Movie Rating 3 day weekend

These chick flicks had me all messed up this weekend but I did enjoy them.

"The Vow" - So sweet and sad to loose your memory and not have any glimpse of being in love with your husband.  I cried.

"One Day" - The meeting once a year at the same date is pretty cool.  I might steal that to do with my girlfriends. Too bad happiness doesn't last forever. I cried

"Steel Magnolia" - I missed the first viewing cause I was sleep but I caught the 1:00 am one.  I kinda like the original better but I enjoyed the laughs this version gave me.  They added new pieces in that were very sweet.  Of course I cried cause who didn't.

The one thing that each of these movies share is that you have to live your life to the fullest.  We do not know our hour so why put off today if you don't know the future.  I hope you are laughing, dancing and enjoying all that this life has to offer. We only live one.

Enjoy!

Scripture: Joshua 1:9

Have not I commanded thee?
Be strong and of a good courage; 
Be not afraid,
Neither be thou dismayed:
For the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.

KJV

Planner Plan CARLA

Yes I have planned a lot of different events and it would make sense that I would plan the wedding of my dreams. It hasn't happened that way. I just picked out jewelry ha. Right no location, no dress, nothing has been signed and dated. I can say that counseling has been a blessing for us to learn more about ourselves and one another. This whole event has been very depressing though. I have worked on being happy about it but each time I get geared up something else happens. I keep wondering why me and why now but that is life. Right! This will pass. Right! I am still waiting for the pass part.

So today it starts. I have to gear up and get things moving before he gets me. I have to focus on all the good that has and is coming based on this union. One major thing is our growth in God. We are still working it out but we can feel God blessing us each day.

I figure if I post my checklist to you then I will surely be accountable.

• Location by October 25th (I will have some long days and sleepless nights but it will get done) 
• Date!!!!!!!!! (April 2013?) 
• Invitations In the mist of all this DRESS. (don't beat me for being Plain Jane....) 
• The Party (bridal parties are so much fun) 
• Engagement Party (it is possible to happen November 2012 TBD) 
• Showers and Such (so glad that is one thing I can give to others)
• More

If I can knock this out I will feel better, eat better and smile more.

Thanks again to everyone that has given us your love and support. We feel it and appreciate it.

Now Let's Get Married!

New Day, New Dreams

At 30 I thought it would all come together and unfold for me. I thought that I would be in this new place of love and understanding but the devil is so busy. You know he is a liar though.

I am gathering all the love, hurt, pain, joy and much more to continue this journey called life. There is a reason I am still here and able to touch someone. Bare with me. It won't all make sense but I pray that through me you find something that helps you.

I am not perfect because none of us are but we are here. We are real beings working to do what: Please God and be welcomed home.

 That is my theme now "Please God." The world will continue to hurt me but he is always here.

 Are you ready, set, let's go!

MOM

Some people dream about being a mom and cannot wait to have their own children. I don't think I have ever been that person. I enjoy children but I don't daydream about having my own. God on the other hand has had plans for me. Even though I am not a mother that has given birth to my own child I do have children. I have my maternal ways of doing things that keeps me prepared to be here for those I care for. It is weird when I think about it but also a blessing. If the time does not come for me to birth a child I am filled with the love of the children I have in my life. Some of them are under age while others are older than me but no matter what I look after them as if they were my own. I pray that I empower the feeling and embrace the experiences because they make me stronger. The experiences show me that anything is possible. Not everything is as we would define it to be. I am a mom in many different ways. Ashe...

Hi world.
