Online quizes

Either you love them or you hate them. LOL

This one I liked! On the site, it had a picture of Jamie on the side.


Who's Your Celebrity Chef Match?
Molly, your celebrity chef match is The Naked Chef

No cause for alarm! Your cooking counterpart doesn't sauté, simmer, or season in his birthday suit. It's just his take on food prep that's naked. Like Jamie Oliver, you've probably got a low-key, no-frills approach to cuisine — and maybe to life, too!Whether you're cooking for company or for yourself, you're keen on creating succulent flavors that make your taste buds do summersaults — without spending the whole day slaving over a hot stove. After all, you've got other things to do and places to be. And your knack for keeping up with culinary trends and stripping cooking down to the basics will make your cooking a winning welcome at any meal.

Sickie, sickie, sickie...

Well, yesterday the doctor confirmed that ds6 has a stomach virus. I "knew" that was all it was, but after getting a notice last week that a child in his class was diagnosed (sp?) with Bacterial Menegitis....even a seasoned mother can have her worries. The poor thing had been sick since Friday night....so DH and I decided to take him in for a visit. Our doctor is wonderful! They checked him out real good and even ran a CBC to make sure nothing was going on in his blood that we should know about! Just told me to take him home and make sure he drank plenty of gatorade. So far, so good!

This morning has been good. He has really gotten his appetite back! (Thank you!) and seems very restless! I know, it is hard for a 6 year old to stay seated when he has been sick for several days. I told him he can use his energy tomorrow at school! LOL

It has been COLD here lately! My DS16 asked me last night when we were going to turn the heat on...I told him when his father and I decided we needed to! I also gave him that "go put some more clothes on" look! He was standing there in a t-shirt and shorts!!!!!!!

Next time I will tell him, "fine I will turn the heat on, but he will get the next oil bill"...that usually will quiet him up. I love him...but sometimes....LOL

Where have I been?

Goodness...I am such a bad blogger. LOL I really thought, when I started this that I would just be typing every day with all sorts of witty comments, enlightening conversation and insights! Then REALITY set in!!!

I have 7 people (including myself, of course), 2 cats, 1 dog and an aquarium of fish here to deal with on a daily basis. I thought I would have time to not only type, but to think of things to type about.

There is something on my mind. I am just sick and disgusted over that woman who threw her beautiful little boys into the freezing water to their deaths!

Every time I think of this...or other stories like this (and unfortunately, there are others) only one scripture comes to mind:

2 Timothy 3:1-5: 3 But know this, that in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here. 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, self-assuming, haughty, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, disloyal, 3 having no natural affection, not open to any agreement, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, without love of goodness, 4 betrayers, headstrong, puffed up [with pride], lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God, 5 having a form of godly devotion but proving false to its power; and from these turn away. (NWT)

"Having no natural affection" that is all I can think of concerning these women. Yes, I know there are some out there that are genuinely sick, but then you would HAVE to be sick to kill anyone, lest of all your own children. I don't buy that as an excuse or a reason for them to not be put into jail for the rest of their natural lives! (Part of me wants the death penalty, but I am trying to show mercy)

On another...positive note..... I have a family that I love, a home that I am content with and my needs are taken care of....I AM THANKFUL for all that I have. I am also trying to view things FROM a thankful heart.

That is all for now....I hope to type more later and more often.

The loss of farm land

I am so sad.... the large farm across the street from my house has been put on the market! I am not 100 percent sure, but I'm positive that it has been rezoned for a sub-division. Can you imagine how many houses they can put on 240 acres!!

Besides that, everything has been pretty quiet here.
