Vacations

It's been a week since we got back from out cruise to the Caribbean but it was a blast. Georgina and I had a blast even though Clay could not convince us to go down the slide. I refused on the grounds I had already done it and lost my top in the process and there was no way I was going to let that happen again. It was fun getting dressed every night for dinner and having lots of fun with all the different activities you can do. We took loads of pictures and had fun swimming with dolphins in Cozumel, Mexico. Georgina got to buy a sombrero and she was happy she got it in purple. This time I didn't really buy anything from Cozumel seeing as I have been there six times. But every time I go I remember the first time I went and how excited I was. So for me going to Cozumel now is like going home. Getting on a cruise ship is like going home. A home I miss from time to time but always like coming back to when I get a chance. Carnival Cruise Line is definitely a great line to be on with all the activities for all age groups and just the plan fun of it.

I had some time to see and write and think about where my story was going as well and come up with another book idea and where the plots and ideas for that book was going. So I have a definite creative outlet here and I think I am going to take advantage of it. Things are slowly getting back to normal now that I am home. Clay's mother went in for surgery and didn't tell anyone now we are worried about her. My dad loved his father's day gift so that was good to know my husband knows what my father likes when I have run out of ideas. My mom is only talking to me when she thinks I have something to talk about and so we don't talk much lately. Letha is seeing a a new guy, don't know much about him. Wayne is waiting on Diane to come or she might be here already and I don't know about it with all that is going on with me. I went and saw the Transformers movie Rise of the Fallen and loved it. My dad and I took Georgina and Marina with us when we went. We did not all get to sit together but it was alright seeing as how it was a great movie. The place was packed but it was all great just the same. I am watching a new series on HBO called TrueBlood and it is weird but I actually like it.

Now I am waiting for Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince to come out and New Moon of the Twilight series to come out as well. I think as far as movies go my year of movies is almost done. Carsten Norgaard is working in South Africa on a pilot for a German show and I hope he is alright. Since there are no updates to his fan site it is hard to tell if he is alright. I am listening to a new recording artist that a friend in Los Angelos told me about. Her name is Vaja and she is awesome. I wonder why she doesn't get more exposure on the radio? She has some real talent and she needs to be recognized and appreciated. I got her album a few days ago and I simply love it.

I am getting ready to go to Las Vegas in July, and you know the heat is going to be 100+ and I am going to just try and stay inside most of the day and only come out at night. Sounds like a vampire move I know. But in the desert in July is not where I want to be. But because I booked my trip last month they gave me tickets to see KA a Cirque show that they say is awesome. It's going to be a short trip seeing as how things are so crazy around here. I am taking my grandmother out there for what she says will be her last trip out there, we will see if that is true. Me I am going out there for the shows, I am not much of a gambler. But I will get to see Hover damn seeing as how my dad will be going with us. Of all the times I have been to Vegas this will be the first time I see the Damn.

Well I better sign off for now, I will try to keep up with my entries better in the future.

Ciao!

Time Flys

It funny how much time has flown and I need to start keeping better tabs on my entries. It has been awhile. Now I am one day away from my 4 year anniversary and I am hoping to spend that time with my husband and reflect on the last 4 years and make plans for the future. But at the same time I also have to thank the Lord up above. For his patience and understanding and I know at times he could have been more my center. I will strive to make things right with him, for he alone knows me better than I know myself. I am wanting to start a family and I am hoping that this next year will be my time to begin this new journey of life with my husband. God please be with us both and help us get on the path that we need to be on and be with us as we try to start a family.

New Year and Hopefully New Start.....

Well another year has come and gone. What can I say, I can't believe it another year gone by and I am wondering why it is flying so fast. I guess it's true, time flies when you are having fun. I am hoping this is the year Clay and I are blessed with a child. I have wanted one for so long and I am hoping with the help of the doctors I will be able to have a child soon. I am trying now to get in the best shape so that I won't have any problems when I do get pregnant. Strange how some people don't have to worry about getting pregnant where others like myself have to get help. I sometimes go in the stores and see women that are pregnant and my heart just drops. The yearning in my heart to have one of my own is so strong and I don't know what to do. I don't envy the women I see, if anything I am always happy to hear about someone having a baby but at the same time I worry about whether or not I will be able to have one. We just have to wait and see what happens. Pray for us and hope the God will allow us to have a child. Well till next time.

Holidays......

Well Thanksgiving was nice, I had my mother and father and stepfather all in the same room and we all managed to get along. There were times when I felt like strangling someone but luckily my husband came to the rescue. Lucky for my family that is. My baby niece was hospitalized 2 days before Thanksgiving at Cooks Children Hospital in Fort Worth, so away I went to check on her. She was released on Thanksgiving morning and is doing well. I had 11 people for dinner Thanksgiving day and was very Thankful for all those who came. There were usual cold shoulder to some and others just didn't care. Clay had the whole week off, so he along with my darling niece Marina helped me get ready for all who would attend.

Now it is getting closer to Christmas, and as well as it gets cold, I am really starting to feel the pressure of doing the Christmas party all over again. Last year wasn't too bad but I am expected to have more this year. I haven't been in the mood to do much of anything. But slowly but surely I am getting into the spirit of Christmas. While Clay has already started his holiday shopping I have yet to begin. Well I will get around to it soon enough but for now I don't really feel like getting out of bed. I have been sick and have been seeing doctors. (This is for my sisters, NO I am not pregnant YET) They are working to help me to get to that though. Doctors, doctors and more doctors, man am I getting sick of it. I have to go for blood work like every other week, I wish they would hurry up and tell me what's wrong with me. Man I wish I was pregnant right now.

God willing, I will get pregnant this new year!

Lots of Love for now!

New Home and New Life

This last year has been awesome. Clay and I bought a house together. No longer living with the In-Laws anymore. We have an awesome 4 bedroom 2.5 bath house, and that's not the best part. The best part is we own it out right. No mortgage payments and loans! We even bought two new vehicles in cash this year as well. We have waited so long and now things are finally clicking for us. Clay is still working as a chemical engineer. I am currently in the process of my writing and have been quite busy with it as well. Last year I was able to host my own Thanksgiving and it looks like I will be hosting again this year in just a few short days. Things are moving right along and my current obsession is my book "Destiny of Stars"! The plots keep thickening and the characters at time catch me off guard. I am also reading a lot more than I have in the past and have picked up a few new authors. The next step for us is hopefully a baby, we are hoping to have one in the next couple of years. I can't believe it, but we have been married for almost 3.5 years. It seems just like yesterday I was getting married. Even though we have are arguments we still feel very much like newly weds. Well I got to cut this short, but I will be doing weekly if not daily entries. Take care until next time.

P.S. Twilight and Quantum of Solace we awesome movies I saw this weekend!

This is our new house!

My Other Half............

With every day that goes by I am lucky to have found that one person who I love more than anything or anyone in this world. God gave me a very special person, a person I hope to grow old with and share all life's special events with. God gave me a man I see as the one I was destined to be with, my true love, a love I can't think of being without. Yes, God gave me my husband who is my best friend and lover. A man I will have children with and share a lifetime of dreams and special memories. Posting that Ad on Yahoo might have been a dare but now I believe there was a true purpose behind that dare and it served me well. I never would of thought it would bring me that happiness I so desperately wanted and craved. Clay is everything in my world and I have and will continue to thank the good Lord for all that he has blessed me with and that being my wonderful husband who has shown me what true love really is. I now pray that one day I will be able to give him a loving family that we will bring in this world and I will strive to one day make him proud of me and show him how much I love him and what he really means to me. He means everything to me and I will never stop loving this man who just when I think about him makes me smile. Clay is my true soul mate! I LOVE YOU CLAY aka "Dusty"!!!!

Frustration......

Frustration is definetly the key word for today. I am in Houston spending time with my grandmother and I am finding it hard. What with the phone call I got last night from Clay or the events unfolding here at her house. Ricky got into a car accident and demanded that grandma and I go and pick up his car to have a assessment done on it. Now he is getting calls from Roy on what to do about fixing the damage and in the processes pissing me off because he wants to talk in the room that I have been sleeping in and now he decides to smoke in it. Not to mention that on sunday ricky and I got into a fight about him drinking and driving and to top it all grandma sided with him. When she knows as I know that if Ricky gets pulled over and is found with a open beer can in his car that he could be arrested for drinking and driving and believe it or not there were police out because of the holiday weekend. NO one ever listens to me around here and it is just frustrating. They still see me as this little girl and I am about to be 26 years old. What the hell have I gotten myself into! Sometimes I think that Ricky needs to learn to grow up, because he is just on the fence. The real world is hard and I myself am finding it hard to live now. Especially with my husband who also needs to grow up. He thinks that living with his parents for the rest of our lives is a good idea. But the problem is he doesn't want to grow up and take the actions he needs to. I am having serious doubts about having children with him right now. I don't want to be living with my In-laws and having to not only take care of them but my nieces because his sister like him won't grow up. Then have to take care of my own children. This is where I see everything as unfair and I think that he needs to take a stand against it and work with me on this. We will be receiving money and I was hoping he would infact be more willing to buy a house of our own. But now I see that he is more than willing to stay at home and for me that is not acceptable at this time or anytime. I am going into the second year of marriage with him and we have thus far lived with his parents and I am now tired of it. I am tired of having to care for his nieces when his mother is the one that volunteers but I get stuck with them anyways because she goes shopping or whatever else she does. I am tired of not beable to go anywhere I want in a house I am suppose to live in. I am tired of being the one who has to tell Clay that this is not working it maybe working for him but it is not working for me.

Homes, loans, and money oh MY!!!!!

Well for those of you who don't know my husband's parents and I have all been living together for the last almost 2 years. Things have been going fine, but recently things just got better. We have been looking for houses for 2 years and this year we have found the perfect house. We are all so eager to get it and everything. It is awesome, it has 9 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, 2 living rooms, kitchen, formal dining room, 2 car garage, in ground pool, basketball court, shuffle board area, 2 fireplaces, and a brick bar-b-que pit near the pool. It even has a 8ft. wall surrounding the backyard. It truly is the house of my dreams, and the best part is we will have it paid of by the end of the year. So all we will have to pay is the taxes on it. Clay and I will be able to raise our children in this house and have all that we want. It truly is a dream come true. God has truly blessed us and we are truly thankful for it all. So I have been reallly busy with helping the family out with all sorts of stuff having to do with the house. My mother-in-law is so excited about this house she can hardly stay calm. Well that is it for now, I will keep you call posted on it.

Ciao,

Furniture oh my!!!

Well for those who don't know my husband's grandfather died in late December of last year. So things have been kind of crazy ever since. This has left the family in some what of a tiff over his assets and the money from his beach front property in Florida. It turned out that he had a will and that the items in the house were to be divided between Clay's mother and her brother. So we just recently got the furniture from Florida and boy is it something. The man had wonderful taste when it came to art. His furniture is amazing and since we are looking for a home now the furniture will be coming in handy, at least that is what his mother said to me this week. Thanks to his grandfather we will be able to buy a house this year, and not just any house but the house of our dreams. So we have been looking at 5 and 6 bedroom houses with in ground pools on at least an acre of land or more. We have found a few but nothing we have truly fell in love with. But we remain hopeful. I have been spending most of my time at the storage unit doing inventory of all the furniture for my mother-in-law and we have been looking at houses too. We are going to look at another possible house later today. I hope we find something soon, because I can't spend another summer without Air conditioning! I need it in the worse way, I will go absolutely crazy without it. As for Clay he doesn't care where we move as long as we can be happy there. But I tell you this when you look at all this furniture it makes you think the man lived in a museum some of this stuff is soooooo old. Well I guess I better be off to bed, I will be getting up in a few hours to clean out the shed and moving anything we don't need to the storage unit!

Judgement Calls................

There is always someone who is going to judge you no matter what. Whether it is a family member, a friend, or a co-worker. I have found that no matter where you go and who you meet there is always someone who will judge based on someone they have heard like rumor or a simple comment you said that was taken out of context. Either way life is always full of judgment calls. Which is why I am always wondering what gives people the right to judge anyone.

My dad in Houston and I were talking today about just that very subject. How a man of the cloth can go around and judge someone they have never met. The whole discussion was brought up when he made a comment about possibly marrying a woman he had fell in love with from another country. I was always under the impression that men of the cloth were ones who should be open-minded and encouraging with regards to people and there lives. But I find myself rather disappointed with the outcome of the conversation and with his actions in general over the years. It makes me feel bad for my dad who is so excited about getting married and at the same time ashamed for the man who preaches from the word of god and then acts like judge and jury to his peers.

Times have changed and we have to change with them. This man who claims to be a counselor in the name of God and then when asked for advice by a fellow peer, then goes and tells his wife about what he and this person talked about. I always thought that what was discussed by preacher and church member in private should stay within the confidence of both parties. But how else does the gossip mongers get their gossip from anyways. I would think God would be pretty disappointed in that aspect of a mans character. I also thinks its wrong that a man can tell people how to live their lives when if you look at his own family and don't necessary find that his own family lives by what he preaches. So I do ask you now, who is the one who should be judging who? Who gives anyone the right to judge anyone? What right do we have to judge anyone? I will tell you this we don't have the right to judge anyone. It is not our place and we don't have the right to tell anyone how to live their lives either. We can advise them and help them in any way we can but we don't have the right to run their lives. The choices we make in this life our ones we have to live with not the people who are tell us how to live our lives, so in the end we are responsible for what happens. I just hope with the guidance of God I make the right choices and ones I know I can live with. Because in the end we do have to live with those choices.

Dreams

Dreams are something, in how the sub-conscience comes to the top of the brain and makes you think some of the weirded stuff. I had a dream I was struggling with someone holding a gun at me, and get this he fired the gun and it did not phase me. It was like I was not affected because before the gun went off all I could think about was "God please help me" and then I was amazed at how quickly he helped me. Knowing that could be possible has I think woken me up to my faith in God again. I have always had faith that there was a god but I tend to wonder away from him. The dream was something that scared me and made me realize he is trying to make me aware of his presence at the same time. You gotta love him for that. Some of my dreams have been violate of late and then they turn all most pleasant in the end. Like a really bad movie or something. But now I am starting to wonder about all those dreams and whether or not I should fear them, or acknowledge them for what they represent and hope I got the right interpertation. I sometimes wonder how it is that I am able to remember my dreams so well. The strange thing was this happened on get this the birth of Jesus Christ. I am beginning to think this is fate!

Thanksgiving around the corner!!!!

Well Clay and I are planning to go to Houston to spend time with my grandparents. He knows how close I am to them and how much I miss them when I am not with them. It sucks that I have to be so far away but I can not live in Houston. He knows this and understands it as much as my grandparents do. But I don't know if Ricky understands it. He thinks I should be down there, it was different when he was in prison, but now that he is living with my grandparents he is like "you need to be here"! What am I suppose to say to that! I sometimes forget that Ricky is not as mature for his age as he would be if he had not gone to prison. When he went in he was only 18 and I don't think he has ever left that mentality! As for me I am planning lunch/dinner with my grandmother and seeing which can out best the other. I know that my grandmother is going to win, due to all her past experience but I can make a mean potato casserole. I am also incharge of desserts, my grandfather loves my desserts because I make them so he can eat them even though he is a diabetic. Well lunch time is over I guess I better get back to work.

Thinking of Carsten Norgaard as the day goes by!!!!!!

Thank Goodness its Friday!

It's Friday and I made it through another week of work! I am so happy I just realized I have been working for a month here and I love coming to work I just hate getting up that early! Letha is still having boy problems and I have noticed that I am getting moodier and moodier with each day that goes by and my poor husband I think tonight I am going to make it up to him! He is going to be so surprised I wonder what I could do. HMMMM, I know wash the dishes and put up the laundry that is clean and clean up the house in general. Then he won't think I am that lazy and I really need to do it anyway it was starting to get on my every last nerve! But what can I say I have been sick of late and my co-workers have been driving me nuts! So there it is in a nut shell, I was lazy and just did not want to do anything and its not like my husband will do the housework please he thinks that is woman's work. He needs to realize that when he dirtys a dish to clean it up but I have not got him that well trained yet. He is still a working progess! But I love him just the way he is and would not change him for anything. He is an awesome husband despite his many faults and I am not perfect either and yet we still communicate and try to get along. We make a great pair, knowing that no one else would want us but each other. But what he does not know is that there is someone waiting for me, someone who has been waiting a long time and will continue to wait since I am so happy! I think this person thinks that I will eventually get tired of Clay and turn to him, but that is not the case! I love,love, love Clay with all of my might and no one is getting rid of me! We I believe are what they call soul mates!

Well I got to go, Ciao!

Letha troubles.........

If life aint just a kick in the butt! My dear and loving sister has more boy problems then any Hollywood Celebrity there is on this planet. She is so crazy for attention it is so crazy. I don't know what to do about her and now the problems are getting out of hand. Brian and will use his last name as well Gillespie thats right Brian Gillespie is the problem. He changed Letha's voicemail message last night to say she was out and that she was probably sleeping with some guy and for whoever to leave a message and that Letha might decide to get back to them if she could remember who they were. Well this had Letha in tears and calling me. What was I suppose to do about it. I was at home trying to get ready to go to bed when the call came in from Letha and she was asking why he was trying to do this to her. I told her I did not know and I could not do anything about it unless she gave me his phone number. I could not believe that she would not let me handle it, instead she said it was something that she needed to do herself. It looks to me that she is not handling it very well. What was I suppose to do? The answer is simply nothing. Nothing is exactly what I am going to be doing. I did not get myself in this predicament so she can get herself out of.

In my opinion I think she needs to be more focused on her school work but I don't think that is what she is doing instead she is more focused on Dustin and Brian to concentrate on school. You would think with the fact that my mom is threatening her on a weekly basis that she would be more focused. Just think if Letha does not complete this semester with good grades she is out of Lamar and that could mean the end of freedom. She might just be in a lot of trouble! I just hope I am not around to see the fireworks!

Well I got go this will be continued later tonight!

Ciao!

P.S. I am so sick to my stomache, I wonder could I be pregnant?????????? Just think that would be some lousy timing seeing as I just started working again!

Aftermath of Halloween 2006!

Well my nieces Georgina and Marina had a ball going and Trick or Treating. When they came back the were exhausted and had bucket fulls of candy. I was the first one to start digging into their lout! It was fun though because what they did not expect was for me to get them with silly string the second they came up the steps of the porch! I got them and earlier I had gotten Dusty, and all her could do was sit there and take it. Knowing ofcourse that he would get me back! He just smiled and let me have my fun because sooner or later the gag is going to be on me it always it. We had fun and had a good supper and dessert before everyone went to bed, pretty happy with how the night had gone.

On another note, I talked to Letha this morning and she was glad to hear from me, she said things were tough with her and Dustin and she did not know where she stood with him and that Brian was driving her crazy because he knows about Dustin. From the way she was sounding it looks like she is finally over Brian and for once I am so glad to hear that. But she is completely in love with Dustin and she does not know what to do about him. I told her to just let him do his thing for now and eventually he will come around. I think for once she might actually take my advice. She also told me that Lanay was getting married sometime in the near future, I don't remember when since I did not really care. It's not like we get invited to anything that Tina plans for her kids even though we grew up with them and were friends for years with them. It just burns me how that woman can see if she can get invited to our events but not invite us to hers. Oh well so goes life!

Talked to my grandmother and she is very upset with Ricky, I don't know what to think about it either. He has this new girlfriend that my grandmother can't stand. I thought it was because my grandmother doesn't like anyone around her baby boy, but the fact is the girl is up to no good and Ricky can't see but my grandmother sure can. I tried talking to him about it when he had his car stolen, but now I don't know what has happened. I just know that Ricky might be getting in way over his head and there is nothing he can do. I might have to have another talk with him and get his side of the story. Again I am playing referee to my grandmother and Ricky, BIG SURPRISE! I always do so that not fair. I think someone else should do it but I seemed to be the only one the both trust and come to when they need help. I guess it is just something that I going to have to deal with on my own.

Well I gotta go while I still have time on my lunch break to see about getting my pre-order in for Laurell K. Hamilton's new Merry Gentry Novel "Mistral's Kiss" while I still can!

Till we meet again, Ciao!

Halloween Time

Yes, its that time of year again and this year we are going all out like never before. We have really decorated this year. With stuffed ghosts in the trees and lighten pumpkins and the whole sha-bang! Its what I could call going all out! I have found one of my old costumes that I wore I don't know 7-8 years ago and decided it was time to throw it back on and my nieces just adore it they want to wear it! Funny how things like that work a costume I might of paid $20 for is still around and this year all I am adding is a black cape, orange and black spidered witch hat and spiderweb stockings. Tonight I will be making a carrot cake and decorating it in the shape of a ghost or pumpkin I have not decided yet. But it should be fun all the same.

Clay and I are getting along really well! We will be celebrating our 17th month wedding anniversary this month. Who would of thought we would come through this far! I know that some couples don't even make it this long, but we are going strong! We love each other and would do what ever it took for the other so we have a lot to be thankful this coming Thanksgiving!

Speaking of Thanksgiving, I have decided to go to Houston and see my grandparents for once. They miss me and would really like to see me, at least that is what the tell me. I talked to Wayne last night and he too has invited Clay and I to join him and Letha for dinner on Thanksgiving and I think I might take him up on that offer. Since I don't get to see much of Wayne and I really miss him as a dad I said I would let him know soon real soon. It he awesome and I would love to spend as much time with him as possible!

Letha is another topic all to herself. I don't really know whats going on there but I hope she will come around soon! I really miss her too but she is going down a path that I don't quite understand. She is so boy crazy right now its hard for her to think of anything else, but this is how she is and I have never been able to deal with why she like this. Well maybe she will eventually come around and tell me what's bothering her. If its about Dustin or Brian then she knows I don't want to hear it so I am guessing that is why she is avoiding me, not surprised at all!

As for my mom, we don't talk much and I think for now that is probably how it should stay! She has her life and now I have mine and things are about to become more complicated so I don't need her drama adding to it and least not right now! I have enough children to watch and she is not one I care to deal with right now or any time in the future.

Well I guess that is it for me, I will talk to you all later!

Adios!

The latest in October!!!

Hey Gang,

Not a lot going on, I got a new job recently working for a meat processing company. I work in Accounts Payable and the people here are really nice. The job is something that in the beginning sounded frighten but in the end it turned out to be the one I really wanted. Janett and Billie are in my department and both of them are awesome and fun to work with. I go work at 7am and get off at 3:30pm, not bad hours at all, I rather like getting out when the kids do. I like to take naps when I get home but chores always seem to have my attention when I come home so sometimes it kind of sucks to come home. I stopped working for my dad now I am title only! Oh well but I learned after the first 2 weeks here that I was usually to tired to go and work for my dad, but I did get my laptop paid off! Yeah for me!

On another front kid sister Letha has been having major problems. So I am the one she comes to lately, and boy have I had my work cut out for me. See the thing is Letha has recently had her credit cards stolen, and now we are finding out that her current roommate and her roommate's boyfriend had something to do with it. Not to mention the fact the the boyfriend is always spending the night in the suite the girls share when he is not suppose to. Letha has in the past called me regarding this and how she does not feel safe and I have time and time again told her she needs to go to campus PD and she finally took my advice and did just that. Now the girl and her have gotten into a huge fight and recently kid sister was asked to leave the campus suites so that things could cool over, but this only prompted Letha to get her to move out all that more soon. So my parents had to go down to the school and find out what was going on and make sure that my kid sister did not get moved out by force. Everything was finally figured out and the girl will be going on her way soon. If the girl is not careful she will end up getting caught as one who was part of the credit card fraud case Letha has going on and then see if she likes it then!

The latest in October!!!

Hey Gang,

Not a lot going on, I got a new job recently working for a meat processing company. I work in Accounts Payable and the people here are really nice. The job is something that in the beginning sounded frighten but in the end it turned out to be the one I really wanted. Janett and Billie are in my department and both of them are awesome and fun to work with. I go work at 7am and get off at 3:30pm, not bad hours at all, I rather like getting out when the kids do. I like to take naps when I get home but chores always seem to have my attention when I come home so sometimes it kind of sucks to come home. I stopped working for my dad now I am title only! Oh well but I learned after the first 2 weeks here that I was usually to tired to go and work for my dad, but I did get my laptop paid off! Yeah for me!

On another front kid sister Letha has been having major problems. So I am the one she comes to lately, and boy have I had my work cut out for me. See the thing is Letha has recently had her credit cards stolen, and now we are finding out that her current roommate and her roommate's boyfriend had something to do with it. Not to mention the fact the the boyfriend is always spending the night in the suite the girls share when he is not suppose to. Letha has in the past called me regarding this and how she does not feel safe and I have time and time again told her she needs to go to campus PD and she finally took my advice and did just that. Now the girl and her have gotten into a huge fight and recently kid sister was asked to leave the campus suites so that things could cool over, but this only prompted Letha to get her to move out all that more soon. So my parents had to go down to the school and find out what was going on and make sure that my kid sister did not get moved out by force. Everything was finally figured out and the girl will be going on her way soon. If the girl is not careful she will end up getting caught as one who was part of the credit card fraud case Letha has going on and then see if she likes it then! Well I am not going to worry about it too much, the only thing I have to worry about is Letha NOW!!!!

Starting Life ANew...........

Well things have a way of falling into place. I started my own business as an Independent Beauty Consultant of Mary Kay Cosmetics. I know that is hard to believe coming for a girl who only wore make-up on special occasions. But it is true, I did start this and although things have been slow lately, I am hoping for them to pickup soon! I had a good start and now thinking of ways I can further my business and clients. I had my own website where I sell my products www.marykay.com/heather.moody and all the normal stuff that goes with starting a new business. I enjoy it very much and hope to really get something out of. I love the Mary Kay Mission statement of "God first, family second and career third"! It truly is a great company to be apart of with all of those women and their eagerness to help one another and that is where I have always wanted to be and now I get the chance. In the beginning Clay was against it and sometimes he is still reluctant to let me do stuff dealing with the company but he is coming around and when I really start doing well I know that he will be proud of me. I only want to do something where I know I can be with my children and husband and not have to sacrifice them for a career that is just going to make me crazy in the long run and not get anything out of it. This company gives me that and so much more. Room for growing and all the training you could ask for and a way to meet new and interesting people all the time. What more could a girl want? I know that I have been slacking of late because I have been depressed but I am going to change that this week and turn over a new leaf and hope and pray to god that I get the help I need to succeed! I know that with God by my side I can do anything and make stuff happen! I can do it, just like Mary Kay said! I can do it! I can do it! I can do it! All I have to do is try and put myself out there! Make myself more available and get someone to do it with. Stephanie brought me and I think it times that we both got out there and started making some real difference by teaming up and doing what we know best and that's sell! She has had her baby and now she promises to go back to work so now I have got to make sure she just that! Well i better go its getting late and I have lots to do! First I need some rest and second I need to think about expanding my client base! All these thoughts how will I ever get to sleep?

www.myspace.com

I am amazed to see what this site could do. My sister and cousins are on there. They obviously new about it and did not tell me till now. But I have found people I went to school with and I am amazed at in appearance some of them have not changed and others have changed alot. Lanay being one of them. But the last time I saw her she was a little girl in Middle school and now she is in college. It is sometimes hard to believe how grown up she is. Now there is so many people I want to contact and see and chat with. Deya is on there and some of my other classmates, hey even my boss Cathi is on which I thought was cool.
