Men and how they can crush a women sometimes!
This Sunday was one of those rear days that I felt like dressing up. I don't do this too often but the girls looked so cute today in their dresses that I felt that I should attempt to look nice too. Normally I am a T-shirts and jeans kind of gal, even for Church since we go to a very relaxed one and no one really cares about looks. Mostly I do not have time after getting everyone else ready to do anything for myself. So me taking time in the bathroom to do makeup and me wearing a dress for church is not an often occurrence. And the times I do do any thing I get the hurry up comments from hubby. I was quite pleased as I put on my new bra and girdle I got last month for mom's wedding, it was not as tight and fit good. I could breath. And I went threw my closet disgusted that I did not have much to choose from but I picked out a dress that I had never worn. It was a size 16 and I thought it would be tight, but it was perfect! I was very pleased, my little bit of dieting is working. I was flying high as I was primping in the mirror. Hubby was coming up stairs from his shower in our second bathroom, he yelled "Where's YOUR MOM?" to the kids and they chimed she is getting dressed. I smiled, because I was already dressed and just putting on a little touch of make-up. As he walked by the bathroom to our room he stopped, and asked "Why are you all dressed up?" I said no reason; can't I look nice for church? Then comes the crusher. He said are you going to put on your new girdle with that dress? I stopped dead in mid mascara stroke and looked at him. I thought to my self, don't I look nice? Am I that fat that even with the squeezing undies on I look buldgie? I said to him "Thanks, I am already wearing it!! Don't I like ok?! Oh he knew he screwed up and put his hands up and walked away. And from the other room he did say you do look ok. Well I know I shouldn't have let that kill my spirit but it did.

Another fun day on AOL
9-11 REMEMBER YOUR WAKE UP CALL!
EVERY ONE NEEDS TO VIEW THIS WEBSITE!! Especially the ones who bitch and moan over the coast of the War on Terror and those who are more worried about the economy then our safety. America has such a short memory. Do you remember what you felt that day two years ago? Just because the pictures are not shown, just because our feelings change from day to day, Doesn't mean it never happen, and that the threat of it happening again has gone away. I don't think today should be made a "holiday" but a day of Mourning, a solem day. Maybe called America Remeber YOUR WAKE UP CALL.

What do you say to Mormons?
Let Us Reason Ministries ON cults and Religions
What can one say to a Mormon who comes to their door without it taking hours having only one chance to challenge them.
When Im in a discussion I have them commit to saying they are a Christian. Then I pose a question to them in this manner.
What if I said I was a Mormon and that I can join any church that teaches the bible. I also dont believe Joseph Smith was a true prophet, or that their are modern day prophets and apostles. I dont believe Jesus is an angel in the Spirit family of the Devil, nor that God gives new revelation adding to scripture nor that I can progress to be god of my own world
They would answer, then you are not a Mormon
I would then ask why not? Their reply would be, Because you do not believe what Mormons believe, our priesthood our prophet, you dont believe in eternal progression, or new revelation in scripture!
My reply would then be, This is exactly why you are not a Christian. You dont believe in one God, the finished revelation written by the true prophets, that Jesus is the one true God and that man is a sinner, in need of redemption never to progress to be God !
We do want Mormons to be included in Christianity but they need to come the same way we all did by a new spiritual birth, not by the laws and ordinances of the church. One is born into the kingdom Jn.1:12 not by working they're way.
More family coming in

the little things
Whew, what a busy weekend but it was very nice. And I have so much more excitement ahead of me. Josh's Mom and his aunt are coming into town tomorow night. It was nice having my Mom and her husband down for those few days and the self thing was never even brought up and it was not an issue. Ofcourse right after they left I brought back out the ones of mom and dad and put them right back in thier place. The shelf looks compleet now, before you could just tell it was missing something. Next time I will leave it all out but I will have some of mom and her new husband out. Some times I just stress way too much over the little things and little details. lol. Now on to the next group of guests. The house isn't too bad since I did all that for when mom was coming into town and OH we have our new couch and some rugs. Just the right touch!(will have to post a pic) My main thing I think today is I will do major laundry and I want to scrub the floors and wipe the cabinets out. Ugh and the kids rooms are trashed!
