Good morning,
   I pray that everyones morning is great. Think about this. You woke up. You are honor with another day. So many of us are not going to be waking up so you should feel honor that the Lord has chosen you today..
  My little grandaughter is growing up. She has started school. Its only headstart but the fact that she has started is such a great thing for us..  I am so proud of my eldest daughter.. She is taking good care of her. I will never say that to her though. It will swell her head.
     Enjoy your day today my blogger family and remember smile..God loves you!!!!

Still living...

Good morning to all. Iy has been so long since I have had a post..  so much has gone by. First let me start by saying God is so good all the time. I am a living witness of that.
  Summer was beautiful. Very hot. We were able to squeeze a family trip to Myrtle beach. My grandchildren went and all my kids. My son graduated this year from high school and just yesterday was his first day of college. Im so proud of him..
We had kept my eldest grandaughter for a month. She lives in Virginia so I don't get to see her often.
    I have not felt quite so good this month. When people say that the closer you try to do right thing and search God the more adversaries come your way.  This is so true. It has felt that no matter what I try to do, there is something pulling me back down. I am a woman of a lot of faith and even though I question things a lot i know that all the good things in my life come from my heavenly father.
I have been feeling lots of pain on my right side so i went to the Dr. and they ran some tests to see what was causing this horrible pain. I prayed so hard and even though I still have a lot of pain on the side , there was nothing on my test results that would indicate anything was wrong. The Dr. was shock because she thought for sure that I had to remove my appendix and even worst my kidneys... but I am a child of the living God Jesus and because I called on his name for healing I know there was nothing to worry about...
   Thank you to all for being there listening to me as I blab but just wanted to share this with someone..

     Hello eveyone... Hope your day was full of blessings and good health besides all the turmoil you might have endure. The picture above is were I am going with my family this year for vacation.Myrtle Beach here we come. We will be leaving on June 21, and I just can't wait. It has been a long year and so much has happened. We deserve to treat ourselves. This is a much needed time off. Just looking at this picture, I am already relaxed.

  This is the water side. Just anxious. It's kind of like our son graduating and father's day and my middle daughter turning 21"s birthday bash that we will be celebrating down there. Ill show pics next week after we get back.
     Keep us in your prayers as we do for you and may God keep blessing you now and always.....
      

Congratulations to my son

Hello all. I hope you are doing great in the name of Jesus... 
Today I celebrate a big crossroad in my son's life. He graduated high school. He got his diploma. I am so proud. I can not even explain it. He was the last of mt children to graduate. God has truly blessed me
I am so overjoyed.

Home sweet home...

   Good morning all. Hope that this morning finds you uplifted and thankful next to your love ones. Given honor and glory to my heavenly father for a beautiful morning and thanking him for his love and mercy. Thanks for the safe return of my daughter and grandaughter , whom flew back home yesterday from there vacation...
      I am so happy to see my grandaughter . She was in Florida on vacation and I was missing her so bad. But now she is here. Yeahhhh
      Since I last blog, so many things have happen. My son is graduating this Saturday. I am very proud of him. He has truly been a good kid. He has worked hard to make it and I am so grateful that my father up above has blessed me with such a
wonderful kid.
          My middle daughter whom is in college in St. Johns , received a paid intership from a reporter from cnn... I was so extremely excited for her. She has studied really hard and made such a great sacrifice to stay in school. You see we live in Pennsylvania and her college is in New York. She stays with my sister and shares a bed. She also works as an assistant store marketing coordinator for Dkny .....
She comes home on the weekends .

              

Hello again....

                     It has been months since I have written in my blog. So much to talk about.
                    Let me start by giving thanks to my heavenly father for keeping me under his grace and mercy all the time. I am truly one blessed child...
              I am so greatful for so many things that truly I am overwhelmed...I heard this the other day , once you are in Gods presence you have to accept it, acknowledge it and honor it....
            Very strong words and had me thinking, how we do not acknowledge the things that we have. Stop being so envious of everything else. I will admit I am one of those who wish I had the things other people have, but what I forget is what their struggles are.... Easy to want someone elses life but not realize the good comes with the bad.

   Well my grandbaby is visiting Florida.. She is celebrating her 3rd birthday over there. I miss her so much. I am glad that she is having fun. My other grandaughter is 5 and she graduate from kindergarten this year.... I am so proud of her..  and last but not least my grandson is going to be 3 months old.. time is flying by. My son whom is 18 graduates next week from high school. Now college...yeahhh

Sadness and Joy

Hello to all my blogger brothers and sisters... I pray today life finds you full of health and wellness.....
  It has been over a month since I have last blog. So much has happen.
First let me start by saying that life  is so short. I know this sounds like a cliche but, it is so true....
 This month has been full of surprises for me and my family..
On my  last post,  I had went to Virginia in anticipation that my daughter would be giving birth, but nothing happened. She was hospitalized for a few days.. I had to come back home. On March 14, 2012 she finally had a son. So we instantly became grandparents to a healthy baby boy,,, Jaziah Antonio is his name...( pics will come at a later time ). We have been so delighted and blessed. We currently have two granddaughters. Kamari 5 and Je'Nelle 2.....Now we have the boy to complete our family..

Easter vacation we had our eldest grandaughter and our niece... It was our niece's first trip by herself... I also kept my youngest grandbaby so they were all together and had a ball. All my little princesses..
For Easter we had  a egghunt and gave them baskets and we played for a while outside. It was a beautiful day... I will post some pictures of all this when I get my pictures uploaded...

Last week I discovered that my only son whom is 18 years old, sings and plays the guitar... I went to a coffee house concert that the school he attends was hosting for them.... I was so shock to see him and of course I started crying......

Yesterday morning I received a phone call... My friend was screaming and crying so much I could not hear what she was saying. Later I found out her husband had past. He was only 44 years old. Tall and big guy but not overweight.. He was our friend. My husband and him were close. He was almost like family... I should say he was family because when you are a christian and your father is Lord then we automatically become brothers and sisters in christ .... This news is so out of place for us. No one ever expected this. So I plead with you to live life to the fullest. Enjoy all God has put on this earth for you. Enjoy the grace and mercy Jesus has given you when he died on the cross for us.........

Reuniting the grandkids

 Well hello,,,
       I hope all is well in your lake of the woods. This weekend I went to Virginia with my husband and my youngest grandaughter, Je'nelle. We had hope that while we were visiting our daughter would have gave birth to our grandson since, she was in the hospital all weekend long with labor pains but , the baby was just not ready to make his way to this earth. We manage to pick up our oldest grandaughter , Kamari, and kept her with us. Needless to say how exicted my youngest grandaughter was to see her cousin.

Jenelle and Kamari..

Jenelle is not use to having all her cousins around her. She is an only child and all my nieces and nephews live in between New york and Virginia. This was very special to her and to be able to spend a weekend with her them meant so much to her. 

My original visit was to go to my grandma's gravsite. As you may or may not know, my grandma had past a few months back. I decided that I would go and visit her gravesite. It was a bit rough but , I believe that we will all meet again one day and I know she is better off than she was here. No more pain or suffering... Just peaceful sleep until our time to rise up...

Hopefully the next time I write , I would have a new edition to our family... 

My grandaughter Kamari and my nephew Mekhi

My grandaughter Je'nelle  and my niece Essynce..

                               

Pray

                                                

I want to start my blog as I always do by thanking my heavenly father for all he is and in the name of Jesus I want to pray for all those states that are being affected by these storms... I want prayer for these surviving family members that not only do they need to put their homes and lives back together but also have to mourn the lost of their love ones....
    I saw in the news that a little girl they found lost her life today... Her family had died in their mobile home. I would like to believe that she has went up to heaven and join the rest of her siblings....
http://edition.cnn.com/2012/03/04/us/indiana-tornado-girl/?hpt=us_c1 .. This tragedy is just one of the stories we are hearing about...
   I ask myself what is in my heart today. There is so much sadness around the world today , you can help but be sad . I have always try to find the good in a tragedy but, this is a bit much....I found this so I thought I share..


                                 What Is On Your Heart?   
Hebrews 8:10


10“… I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts…”


Many of us have been taught that we cannot trust our hearts. We quote verses like “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked…” (Jeremiah 17:9), not knowing that Jeremiah was referring to the man who had not received Jesus as his Lord and Savior.
But the desire comes from my heart. How do I know if it is of God?”
My friend, once you are saved, you have a brand new heart (Ezekiel 36:26), and you can trust the promptings of your heart because God dwells in you and He leads you from within. And don’t worry because His promptings will never contradict His Word. It will lead you to good success.
Often, you find that when you follow your inner promptings, it is actually God who has put those desires in your mind and written them on your heart. I remember years ago when I approached one of our church leaders and told him, “I really think that you are called to be a full-time pastor.” It turned out to be a confirmation of what he already knew on the inside. You see, God was already leading him from within. Today, he is one of our full-time pastors.

If you enjoy something and desire to do it, then go for it! Go with the flow. God Himself says that He will guide us from within. Let’s not doubt Him. And don’t worry about the outcome. Your part is just to follow the flow. God’s part is to work in you both the willingness and the performance of it! (Philippians 2:13)
Beloved, because God has given you a new heart, He will write His desires on it. And as you fulfill these desires, you will bring forth fruit, and not wither and die. Whatever you do will prosper!


It's been quite a while since I have read my town's paper... I found a joke I wanted to share....
                       "Haircut"

A young boy had just gotten his driver's license and inquired of his mother, an evangelist , if they could discuss the use of the car.
His mother said, " I'll make a deal with you. You bring your grades up from C to a B average, study your Bible a little, get your hair cut and we'll talk about the car."

Well, the boy thought about that for a moment , decided that he'd settle for the offer and they agreed on it.
After about six weeks, they went into the study, where his mother said, " Son I've been real proud . You've brought your grades up and I've observed that you have been studying your Bible and participating a lot more in the Bible study groups. However, I'm disappointed since you haven't gotten your hair cut. "

The young man paused a moment and then said, "You know, Mom, I've been thinking about that. I've noticed in my studies of the Bible that Samson had long hair, John the Baptist had long hair, Moses had long hair and there's even a strong argument that Jesus had long hair also."

To this, his mother replied, " Did you also notice that they walked everywhere they went?"

Remember I just read the jokes........ and share...
      Have a great day..

Hello my dearest friends... Many blessings to you and your family...
 I want to share this inspirational message with you ........
              Covered, Protected, Delivered
Exodus 13:21
21And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead the way, and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so as to go by day and night.

When the children of Israel were wandering in the desert, God led them by going before them in a pillar of cloud by day and pillar of fire by night.

By day, God spread the pillar of cloud as a covering over His people in the desert to prevent the scorching sun from striking them down. The people were shaded and kept cool. Today, you are also under His covering. He will not allow you to be struck down (Psalm 121:3–8), nor be oppressed by the “heat” of the day. (Isaiah 54:14)

At night, when the desert became dark and cold, God gave His people the pillar of fire to light the way for them, as well as to keep them warm and safe. Today, as you walk with God, you will not be overwhelmed by the cold, dark places in life because God’s Word says, “You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness.” (1 Thessalonians 5:5) You will not fear the terror by night or the pestilence that walks in darkness because God will deliver you from them. (Psalm 91:5–6)

Like the children of Israel, who only needed to look up, and keep their eyes on the pillar of cloud and the pillar of fire, all you need to do today is to look up and keep your eyes on Jesus. When you need His direction for a situation, look to Jesus who has the words of eternal life. (John 6:68) When you see symptoms of sickness in your body, look to Jesus who has borne away every disease and physical affliction. (Matthew 8:17)

When the children of Israel were bitten by serpents in the desert, God told Moses to make a bronze serpent and put it on a pole — a picture of Christ being judged on the cross. (John 3:14) Those who looked at the bronze serpent instead of their wounds were healed. (Numbers 21:9) He who looks to Jesus lives!

Beloved, look to Jesus. He is your covering, protection and deliverance!

        As I read this I was thinking of all the things that has happen around the world.. All these tornadoes and storms... I can only pray and ask God to cover those people that were effected by such tragedies..I ask that if you have time while you pray for you and your family that you add a little prayer for them who suffer more..
      

It's our Anniversary.....

  Hello everyone. I want to thank my heavenly father for another wonderful day on this earth....

Guess what... It's our Anniversary... 18 years.. 

Here we are at Mt. Airy Casino and Resort. Gorgeous place...

We really enjoyed ourselves...

 Many years ago, I met my husband and never in a million years did I think that I would be so blessed to have shared so many different memories with him. We always measure blessings in the things that we have and the things we feel accomplished but the reality is that my biggest blessing was sharing my life with a man who is father to my children, friend to me and my roommate at home.. I thank the Lord everyday for giving me a partner that has been able to be there for me through the good and has been there for the bad. That is one of my biggest gift from God. And with this man I was able to receive my other gifts , my family. I have 3 beautiful daughters and 1 son. We have 2 granddaughters and 1 grandson on the way...

What else can I so selfishly ask for...

There is a song that says:

 " I had some good days, I've had some hills to climb,

 I've had some weary days and some sleepless nights, 

but when I , when I look around and I think things over, 

some of my good days out weigh my bad days and I ,

I wont complain...

sometimes the clouds hang low, I can hardly see the road,

I ask a question Lord, why so much pain,

but he knows whats best for me 

although my weary eyes, they cant see

so I just say thank you Lord, Thank you Lord,

 I won't complain.."

Today on a spiritual note, I heard an inspirational sermon from Pastor Joseph Prince, I thought I shared....

Convince Yourself, Not God Mark 5:28 28For she said, “If only I may touch His clothes, I shall be made well.” With a crowd thronging Him, Jesus was touched by a lot of people that day (Mark 5:31), but only the touch of one woman drew a response from Him. And her touch sparked off instant healing in her body, releasing her from a sickness that had plagued her for 12 years. Do you want to know how to touch God and receive the miracle you need? When the woman heard that Jesus was coming by her village, she said to herself, “If only I may touch His clothes, I shall be made well.” On her way to see Jesus, she probably told herself many times, “If I touch His clothes, I will be healed. I will be made whole.” We don’t know how long she had been saying that to herself, but she was convinced that Jesus would heal her. If you are sick, convince yourself that Jesus is your healer and that by His stripes you are healed. You don’t need to convince God. He is not the one who needs to be persuaded because His blessing is already on you! It isyou who needs to be persuaded that God has already given you your miracle. That is the reason you confess His Word — to convince yourself, not God, to persuade your heart, not His. Some people confess their faith to others to convince God indirectly. For example, if they are believing God for healing, they go around telling their friends, “I am believing God for healing.” They are actually trying to convince or persuade God to heal them. They are telling God, “I’ve told so many people what I am believing You for. It would be very embarrassing if You don’t make it happen.” Their confession proceeds from unbelief and is used to manipulate God. It is okay to tell others if you want to, so that they can stand in faith with you for your miracle. But don’t do it to prove your faith to God and to convince Him. You just need to convince yourself that God loves you and delights in blessing you. Just say to yourself, “By His stripes I am healed. I will not suffer lack. I am greatly blessed, highly favored, deeply loved!” And let God take care of the rest. All scripture quotations, unless otherwise indicated, are taken from the New King James Version ®.

 I have been listening to this Pastor and his sermons are wonderful... Just wanted to share.... Hope you have a wonderful evening , blessed and prosperous...

Hello to all. It's Ash WEDNESDAY... I hope you had time to go to church.... For those of you who know ash wednesday but do not really understand what it means :::::::


     Lent is a time when many Christians prepare for Easter by observing a period of fasting, repentance, moderation and spiritual discipline. During some Ash Wednesday services, the minister will lightly rub the sign of the cross with ashes onto the foreheads of worshipers.

                                                
     The Bible does not mention Ash Wednesday or the custom of Lent, however, the practice of repentance and mourning in ashes is found in 2 Samuel 13:19; Esther 4:1; Job 2:8; Daniel 9:3; and Matthew 11:21.

Most people do not eat meat. This is very easy for me... I have adapted this new theory. I believe that you should sacrifice something that you feel you have to have. Like something that you are addicted too.My addiction is sweets. As I am typing , I am craving so bad a piece of chocolate or candy... I did not eat meat.. So for the next 40 days , I have made a commitment to skip chocolates and meat... I will eat fish, sardines etc..
I have so much to be greatful for. After all that Jesus Christ has done for me to, repent and fast is a small token of my appreciation for all the sacrifice he has done for me....
I pray for strength and wisdom and hope that I gain a little stronger faith..I hope that you do well in your sacrifice and do know that it means the world to your Heavenly father..
I hate to admit but, I am afraid of trying new things... So I was at home this Sunday.. Did not go to church. I was changing the channel and wanted to listen to the ministries that I normally do when I do not physically go to church. As I change the channel, I had the honor of listening to this particular Pastor. I have to be honest, I was seconds from changing the channel but something kept me from doing this.I was blessed with such a sermon and I was  revive and full of spirit. The Pastor's name was Joseph Prince... He is really great... The link to his website www.josephprince.org..
This is a Daily Grace Inspirational Devotion for the day from his site...

Having All Things Added To You Matthew 6:33 33But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. You are probably a responsible person who is concerned about providing well for your family — making sure that there is food on the table, money for the children’s needs, comfort and education, and so on. What does God have to say to us about these legitimate concerns? According to Matthew 6:31, He tells us, “Do not worry.” Now, He is not saying that we don’t need all these things because in the same portion of scripture He says, “For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.” (Matthew 6:32) So God cares about us having these things. He wants us to have all these things. In fact, He wants all these things added to us. And He tells us that the way these things are added to us is by us seeking first the kingdom of God and His righteousness. Therefore, our number one priority every day is to seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness. It is not to seek to add these things to ourselves. But what is righteousness? Righteousness is not right behavior. It is right standing with the Father. It is the clearance of all your guilt, which makes you able to stand before God. It is not something you get through right behavior. It is a gift from God. Paul calls it “the gift of righteousness”. (Romans 5:17) And to “seek” this gift is to be conscious of the fact that you have it, to confess that you are righteous in Christ. So this righteousness we are told to seek is not right behavior, but right standing before God, which comes to us as a gift when we receive salvation. At the cross, Jesus didn’t just remove our sins, He also gave us His righteousness so that today, we can come boldly before the throne of God and receive freely everything that He died to give us! Today, if you want to provide your family with the good things in life, be assured that your heavenly Father knows that you need these things. Just seek His righteousness, not your own righteousness, and “all these things shall be added to you”!

" The Power Patience"

Patience is essential for every aspect of  life.....
Delays.. God wants us to respond with calm acceptance to moments and seasons of waiting, while trusting in His sovereignty over every situation. Though the delay may seem annoying and senseless , the Lord uses these times to mature us. One of the first lessons a young child learn is how to wait. And our displays of irritation and anger are really just adult versions of childish tantrums. Each time you feel impatience rise up in your heart, remember that this is an opportunity to choose a mature response instead of acting like a spiritual toddler.....
 

    WITH WINGS LIKE EAGLES.....
     The Secret Strength of Waiting for God


Read Isaiah 40
In this prophecy of Isaiah, the Lord speaks comfort to his people against backdrop of suffering and exile. Likewise, we often feel weak and alone in times of waiting. Yet this passage reveals the incomparable power and love of God- and the life He offers to those who seek Him as their sole strength and desire..

 I wanted to share some of these things with you because the way things are going in this world today, we all need to hear  that things are going to change for the better as long as we pray together for our nations and we wait on God and stop trying to fix the things that we can not.....
 

Willing to Wait ....

Good evening to all my brothers and sisters... Today although I had some bad news , I am still being blessed through our heavenly fathers mercy... I pray for this nation and it's direction that it's going and I pray mostly for our children that they are able to receive Jesus in their lives... Everytime I look around , we take God out of everything we do... I am so surprise it is still being printed in the money we use..
As I had told you I had received not so good news, and with my not so good news I also received this booklet in my mail. It was a pamphlet that was sent to me by the "In Touch Ministries"... The beginning of it started out by reading Waiting on God... I just sighed.
I have such a problem with waiting. My patience is something  I have been working on. Normally I am the type of person that wants things right away. I have change a lot but I am still a working progress. I pray almost everyday to help me with this and  its been working so far. Today was truly a test of time for me so I know that my prayers are being answered...
    The phamplet stated the power of patience...I am going to quote you some of what it said because I think that this is how we feel...
  " From the mundane to the profound moments of our lives-- from waiting on traffic lights and elevators to the end of suffering  or the fulfillment of dreams-- life gives us no choice but to wait. Yet patience is becoming a rare quality in today's world. How often do we complain when something doesn't happen on the schedulewe have in mind, or when some unforseen obstacle prevents us from moving foward?
  For those of us who call upon the name of Jesus, patience is a characteristic we should cultivate. No one is born with it --just look at a new born baby! Rather, patience is fruit, which is developed over time(Gal. 5:22-23). Without it we'll never become the people God desires us to be or achieve what he's planned for us to do."
It goes on to say a lot more which I'll share with you tommorow. I just don't want to drag this blog ....
Pray for me as I will pray for you... God Bless and thanks for taking the time to share some thoughts with me...

A day of mourning...Black history month..

  

Our father which art in heaven,

hallowed be thy name

thy kingdom come

thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven,

give us this day our daily bread

and forgive us our debts,

as we forgive our debtors 

and lead us not into tempataion ,

but deliver us from evil:

For thine is the kingdom,

and the power and the glory

for ever

 AMEN...

Matt 6: 9-13

I thought today I start my blog a little different. I was very overwhelmed last night when I heard over the news that a favorite singer of mine had past. I teared up a little. I had hoped that she would have found peace eventually and had gotten herself freed from the demons that drugs cause you . Whether prescriptioned drugs or street drugs. It all is the same to me.Whitney Houston is the singer I am referring to in case you did not hear the news. I am not speculating that drugs were a factor. It could have been a whole bunch of things but, this is what had brought such an iconic diva with the voice of an angel downhill. She was criticize and an easy target for mockery for her very well known disturbing behaviour. I can not even begin to understand how her family could be coping with this news right now. I just pray that their faith is strong enough to help them through this. It has sadden me because there are such few good singers left. If you had not her Whitney at her prime time click on the link below. It will take you to her singing the National Anthem. It was in 1991 at the prime of her career. This was the singer that I will remeber as one of the greatest voices of all time. Rest in Peace truly.......

Whitney houston singing the National Anthem.....

As I was looking at what this month was chosen to signify, I realized that it was not about Valentine's Day but, for my son to remeber his heritage.It is black history month.  I am not an african-american. My husband is. So it is a little difficult at times to try to teach my son about what his race had to go through in life just to get him here to a place in time where he has so much opportunities. All the doors that have been opened for him because of the struggles. So I make it my business to educate myself all the time because unfortunately in school they only summarize one small month, what has taken years to accomplish. My family has always loved music and I must say all we ever played in my home was american music. Although I was born here in the United States, my parent are hispanic. I hardly ever play spanish music and hardly speak spanish. A big boo-boo of mine. My children would have benefit a lot from learning. I just never wanted to confuse them. It is hard enough to learn the things that are taught today. With all the new technology . I did not want  to burden them. Now they have to learn it in school. Being that said we all grew up with gospel and rand B . Also at the beginning of the 90's late 80's some hip-hop. Not that crap these kids have to listen to today. Not many choices available made to them today.I don't want to offend the musicians that we have today or even the listeners but, let's speak the truth...

On the beginning of the month , we lost Don Cornelius( mind my spelling plssss.)

A man that change television....

Then looking back at just last year, I notice all the musicians that we had lost as well,

Here is Nick Ashford from Ashford and Simpson,

Solid as a rock...

Here is Heavy D... This was one of my favorite rappers when I was younger..

Heavy D's video... Now that we found love

An unforgettable songstress...Ms. Etta James

At Last.. Her most known song

Then I notice we also lost Clarence clemmons

For those who do not know who this saxophonist was, he played along side

 Bruce Springsteen....

I had taken notice how much musicians were lost last year and then I notice we lost Joe Frazier.

A boxing legend.. Wow

It was a bit much for me to go through. I just pray real hard that the people that have made such an impact in who we are today do not become forgotten... All these people had a purpose and they accomplished it... May God Bless their souls......

To take you off track here I read this in the magazine Black Enterprise...

The article talk about Women who behave like they are wealthy....

It asked to check to see if I was one of them.. I took the quick test... Lucky I did not pass...

It states...

Your purse costs $500, your smartphone costs $350, your wallet costs $200, your cosmetics cost $250...

You have more than a $1000 dollars on things you have purchased.. Your bag, smartphone, wallet and cosmetics but how much do you have in the bank?????

See the seven signs that tell you if you're a woman behaving wealthy or on your way to constantly broke at

Good luck...

Thank you for taking the time to spend with me...

May God Bless you and keep you...

It's Saturday....

    I want to share a story with you today but first I want to say hello and hope all is well. Here in Pennsylvania, it decided to snow. We have about 3 inches so far. Not bad for our area but, enough to make a mess..It's been a long winter but not a bad one. Very strange weather we are having.....

      Today was full of goodbye for a good old co-worker of mine. This lady has work for the company for 45 years and it was a blessing to see that she was able to retired and still  be full of energy. I have known her for a good 10 years. When I first met her , I use to run away from her. She was very annoying to me. Let me tell you this much before I continue. I was not always a christian person. I never really wanted to hear anyone that preach Jesus. You see Ms. Eva, the lady that is retiring, is a born again christian. So everytime she use to stop me to talk, she always wanted to talk about church. At the time , I did not want to hear it. I was so stupid. When I finally found christ for myself, our conversations were so pleasureable. She has such a spirit about her and I had to ask God to forgive me for not listening before. I felt like I wasted so much time and knowledge that she could have given me. Now my angel is retiring. Although it is a much needed rest that she is going to receive, her main focus is to go work at the church that she has volunteer for so long. Now she is excited about the thought that she will be able to give her time to the church and get more involve. She is going to serve the lord. I am so happy for her. May God bless this woman of God and may she accomplish what her heart desires the most and that's to be able to do the lords work .

     A stupid Joke...
   College kids vs. Bums

Two college students, Frank and Matt are riding on a New York City subway when a beggar approaches them asking for spare change.
Frank adamantly rejects the man in disgust.
Matt, on the other hand, whips out his wallet, pulls out a couple of dollar bills and gladly hands them over to the beggar with a smile.
The beggar thanks him kindly and then continues on to the other passengers. Frank is outraged by his friend's act of generosity.
"What on earth did you do that for shouts Frank. " You know he's only going to use it on drugs or booze!!"
Matt replies, " What....and we weren't?"

 It's saturday . Sad to say i'm glad the day is over. I had a long day at work and a long ride home...
  Yesterday I shared a ladies drink... And today it's no different. I want to share another drink.. It's called the Grasshopper....
1 shot green creme de menthe
1 shot white creme de cacao
2 scoops vanilla ice cream
fresh mint sprig and whipped cream

Place creme de menthe, creme de cacao and ice cream into a blender. Blend until thick and creamy. Pour into 12 ounce glass. Garnish with whipped cream and a sprig of mint...

Today has a sharing aspect...

Today I want to start by thanking my lord for another day on this earth and the strength that I needed to see it through...
  
I was off of work today. Thought I would sleep in all day and just be lazy. I really need a good old lazy day. The kind of day that you do not even get out of bed and eat. I was watching my grandaughter today. No sleep no rest and definetly no time to be lazy... Although she is my shining star, she works me tirelessly. I become so exhausted that I feel like I need a day off right after. She has so much energy and drags me along with her. We watch the wizard of oz today. It has been a movie she has gotten addicted to. I must say I have always loved that movie. It reminds me of a time when life was so simple...

SO what are you doing for Valentines Day..

 After being with my husband 20 years, Valentines day for us becomes everyday. Everyday we are together , iyts a reason to celebrate in my eyes. I have witness the year of 2011 go through a lot of break ups and so it has become a blessing that my husband and myself share, to be able to be together after so many years and still be giddy about each other. Since I was in the sharing mood I wanted to share with you my favorite drink... Maybe you can tried it with your valentine meal or as a catnap...
   I found it in the Sandra Lee Semi-Homemade cooking 3 edition. It's called Golden Cadillac.
  The recipe goes as follows
       1/2 shot herbal liquer(Galliano)
       1/2 shot orange liquer( Grand Marnier)
       1 shot white creme de cacao
       2 scoops  vanilla ice cream
      splash orange juice
         Top with whipped cream......
Place all ingredients, except whipped cream, in a blender. Blend until thick and creamy. Pour into a 12 0unce glass and top with whipped cream (optional)....
I also slice an orange and decorate my glass with it...
 I feel so cool and sophisticated when I have one of these. The prroblem is since they are like milkshake I tend to drink pretty fast and end up a little to intoxicated before I know... As you see I am not a big drinker...
      Thanks for sharing some of your time with me and may God Bless you today , tommorow and always...
