I am not a Feminist at all!!!

You Are 0% Feminist

You are definitely not a feminist. In fact, you are every feminist's worst nightmare. You believe that women belong in the kitchen.... barefoot and pregnant.

Are You a Feminist?

Wow that is crazy, but I agree I am against feminism in all areas.

It has been so busy lately!!!!

As always the month of December is so busy. We had so much to do from shopping, cooking, cleaning and of course spending time with family. We had a wonderful Christmas and 3 whole days spent with my husband without him having to work. Which reminds me there is a chance that he will get a promotion and we may have to move out of state. That will be difficult since I have lived in Georgia all my life. Well I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year. May God bless everyone.

God had his hand on us!!!!

I just want to share that last Friday the kids and I were own our way the the grocery store driving down the road and for some reason I looked down at the speedometer and as I looked up there was a car in front of us stopped. I came inches of hitting this car but swerved off the side of the road and made it around the car. As I drove by the place today, I do not see how we came out of that without being in an accident, but I do know God had his angels protecting us. The place where we swerved was nothing more than a foot of flat land and then a steep cliff. Thank you God for your protection and covering over my children and I.

Struggle

The past few weeks have been so hard and this song is such a blessing.

Getting ready for Thanksgiving!!!

As everyone is getting ready for Thanksgiving, I hope you remember and are grateful for what you have. There is a family in my church who one year ago lost there 4 year old daughter to kidney failure. It was exactly one year today that I was hospitalized, because my fallopian tube busted and I was internally bleeding. I almost died on the table but God gave me another chance at last. Yesterday my cousin's son Nathaniel would have been 8 but he passed away unexpectedly on May 9, 2001 at the young age of 18 months. It was the worse day of mine and my families life. I got to watch that sweet boy enter the world. He was 8 weeks early and weighed 4 pounds and 9 ounces and was 16 inches long. He was doing so well but his immune system was weak and he got any kind of virus that went around. He seemed so healthy the few weeks before it happened in fact 2 weeks earlier at a family Easter gathering he was running around without having an asthma attack. But we know he is in heaven and probably playing with my 3 babies up there.
The good news though is Nathaniel's mommy(Felicia) found out she was pregnant yesterday. She has Austin(11) and after Nathaniel was born Her husband got a vasectomy. She got a divorce because her ex husband was physically and emotionally abusive. Now she is happily remarried to a very nice Christian man and treats her like a queen. I am so happy for her and I hope that things will work out.
On another note my dear sweet husband is helping me cook. We are doing 2 turkeys this year. He is the best. Today I cooked lentil soup which I got from Sara Snow. It was delicious and the kids loved it!!! I hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving!!!! (This is the Christmas picture from last year. I will post the new one once it is taken).

My sweet Hannah

My Hannah is 8 and she wants to be a gospel singer.

Cleaning out clutter!!!

I have been so busy cleaning out clutter. My basement is horrific. There is so much stuff in this house it is ridiculous. We are having a yard sale tomorrow and I would love to get rid of 75% of our stuff. Some of you may think that is a lot but if you only seen how much we had, you would agree. Plus we need the extra cash for Christmas. Well I hope everyone has a great weekend.

Car shopping

I spent all day yesterday car shopping. We almost bought a 2001 Dodge Dakota truck, but it was going to be $400 for 51 months. The thought of that made me sick. That is over 4 years of paying on a vehicle that is not even new not to mention in the end we will be paying double what it is worth. Yuck!!! After a long frustrating day, My husband's assistant Manager said that he would sell us his car and let us make payments to him until Feb. when my husband gets a bonus. That is so much more relieving. This has just been a frustrating week with a lot of financial situations. Anyone reading this please pray for our family!!!

Frugal Friday!!!

Today has been a super day. I went to Kroger and got 2 gallons of organic milk for $2.99 each(reg $5.99) and Yo Baby yogurt for Haley for $1.29(reg $3.69). At Food Lion I got 8 bags of organic carrots for $.49 each (reg $2.69). We then went to k-mart and got 3 flower pots for $.70(regular $6.99 each) and one for $1.00(regular $9.99). So we got a lot of good deals. My honey is back home and we have had s good day together because he is rarely off.

It is still raining!!!

Can you believe it is still raining? Well that is a good thing except for the fact when it rains I get tired. I don't know what it is about rain that makes me so sleepy. I could sleep all day if I was able to. Anyways, the kids and I went and ate Japanese today. It is about 30 minutes away but it is worth it. We all 4 ate under $20. Their chicken is $5.95 each. Hannah and I shared a plate and Bryson and Haley shared. We ordered water to drink, so with the tip is was $18. Anyone who loves Japanese knows that if you go during dinner time you can pay $17-$25 a plate, so we got a good deal. While we were in town we went to the Whole Foods store, where I picked up some organic produce that was on sale. I also got Bryson some vitamins to help him focus, plus some dha for all three of the kids. We had a great day, but tonight it will be lonely without my man here. Well I am going to catch up on laundry. By the way the picture of the bookshelf is of all our schoolbooks(except Hannah's her books are in her desk) and my cookbooks. I was in desperation for one and found one at a resale shop. We had schoolbooks everywhere. Our Reading books are in the basement and the shelf is double the size of this one. I love it so much. I am proud of it and thought I would show it off.
