@work. Ready for 4! Haha.. I'm gonna appreciate the few extra hours on my check next week, but today I'll probably kick myself for taking an extra shift. At least I get to work with some of my favorite coworkers!

Jeremy's coming down this weekend!! Yay!!! We're gonna finish our registering and pack up more of my stuff!

Y'all pray for me. I feel like my mind is a war zone. And it's mostly fighting itself. Bah!!!

Where is everyone?  This is the quietest I've seen this forum since I joined.

In other news:  RealGuitar 2 is great!  Especially with a moderate reverb and a bit of amp.

That beats my breakfast of homemade chili, but not by much.  I'd still take your husband's barbecue over this chili, but the barbecue isn't here.   :sadbounce:

It's a crazy place here this week. :) Okay, it's crazy all the time. But it's MORE crazy this week. ;)

The floor in jail..is just as uncomfortable as the actual bed....

But according to Garfield, the food there is not as bad as they say...

Are we to assume you are in jail?  If so, what happened?  If not, what brings up your previous comment?

Well. Finally convinced my dad to go to the ER. (with a bit of help from our Pastor) This is day 5 he has been so sick.  I'm in McDs parking lot on WiFi. Headed back to the hosp in a few. Mom is with him.

Oh. And I'm sick again. Guess dad gave us his mess. I'm nauseated and had an upset stomach all day too and I haven't had a thing to eat today.
Have you slapped that one dude from Indiana with a pie in the face today?

That's how I am today too. My chest feels tight like I need to cough but no cough comes. And I'm soooo nauseous and my stomach is yuck.

Wow.  I posted some clips from someone else on my FB of our church services... Um.. I always think I'm being VERY expressive but I pretty much have the same expression on my face and am barely moving while praise singing.  And it's that ugly agonizing crying expression, as if I'm not delivered or something.  Dear Jesus, help me.  Also, I don't do my hair big but the little poof I do, doesn't look like I really have done anything.

Thinking analytically outloud today.. LOL  I can chuck my worry of being flamboyant out cause clearly I'm not that demonstrative as I thought.  Hilarious and annoying at the same time.  Bottom line is I don't care when I'm actually up there, but we get chastened for not being aware of how we come across when we're on the platform too.

Yeah. I'm a horrible person. Not really, just a lot of bad choices in my past.

Iowa is a front tag mandatory state. The truck I am buying from my mom has no front mount, they had the tag on with wire. I had the guys at work cut me some wire YESTERDAY and they were going to put the tag on with that and self setting screws so it wouldn't come off. (the bumper has an issue, my step dad ran it into a pole...he forgot to set the brake). SO as some of you know I've been paying for MONTHS and MONTHS to get my DL back. BUT I don't have one, so I take a risk everyday to go to work. I don't drive anywhere but to WORK! Sometimes church, but normally I find a ride or don't go. BUT I got pulled over..and got to spend the night on the floor in the rec room of the county jail, because the jail is full. It's COLD in there! I got what I deserved, driving is a priveledge...and I can't get a work permit unless my DL is revoked..and right now it's just suspended...:(

SO now we are back to square one, I still have a job, but no way to get there....:(

Man. That's terrible. I've been known to look the other way when some of the folks I knew had suspended license were driving if I knew they were just going to work and home. May God send you compassionate officers or close their eyes while you go to work...
And I'm *thinking* of talking to a local police chief friend and see if I can work a few hours a week for his department. We could really use the extra money. If I do, I'll need you guys to really lift me up in prayer. It will be easy for me to slip back into my former police self, which is vastly different and worse than I am now. I'm not crazy about the work, but we've got some debt that I've got to get rid of someway, and this economy and gas and food prices aren't helping. :(

Officer...sir...I was half a mile from work, and the guys I work with were going to come get the truck. The officer said absolutely not because he had already called a tow truck. *sigh*

I didn't cry though...I prayed...a lot...

but I'm crying now..feels like the harder I try..the further away from God I get...

I ain't the most spiritual, but......You know, that's exactly what the devil would have us believe. When we feel like we are far from God, it is easier for us to become less faithful, and to eventually give up and say "what's the use?"

You see, we never see a victory until after a battle and it's impossible to see a view from a mountain top without climbing the mountain first. While I don't know all that you are going through, I can tell you from what I've read that you've posted you've gone through alot. It seems to me that you are someone who really loves God and is trying to make a difference, not just in your own life, but in the lives of others.


People are watching you right now, wanting to see how you will react. Will you crack under the pressure? They are looking for something different, something to help them get through their problems, and if you keep your head up and trust God, you will see Him work things out in ways you would never have imagined. Not only in your life, but the lives of people you love. They will see that what you have received is real and able to change their life.


Don't give up and don't fall away from God. Double down, so to speak, pray harder, fast more, even when it seems impossible to do, and trust God. I know it's easier to say this than live it, but it's something I deal with myself daily. I've watched friends get down and get depressed and basically give up, and now a once strong ministry (their life and testimony), if you will, has fallen. I determined that no matter what, I will trust God, I will depend on Him, and I will not allow the devil to drag me into the depths of depression and the world of pity parties... for me, that was huge.
What am I saying? I don't know, maybe I'm just rambling, but don't give up, stay faithful to God, and TRUST Him. He'll bring you through this. I'm praying for you.

I have to go talk to my pastor tonight....Tomorrow I will try and post what it's about...

GP is really the place I feel like I can say anything...


On a lighter note, YouTube suggested I listen to "Be Still My Soul" by Mindy Gledhill.


Thank you YouTube...I've listened to the song about 5 times...and I don't know if it's helping or hurting...but it's a pretty song...

Well Bird Head, I'm sorry to hear of all your woes.  :( 


Melodya, I would love to just do nothing and get handsomely paid for it and be able to do all the other stuff I need and want to do.


Went to town and got some paint for the stupid handrails at church....Oh, how i hate them....  Been trying to figure out if I was gonna replace them or what.....I wanted something that wouldn't have to be painted and wouldn't rust.....but everything is either more expensive than I want to pay, or incompatible with the setup logistics.....  So I decided to just keep what's there for now and paint them...and oh my lands, I have every minute of it....  It'll be next Christmas before I get done......good grief. 

The concrete guy came by late this evening and took the forms down and was going to saw the slab but his saw wouldn't run so he has to come back again....  They didn't dig the stupid cistern today cause now the cistern guy couldn't deliver it today....  Every other day I was waiting on the excavators to get in gear, the cistern people could have brought it....now that they're ready to dig, the cistern people can't bring it....ugh.  Friday is the plan....unless that changes due to weather...sposed to rain tomorrow...  Probably be digging in mud and water before it's done anyways though, so what diff does it make?  Ugh...hopefully they don't hit water, but highly possible they will. 

I just want the thing done and overwith, I'm tired of messing with it......  And it will be grand to finish getting it plumbed back up then and be able to flush the stool and wash your hands.

I probably have brain damage from paint fumes...

Rustoleum is really not all that bad though...and it's all outdoors and was breezy, so, maybe not...but maybe so...who knows with me. 

I've got enough of it on my hands that at least my hands shouldn't rust anytime soon.  :smirk2:

Mel-Mel said tell her gpers that they did admit her daddy and prayers are appreciated.

Tended fowl.

Took a shower and got most of the paint off of me....mainly stains in the cracks in the skin on my fingers... :smirk2:

Please be careful brother.  I can't know everything about your situation so I'm not saying you shouldn't take it.  But I know first-hand how easy it is to slip back into something you have given up... just please be careful.

Fell asleep around 8 pm. Up at 130 am. I'm roasting and feel so off kilter. I have no idea what's wrong with me. I've been like this for days. If I'm gettin sick let's just do it and get it overwith already.
