A Day For Complaints

Ewwwww, am I ever feisty today and just need to vent a few steamy rants.
  • I hate the dentist. I do not like to have my teeth cleaned, because every six months they find something wrong. It can't be some little cavity, nooooooo, it has to be something major, like an infection or something. Yep, today I received bad news, and on top of it, DJ's wisdom teeth are compacted, so out they need to come! Great visit!
  • The general driving population gets on my nerves. Do you think that the human race could possibly merge into one lane traffic without causing a huge 2 mile long back up? Nope! Why on earth would Middle Tennessee Electric decide that they needed to do repair on eclectic wires during the morning rush hour anyways?
  • Would it kill you to smile while you work? I understand that being a checkout person at the grocery store can be daunting at times, but really, do you think pushing the buggy through your store looking at the overpriced food items is a picnic for us either. For goodness sakes, crack a smile and be cordial and exhibit some good customer service!
  • Could you keep your hands off our stuff? The kids/person that thinks it funny to vandalize our hot wire fence, beware. Really, you better think twice before you touch it again, we are getting ready to boobie trap it. You'll enjoy the ride!
  • You better be able to take what you dish out! Oh my goodness! If you can't handle the heat, you better quit telling it like it is in YOUR book. You are young, inexperienced and basically until you have walked the road of experience, SHUT UP! Take your thumb outta your mouth and quit pouting, life stinks, and when you throw those lemons, be prepared to catch 'em!

Okay, I feel some what better. Geeze, sometimes it is hard to keep your mouth shut all day and not tell people how you feel. Thanks goodness my bloggy friends are here to let me rant!!

The 30 x 5 -100 Challenge!

I have finished the 30 x 5 -100 challenge! Yay! Before you start handing me out the blue ribbon of success, don't.

First, I will have to say, I am proud that once again, I tackled Linda's 30x5 challenge head on like a bull in a china shop, but the first go around I fizzed and the 2nd time, I did start with great gusto, fizzed a little, but finished with a hero's end!

But like Linda says, don't focus on the negative. The positive side is, that I did do, what I did!!

My challenge this time was not the 100 part, I actually did rather well, thanks to the gall bladder surgery and the terrible weekend stomach bug/food poisoning. I lost 7 lbs in three days, and trust me those three days, I was not tempted at all and by ANYTHING with caloric value!

Besides the stomach issues, I really did make good choices. I put thought into what I was eating and skipped somethings that I knew I should not eat. I really thought that this would be the hardest part, but it was really the easiest!

My challenge is actually finding the time to do the exercise, and when I found the time, getting my butt in gear to do it was the issue. I did start walking during this phase and last night, I stopped shy of three miles. My goal is to continue to this each day.

With that being said....thanks Linda! I look forward to your next challenge!

Snakes & Gold Fundraiser For Adoption & Mission Trip

First, the highlight of the day, a snake in the children's lobby!! Picture this...I was sitting at my desk working when Cathy, the lady who cleans, comes running through the office halls hollering for Mike, our Associate Pastor. I am thinking to myself, this must be good! Yep, a little teeny, cutesy snake was sitting there in the corner. So, the ever Mantastically Brave Mike Dugan, strolls on over, in his John Wayne strut, and catches it!

Here's the funny part....April, our Children's Minister.....screaming!! AHAHAHAHAHAHA!! Funny!! Of course she does not think it was funny, but the rest of us did! Oh the fun we have at work!

FUNDRAISER!!!

Okay, here is the deal! April (above) is having a Gold party to help pay for a really quick adoption of a sweet baby boy. Totally a God thing, and you can read about it here @ To Live is to Love . The gold party is on Thursday evening and she gets 10% of what we make for bringing in our old, broken gold. It can be any kind of gold, 10K-18K. I am also trying to wrangle in a few pieces to raise money for my mission trip and in return she makes money for her adoption.

IF you have any thing that would want to part with and donate to me, I will pay your shipping. The bad news is, you will need to mail soon, like tomorrow, so I can get it by Thursday!! Remember my procrastination issue?? Well combine that with the we "thought" we had the stomach bug, but it was food poisoning (yea), and today was the first day I felt well enough to blog!!

All kidding aside, by your donation, you would be helping both of us reach our goal with your gift. If you are interested in helping us my mailing address is

274 Itsmy Lane Woodbury TN 37190. Also if you would shoot me an e-mail to let me know, I would be ever so grateful!!

Thanks so much!!

Stomach Bug, HA! More Like Infestation!

Thursday around 8 pm, Joey informs me that he is not feeling well and he thinks he might get sick. I start going through all the things he ate, thinking that he got into something with milk. He gets sick, and in my mind, it something with milk so that should be that....WRONG!

He gets sick several more times in the next hour and by 10pm he losing it from both ends. Great! By mid-night, I am feeling really bad, and both Hubby and me are throwing up by 4 am Friday morning.

I am here tell y'all this was no little stomach bug, but a complete stomach infestation!! We have been so sick that hubby and I both lost five pounds in 24 hours! I for one, am always looking for a quick fix diet plan, but this was not what I bargained for!

The good news is, as of this morning, all three of us are able to keep food and water down, but we are pretty weak. The bad news is we still have two to go. Hopefully, DJ & Bradley will luck out and make it past this infestation of a terrible stomach bug!!

The Good, The Bad And The Stinky!

THE GOOD


Today is Administrative Assistants Day and lookie I what I got! It is from The Country Gourmet, and it's full of chocolate, coffee and lots of other goodies!! Awwww!! How sweet! I work with the best group of folks, EVER!! Yay!


THE BAD

This man INFURIATES me! If you do not know about this man, or live under a rock and have not heard about the debacle of the Miss USA question that Perez Hilton asked Miss California, aka Carrie Prejean (which by the way is my new hero) about gay marriage, well you are better off not knowing!! (Of course I'm gonna tell you if you do not know!!) Well the question asked by this openly gay man was, what she felt about gay marriage, and she responded with this.

"We live in a land where you can choose same-sex marriage or opposite. And you know what, I think in my country, in my family, I think that I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman. No offense to anybody out there, but that's how I was raised."

All I can say is, bravo!!!!
THE STINKY



Again, my Higgins decided that he would punish me by rolling in horse poo, UGGHHHHH! This must stop and it needs to stop now! I Googled it, wanting to know why my dog rolls in poo and how I stop it, well, thank you Google, but you were absolutely no help.

One site said that dogs roll in poo, because it is a natural instint that comes from their ancestors. Yeah, their ancestors would roll in poo to mask their scent to help aid in hunting their game. Well, the only thing Higgins has to hunt is a nice bowl of Kibbles N Bits from the bag that I provide him!

To my dismay, the only thing I found to break him from it, was to roll in poo myself, to show him how bad I smell.....where does Google find these people???

In 81 Days

In 81 days, or 1,944 hours, or 116,540 minutes or 6,988,400 seconds.....give or take an hour or a few minutes....well you get the just, we will be heading to the Dominican Republic on our mission trip! Yay!

I am so excited, a little anxious and ever so ready. I am so blessed to be sharing this trip with my Hubby and to be there with him sharing ourselves and our faith together is beyond my thought process!! God is good!

Please continue to pray for our up-coming trip, the preparations that we need to make before we leave and of course for our time there.

I have posted this video before, she captures everything I feel and felt while I was there last year...it seems to be my theme song, so I will share it again.

Wow, This Looks Just Like Me, Crabby!

I came across this tonight and I just laughed! This is how I have looked the past couple of days....and it even looks like Higgins peering around the corner!! Ahahahaha!!

I have been crabby and on top of it I have not been home much the past three days due to work and Higgins is missing me. This morning I went in late because I knew that I would be at work until around nine again tonight, and Higgins was so excited that he was playing with me and through his excitement, he bites me. Not intentional and not hard. I yelled at him and he ran to Hubby not knowing what to do. Hubby said he was not used to me yelling at him and it scared him. So when I saw this picture it reminded me of this morning. Poor Higgins!

Anyhoo, one thing leads to another and I start looking at all the Maxine cartoons and of course I am laughing, because, well she is funny! So I thought I would share just a couple of her thoughts on life and stress:
  • The secret to leading a tranquil life is to ignore petty annoyances & save your anger for really serious matters. Like if somebody looks at you funny.
  • To stay relaxed in today's frantic, stressful world, you have to force yourself to stop & put your feet up. I put mine up just high enough to kick the butt of whoever's annoying me.
  • If I had a nickel for everytime I've misplaced my keys, there'd be a jarful of money that I'd also have to look for. (I have lost my office keys one THOUSAND times this week, ALONE!)
  • I work out every day. Mostly frustrations & anger. (Does this count towards my 30 x 5?)
  • All I really want is to be understood. Hence, the yelling.

Trust me, when you can laugh at yourself and recognize your crabbiness, life is good!! The good thing is I have not been crabby to others, it's all inner crabbiness, which is a good thing, for others that is!

Mental And Spiritual Raging War & 30 x 5

Hey guys, it been a pretty busy couple of days for me, both mentally and physically, so first let me go ahead and get my 30 x 5 update out of the way! It was a rough start, the first day was dreary and raining, but I think I did a pretty good job of improvising! I briskly walked through many errands and two different grocery store trips, one being wow-mart. Of course the wow-mart experience was to get something I forgot from the other store. The funny thing was, what I needed was at the very back of the store, so I parked as far as way from the door that was safe enough and powered walked the entire way. Joey was worn out and kept asking me why I was walking so fast and I told him it was a new form of exercise!! It worked, not to sure about it being an entire 30 minute work-out, but it was better than nothing!!

Yesterday was not good for me either! We are doing photo's for a new church directory, and the bad part is we stated taking pictures on a Wednesday (bad, bad). I got to work at 8:00 am and I left work last night at 9:45 pm, so again, no time to really exercise. But on a good side note, I am making healthy choices on the food end, so I feel that is a great accomplishment!!

Okay, for the not so good part, the raging war. I am really struggling mentally and spiritually right now. I know our God is so powerful that he could nip this thing right in the bud with satan, but my human me, is fighting for strength to keep my head above water right now. There is a battle, and my thoughts are not where they have been for the past couple of months and I CANNOT go back to where I was. It was so bad this morning that I woke my Hubby up before I left for work and had to tell him, "please let me tell you something I am thinking, and it's so unchristian of me to be thinking this, but I need to tell someone that will understand". Of course what I sad was so not kind, so I will spare you the details of my conversation with Hubby. The bad thing is I do not want these thoughts to drag me back to my depths of despair, and I refuse to let them! Please be in prayer for me and my terrible family situation. Above all please be in prayer for my Hubby and kids, especially my teenagers. This has been so incredibly hard on them and I worry so much for them. Thanks!!

I'm Taking The Challenge, Again....


First let me explain why the first 30 x 5 challenge was a no go for me. I did actually put in one day! Woo Hoo! I know, sad, but true! But in my defense, I do have a great excuse, it's called my failing gallbladder. It did decide to become non-functioning during this process followed by my gallbladder surgery. During this said time of the 30 x 5 challenge, I could not stand up straight, much less walk a great distance! I do accept the lazy cat award though...he he, too cute!!

But also I am taking the bull by the horns this time, Linda!

Yep, not only did y'all go on without me, but you had to go and rub it my face and add another challenge with "extras"! Now I have to catch up, with an additional task, geeze! Oh well, I'm in, again!!

Paint Is Done & Decorating Ideas Are Needed!

We are done painting! That's a Big WOO to the Hoo!! It was a chore, but it looks so good to me!! Yay! Here are some pictures for ya! I am needing some decorating tips for my walls. All my old decor does not match the new look, so I am going all new. Any ideas?? Also this is phase one of my kitchen re-do, the second phase is paint the cabinets a distressed black.

The first one is when you are walking in from the living room.


Here is from the computer desk looking on.

Walking into the living room
(I just got these today, a great find from the Old Feed Store, an antique place in town!)

Above the refrigerator.

(I used some old stuff I had laying around)

We also painted the laundry room the same color, so any ideas are welcomed here too!

Good Friday, Paint & Tornado's

First let me start by saying, yay, it's Good Friday! What a Mighty Savior we serve, that He died for us on the cross to save our sins!!

So how did we celebrate Good Friday? He had a paint party! Annette, me and Hubby embarked on what turned out to be a roller coaster of a day.

My kitchen is burgundy, decorated kinda of sorta in a Tuscan theme with little cute fat wine guys!! Not anymore, I wanted a drastic change, more of cottage look. After much debate, the color was chosen. A very delicate, almost white, barely blue was the color. So this morning, all excited we start!

Here is one of Annette, trimming away the old color. After a bit, I felt that the blue was just to light and almost white. I really could not see the difference between the white of the molding and this supposed blue that I chose.

Much to my Hubby's dismay, I sent DJ, my oldest, with the other two gallons of paint to town to have them tinted darker. As soon as he was 10 minutes into his trip, my youngest runs in to tell me that there were tornado's on the ground in Murfreesboro, which is where DJ in now on his way too!!

Anxiety panic attack hits! I call him, because he is getting ready to drive through a projected path of the tornado. I have him pull over and wait. Annette, starts to panic because her BreeAnn is missing in action and no where to be found.


Of course the paint party is on hold and major phone calling is underway along with TV watching. Bree is fine and locked in the bathroom at the mall with no way to call out and DJ rode out the tornado and was back on his mission for darker blue paint.

Sadly, three tornado's hit, there has been loss of life and wide spread damage. The news is still coming in. There have been friends of ours affected with their homes being hit. As of right now, Praise God, they are safe with no injuries. Please be in prayer for these storm victims and their families.


We did resume painting and I tried to get a picture of the difference of blues, but my camera would not get the just of it. We will finish tomorrow and I will show picture of the finished product.

My Review Of How Hubby Gained 5 Pounds Since Friday

Y'all all know that I had surgery on Thursday, and I am on the road to recovery and went back to work today. I will say that the doctor was wrong when he said in 3 or 4 days I would be feeling great, because, trust me it has not been that quick! As I do feel so much better than I did before surgery, the recovery is taking a little longer than 4 days!!

My wonderful Hubby has went above and beyond the call of duty when it came to taking care of me and the house while I have been on the slow, crawl, forever mend! He has cleaned the house, washed all the clothes, cleaned the back deck and back porch and even cleaned all the windows! Wow, he has been amazing!! On top of that, he was there at my beck and call at any whine whimper I would make! My pillows were fluffed and my tea was served with pinks straws!! Aww!

So how did he gain 5 pounds in that short time? It seems will all the cleaning, caring and extra chores that he took on, he would of lost 5 pounds, not gained it!

Well, let me say that we have some pretty fantastic people that surround us!! Friday, the first of several meals started appearing on our door steps, and then again on Saturday, another on Sunday afternoon and then 2 more on Sunday evening!! Wow, we are blown away at our wonderful family and church family, they too, went above the wonderful mark of greatness after my surgery!!

Needless to say, Hubby has completely enjoyed all the wonderful, yumminess that has landed in our kitchen! He he!! He is lucky it was only 5 pounds!

Plan Your Epitaph Day

Yes, this is a little morbid, but think about it, wouldn't be great to have everything you have always wanted at your funeral??

So who would of even thought about "plan you epitaph" day?? Who would have even thought of such a topic for a special day? A funeral director, perhaps!? When you stop to think about it, maybe it's better if you go ahead and do it, you never know what deranged relative or friend may put on your tombstone once you're gone. What if this were the best chance they had getting back to you on something that you did to make them mad?

Let's have some fun with it just the same! *Big contrast from yesterday's post, "I Will Survive!

Some of you may not know this, but since I as young I have had a saying picked out for my tombstone. Yep, I have instructed my Hubby to put this on my tombstone, word for word, angel included.

Picture this if you will....I do not want a fancy, humongous headstone. Something small and very beautiful will be fine. I do not want all those yucky flowers engraved on my tombstone, nope not for me. Just a plain little 'ol headstone with my name and all the important dates of course, and Hubby and the Kids may put something sappy on it like mom, best friend...whatever they would like or not, like depending on how I act the last few days! BUT, at the very top, I want a cat with angel wings and this saying engraved on the stone...."God was missing an angel, so He called her home!" Awwww, yep, that has to be on there! I have had this saying picked out for so long, and I will simply not rest in peace if it is not on there! Cute, huh?

Basically, that is as far as I have gotten with my funeral planning, everything else will be fine, except it must be a closed casket. I would like to be buried without shoes on, in something comfy of course. I would really prefer no bra also, but I have instructed Hubby that I do not need the TaTa'a all over the place either, so use good judgement!

On a side note, a double headstone will be fine, and Hubby's side, he can have engraved, "Finally able to rest in peace!" He deserves that after living with me for so long!! HA!

I Will Survive!

I will have to say it's been a tough couple of weeks and a few hard days, but this morning I am almost able to stand up-right! Yay! Fingers crossed, tomorrow will be the day!!

In true fashion, I cried my way into surgery and came out crying, according to Hubby and Joey. No complications and after I woke up and did all the wonderful things that you must do to be released, they indeed, released me. It's been a few uneventful days, lots of naps and plenty of lifetime TV!

Thanks for all the prayers, I appreciate them so much! I am looking forward to getting back to normal and feeling good again....can't wait!

When I listen to this song I think of my gallbladder!! Ahaha!

Thursday, April 2, 2009

Gallbladder & Net Trigger Winner

Today's the day, ugh! I finally made it in to see the surgeon a whole 1/2 early yesterday and miracles never ceasing, there was no wait! After I filled out the paper work, I was whisked into an exam and room and before I could read his diploma on the wall, he was in there! Wow!

My gallbladder only functions at 23% so out it comes. I really like this fella, he even held up a chart to my chest, so I could see where the gallbladder is and exactly where he would be putting the holes in to remove it! Again, wow!

Does that make it any better? Nope, still scared to death, but that's me. After his exam I was taken to another office to schedule the surgery, and she sheepishly smiled and asked is tomorrow good? Trust me, I was frantically scanning my brain for any important to-do's on my list, and could not find any that would justify to my Hubby for saying no, so I reluctantly happily took it. So today, is the day, that I will part with an organ. This has hardly given me anytime to google possible complications and such horror stories that I am so drawn to!

The doctor will be adding the impressive zero's to his portfolio around 1 pm today. I will update you tonight, maybe, good chance it will be tomorrow. If you are on pins and needles, my sis-in-law Jenny, I'm sure will update on her blog, on my traumatic experience. Trust me anytime I am involved in a hospital setting, it's usually tragic, mostly for the staff!

Okay, now for the exciting news of the day, the winner of the Net Trigger giveaway, is.......

Which happens to be......


Congratulations! If you will e-mail me your address (jpdbj at dishmail dot net), I will get this book on it's way to you!

If you were not a happy winner, and do not live in middle Tennessee, go to you local Lifeway store and they will order it for you. Also check out Mark Gregory's website here for more information on his book!
