I am making a promise to myslef that I will blog on here at least once a month. I can vent on here and just write whatever comes to my mind. Please forgive me blog!!!!

Thanksgiving 2008

I am thankful for being alive. I thank God everyday for blessing me and giving me the strength to wake up to see another day. I am very blessed to have everything that I have and also for the people in the life. Sometimes I wonder, why I am friends with the people who are my friends and also why I put up with so much........but then I think about everything that I have been through in my life and I realize that it makes me a stronger person in the end! I am getting stronger and stronger each day!!!!!! Life wasn't meant to be easy, it is meant to be rough and hard at times. I know that I don't say this often, but I love all my friends and family and wouldn't trade them for the world!!!!!! Everybody comes into your life for a reason and even if it is for a short while, they came into your life for a purpose!!! I am blessed and pray and continue to stay blessed throughout my entire life.

Life is confusing!?!?!?!?

So I have always wanted to be an attorney when I was a little girl. That was my dream and I love watching shows were they have attorneys in them. It excites me very much! However, I must say that now that I have graduated from Grad school, I need to go back to school to obtain my degree in Law School. BUT, the problem is that I am not certain if I am absolutely ready for this or not. I mean dont get me wrong, when I put my mind to something, I get it done one way or another! But this is different, this is something that I want so bad that I can just taste it!!!!! My only fear is failing at what I really want so bad!!!! I have never wanted something so bad and now that I am so close to achieving this, I dont want to mess up! So the question now is if I will stay in my city and attend law school or if I will go out of state and attend Law School. Apart of me wants to get away from this city an try something new and another part is saying for me to stay here and go to school. Choices, choices!!!! I dont know what to do!!!!!!! I just pray that I make the right decision and that the decision is what I want!!

THANK GOD for ELECTRICITY!!!!!!!!

So in Kentucky we received the after effect of Hurrican IKE on this past Sunday!! It was HORRIBLE......we just got the winds, no rain, JUST WINDS!!! The winds were so strong that it knocked out more than 300 thousand homes and left them with no electricity. My electricity went out around 11am and came back on around 9pm. I THANK GOD!!! I was getting so bored without electricity in my apartment, I couldnt sleep and I was just staring out the window with the patio door open to get a good breeze in my apartment! It completely shut everything down and our state was in an Emergency!!!!!!!! I have NEVER seen nothing like it! I just left church and saw tree limbs covering parts of streets and laying on peoples houses. I immediately went to Walmart to attempt to grab me something to eat, toilet paper and water. I didn't make it out of the store!!! The electricity went completely out and I was stuck at the check out line. I left my cart and walked out of Walmart and immediately came home. When I arrived home, I knew my electricity was out! NOTHING was open, I couldnt even eat anything for fear of opening my refrigerator and letting all the cool air out. I found an O Charley's open and ate there, the only meal for the day!!!!! It seemed like everybody was there wanting to eat for there dinner and dessert. What a nightmare!!!!! The news is saying that it will take up to 2 weeks to return everyones electricity back to normal, I just thank God that mine is back on!!! Please pray for our state and for those elderly folks and I hope that everything and everyone is ok!!!!!!

Who said ADULTS can't have fun?????

So today I went to a local park and played an adult game of kickball. I was not at all feeling like playing this game today. Why you ask? I woke up with a headache and had the headache for 4hrs.... it was so painful it was just ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So I went to the game and it turned out to be soooooooo much fun!!!!! We had a good time and it brought out so many memories of my childhood when I played kickball in the street with my family and friends. We play a total of 10 games each game being played on a Sunday. Oh how I feel like a kid again!!!

When will the Storm be over?

The devil is very busy in my family. From the start of the 4th of July up until now there has been issues and problems in my family on both sides of my family. I just don't get it!!! Throughout all this drama, I have wondered if this is a sign for me. A sign meaning that I need to reach out or that this is happening to prepare me for something worse that is getting ready to happen. I try and try to help my family, especially my moms side of the family out and they still don't get it. When will they learn to stop doing what they are constantly doing? Right about now I feel like secluding myself and just staying away from the family, but I cant!!! Its not in me to just leave them and not help them out. But sometimes you got to let them learn the hard way!! I just hope the storm is going to come to an end quickly!!!!!!!!

INDEPENDENT Day!!!!!

Well this 4th of July was a different celebration than previous years. The weather was bad and it was not a good. It rained and rained and rained and it just looked gloomy outside. No sun at all!!!! It was so depressing when the sun was not out yesterday. All plans for a great family bar be que was ruined due to rain!!!!! But my family still w. They went and bar be qued in the rain and believe it or not it was good. The food was good and I didnt stay around for the fireworks. I went to my god fathers house with my god brother and watched them light up fireworks and have a good time. My INDEPENDENCE day was nice but if the sun was shinning it would have been better. But there is always next year!!!!!!
