Happy Birthday Katie

2010-04-20T18:08:00.001-05:00

Happy Birthday Katie! Today is your 9th birthday and I haven't seen you in almost 3 years. I wonder what you look like now and what you are doing. What is your favorite subject in school? Do you have a crush on any boys? Is your favorite color still pink? Do you remember who I am? I do not know, the answers to any of these.I wish you all the happiness in the world on your birthday. I pray you are

Healthy Banana Smoothie

2010-01-19T19:36:00.000-06:00

10 Ice cubes 1 Frozen (or fresh) Banana Milk ½ tsp Vanilla ¼ C Splenda or Sugar This is a good recipe to use an overripe banana. I had put some in the freezer, which were getting too ripe so they would not spoil before I used them. First get out your blender and set it up. Add the 10 ice cubes to the bottom of the blender. Take your banana out of the freezer. If it still has the skin on,

Blogging is Hard

2009-08-05T21:45:00.000-05:00

Blogging is hard. It is hard to think of things to write each week. I really need to get back onto the blogging waggon. :) I think I will try to write a blog a week, to be posted on Tuesday nights or Wednesday mornings. :)

Israel's Foolish Leader

2008-04-22T20:54:00.008-05:00

If a leader today was to try and pull a stunt like Joshua did in the Bible, the world would surely condemn him as very arrogant and foolish! I mean how can you divide up nations you haven’t even conquered yet? But that is exactly what Joshua did. Joshua’s actions, as recorded in the Bible, would have earned him the title “arrogant fool” if he was a leader in today’s world. In the middle of the

Visiting Old Friends

2008-04-16T23:17:00.008-05:00

This afternoon my husband and I went to visit an old friend and see her new baby. Well, not new anymore, she is 7 months old now. She was such a cute baby, I am happy for her that her first daughter is so healthy. It was also an o.k. time of visiting. You see, my friend is Katie's aunt, the little girl my husband and I took care of for five months last year. you can see the previous post here

Boycott the Olympics in 2008?

2008-04-12T21:44:00.008-05:00

I have heard recently in the news that presidential candidates Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are advocating a United States boycott of the 2008 Olympic games if they Chinese government does not take steps to secure human rights to the Tibetan people and to stop the genocide in Darfur. I am happy to see the candidates taking up the cause for human rights in China. However, why were these

By Chance

"By Chance"Written by me.Sand and petals,of the softest gold.Stars in the darkness,such beauty they hold.Shapes that are perfect,fragrances that entrance,and they say this came to be,by chance?The flowers that bloom,and the birds that sing,I believe that Godmade all of these things.But still they insist,still they believe,these came to be,by chance.They are shown perfect beauty,in the life on

Modesty in Public

2008-03-24T01:05:00.001-05:00

Last week at work, out of the blue two of my coworkers thought it would be fun to rib me about the clothes I was wearing that day. It really surprised me, and confused me at the same time. They teased me for dressing too modestly. It was like the twilight zone. I defended myself by mentioning that I am married, not looking for a guy. They told me in a joking way that "were all mostly girls here"

He Has Risen!

2008-03-23T23:30:00.002-05:00

Luke 24"On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb. They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them. In their fright the women bowed down

OLD CAT NEW TRICKS!?!

2008-03-16T17:25:00.001-05:00

I used to think that a cat could not learn tricks. I mean, they are usually loaners, and like to keep by themselves. Most of the cat I have met, seem to love doing the opposite of what you want them to do. You want them off the counter, so they jump on it. You want them to scratch the scratching post, so they scratch the couch. Ugh! Can anyone out there relate to what I'm writing? They are

Good People

2008-03-02T23:22:00.002-06:00

Do you think you are a good person? Most people, I think would say "Yes". You may give to charity, provide for the kids... and so on. I found online this good person test. It really makesyou think about your definition of "good."

Super Savings Saturday

2008-02-09T00:49:00.000-06:00

I must admit, I did not do the best at saving this week, but it is also my first try! I had a plan all set up at CVS to spend around $10 and receive around 14 ECB's back. But when I got to the store, half the items I wanted to buy were already out of stock! Ugh! I did remember, however, to get a rain check! ;-)Okay, so here were my savings: CVS:2 Colgate Toothpaste + 2 Colgate toothbrushes =$10

Works For Me Wednesday

2008-02-06T11:18:00.000-06:00

This weeks works for me Wednesday is themed "favorite online shops." For this, I would have to say my favorite online shop is half.com. This is a site that lets you buy books way less than retail. Sometimes the books are used, sometimes new. The best think I like about this site is that you can create a wish list of books. I don't always have extra money to spend on books, so I put the ones I

Learning Games

2008-01-27T00:28:00.000-06:00

When my foster daughter was still living with my husband and I, she was in her second semester of Kindergarten and struggling with reading. She had a hard time sounding out words and was frustrated with the idea of trying to read at all. I think she could only read the words, dog, cat and her own first name. Her teacher at the time, gave us "star

What to "do with" Snow?! Part 2

2008-01-25T11:56:00.000-06:00

The picture at right is ice, on the the inside of my bedroom window. Ice! Can you believe it?! If you live in Minnesota, or someplace as cold, I'm sure you can. ;-) However, if you just moved to a cold climate, or have had unusually cold weather this year, this type of thing may have surprised you. As well as many other aspects of snow and ice, and how to deal with them. Last time, I talked a

Works for Me Wednesday

2008-01-22T22:00:00.000-06:00

For this "Works for Me Wednesday" I thought I would share a trick that my sister-in-law taught me. This is a way to store plastic grocery bags. By folding them up, like the picture at left, you can fit a lot more in those grocery bag holders that everyone seems to have now. Also, I have found out it is easier just to pull out the number of bags you need to use, rather than pulling out a whole wad

What to "do with" Snow?! Part 1

2008-01-22T17:26:00.001-06:00

I have met many people lately that have moved to Minnesota, from other warmer states, and as I was clearing snow off my car this morning, I was wondering how many of them know much about "what to do with" snow. So I thought I would share with my readers, a few tips what to do with snow. This is part one, fun things.Today, fun things to do:1. Sledding of course! When sledding, make sure the area

Remembering Last Winter

2008-01-21T13:12:00.000-06:00

Today I was just remembering last winter in MN, the day after Valentine's day, we became legal guardians of Katie. I usually refer to her as our foster daughter, because it is easier for people to understand that, that understand legal guardianship, also what would you call her then, a "guardian daughter"? That just sounds silly. Anyway, she came to live with us in February, 2007, while her

My New Blog

2008-01-21T12:55:00.000-06:00

Hello to everyone reading my blog. I decided to start this blog mainly so I would be able to communicate with those others out there who's blogs I have found helpful over the past few months.
