Finally!

It's finally Wednesday! It's the last day of work and then two days off! I can't wait, I'm starting to wear out. lol

I got lunch dishes done and submitted the poem to the poetry contest at blue Mountain cards.

My goal this year is to submit something each month. January was through a contest at work and February will be this blue mountain contest. Although, I might submit another one sometime in March to blue mountain I won't count that as submitting a poem because I made it a rule that it has to be to a different place every month or at least one I've not submitted to in a while.

Anywho I will let you go now. I will keep you posted on more later.

By His grace

Not by works

Not my own accord

But by His grace I am saved

Deeds don't save you

Works can't help you

But His grace can save you

You can't save yourself

I can't save myself

You can't save me

But by His grace He can

Save us both

Through His love and mercy He sent His

Son

And by

His grace we are saved

Crazy day

It was kind of a crazy day yesterday we took a trip into brazil.

Brazil, IN not the country. Anyways so we went and visited grandma judy, grandpa densford, anut Lena and grandma W. We didn't spend a lot of time at one place so while it was a good visit it was a very fast visit.

Right now I am nursing a cup of coffee and wait for the dog food to be done. The boys (Jake and Gollum) are having hamburger, with rice, peas, carrots, and broccoli.

I think tomorrow I might post a poem on here.

Well got to go.

A busy day

Yesterday was a busy day...we moved a few things around and got rid of some furniture plus cleaned the house and of course we did some laundry.

Today mom says she has laundry coming out of her ears.

Levi should be coming home to eat lunch with us soon. I'm glad cause I'm hungry already today.

Today is my long day at work....but after today three days off so I'm glad for that!

Well that is it..nothing more to tell about or to say.

Adventures at midnight

Well Levi sure does have a knack for catching nails with his tires. At Twelve thirty Levi calls he was in a parking lot in connersville (about a half hour away from us) he ran over a nail and he needs to change the tire. Ten minutes later he calls back he needs help he can't get the lug nut loose. So dad gets up out of bed and gets dressed real quick to go and get him.

I went with dad to help keep him awake. So with a team effeort from Levi and dad they got the lug nut loose. ( it was an old lug nut and was rounded out) So at about two in the morning we got home. Poor papa was tired this morning.

Well got to go moving furniture.

Happy Valentines Day!

I personally never really got why we celebrate valentines day. We should be showing everyone love, that we love them every single day. Not by flowers that die or teddy bears that collect dust, nor by chocolate, But by our actions. It's the simple things that speak the loudest.

I have to work today...I mean I get to work today! I like my job I really do, but I'm so not motivated today. Is anyone else having that problem? It's just cold and gray outside, I didn't want to get out from under the covers today.

I better get going I have to leave for work in a bit.

A New post today!

YEAH!

So I am going to enter another poetry contest this one is through Blue Mountain cards. I havn't written anything for it yet, but I am going to soon. I just have to get inspired. I've been trying to write something everyday most days its just dribble to try and clear my mind. lol

In More exciting news I finally got to where I can paint decent looking roses with water color! Yeah!!!! I even painted a bowl of fruit that I was pretty happy with. Not the best painting in the world, but one of my best. I'm going to get a folder to put all my paintings in cause I can't keep all of them on the wall not enough wall space. LOL Don't think I will be able to sell them not quite good enough for that, unless they want abstract that was supposed to be still life.

Don't know if I will work on my Jake and Gollum comic today or tonight, I will just have to see how the rest of the day goes.

Well I better let you go. Gollum is tried and ready to go to bed for a few days.

I better take him out and pick up his toys. (It's Jake's turn to be out now. Gotta love the life of two dogs that don't get along but live in the same house.)
