Proverbs: "Those who listen to instruction will prosper; those who trust the Lord will be  happy" (Proverbs 16:20).  Seems to be coming across loud and clear.......
Wrapped up in GOD is my srength, security, and satisfaction..... Wrapped up in GOD is all I need for life and godliness.....Wrapped up in GOD I'm a happy camper!

Three men were sitting together bragging about how they had given their new wives "duties".

Terry had married a woman from America.

And bragged that he had told his wife she was going to do all the dishes and house cleaning that needed done at their house. He said that it took a couple days but on the third day he came home to a clean house and the dishes were all washed and put away.

Jimmie had married a woman from Australia.

He bragged that he had given his wife orders that she was to do all the cleaning, dishes, and the cooking. He told them that the first day he didn't see any results, but the next day it was better. By the third day his house was clean, the dishes were done, and he had a huge dinner on the table.

Jeff, the third man, had married a Canadian girl.

He boasted that he told her that her duties were to keep the house cleaned, dishes washed, lawn mowed, laundry washed and hot meals on the table for every meal. He said the first day he didn't see anything, the second day he didn't see anything, but by the third day most of the swelling had gone down and he could see a little out of his left eye - enough to fix himself a bite to eat, load the dishwasher, and call a landscaper!

Just a passing fad.....

I am amazed at the fact that so many of us parents encourage, endorse and support the fads of today. Weather it be webkinz, peek-a-poohs, brand name wheeled shoes, or organized rec. programs....

I know that being brought up a generation ago we were poor and I knew it. Okay we were poorer than that, wrong side of the tracks, tailer trash..you get the picture. So today, I want to give my children everything;
I struggle to let them earn IT
I detest the wining tactic they use to speed up the process to obtaine IT
I hate when they do not appreciate IT
drives me crazy two days later forget-neglect-loose or break IT
& to top it all off they ask for the next IT! .... I am the maker of my own crazy cycle and I must like the ride or I would have got off by know! Then I am brought back to the cabbage patch kid craze of my youth.... Oh the days! I remember that my parent were somewhat accomidating .... to a reasonable extent, "if it don't take the beer money than okay, she can have it." lol! I was loved!

Still figuring things out.....

I thought by year 8 I would have a handle on things in the married life department, but whoaaa, I do not!... Rick is still a huge mystery to me..... God love him ... Point of the story is
~DON'T START SMOKIN' , IT WILL KILL YOU....OR YOUR WIFE WILL!!!!!!!~

Twice in one day you would think that I have nothing better to be doing....

Big daddy comes home from Kemano tomorrow. That means that I have a whole house to clean, plus I have to get gussied up so he know that I have missed him.......which is true, I have missed him... some of the time. It is the hardest thing as well as the easiest thing having Rick home for a week and then gone for a week. The best of both worlds.

Coffee'd with Kim this am (surprise)and we both started a blog, again thanxs to sista love. I am quite surprised at how stupid proof some of this stuff is. atta-boy computer people. I figure if I can figure my way around this anyone can. I am wanting to get the pics to go with it next so with mothers day just around the corner, HINT! HINT! Rick that is your cue... digital camera....go buy my own I know. While at coffee with Kim & sista Love we were talking about independance vs interdependance. And how we refuse to ask for help in order to maintain the apperace of strength or image. I am right in there not asking for help, doing it all by myself, so that I am maintaining the apperance that all is "fine"! I need help....

wow!!!!! I am bloggin' ! Thank goodness for sista Love or I would be stuck in the dark ages. I am movin' on up into the fast lane with this whole bloggin' thing.

Where to start.....A funny Rick story.....lol....
Only my hubby would witness a moose suicide.....Yes, a moose suicide!....Yesterday out in Kemano he was coming around a bend in the road and startled a bull moose! Surprised, the moose turned for a quick getaway....it ran right off the edge of the bridge..... that just happened to be over a set of mountain waterfalls.....That is where the moose plunged to its untimely death. So now how do I ask "How was your day dear?" anything after yesterdayjust sounds ordinary.
Only in Morettiville!
