Halloween Time!

Happy Halloween everyone!

Fall is at it's fullest right now with all the tree leaves yellow orange and red. And some have tottaly shed their garments and stand bare waiting for winter to come and pass. And as a part of fall out come costumes, pumpkins, and yummy baked goods.

Halloween is this weekend and I am excited! I don't like the goblins and evil surrounding the holiday but I love dressing up in a costume and trick or treating. And ok I will say that I do enjoy a haunted house. =) And I love the smell of baked goods and the sight of pumpkins on the doorstep. But the thing I like the most about halloween would have to be spending it with friends and family.

This year I am going to either be a pirate (again) or a fairy...I'm not sure witch though. I need to go to my friends and see about a dress for the fairy or else I will be a pirate. (my favorite cosutme!)


What do you all do to celebrate haloween? Or do you? and I would love to hear what you are going to be!

I hope you all have a great Haloween! And be careful!

I am 17 but I still have to be careful. (no I'm not to old to dress up and go trick or treating! lol although I don't trick or treat that mucj anymore.)

Here are some guidlines to foloww to be safe.

Don't go places with out someone
check your candy before you eat it!
If you have little brothers or sisters that you are going to be taking trick or treating be very watchful.

And!! Have Fun!!

Weather...and Friends

Hello everyone!! Fall is here and winter is right around the corner ready to drown out all memories of warm days. I am a spring/summer girl. Not a winter girl. I love fall but not so much this year. It is October and the other day it was 35 degrees. Way to cold for my liking.

But my birthday is in the winter so I do like it a bit..and then there is Christmas oh and Thanksgiving. So I guess it isn't all bad. =)

I have a poem about winter, well the seasons...but I have to find it. I wrote it a year or two ago. I will look this week and when I come back to the library I will post it. (if I find it) lol


Her are some qoutesa bout friendship. I hope you all enjoy them!

Oh but first I have a funny story about friends. Me and my frined were walking to her house yesterday after work. She is always almost running into somthing or walking in to the path of someone..and I always pull her awya or guid her path. It is just instinct.

Well yesterday I wasn't watching where I was going and then she said Wild Rose! watch out! and pointed to the ground.

There were 2 dead possums about 3 inches from where I stopped! I almost stepped on them! Oh it was so gross!

I jumped away and playfully socked her arm. What kind of friend are you I cried (all in fun of course) She said well I didn't let you step on them!! She was right...she came thorough for me...a few inches before but she did come through. LOL

Anywas we have a lot of fun together...and now the qoutes....

Truly great friends are hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget. -- G. Randolf

What is a friend? I will tell you it is someone with whom you dare to be yourself. -- Frank Crane

A friend is one who knows us, but loves us anyway. -- Fr. Jerome Cummings

A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out. Friendship is one mind in two bodies.

A friend is someone you can be alone with and have nothing to do and not be able to think of anything to say and be comfortable in the silence. -- Sheryl Condie

I need you too know our friendship means a lot - If you cry then I cry, if you laugh..if you jump out the window I look down then....I laugh again :-)

But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything. -- Mohammed Ali

Have a good one!!

Test results

The test results came back and we learned that I don't have an Ulcer. So that is good but now I will have to go get more tests taken. What is it that I have? I have no clue and I really am not looking forward to haveing blood drawn again. ):

Thanks for the prayers everyone! I will say that I am a little worried. I want to know what is wrong with me and what I have to do to get well.

I hope that you are all healthy and enjoying the season. Whatever season it is where you are. lol

Real Quick

Hello all! I don't have much time but I thought I would pop in and let you all know what is going on.

First...our internet is temporairly off, hence the reason I have not responeded to comments or written any new posts.

Second...I have not gotten the results for the Ulcer test back yet. My arms ache and my stomach has been hurting more often but other wise I am ok. I appreciate all of your well wishes and prayers. =) I am hoping to get the results back soon and to be able to go ahead with some kind of treatment. I can stand most pain but stomach pains are terriable. I feel nausiated almost all the time lately and I just can't wait to fell well again. But I am trusting in the Lord.

I got to run but I will try to post more soon.

Doctors and Needles

Today was a crazy day! I had to go to the doctors to get my blood drawn. I have been having stomach problems for a few months. We think I might have an ulcer...anyway so today I went to the doctors.

They did the usual...check mt weight, temputure, heart rate and all that fun stuff. Well then it was time to get my blood drawn. The nurse asked if I had gotton my blood taken before and if I fainted at the sight of needles. I said yes I had had my blood drawn and no I don't faint at the sight of needles. So she stuck the needle in my right arm... and it started giving blood...and then stopped. She pushed the needle in farther and was touching around my vein...anyway she pushed it in a little farther and stuff and I felt terriable.

My mom asked me how I was doing and I said "bad". A minute later I said "I'm gonna faint" and then there were 10 moms, blackness and...I fainted. My mom says my eyes rolled back in my head and I stooped forward. Well the next thing I kn ew I was laying down and they were putting cool clothes on my head.

I was clammy, and my stomach was killing me, and my arm was in pain. I was kinda there but still kinda out if it. It was a new expierence.

When I felt better she drew the blood from my other arm. So now i know that when I need to have blood drawn it must come from my left arm..not my right.

My right arm is sore and I can't really move it without pain. So i have typed this whole thing with one hand. And that arm is way tired. But at least I have a good story to tell. LOL

We might know the results to the blood test tomorrow. I will let you all know what happens and keep you updated.

I would love prayers! I am hoping that all goes well and that it is not to expensive to get me feeling better.

Joys of a Family

I LOVE my family....even when we have our moments..like when my brothers put a moth down the back of my shirt...3 times...and when my sisters make a mess of our room and try to blame me...cause I take out their toys and play with them right?? or when the baby hits me when I am trying to take care of him....

Yep all these things happen.

And the moth down my shirt..AHHH!!! It was so gross. And then the other day there was a HUGE moth outside the bathroom window. I mean the size of a playing card. My brother grabbed me and pulled me to the window and tried to grab it to put down the back of my shirt!! I screamed, started hitting him (as best as I could in a huge bear hug/grab) and called for my mom. Luckily he didn't do it. Oh I would have been so freaked out!

But these our some of the joys of being in a large family.

We tease and pull tricks on eachother...all in good fun of course. We may mess with eachother but if someone outside of our family messses withone of us we are all there to let them know not to.

And because I have such a big family there is usually never a dull moment. Though truthfully I sometimes wish for more alone time. But if I do need some time alone my mom and Dad are pretty good about keeping the little crazies away.

So here are some of my "Joys of a Family" moments. If you have any "Joys of a Family" moments I would love to hear them. Just leave a comment. =)
