Im back!!!!!

OK so havent blogged in over half a year! Lots has been going on and I dont know the whole facebook craze made me leave my love for blogging...I recently have been catching up on other blogs of dear friends and it made me miss mine...So I decided I would come back...I use to only do pics (mainly for my parents to see cause they dont fb) but Im sorta thinkin' this time if u want to see my pics u can go to my fb acct...Here Im gonna journal my lil' heart out! K! So today my husband is sick in bed..Has been for 2 days..Im praying I dont get it! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE LORD JESUS dont let me get it..I'll be good! I'll go to church and read the bible every day (do any of you make deals with God like that?) I have a great secret to not getting sick..If u want to know it read on but do know u will probably be a little grosed out..But I seriously think it works and is the reason myself and my kids rarely get sick...Ok here it is...We have never taken coldees or airborne..I think that stuff has germs in it..its a gemic therefore making u buy more of it, etc....Nope we dont take any of that crap..We rarely wash our hands (I know grose I told u)..I mean if there is evident dirt or crap on them we wash our hands..but to wash your hands just to wash your hands...palease..It dries them out and makes the good cooty bugs leave so stop washing your frickin' hands...I dont care if thats what the doctor says again its a gemic to get u sick therefore needing to go see him more allowing him to drive the nice cars, live in a nice house, etc..don't do it..I never sneeze in my elbow..Nope I sneeze in my hands..There was no elbow rule in my day..U covered your mouth but no one ever thought of the elbow..I cup my hand over it..yep thats the same hand that I dont wash..and then touch the shopping cart, shake your hand, yada, yada (Im sure at this point Im totally grossing you all out) Ok one more thing..5 second rule is more like whenever rule in my house..we eat stuff off the ground all the time..Gum falls out just put it back in your mouth..Now if it falls out in kitty litter or in coffee grounds then I would suggest not doing it but not cause its dirty more cause of the texture is just gonna be nasty...Yep thats my wisdom for all u sickies out there... 1. dont take vitamins 2. sneeze in your hands and then eat a sandwich 3. spit your gum out in the parking lot pick it up and eat it...U'll be as healthy as an OX or horse which is it??? ahhhh Im so happy to be back Im sure u are to.. wink! xoxo

pinewood derby

This year Brody made his car completly on his own for the the pinewood derby in compliance with our pack rules getting back the "roots" of cub scout racing! Off to the races we went with his built in cheering section! He checked his car in..His car raced 8 times and smoked all the other cars every single race!!! Once it was down to the FINALS we all knew Brodys car was going to be the leader of the pack...BUT NO>>>>at that time one of the scout fathers walked over and said they would be DISQUALIFYING Brodys car as one of the wheels was significantly higher than the other ones and that did not make it have 4 point contact...What? We walked over and looked at all the cars and even touched a few and said this one doesnt have 4 points of contact and is wobbly, so does this one...Yes but ours one wheel was significantly higher than the rest...By the size of a nickel they said....so we said thats ridiculous...1..it passed check in. 2...how do we know it didnt get dropped or tipped during one of the race's 3...When did they notice it? they said the 2nd race but continued to let it race 6 more times??? We were even told that it was in the "rules" To this day we have never seen such rule about 4 point contact and have even read its a enhacement if you can get it to roll straight...To say the least Brody was quite upset and a little bewildered over what happened...Later they offered to have him make another car and re race but we thought that was silly and were not going to disapont another scout that was now told they had WON the race....We have since left the pack and joined another one as we just felt this was pety and poor sportsmanship and did not want this for a scout family!

KO's donation

Such an amazing story... My best friend and I stepped forward 4 years ago to become donors for a dear family of ours from our church...Sadly we were not a match and our friend lost his life to cancer.. A few months ago KO got a call that she was now a perfect match for an 8 year old boy that was dying of cancer...She was asked to step forward and donate platelets to help this boy... It took no thought at all and KO took on this very unselfish task and went to it..After many months of physicals, appointment's, injections, and a true dedication on her part she spent 7 hours sitting in an uncomfortable hospital bed with YUCK, needles in both arms for the donation process... We have not heard back if the donation was a success yet but we do know the family that we initally sought out to help at our church has a new found peace knowing that their fathers life was not taken in vain and because of his donor drive 4 years ago a life will possibly be saved....Thank you Jesus for having your hand all over this!
