'd be ready. I want somethign VERY unique but that still has ties to family. Like for a girl I like the name Beau (pronounced bow) Murrì Broyles. Beau is derived from beaulah which was my Grandys name and also means heaven land. I dont much like beauluh, but I do think a girl with the name beau would be so cute! Damon and I also like the names Denver and Dallas for a boy. I like the name Kent Wilson or Kent Woodrow, Kent is my dads name and Woodrow Wilson was damons papaws name and his dads middle name is wilson. I also like the name bella, maddox, Kai'enna, Pearl, Sterling, Ruthie, Baker. Etc... Peace out yall, tis lunch time. I got something callin my tummy by name!

I'm back
Hey again everybody.
I am back from my time off due to papaw's death. It was a happy and sad time. Andy called me about 10 am and told me Papaw had died, he had been found near his recliner around 9:00-9:30. He was already cold, so I have no idea how long ago he had died or how long it takes for the body to go cold. I prayed for him I believe at around 5:30 that morning. Hopefully he made it right. Too many of us prayed for God not to answer it. We didnt care if they all became members and the best Christian ever, just don't let them die unsaved was my family's prayer. Andy and Yvonne were the first ones there, Jenniefer had taken the boys (Noah and Zacchaeus) so they wouldn't have to see all of that. They didn't understand. Then Richard (Damon's dad and papaws son) then I got there, then Damon, then Neal, then Devon (the other two son's) The funeral home took him away, it was very sad. They made us leave the room, I am guessing because rigamordim (sp?) had set in. Papaw was such a sweet man, he really welcomed me when I felt others didn't. I remember the last time I saw him, he still had that rambunctious glimmer in his eyes. The whole family went out to eat that night at Palmas Verdes, oh yes I forgot, Damon drove to kentucky and picked up Nada's sister. So many people in his family smoke (I have some in mine that smoke too) that house was soo stagnant with smoke. I washed my hair and it still smelled of it. Anyway, Fancy came over that night as well, she was high on something. She needs prayer, I guess I need to pray harder for her. Her sin is no bigger than mine was before I came to God. On Friday we had the viewing for the family, Yvonne almost collapsed, she's having the hardest time. Papaw looked good, he will be cremated. We said our goodbyes. That night our pastor and his wife brought TONS of good. 80 pcs of chicken, potato salad, rolls, man. LOTS OF FOOD! Then the memorial was Saturday. Neal asked me to sing beyond the sunset, and Never Grow Old. I learned them both Saturday about an hour before the memorial, but really only felt comfortable with one of them. Damon and I had picked up the soundtrack to "when I get where I'm going" and we sang it together for Papaw. We did so good. I don't say that bragging, but Damon doesn't have confidence in himself, I am so proud of him. Papaw would have liked it. There were several there, then the church provided a big meal for the family and friends. It was all in all a good time with family. It was sad, and happy. I miss papaw, I truly loved him and he was a light in that family. A light of kindness of love. I hope he made it, cus I wanna hug his neck someday.

My true love is mine, and I am his...
Not in much of a blogging mood today. I know you can't shut your jaws that just dropped.
Let's see... Made home made banana pudding last night. Even made it low fat, and it STILL tasted as good as regular. Used 1% milk, fat free sweetened condensed milk, 0 trans fat cookies, bananas are obviously not bad, and it's DELICIOUS. I could eat the whole bowl, and knowing it's not so bad...makes me want to eat it worse. MMMM *daydreams*
Worked out last night making it the 2nd day in a row. Uped my time to about 20minutes at a fast walk and sometimes a jog. Watched Sea Biscuit to keep myself entertained while I worked out. Noticed I walked WAY faster during the race scenes. I cannot watch horse races fake or real without biting my nails. My dad used to race horses, we have owned probably about 5-10 throughout the years. They all did pretty well. So I guess I have a bit of a love for the sport, minus the gambling part. Anyhooo...damon walks in DURING my exercise time with a HUGE snickers blizzard from DQ *sigh*. I only ate a little bit of it, it's in the freezer right now. It didn't even taste good, cus I like big chunks of snickers. I am gonna have to go buy one and chop it up to even like eating the thing. They made them all so small (the chunks of snickers). But it was a sweet thought.
Have a LOT on my mind, concerning my life and Damon's. God knows...resting in that. Been fighting a few things lately, spritiually. It's funny, I haven't read my Bible AS much lately, but still everday, and I feel like I am going deeper than I have in a while with the Lord. Guess it's not quantity but quality.
Pray for me, love yall
