I really like it at the moment ... guess I'll really know when I go to pull it up. LOL Already tried my clip and it didn't work. While waiting on these pictures to upload I tried a ponytail and it works. :) So I'll still be able to pull my hair up when I work out. I really couldn't believe how long my hair had gotten. PS Forgot to take a picture of the back before the hair cut. </div><div align="justify">~LaTeR~ </div><div> </div><div>GOD IS GOOD ...

I think they just get faster and faster. I finished up reading "How to Forgive when You Can't Forget" last night, it was a pretty good book. I found myself having to reread some sentences to make sure I understood what I was reading, but took lots of great notes. Debated starting back to read Joyce Meyer "The Confident Woman" but after the morning I had I decided on "Safe People ... How to Find Relationships That Are Good For You & Avoid Those That Aren't" by Dr Henry Cloud and Dr John Townsend. Hoping to learn a lot of great things from this book. It came highly recommended by a good friend of mine. I got me a handy dandy notebook instead of note cards this time ... I kept having to grab note cards so I figured a notebook would be a lot better. :) </div><br /><div align="justify">Got most of the house cleaned up this morning then I got to go have lunch w/my son before his doctors appointment. Doctor said he was fine just to finish up the medicine he was taking. Now I just hope we don't have to go back for awhile. LOL Seems like everytime I turn around since the day before school let out I've been taking him to the ER or the doctor. I asked them today if I could trade him in. Now I really wouldn't do that because even though he knows how to push my buttons he always makes me laugh. </div><br /><div align="justify">Great memory verse for today is "Being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. Phil. 1:6</div><br /><div align="justify">Remember ... GOD IS GOOD ...

I find myself having to read sentences just to figure out what I'm reading ... so I guess I'm saying I wish it was an easier read, but I have getting some great notes from the book. I got out my concordance this morning searching for stuff I picked up out of the book. :) Soon as I'm finished here going to get back at it. My time was cut short I had to take my son to the ER but that was fine. </DIV><br /><DIV>So we started our morning at the ER ... I thought the spot on my sons ankle was where he had been bitten by a tick. It still could be a bite from a tick, spider, or just an open wound that got infected ... the infection spread up his leg and caused the lymph node in his groin area to enlarge. So after getting instructions from the doctor and prescriptions we headed off to the drug store and a quick trip home. Then we left again right before 12 to go to pick up his medicine and then to meet up w/Meagan to go eat lunch. That's when I thought I had a brilliant idea to get my toes and nails done. :) Meagan had a gift certificate so we went and got it then headed to VyVy nails for pampering ... then Meagan had been talking about getting her hair cut so we waited 45 minutes to get her hair cut I'm going back next Saturday .... doing to get my cut in a stack in the back and long in the front :) I can't wait to see what it's going to look like. I'll try to remember to take a before picture and an after picture. I meant to do that before I started working out but forgot so maybe I'll be better this time. :) Well my son wasn't a happy camper with me so I took him out for ice cream and that seemed to work at settling him down from being mad at me. :) Now he's gone to play golf and I'm enjoying the quiet time. :) </DIV><br /><DIV>Well I'm on a roll ... maybe I can keep it up ... 2 days in a row now </DIV><br /><DIV> </DIV><br /><DIV><br /><DIV style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"><SPAN style="COLOR: #c27ba0">GOD IS GOOD ...

LOL I've been busy reading and I bought a wii fit which is way fun. I didn't feel like I was getting the workout I wanted with it ... so I went in search for something else. I found the EA Sports Personal Trainer and I love it!!! I'm doing the 30 day challenge right now & have noticed that my clothes are starting to be big :) now that puts a smile on my face. So now I'm doing the Personal Trainer and only using the wii fit for keeping up w/my BMI and weight. (now it does make me angry w/the Wii age LOL)</div><br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify">Things have been hectic at work since I got back. I'm still playing catch up and not sure how much longer that is going to take me. It seems like every time I think I'm going to get some extra time my desk & in box gets slammed. I'm not complaining because I feel blessed to have the job that I have. In fact the first of July was my 7th anniversary of employment :). </div><br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify">I'm starting back the book "How to Forgive when You can't Forget" ... hoping to finish it this time ... then I plan on either finishing up Joyce Meyer's book "The Confident WOMAN" or starting "Safe People". That's the plan anyways then once I finish these 3 books I'll take a look and see if I want to read another Joyce Meyer or start back w/fiction books again. I need to go to the library to see if they have the Karen Kingsbury book I'm missing and I'm not wanting to have to order it and pay shipping. Yeah Yeah I know I'm a cheap, but still I'd rather plan a road trip to Anderson and find it at the book store. :) </div><br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify">Well this was short even though I haven't posted in while I'm wanting to get to my workout for today before it gets any later. :) </div><br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"> </div><br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify">~LaTeR~</div><br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"><span style="color:#c27ba0;">GOD IS GOOD ...

I've been a Grandma since March 3rd of this year. Then in April I had surgery and this month I've started counting calories (that isn't fun at all).<br /><br />Sierra made her presence know March 3rd that was just awesome words can't describe that. I never want to forget that moment and I hope I get to experience it again but much later on. LOL Can't belive it's been over 3 months now but she is a cutie I call her SweetPea :)<br />My surgery went great ... still don't think my hormones are right yet ... been told it takes about six months :( but I'm at the stage where I just like being by myself. :( I know that's not good but I've been getting lots of reading done during this time. In fact I tell myself every Saturday night that I'm going to get up the next morning and head to church, but end up in my chair watching the New Spring Webcampus instead ... it can be found at the following link on Sundays at 11:15, 2 and 6 <a href="http://www.newspring.cc/webcampus">http://www.newspring.cc/webcampus</a> . On a plus note instead of being out of work six weeks I was only out 4 weeks which was great.<br /><br />Yes I started counting calories on Wednesday, June 17th, and discovered that I'm not eating enough but I was sick that day. So I've been writting down everything including breath mints LOL I'm averaging around 1500+ calories a day and according to the webmd web site I only 1200 calories. Now I did buy a Wii Fit for me and my son and so far I've stuck w/it for 10 straight days. :) I skipped today well except to show my son something so I think I got in 8 minutes but I guess that's better than skipping the whole day.<br /><br />This weekend was a busy weekend for me ... well it started on Thursday night during the storm. I cleaned the carpet in my sons room, then on Friday I got home and worked on trying to clean the siding, then worked out on the wii for 30 minutes then cleaned the carpet in my living room/dinning room (don't use the dinning room as a dinning room use it for a computer / puzzle area instead. Then on Saturday I went and got groceries and came home was washed the siding out back and then out front ... I still got to clean the windows (but I hate cleaning windows!) I also found time to do the Wii and then I read until bedtime.<br /><br />~LaTeR~ (hopefully it won't be as long til the next post)~Tina's Blog~http://www.blogger.com/profile/00876237076990109688noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1137942671303021069.post-6200088429665351942009-02-23T19:25:00.002-05:002009-02-23T19:59:46.938-05:00Project Sort of Complete<div align="justify">I finished the blanket today. ;) In between being sick ... I've got to block it then I'll get a picture of it so I can post. That will be later in the week because tomorrow I have practice and Wednesday I have counseling. Wednesday will be a very sad day due to having to tell my counselor good bye but I think I have decided not to continue with my counseling. If I see that I need to start back then I'll leave that option open. </div><div align="justify">Now I'm going to start reading ... I bought me 2 new books Saturday by Karen <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Kingsbury</span>. I have a Robert <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Whitlow</span> book and a Beth Moore book I'd like to read. Really I've got lots of books on my agenda to get read so I think now will be a good time to start. Going to start out w/the Shack ... I've heard mixed reviews on it. You can check out my bookshelf at the following link. <a id="ctl00_ctl00_M_UT_WebAddressLink" href="http://www.shelfari.com/tina29646">http://www.shelfari.com/tina29646</a> This link is from a pastor that does not agree with someone reading the shack <a href="http://http//www.marshillchurch.org/search/results?q=the+shack">http://http://www.marshillchurch.org/search/results?q=the+shack</a> This pastor tells you to read it and let it stretch you but not to let it replace your scripture reading it's a fiction book <a href="http://http//www.perrynoble.com/2009/01/27/how-do-you-feel-aboutthe-shack/">http://http://www.perrynoble.com/2009/01/27/how-do-you-feel-aboutthe-shack/</a>. </div><div align="justify">Well it's time to watch Monday night <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">TV</span> ...

If you follow me on twitter or <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">facebook</span> then you know how yesterday was. I'll recap here what's been going on. :) Let's see last week we had our year in Auditors at work and they were back this week well that is until Wednesday. Then we had another set of auditors come in Monday of this week and they were asking for stuff from 2005 and 2006 ... yep FUN FUN ... but it really hasn't been that bad. It's been lots of extra work but I haven't stressed as much as I thought I would. Wednesday I left work early but told the auditors I'd be back and ready to answer questions on Thursday morning. Well I had gotten off work early on Wednesday to go to my daughters ultra sound with her and she ended up being admitted to the hospital for fluids. Come to find out her amniotic fluid was low was why she was having to have the fluids run by IV. So I called my boss when I got home last night and explained to him that I wasn't sure if I'd be at work Thursday but would come in if things were <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">ok</span> with my daughter ... she was having another ultra sound to check the amniotic fluid and if it was up she would be able to go home if not we were told they would take the baby. Well her fluid was up to 14 this morning so she got to go home. I'm thankful for all my friends who sent up prayers for Meagan and Sierra yesterday and last night. :) So needless to say this has been a very interesting week for me. </div><div align="justify">Then tonight I had counseling and found out that next Wednesday evening will be my last session. :( My counselor is moving out of state ... so that was and is going to be very sad for me. She told me she would recommend me to another counselor that she felt like I would do well with but said that it was my decision. I about cried when she told me but I was able to control it. Guess I just know how far I've come since I've been seeing her. In fact I've thought several times that I was almost to the point of where I wouldn't be going much longer but it was such a blow tonight finding out that she is leaving. I thought about it on my way home and was reminded of an email I once received about how some people come into our lives for a season or two or three and sometimes forever. I know that if it weren't for my counselor I'd probably still be stuck in a rut somewhere and I've made great progress and I'm really going to miss her but will stay in touch with her. I'll be able to email her and still share things with her about my children and soon to be granddaughter. :) Still debating if I will see another counselor or not but I just feel like my counselor is not replaceable and that maybe it's just time for me to not really end that season but end that season if that makes sense. It does to me so I guess that's all that matters. </div><div align="justify">Oh yeah just found out today for sure that our practice is being moved from Sunday afternoons to Tuesday evenings and I think I'm EXCITED about that. I'll have to get use to going on Tuesdays after work but once I get the schedule change down pat I'll be adjusted to it. That's the only draw back to be a scheduled person is when you have a change in your schedule it really messes you up. LOL Knowing that you have OCD makes it a little easier to be able to tell why things are just driving you crazy. It's not that I don't like change because change can be a good thing some times it just takes me a little bit to adjust. Well since I am such a scheduled person even down to my bed time I've got to stop here so I can head toward the bed now.

The past 2 nights so far I've come home from work and CLEANED up and out. Monday night I worked in my attic and my sons' room until I was too tired to do any more. So tonight when I got home we started back on his room, He's still got a few things left in his room to do but his closet has been cleaned out and put back in an orderly fashion. :) I've left him in charge of straightening out what's left and pointed out things I think he needs to work on. Then I moved on to the living room and laundry room. I cleaned the desk area but still got the filing to do. (Not one of my favorite things to do even when I'm in a cleaning mood.) Cleaned up the living room and then pulled everything that was movable out of the laundry room and cleaned up the swept the dust up. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">LOL</span> The laundry room wouldn't have been that bad but I moved a flower into my laundry room the beginning of winter and it shed every where making the worst mess every had to wipe everything down and shake everything out. Now I've got the kitchen and my room left ... I think my room will be the hardest of all. :( I've got tons of stuff I need to figure out how to organize. Think I'll start in my closet, then the bathroom leaving the bedroom itself to last. :) </div><div align="justify">Well tomorrow is hump day and the last day at work on the good auditors (that's what my boss calls them) they are leaving sometime after lunch. The other auditors will be there until Friday ... well that is one will be working on Friday the other 5 or 6 are leaving Thursday afternoon headed back to Denver. :) It's really been ok with the auditors as far as I'm concerned and I'm just hoping that we get great news and that we've done a great job and that they didn't find very many errors. Time will tell. </div><div align="justify">PS Tomorrow I'm going to the doctor w/my daughter ... I'll get to see Sierra and I'm SO EXCITED!!! I can't wait until she gets here so I can hold her and spank her little butt!! LOL She's already rotten and she's not even here yet.</div><div align="justify">~LaTeR~</div><div align="justify">God is GOOD, He is still in Control and He's Worthy to be Praised and Honored!!!</div>~Tina's Blog~http://www.blogger.com/profile/00876237076990109688noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1137942671303021069.post-5431476105237831632009-02-15T20:21:00.003-05:002009-02-15T20:36:04.538-05:00Project Update<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_zwPXOui-6ZI/SZjCHUQUaoI/AAAAAAAABLY/KM8FFNyM6hg/s1600-h/Project+003.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303201992180787842" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_zwPXOui-6ZI/SZjCHUQUaoI/AAAAAAAABLY/KM8FFNyM6hg/s320/Project+003.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_zwPXOui-6ZI/SZjCHTgIMRI/AAAAAAAABLQ/VZEwlfeQI54/s1600-h/Project+001.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303201991978660114" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_zwPXOui-6ZI/SZjCHTgIMRI/AAAAAAAABLQ/VZEwlfeQI54/s320/Project+001.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div>Well I've finally taken a picture of the project so I could post an updated picture. I think I have 20 more rows to go (15 of those are the pattern rows then 5 just plain on knitting rows) then I have to pick up stitches on each side and do 4 rows to the sides. Never done anything like that w/my knitting so that will be a learning experience for me and I hope that I don't mess it up. Might have to just finish it up w/those 8 rows missing. We'll see and I'll keep you posted on how I'm doing. Did an up close shot so you could see the front and back side. :) Not to happy w/the lighting on the picture I took of the over all project. </div><div>~LaTeR~</div><div>God is Good, He is still in Control and He's Worthy to be Praised and Honored!!!</div><br /><br /><div></div></div>~Tina's Blog~http://www.blogger.com/profile/00876237076990109688noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1137942671303021069.post-16170222326959799512009-02-14T18:01:00.004-05:002009-02-14T18:56:59.064-05:00Happy Valentine's Day!!!Last night we (Meagan, Kyle and I) kept Dallas. He belongs to Meagan's aunts friend. It wasn't that bad ... we went to I-Hop and then Dallas went to sleep on the way home. :) Not sure what time he woke up but Kyle got up with him. I heard them in the kitchen so I got up at the same time Meagan was getting up. Decided on oatmeal for his breakfast and that was a site ... wish I could have gotten a video of that. I'm guessing he'd never had oatmeal before, he spit it out then wouldn't let me use the spoon to rake it off his face. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">LOL</span> He did end up eating the oatmeal though. After his mom came to pick him up Meagan and Kyle left to go home and me and my son got ready to go.<br />Meagan and Kyle were going to Anderson as were me and my son. They went to the Jockey Lot while me and my son went to Hobby Lobby, Books a Million, and then we met up with them at the Anderson Mall. I did find another all EDGES puzzle, and we found a board we could use to put on the card table so we can work the New York City puzzle we bought a few weeks back. At the book store I found Sierra a book and I found a <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">turtle</span> that's a <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">magnifier</span>. :) (it will come in handy when we work the all EDGE puzzle wish we had of had one with the sports all EDGE puzzle we just finished) At the mall found the little knives I had been hunting for at Christmas but couldn't find so now I'll have them next time I need them. :) Got my son a very expensive hat ... not sure how I got suckered into that but I did tell him I'd buy him a hat guess I should have given him a price limit. (Lesson Learned) Left the mall and I wanted to go in the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Lifeway</span> Christian Bookstore and got me the WOW Hits 2009 (Great CD) So now I'm home relaxing watching <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">tv</span> and trying to stay awake. :)<br />~<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">LaTeR</span>~<br />God is Good, He is still in Control and He's Worthy to be Praised and Honored!!!~Tina's Blog~http://www.blogger.com/profile/00876237076990109688noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1137942671303021069.post-14848175501603417822009-02-13T18:33:00.002-05:002009-02-13T18:45:14.351-05:00WOW It's Finished!!!<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zwPXOui-6ZI/SZYDl_E9spI/AAAAAAAABLA/JI5k-YtUq7g/s1600-h/Puzzle+020.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5302429562397635218" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zwPXOui-6ZI/SZYDl_E9spI/AAAAAAAABLA/JI5k-YtUq7g/s320/Puzzle+020.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Finished the puzzle last night right before 10 and it had a missing piece. Well I thought my son had hid some puzzle pieces because he had been kidding around about hiding them so he could be the one who finished it. :) Well I found 2 pieces that had fallen off under the table upside down they blended in with the carpet. So that left 1 piece and I was hunting for it ... I asked my son this morning if he would get the piece he hid and he was like I was picking on you. So I looked again for the one missing piece and I found it in the bag that the puzzle had came in. :) So now we've got it set up so we can glue it and I've got to measure it so I can get a frame for it. </div><div>Can't believe I'm going to say this but I think I wouldn't mind working another one of these crazy puzzles. My son on the other hand said "Can't you buy me a regular puzzle?" We picked out a puzzle a couple of weeks ago but got to figure out where we can work it because my card table isn't big enough. Wal-Mart has a table I started to buy when I got the one I got now may have to get it but got to justify buying a long table first. Guess it could be useful for taking outside to use for potting flowers. </div><div>~LaTeR~</div><div>God is GOOD, He is Still in Control and He is Worthy to be PRAISED and HONORED!!!</div>~Tina's Blog~http://www.blogger.com/profile/00876237076990109688noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1137942671303021069.post-35267971503246594532009-02-11T22:39:00.004-05:002009-02-11T22:46:35.198-05:00WOW making ProgressThe first picture you see was taken Wednesday night after I finished working on the puzzle and the second one was taken Thursday night.

Meagan guessed 15 pounds blonde hair and blue eyes. Now she is saying blonde changing to red or red changing to blonde. Meagan's guess for tonight is I don't know. Kyle thinks bigger than 6.7 pounds. I'll post an update later on about this. =)~Tina's Blog~http://www.blogger.com/profile/00876237076990109688noreply@blogger.com1
