CHAT it up!

Woke up and went to CHAT field day! The kiddos played games, we ate, & then it was off to the pool. I brought water balloons for the games I picked. One of the moms, Laura, came up with a great idea. We played dodge ball with water balloons, and the moms got to throw the balloons at the kids. We all ended up a bit wet by the end I think. It was so very grand in the heat.


Kelly ha to guard the balloons prior to games, due to all the kids wanting to just hold or touch the water balloons. Hmmm I was sure to take a snapshot. I love you Kelly!!!


The pool time was wonderful. Funny how things change. I use to dislike just sitting in the hot sun doing nothing. Now, I love doing nothing and getting a free tan. Ahhhh I grasped that moment.

Soooo, I can home and clean a tiny bit. Then I ran 1.5 miles. And I didn't cramp until I stopped, and they weren't as bad as before.hallelujah!

I thought I'd share an odd photo. I noticed that for the past couple of years I've had this spot that comes up on my leg when I get hot. Look at it! It was so amazing that I had to take a quick picture.
I then relaxed and cooled down with a song or two.
Squash was next. Although, I couldn't quit eat all of it. But I took a picture of that, too!
Now, I say goodnight to you. I must bathe, and read my Managing Your Moods Devotional.


Me and Lennie! I look like my granny  in this pic.

up on the inside towards my knee. hmmm see it!

Kelly guards the balloons


Soothing mmhmmm

the squash. Thanks to Nan n Pop. Love them.

Quick notes

I am down to about 170-172 lbs.
I haven't been able to run as often as usual. After about 1 mile of running on pavement, I get these horrible stomach cramps(not the side cramps). I HAVE to stop and walk. Today, I ran 1.08, and had to stop. When I got home, I started coughing and wheezing. Wheezing usually only happens to me when I run in the cold air. Now, here I am feeling a little frustrated. I was running 2-3 miles, and now I am making it only 1 mile. WHAT IN THE WORLD ??

Positively, I spent the best 3 bucks on a devotional at the Dollar General called, Managing Your Moods. I'm not ashamed to say it either. I've done the first one, and plan to do the second tonight. The first chapter talks about emotions. It's a good devotional, and I want to buy all of them to give as gifts.

I am ready for June! My birthday is the 15th, and I'll officially be 30yrs old. Good things will happen in June!
I'm going to see my Uncle Joel in North GA, and am planning on going on a sweet canoe trip with him, my little girl, and my best friend. My husband will be working, so I don't think he is going.
Miss Michaela is coming back home to stay in South Ga for a while :) We gone chill, and enjoy.
Our Shiver Family reunion will be happening for the first time in many years! I hope we get to sit around and sing some ol' hymns.(hint hint) "Who can bring the hymnals?"
My Sis in law and my two nieces are flying over from Cali, and I can't wait to meet my newest niece for the first time. Her name is Ava. :) She'll be turning 1 years old while she is here. I bet Miss Madeline has grown so very much! AND I can't wait to spend time with my super sweet, super talented, super super sis n law! I love them:)!!!

I've been working at my mom's store a lil more. I can honestly say that I love working there. Most of the customers know me, and it's pretty good to work with people who are like family. :)D:)

I want some Korean food bad.

that is all fer now.

It Ain't Spam!

    I've decided to start back to selling online. Selling some stuff that is just taking up too much space. Clothes that I've grown out of ,or I slide out of...:) If you've been keeping up with me on facebook, then you may have seen my posts. Well, just so you know...It aint' spam!

Poshmark is the bomb. The company figures in the shipping for the buyer, and you get an email with a shipping label for priority mail...and you just print. It's so easy and kewl!

I've gone through my closet so many times and whimped out on gettin' rid of stuff. You know the, "I might get back to that size thing, or the I might get bigger, or the I might need that for something one of these days.
YOU KNOW! 

I figure: I need $$ for Natalie's school books. So this is great for me! 

This is an Iphone App. But you can shop online, too!!

New King James Version (NKJV)
20 So Jesus said to them, “Because of your unbelief;[a] for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.

Don't Get Your Panties in a Wad

hmmmm...
I'm trying to think before I type.
Yesterday, I attempted to log into my blog to post a blog that would be entertaining and funny...and well...I couldn't log in...TODAY I go to blogger, and don't even have to log in...I'm already in....hmmmmm.

I like to blog my days on the day of...ya know...so it'll be more real and junk.

Ok.Ok. I hardly ever talk about these things out loud, but I'm just in a mood so I will. BHAHA!

I am not confused.

But I reckon some others are...Yes, I did say reckon, and that doesn't make me dumb or whatever hate word some folks like to call other folk who use the word reckon. I reckon I just like that word.

So, ya know...everybody has a facebook, and I rarely have eva posted my opinions on how folk post junk on there...but this ain't facebook folk.

What is so amazing to me is ...
As most know, I believe in God. I am firm in what I believe. I am not a crazy religious people hater who thinks of myself as perfect. I don't throw Bibles at people, and mock them or call them idiots for not agreeing with me.  You cannot change my mind about what I believe...cause well...then I would actually be a hypocrite.  I wouldn't believe in what I say I believe in at all.

Are you with me? Ok. Let's keep going.

Now, I love all kinds of peeps. Ya'll know that my peeps. But what does make my face squench up (although I am not offended) is when peeples who disagree with my beliefs bash my beliefs, talk about folk who believe what I believe, mock my beliefs, and call folk who believe what I believe idiots. AND some of them peeples say they love me.
( now according to the Bible-the book I believe to be true-it says I will be mocked, so ...I guess it should be expected.)

Yes. I do know that there are folk who claim to believe in God, and shove it down folks throat. But guess what...I try my darndest not to bash those folk either.

What's the difference here?
Folks preach love.Folks bash and shove.
 Should we stab back at the other who stabbed us first? ,or Who stabbed who first?
Whoa! Confusion= a hot steamin' mess.

Thank you for not analyzing every word I type/say during your visit to my blog.
I appreciate you not bashing or mocking me at this time, or at a later time with a friend, family member,and for not posting your mockery on your fb page.

No, I will not discuss this blog. It's my blog, and this is all I choose to share at this time. I'll take no further questions.

As I finish this blog with a chuckle and a wink. I hope that you have read it with the right mindset, and not one of anger or resentment.
 Cause as Sweet Brown would say, " Ain't nobody got time for that!"

I reckon that is all my blah-ging for tonight.
Peace! I love ya'll!

Matthew 11:6

And blessed is he who is not offended because of Me.”

Matthew 6:12
"And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors."


Matthew 6:14-15


“For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses."
