Header

As you can tell, I am really new to blogger world... I can't seem to get my header centered for some reason!!! But hey, I gave it the good 'ol college try! I'm sad I lost the picture of my heels though, those were so sexy!!! Someday, I will own a pair of Manolo Blahnik Heels, just wait!

Anyway, I'm just sitting here trying to be patient... it isn't working too well. The next two days are going to be CRAZY for me! I get my new apt tomorrow...so exciting! But riddle me this... Why in the world would the apt complex clean the carpets the day of a move it?! Does that makes sense to anyone?! I think that is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard! I'm going to move in, and have wet carpet! I mean come on! Seriously?!

But anyway, after all that mess... it's of to Sunny Florida! I can't wait! Maybe I'll actually get tan.. Wouldn't that be cool!!!!

Mom's Quote of the Day: Aug. 5th


Americans, living in what is called the richest nation on earth, seem always to be short of money. Wives are working in unprecedented numbers, husbands hope for overtime hours to earn more, or take part-time jobs evenings and weekends, children look for odd jobs for spending money, the family debt climbs higher, and psychologists say one of the biggest causes of family quarrels and breakups is "arguments over money." Much of this trouble can be traced to our present "debt-money" system.

Too few Americans realize why Christian Statesmen wrote into Article I of the U.S. Constitution: Congress shall have the Power to Coin Money and Regulate the Value Thereof.

(Not the Federal Reserve Board; which is not a government entity but a privately owned corporation!)


They did this in prayerful hope it would prevent "love of money" from destroying the Republic they had founded. Subversion of Article I has brought on us the "evil" of which God's Word had warned.


The solution to our debt challenge is:

  • quit paying interest on the money we print just as the Constitution demands.
  • quit giving money to the rest of the world until we are out of debt and the dollar is stable.

The Excitment is Stirring

I find that as the time comes near for me to move out and go on vacation the excitement I feel is running rampant. I feel like I've had 12 cups of coffee I'm so jittery all the time! I can't wait to be able to relax on the beach while reading a book that I actually want to read, not the is required of me to read. But in order to get to that point, I have to move into my new apartment first.

I get my new place on Friday afternoon, I'm taking a 1/2 off work in order to try and get everything settled. Then Saturday morning, Lover Boy and I take off with his parents and fly off the New Orleans where we will then drive to Santa Rosa Beach. As exciting as all this is, and it is VERY exciting. I find that I am beginning to start worrying and not wanting to live on my own again. It always takes me awhile to get used to returning to a home that is completely empty...no parents, no dog, just me and my thoughts and mountains of movies. Although its been a hard few months living at my parents, I love them so much, and its fun when you have nothing to do to walk into the other room and watch TV with my mom.

I know I can still do that, I mean they're just a 15 minute drive away. But its different. There's no one there when you walk through the door saying "hey sweetie! you're home! How was your day? Dinner will be ready in 30 minutes!". I realize now how much I've taken that for granted, and how wonderful my mom is to put up with my cranky mood because it's been so long since I've eaten lunch! I love that woman, and I'm sad at the idea that this is the last time I will live at home. Its so weird to think about that... I was born in that house, I've lived there for almost 20 years, and now... Se la ve, etc. It really is sad!
