My Crazy Life!

Nope, still no new pictures! Sorry gang. My camera still sits in the same spot it has been for about a week. Maybe I will get it out today. I did get the video camera out the other night and finally got Rachel counting from 1-10! And, she also sang Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star for me. So cute!

Well, I did clean out my jewelry box and put all of my jewelry in it's place. I had to polish a lot of it because the silver had tarnished. I really should be better on my jewelry. My wedding set is really dirty right now too but I don't have platinum cleaner....may have to invest in some.

So, I spoke to the lady about selling jewelry. There are expenses involved but the perks sound fabulous...isn't that what they always want you to think when they are giving a sales pitch. Brice and I have done some research and I really feel like this is a good opportunity. If nothing else, I can earn back the expenses that it takes to get into it and have a bunch of jewelry. BUT, I am really wanting to do something great with this. I have wanted to sell things for awhile. I went to a Southern Living at Home party once and thought I wanted to do that. I am thinking jewelry will be more fun! I just hope I have enough people to host shows for me. I have a lot of friends that are supportive but they need to invite people that I don't know. All of you reading this that live in the DFW area, LET ME KNOW IF YOU WANT TO HOST A SHOW!!!! It doesn't know if I know you are not....there are a lot of great things about hosting a show including FREE stuff! :)

I have been thinking about my life and all of the things that I have going on..it's a lot. There are some things that I know I am God-called to do and some others that I did because I needed or wanted to. I am thinking that I am going to have to downsize my activities. For my family, for me, and for this new business opportunity. I have been praying about what I need to get rid of. Hopefully I will make some wise decisions.

Okay, so I went Latin dancing last night! Absolutely so much fun!!!!! I loved it...and I sweated! It was a lot better than belly dancing. Bad news is that she isn't doing the class at all the month of July. Maybe I will work on the moves from last night....probably not! =)

Hope all is well with everyone!

Friends...Forever!

What is a friend?  Webster defines a friend as: a person whom one knows, likes, and trusts. It goes on to talk about a friend being a supporter.  I would have the tendency to assume that everyone has at least one friend...maybe not a best friend or perhaps maybe not even a close friend but someone that they can call a friend.  I know that difference personality types lend themselves for more friends than others.  I am a sanguine which means that I have a lot of people that I consider to be my friend.  I have always been the type of person that needs and wants friends...people around me who love me, encourage me, and support me.  On the flip side of this, I have always had a hard time trusting people so I tend to be skeptical of people.  Unfortunately, a friend described me pretty accurately this morning.  She said that I (and she is the same way) have the tendency to dislike people until I have a reason to like them.  No, not proud of it...but I am just skeptical.  I have been hurt

Replace My Complaining Attitude

If you know anything about me, you know that I am blunt.  I am straight-forward, to the point, and to a fault, honest.  This is something that I have often wanted to change about myself.  Let's face it, there are things about each one of us that we would change, and let me be clear, there are MANY other things I would change but becoming more gentle has always been something I have longed for. I have had people tell me that I should be proud of this.  They wish they could be more assertive like me.  I guess there are good points to this type of characteristic but more times than not, I find myself getting into trouble because of it.   Piggy-backing on that character istic  flaw is the fact that I am a complainer.  I would rather whisper that but again, if you know me, you probably didn't fall in the floor in disbelief that I just typed that.  It is hard to admit.  It is hard to tell a world (okay a few people) that read this that I complain.  How off-putting is that?  I g

FUN STUFF!!

We have had a fun couple of days! I worked on July 4th and Rachel and Daddy stayed home doing nothing...I think they enjoyed it! Saturday was pretty uneventful.....we went to Target and bought some containers so that I could put all of my clothes away that are TOO BIG!!! YAY!! It was also a sneaky way to allow my husband to see that I really don't have too many clothes!!! None of them fit! =) Sunday was church and we came back here and relaxed all day. Here is a picture of Rachel from Sunday. Rachel's dress was adorable....went to her ankles.... Brice had yesterday off too so we all went to Hawaiian Falls waterpark in Mansfield for a little water fun after Rachel's nap. It was a lot of fun except for the part where I fell down the stairs leading into the lazy river and in an attempt to keep my child's head above water (I was holding her), I tumbled down about 4 stairs, twisted my ankle, hit my knee, and scraped up the side of my leg all while swallowing a lot of water.
