The Wife Card?

">      Ephesians 5:21 Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God. 22Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.5:25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it.5:28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies.He that loveth his wife loveth himself.   Some do not like the idea of submiting just because they dont understand what it means.When I do it my husband says I am playing the wife card! Husbands have a big resposiblity, he will be held accountable for all that goes on in his home. That is why I let mine have the finaly say, cuz the way I see it, it's on his head if it goes right or wrong.If I have submitted I did my part.Now that doesn't mean I don't give my input, or that I would be asked to do something unhonorable. If you notice the vers says submit one to another and love your wife! So it is not as if he rules over me, that is what many think submision is about.If he loves me as Christ loves his church then I will give him all like I would give Christ.Here is an example,something we are going threw right now.  We do need another car, the ones we have now are in bad shape and my husband is concerned about saftey.  We do not have cash to just buy one and our credit is not in the best of shape. I feel that we should do what we can with the ones we have and that God will provide when the time is right. But it is like my husband has cars on the brain and that is all the can think about. He is in the process of trying to get us a car loan. I feel that is not a good thing to do at this time cuz we will be stuck with a high rate and winter is coming up, the slowest time of year for his job.  I do not want to have to worry about a car payment.  I have told him all this, showed him my position and said, I leave it to you cuz that is your job, it is on you.  He calls that playing the wife card! Like I am sneeking out of my resposiblity lol.  Nope that is not how I see it, he just dosn't like it that its on him, even though that is what God has required of him.

Crazy Baby offensive?

That pic I posted in my journal of the baby doctored up to look like  he had tats and piercings, that I found on a differnt website has caused a stirr in a SAHM group I am apart of.  I found it sad and funny.  I passed it along to that group threw e-mail saying this is funny but I hope it was done on photo shop or something or else that would run along the lines of child abuse.  Well at first I got many e-mails saying how funny and then one saying to the effect that how dare I send such a picture along and that it was objectable to her (granted she is griveing a loss of a child so I will take that at face value, we all have opionons)  But I would of never sent it if I knew it would be such a big deal and besides I have seen much worse come threw that group!  Well today I got slamed in IM by one of the group leaders.  Saying how that hurt my Christian Witness and would Jesus of sent that pic? Well I said Jesus had a sense of humor and I am not Perfect like Jesus yet.  Then she goes on saying it would be best if before I sent any other pics threw the group that I should have them cleared first or if I was going to send some thing that may disrespectful to have a disclaimer on it.  Well duh, if I thought it was disrespectful I wouldnt of sent it along.  And I do not want to walk on eggshells for every post I make, and is it fair to ask me to clear every thing, are they going to ask that of everyone in the group?? Basicaly she said some ppl wanted to report me to TOS for that pic.  ARE YOU KIDDING ME!   OH but dont have hard feelings, just wanted to make me aware of the situation.  Breath Mary.  Ok.  I feel better.  It anitn nothing to get all upset over.  We all have our issues.  There I have vented, I feel better!

">    Oh man, a nightmare boyfriend in the making!  Thanks for ETC's journal for sharing this pic.  As I looked at it my daughter Sophia who is only 3! was sitting on my lap and said "Cute BABY".  I think I am in for some trouble when she becomes a teenager, ya think? LOL  I hope that was just his Halloween costume cuz while it is funny at first, if you think about it for long engh, its sad and scarry it some one did that to thier kid permanate. LOL I can only imagin what the Father looks like! (grinning here heehee).

There was a time when I thought it might be cute if Josh and I for one of our anversery to get matching tounge piercings, thankfuly that was just a phase along with my pink hair.  I did have the pleaser of kissing a guy once in a bar with a tounge stud and I will admit threw my drunken stupier it felt very sexy.  But after reading about it and all the care and health concerns envolved in the whole thing I would rather tread on the safe side. lol Josh can get the same effect if I just pop a piece of candy in my mouth as I kiss him in his sensitive areas.*wink wink*

Why we don't need cable! LOL

">   We have not had cable t.v. for quite some time and really we are doing fine with out it.  Sure we are so tempted to get it but who wants to pay $50 or so a month for only the bare basics?? Not worth it plus what is on but junk anyways?.  Well Josh's dad taped a bunch of "guy" stuff for Josh off of the Discovery channle, Monster Garage and American Chopper and a few other voom voom shows.   It has always been Josh's thing to build his own car or bike some day and frankly, yes, he gets hard when he sees a nice peice of mechinery. So he has dragged me into this fancy too, as I sat and watched the motorcylce shows with him, Huny, You would look so good riding B*tch. LMBO.  What, NO WAy I got to have my own bike, you can be the one to be my B*tch! LOL  We even have looked into getting a bike frame to start our little project together, MAN who has 4,000 to spare for just a good frame!  Besides, I would rather put that money into a missions trip and use it for God's work. lol  But it is fun to covet sometimes, slap slap  bad Mary  bad. lol  But I would look good with my long blonde hair flapping in the wind.

Sure she said her journal was a     But really she was the biggest        Her journal chronicaled her life with her boyfriend (more like room mate)Scott.  It was her safe place to let it all out, to let her true feelings be heard.  Ofcourse she never took any advice she was given by us.  We all told her he was a looser and that there is no futer with him but ugh, she loves the guy!  So when he found her journal you know it all hit the fan and he forced her to delet it.

Annie I just want you to know you are">   and you are very much loved.  You are special and it is not because of who you are with, what you do, or what you say.  You are special because you are YOU.  I will pray that you find all the happyness you truely deserve and that you will find Joy and Peace.  Don't drink Mr. Jack Daniels too fast, for that just will leave ya with a bigger headach in the morning.

Keep In Touch!!!
