Always find my way back :-)

Dear Blog,

     I really really REALLY didn't forget about you, in fact, I do realize I could work out some serious frustrations here but it may be read by those who would automatically think I am writing about them.  Hmmm well, that is a possibility but I'll just have to think of something else to bitch about heehee! I'm at a sort of stall and can't think of anything in particular to write sooooo, this will be my tiny post for the day .... glad to see ya again ole buddy :-)

The crazy one :-)

Really tired of Holy than Thou PEOPLE!!!

   I don't know why it irks me soooo bad but I am so sick of holier than thou Christians constantly having to preach down to everyone (including other Christians) or put down others because of their beliefs like they are so much better than them. I am a Christian - I may not be the best, I may not be like these "perfect" Christians, my temper may get the best of me several times a day, my witness may not be as perfect as yours is, I struggle with everyday ups and downs . . .





   BUT do you know what I do know??? I count. I count to the most important person, that being God - and that's all that matters. HE made me - HE knew when I would give my life to HIM - HE loves ME. HE loves me when I stumble (because I do all the time) HE knows that I will always stumble as long as I walk this earth - I am human. Becoming a Christian was by no means the right to look down on others like I am better than them.






   This may sound terrible but there is no other way to put it - I am soooo sick to death of people quoting scripture to me!!!! Either like I need it or to prove a point. You know what?? most of the time when I need scripture to boost me, somehow it presents itself in a way that I know it was meant for me - and to me that is more special and I receive it a whole lot better than I would without someone shoving it down my throat.


   I work in a business where I come in contact with women from all walks of life, Christian - non Christian - some not sure - some don't care - some who are afraid of "in your face Christians" - and most who don't want to feel like the need for salvation and baptism had got to happen TODAY!!! and threatened with "your going straight to hell" if you don't.

I do know this .... people respond to Love, Caring, and HUMBLENESS!! I have a family member that to this day probably does not have a relationship with God - because of religion being shoved on him. I pray for him, even though he did alot of bad things to his family - I KNOW there is still a place for him.






For my final rant . . . JUDGE NOT LEST YE BE JUDGED!!


is one thought you need to ask yourself before you open your mouth - so if you think you rise above that then I am so glad you are perfect!!






   There are sooo many religions out there - my question is, each religion has their beliefs and supreme God, Whose to say that they arent talking about the same person as us, except using a different name?? Who are we to say they are going to hell because they worship "insert name here"?? We are way to quick to put down other religions or even different versions of the Christian faiths, because they don't do things the way we do. Do they really truly care or is just because they do it different than the staunch folks do? Honestly, I don't have the energy to try to save the world. I wouldn't say I don't care, but I understand and accept the fact that this world is way too big and I can only worry about what is closest and most important to me.



   I am tired of ranting. I feel like I am starting to have a debate with myself - uh not a good idea - don't want to burn the brain cells completely out LOL






   Comment - don't comment - If you think you might even come close to pissing me off - then it's best not to. LOL






The soap box is open.

Can you be TOO proud of your kids??? I think Not!

Hi, it's me - the long lost blogger LOL!  Anyway, life has been insane busy, spring is here and spring fever should be considered grounds for time off!! Life is flying so fast right now I wish I could just put my foot out and slow it down just a little.  I work so much sometimes I feel like I miss out on alot of my kids lives and trying to be supportive of them and what they are doing.  My oldest,  Kari - is in the final days of her nursing training - and it's done it's best to wear her down - but I know she will come out fine.  She isn't the mushy gushy sappy type - but her Mom is. I am so proud of her and her determination to get through this program that at her graduation and pinning I will be a big ball of mush and tears! She'll understand one day.  I love you baby and I am so proud of you :-)

Your big ball of mush,
   Mom :-)
