Prayers Please

Hey Y'all, Just a quick post to ask for your prayers please. Lee's Disability hearing is at 12:15 eastern time Tuesday May 1. Please cover us in prayer. Please pray that he will get approval and that the decision date will be 2010. That is the best outcome  for us. We really need this to be approved. Regardless of the outcome we will praise God for all the blessings he has poured over us. Thank Y'all Your prayers mean the world to us.

Hey Y'all How are you today? My vacation is going OK so far, come on in and sit a spell.  I'll grab ya a glass of sweet tea and we can visit. Speaking of visiting...be sure to visit Beverly's Blog and meet some of the nicest people in blog land. I think I need a bigger wreath on my door...lol So yesterday I posted a few things I wanted to get done on my days off, a trip to Michael's to use the gift card Marcia sent me last year was on that list, so off to Chesapeake we went. I did get the scoring board and a few other goodies and only spent $7.35 over what I had on the gift card I was a happy gal. We had lunch, went to Lee's lawyer for a bit then went and  picked up some meds for him. He was having a good day too. Then we came home... I had the idea since our dog has already had a few fleas this spring we would put some flea powder on the carpets.I didn't want him laying on it or breathing it all in for the few hours we were gonna be gone, so we put

Hey Y'all, How are you today? I am taking a few days off from work, originally I had planned to be at a conference for christian women this weekend, but that didn't pan out... so I am feeling like I have not been living life to it's fullest and it is high time to change that!  So I figured that if I post some things here it will motivate me to get off my rear and live a little. 1. I really want to take a walk on the beach! It has been ages since I have been down there and I miss it! sunset at the outer banks image from google search  2. I need to get a hair cut! I have been growing my hair long for a while now, I want to donate some to Locks Of Love and I am ready to do that now! Lee likes my hair long, so I have held off longer than I wanted to because for some reason it makes him happy. I however am over it and want a new look! 3 .Use the gift card Marcia sent me last year! I want a Martha Stewart Scoring Board and Michael's has them 40% off so a trip t

Q & A

Have you ever been to visit Tammy at Beatrice Banks ? photo from Beatrice Banks Blog If you have not, you are missing out on so much! Her home is lovely and she has the most inspiring posts.  I always have a  light and breezy feeling after visiting her.  On her post I read the other day she had been tagged and had ??? to answer. I was NOT one of the people she tagged to answer her ??? but I liked the questions and decided I would answer and post them any way.  Feel free to do the same on your blog and /or feel free to leave your answers here. I love getting to know you and I hope you get to know me a bit better too. 1. Who was your hero growing up? That is a tough one, my dad has always been my hero, on the silly side I would say Wonder Woman...teehee I would spin around with construction paper wrist cuffs with crayon stars on them. I even had Wonder Woman Under-Roos (remember them...HA!) 2.  What are 3 things you can't live without? My Bible, Coca-Cola and Ice Cream

Pink Saturday...on a Sunday :)

Hey Pinkies how are ya? I love spending another weekend with the lovely Beverly  ,and all the pink ladies in blog land. P lease visit and enjoy all the pinkness there! I spent all day Saturday brooding about what to share, I resigned myself to missing another week since I had no pink...then I realized I have an abundance of pink that surrounds me on a daily basis, the following are just a few candid shots as it occurred to me, and I grabbed my camera...which by the way is a Pink Nikon S4000. Sitting beside me was my huge mug that was a gift from my friend Ruth. My pink Bic Cristal, that I was using to write a note to a friend. My pink Razr, yes I know, I know...it's ancient as far as phones go...BUT it still works just fine and I do not have to pay for a data plan! :) Oh and I was wearing a pink blouse today too, but you don't need a photo of that...teehee. My very short nails are coated in Sally Hansen Salon Effects in Camo, which I love. It is easy to put o

Catchin' Up....Again

Hey Y'all! I feel like it has been forever since I sat down here to visit. I will try to do better. Grandma Hazel was laid to rest on Saturday, it was a beautiful spring day and it was a lovely celebration of her life.  My dad delivered the most perfect eulogy. The cemetery she is in is the most beautiful peaceful place. It is perfect for her. Easter was another beautiful day and of course I left my camera at home...yikes! So I have no photos to share of the beautiful celebration of our Lord's Resurrection. I am sure I can get some from the family so I'll post those at a later date.  We had a lovely day at my parent's church and then a fun filled afternoon at Beth and Steve's house, we all brought side dishes and Steve grilled chicken, hot dogs, and hamburgers...yummy!  Every thing was so good, my sisters and mom are great cooks and we always have a great spread, We topped it off with these almost too cute to eat cupcakes that Laura made...ALMOST...LOL

Grandma Hazel...

Last night Grandma Hazel went to be with Jesus. In this photo on the left is Faith & my sister Joanne, on the right is Grandma Hazel, Marie ( I ThINK?) Kristen, Gary and Gary's folks. Grandma Hazel is Faith's mom and Faith is my sister's Mother in law and Gary is her husband. Kristen is Gary's grand daughter. Have I confused you completely? It really sounds more complicated than it is...LOL! Grandma Hazel is my brother-in-laws grandma, BUT she was our grandma too. We loved her like she was our grandma and she loved us just like we were all hers too. We were blessed to have her in our lives for over 18 years. We will miss all the goodies she always baked and how nothing ever kept her down for long. SHE WAS TOUGH! She was a GREAT gardener and one heck of a lady! We are sad she is gone, but happy she is dancing with the Angels. We Love You, and will always miss you. Love, Jenny and Lee
