Where Have I Been?!

Hello. For those of you who have asked where have I been? Well.....here I am. We bought a house this past September 2011,and have been busy with the adjustment of living in a new home that comes with ten acres. No....I'm not bragging, that's just a statement. It's been overwhelming at moments. But wonderful at the same time. Thank you so much for asking about me.....I do appreciate it. That's my cat,Flash....in case you were wondering.
Here are the pumpkins my three children craved on their own,this past October.
The view from my upstairs deck.
My 11 year old daughter made this cake on New Years Eve. That's an explanation mark after the 2012.....if you were wondering.
A picture from one of my magazines.....I'm trying to get inspired for updating my new home.
My 11 year old daughter made these pretzels the other day. She loves to bake and cook. Yes....I do cook and bake too...ha,ha,ha....
Yes.....the last six months have been busy, physically and emotionally exhausting. I do realize that I'm not the only person to buy a house and move. But I'm probably the only one to quit blogging,ha,ha,ha.....no seriously.....I quit blogging because I realized, that I had quit journal writing. Which is a big no,no for me. So I stopped blogging. I knew I needed to find a balance between my blogging and journal writing. What I write in my journals is way more important than what I could ever blog to the world. Because my journals are for my posterity to read. Those future individuals are very important to me,and I want them to know my thoughts about everything that I think and feel. Yet.....here I am. I hope to blog this year,and keep a balance on bogging and writing at home, and also not let my emotions get the better of me. It's so easy to get down and feel that no one reads,or cares about what I have to say. When that is never the truth. I hope that I keep things in perspective, that it doesn't matter what I feel. What matters,is getting the word out. Whatever it is that God wants me to get out.... So here I am.....and Hello 2012!!

The Republic HasTruly Fallen! - Alex Jones Tv 1/3


Luke 12:54-59 And he (Jesus) said also to the people, When ye see a cloud rise out of the west,
straightway ye say, There cometh a shower; and so it is. And when ye see the south wind blow,ye,say, There will be heat; and it cometh to pass. Ye hypocrites,ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth;but how is it that ye do not discern this time? Yea,and why even of yourselves judge ye not what is right? When thou goest with thine adversary to the magistrate,as thou art in the way,give diligence that thou mayest be delivered from him; lest he hale thee to the judge,and the judge deliver thee to the officer,and the officer cast thee into prison. I tell thee,thou shalt not depart thence,till thou hast paid the very last mite.

Everyday living has kept me too busy from blogging,but I'm still here,and paying attention to the news. I felt compelled by the Holy Ghost to post the video and bible verses today. Let us all continue to pray that all of America wakes up, and takes our government back for the people,by the people. There is hope in the Lord,and He is in control of His world. Lest we forget.

First Rose of the Summer


This is just so exciting for me....to see the first rose bloom of the summer season! My husband bought this rose bush for me a couple of months ago,and I can't remember the exact name. Is it a hybrid tea rose? Whatever it is, it smells divine. I have a couple of books on roses to read,and have been on you tube. Watching videos on how to prune summer roses. Hope you enjoy your week-end doing whatever it is you like to do....see ya next time.

Fishing Lures and Fondant Roses





My twelve year old son is an avid fisherman. He recently decided to create his own fishing lures. He carves, sands, paints,applies hooks, and lips for lures all by hand, with no help from dad or me.
Here's what he has made so far,and yes they work. He's been catching bass out of the pond.




10 year old Rosy Posy has taught herself how to make fondant,and create roses out of the fondant. No kidding! She got on you tube and looked it up.
My kids never cease to amaze me! Let me tell you. I'm always running around worrying if everyone is learning enough,and nagging everyone to death, about how much computer, and x-box time they spend wasting away....lol....with creative people like this. Worrying be gone!

Baby Geese Growing Fast!


Hey there. I know....long time...and no blogging...huh?! I thought doing a lighthearted post would help me ease back into the blogging mode. Here are the baby geese we got at the beginning of April.

Look at those honkers! So sassy! In a few weeks they'll be ready to live on the pond. See ya next time...much sooner.

Strangeness of Lady Gaga

Hi. I know, where have I been? Nothing major going on, just living day to day. Several times I've wanted to post on the subject of Lady Gaga. Like when she was carried in an egg at the Grammys,and incubated inside it for three hours before she performed Born this Way! She said she needed the time to," transform". Transform into what?! I did quite a bit of occult research on that little diddy,but it was taking so long that I ended up putting my notes aside,and decided to leave the whole business of her craziness alone!( sigh...catching my breath!) Basically what I found out was that the egg in theosophy symbolizes not only rebirth. Which is kind of a no brainier for most of us. But more importantly, transformation. Which is interesting,because that's exactly what she said she needed to do before performing the song. Also when Lady Gaga emerges out of the egg,and on to the stage. You notice that her shoulders are pointy and that they are meant to look like flesh,apart of her body. Yes, I know it was just cosmetic make up. But what was/is the message that she is trying to convey to us the unsuspecting public through this song. Yes. I get the surface level meaning of the song. Which is about being born homosexual and that one must except it. Yet..... there is a deeper meaning than just singing about being born gay. On Vigilant Citizen there is a very interesting, well researched article on the song Born This Way. The very same subject matter that I was trying to research on my own a few weeks ago. Only much more cohesive,and well written. Than anything I could have done. You really need to give this subject matter the time of day. I know a lot of people want to just pooh,pooh her,and call it,"show business". I know many Christians want to latch on to the message of being," born gay",and only preach on that. When in reality we need to be looking deeper,and have a clear understanding about what kind of transformation she is singing about. What she is really singing about is transforming the way we think about everything. To blur the lines between good and evil. Just for example. Secular culture over the last 60 years have taught people to only have one or two children. To even voluntarily,"fix" themselves from having anymore kids. This started out with people who didn't follow Christ's teachings,but over the years this way of thinking has invaded the church. Today if you have more than three or four children(which is usually considered a big family by today's standards), and you go to church,and decide to have more children. I guarantee you,someone in your church will question you as to why you would want more kids. As if the idea is slightly amusing,or act like you're a nut case. Or even shake their heads in dismay. As if you've done something wrong. When of all people. They should be the ones rejoicing with you,about the prospects of a new living soul that could come to know Christ,and enlarge the kingdom of God. Any way......that's not what this post is about. What I'm trying to point out is how easy it is for Satan to influence us who call ourselves Christians. Without evening knowing it. Satan wants to blur the way you think about family, church, work.....life in general. So that we can not hear the Holy Spirit clearly when He speaks to us through the Word of God (Bible). I don't know about you,but when my kids ask me questions about the weirdness of Lady Gaga. I want to be able to give them a well informed answer for the weirdness. Not just a generic,"Well you see kids, Satan is using her. It's evil. So don't listen to her!" That's just not a good enough answer for kids who are ten and older. It's too easy for them to compromise their values and say that it's just a song.( which is what my example was all about,how easy it is to compromise) The next generation needs/deserves to know what kind of principalities we fight. Well......If you made it this far reading,then I'm very impressed!! I know. I tend to get too wordy when I get on my little soap box....sorry for that. I can't seem to change that part of myself. But if you believe we are in a Spiritual battle then head over to Vigilant Citizen and read the article. Thanks for stopping by.

Smoke Screens

I just spent most of this afternoon trying to write a post about the John Galliano scandal and the hypocrisy of it all. Anyone who writes about anything in this world, knows that careful research must be done.....will understand the frustration when the computer crashes, losing entry and all research.......ARGHHHH.......(pulling on hair). When I restarted my computer it hit me with what I needed to write about. Which wasn't about John Galliano,or Charlie Sheen,or any other fallen star. But instead to remind you, and myself that these are smoke screens. To keep us distracted from what's really going on. We've got a mid-east crisis like no other at the moment. Oil prices are climbing, the dollar is being devalued. People...... With that being said.....get your houses in order,take care of your families, have a storage pantry. Us Americans used to can food,stock up on extras for that possible emergency. We need to get back to basics....don't fall for the smoke screens called Hollywood, and Paris Fashion Week.......
