I'm just venting.....

Ok, I just feel like talking about things I am tired of, so if you don't feel like reading a not so positive blog, then stop now!

I am tired of school, seriously I have my Masters, why can't I get a job I enjoy, pays decent, and has decent hours? Second, I am sick of my daughter whining all the time. She was not always like this, but lately she whines and fights with me about everything. So I told her tonight that this was her last night to act like that. Starting tomorrow she is going to act like she is 4 years old! We are going to do a mini-celebration of her growing out of this baby stage. So anyone who wants to eat dinner with us can, it will be like we are celebrating her birthday, again. Third, I am tired of losers. My definition of losers are those who care way more about themselves and their selfish desires than they care about those closest to them. And those same people think others should bend overs backward for them. LOCO!! I know I am not perfect, but this is my blog so I can say what I want. Finally, I am tired of not being home. I feel like I come home in time to sleep these days. My poor dog is so happy when we get home and I feed her and go to bed.

Well that's it for now. I do want you all to notice on all these I said I was tired, not mad or even frustrated. Just tired. Please don't think I am this person who has all these negative thoughts going off in my head all the time. I just needed some venting time.

My positive thought....
I wanted to put a verse on here that I really like. I am reading a book and this was in there, and I thought it was a great point. It is from Genesis and Joseph is speaking to his brothers, and I thought this was a great attitude. It really sums up to me, the way Joseph lived his life. We have all experienced bad things in life, but I don't know any who were sold into slavery, put into prison, and then forgotten about about those who they helped. Not to minimize anyone's bad experiences, but I think we could learn from Joseph.

Genesis 50:19
But Joseph said to them, "Don't be afraid. Am I in the place of God? You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives. "

God does have great things intended for us all. When we focus on him we can have the life he intended for us. Awesome!

Happy Easter!

Today was a great day! Aspen and I both had a blast! It started with us going to church at my grandparent's church. It is always so fun to go to church with family. Then we went to lunch at my grandparent's house and got to hang out with some family. Aspen had fun hunting eggs and playing with her cousins. As I watched Aspen hunting the Easter eggs, I remembered all the fun times I had with my cousins at my grandparent's house. We would have so much fun hunting Easter eggs, playing basketball, making tents, going to the zoo, and so on. I love my family!

Then Aspen and I went to a get together with my neighbor's family, who treat Aspen and I like family. We got to have cascarones smashed on our heads. Cascarones are egg shells filled with confetti or flour. Everyone would chase each other smashing the eggs on one another, or we would try to sneak up on each other and surprise the other person. Needless to say, Aspen and I left with white hair! We also enjoyed some great food and some Mexican candy. I just love my family and friends. I am so blessed and I cannot imagine what I would do with out everyone! I love you all!

Jump girls! Jump!

Come on Jordan, Let her have it!

My first time

Well, one of my best friends told me I need to start blogging ....so I am going to try it out! I really don't know when I will have time to do this, but who knows I just might love it. It may end up being a place where I put write random things that no one really cares to read, but I at least get to say them! So my random thought for today is..... why? So many "why" questions pop in our head every day! Why is this idiot driving 30mph on the highway? Why do people take pictures of themselves doing stupid things? Why do we have to work so hard? Why do people get on my nerves? I wish I had answers to these questions. I really do, but I don't and I am afraid I never will. I did hear today someone talking about why must we (Christians) love others even our enemies and expect nothing in return? And the answer was because non-Christians do not know HOW to love others. They can "love" their own way, but if you don't know God's love then you really don't know love. I never had really thought about it like that. I always thought of it as a choice not to love others, but non-Christians really don't know how to love because they have never experienced true love or if they have experienced it they have chosen to turn their back on it. It is so sad to me that people are so lost, not that I am perfect, but at least I have experienced love and I must share that love! So for the few people who are reading this:) Go out and LOVE!
( Wow now people can see how my thoughts can go from one subject to another in like 2 seconds)
