I Did It!

Finished my first 5K run last Saturday.  36.03 mins was my time.  I am sure that's not impressive if you are a runner...but I was Tickled PINK!  I went to F-I-N-I-S-H and not end up walking~I walked about 50 yards toward the end...I had a leg cramp...LOL  Pulled up my boot straps and went on!  My cousin ran with me.  We were sooooo excited to have accomplished this.  We will run another race in October at a local Fall Festival, it's 2 miles so it should be easy! LOL

I am going to have to find a new computer or take mine to the dr...it's a complete *&^$%#@=
translated to NOT WORKING and PAIN IN BEHIND.  I have so many pics to share and absolutely can't make it work.  AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-that would be me having a complete and utter HiSSyFiT.  Yep. 

Have a wonderful rest of the week...and Labor Day Weekend.  I seem to have things going on but nothing overly exciting.  I need to scoot along...hubby just called and is HUNGRY-need to get his supper warmed up and ready.
 Be Blessed AND Be a Blessing!

No More

Facebook.  I enjoyed it, but it caused so much havoc on my work computer and it has been banned there and I believe has caused trouble on my home computer.  So.  There we have it.  No more. End of Story.  I am sad because I was keeping up with lots of friends and family BUT I honestly got TIRED of all the DRAMA I would read on there.  TMI(too much information) was there.  It didn't start that way, but it seems to be more TMI than not.  I became sick and tired of hearing drama.  I hate drama, in case you wondered. :)
AND I was spending time on there that could certainly be used in other areas. 

I hope all is well with you and yours.  Doing good here.  Running my first 5K tomorrow a.m. and excited about it.  My goal=to finish :) lol

I have so many pics to share....and no way to do so.  I'm beyond frustrated with that whole thing. Have a Blessing filled weekend wherever you are!

Isn't Technology Great?

Yes it is...when it works.  For me lately...that's been a real challenge.  We shall see if I can even finish this post before my computer Crashes...again. 

We had several power surges at our house and it fried my computer...I thought.  It would NOT come up at all, I did finally get it to come up and it was restored to factory defaults.  Not what I wanted, but I thought "at least its working".  Well, that is only partial truth.  It just kicks me out at random.  So this post may or may not be finished. LOL

I am currently taking suggestions for computers.  Laptops.  I mainly use my computer for downloading/storing pics, email and surfing the web at my favorite websites.  Let me know what you have, your likes, dislikes, etc. 

I have not moved away, forbidden myself to blog or anything else...I just seem to be having issues with electronics~I don't really facebook anymore either...that's what brought in the virus to my work computer that had to be WIPED OUT completely and "Ghost" another computer in the office onto mine.  Thank Goodness I didn't have to get a new computer at work.  Not Cool. 

Hope all is well with you and yours.  We are anxiously awaiting school to start--after Labor Day.  STILL NO PICS...yea, I had trouble downloading before...EVEN WORSE now.  Double Not Cool.

Have a blessed day/week...until I post again~Lord only knows when that may be.

Still NO Pictures

Well, we had an AWESOME County Fair despite the RELENTLESS heat & humidity we are having here in the southern part of the Sunflower State...My wonderful pics I would love to share...are still on my camera.  My computer is simply~well lets just say not working.  It tells me every time I try to download my pics that it's full and I've saved pics to disc and deleted some files and it still doesn't work.  I tell ya....if it's not ONE thing...it's about 50 others with me lately. 

I'm proud to say I am the momma to 1 Grand Champion Intermediate Sheep Showman(ZB) who also had  Reserve Champion Natural market lamb; 1 Reserve Champion Junior Sheep Showman(CB) who also had Reserve Champion XBred Market Lamb;  which meant that BOTH of my boys got to go in for the GRAND CHAMPION drive!  I couldn't have been more proud.  I have so much to share and such little time...in the middle of all this...we've torn out my old countertops and I had new ones installed yesterday!!!  Have pics of that to share too...someday :)

I miss all of you and hope to be back in a regular blog routine soon.  Praying God's Blessings to you and yours.

Crazy~Busy

I seem to be having issues---my pics will not download off my camera so I have no new pics to share....again.  Oh well.

Just stopping in to say Hello...I hope I'm not losing any of my followers.  I am literally meeting myself coming and going...we are VERY BUSY with our Livestock Auction....cattle coming off grass now and we are having big sales--which is such a blessing but with hubby still only 3 months post op...the boys and I have been helping out as much as we can to keep him from over-doing it and My f-i-l hurt his back stepping off the tractor last Monday....so he's moving very slow!  Prayers please!  But as a whole....we are GOOD!  Our County Fair starts this coming Thursday so we are on what I call "crunch time"!  Lots to prepare and get ready and we haven't even been home to do it! 
We are so excited for the fair--Our sheep look Great and I'm so excited for my boys. 

I hope all is well with you and yours....I pray God's Blessings to all who stop by and read my blog.  I sure miss my blogger friends-please know that I think of ya'll often even when I'm NOT on the computer...I try to squeeze in some time to read my favorite blogs, I apologize I have not commented lately...once again...not enough time for everything!   

Have a GREAT week!

Jesus Said...

And these signs will accompany those who believe:  In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well.  Mark 16:17-18

I believe the BIBLE, I believe what Jesus said was TRUTH.  Therefore, I will stand BOLDLY against any sickness that comes against me or my family.  I am BELIEVING in the HEALING of my son, NO MORE DIABETES!  After all, Jesus said these signs would accompany those who believe.  I BELIEVE.  Want to join me? 

I am reading/studying a book....The Tongue, A Creative Force by Charles Capps.  It is AWESOME and I highly recommend it...it's a short book, easy read filled with WONDERFUL things.  We as Christians speak things that we don't even realize are negative and against God's word.  Idle words.
We are held accountable for all words, Idle, Meaningful, Good and Bad.  Boo.Hiss. That makes one think huh? :)  God has really been showing me that I MUST change my words. 

Charles says in this book....."If Jesus came to you personally and said, from this day forward it will come to pass, that every thing you say will happen exactly as you say it; would that change your vocabulary?"  For some reason.....THAT grabbed my attention!  Why?  IT IS TRUE?  The Bible says we can have what we say...when we speak, we must release faith in the words we speak from the heart.  We must believe that those things which you are saying will come to pass.  I'm doing that alright...in the physical realm-speaking plenty of negative.  I need to speak in faith in what I WANT to see! 
What we speak comes from the heart-I'm finding my heart is not as full of God's word as it should be.  I will continue to work on that. 
Whatever your situation is...I pray that this will encourage you.  As the body of CHRIST, let us join together and BELIEVE!  We have so much authority and we don't even realize it.  I often wonder what God is thinking....I tend to think it's like this...

When my boys were little, we were so excited for Christmas morn, for them to open their presents.  I can't count the times that they opened it up, pushed the gift to the side and played with the box.  I bet God is thinking the same thing...."I gave them this GREAT gift and they have pushed it to the side...and are playing with the box."

I pray BLESSINGS to all my friends~have a good day and Give Thanks in all circumstances.

Wordless Wednesday



Wordless Wednesday is simply a title
I have trouble posting without words. 
Sometimes.



First day of school
August 2009


Last day of school
May 2010

As you can see
My boys are not big on smiling
They are too busy complaining
About having their picture taken
Again.
Someday
They will be thankful
I just know it!

Have a wonderful day.
It's only as good as
YOU make it.
