My sister...

Growing up, my sister and I used to torture each other practically...my sister used play this song and music video to make me cry. I was probably around 5 or 6 but the scars still remain. To this day, this video still haunts me.

Can anyone please comment on the idea of lasik eye correction? I want personal stories, pros and cons, advice...really anything on this topic. I am thinking of being consulted about it due to my disgust of contact lenses and hate the dependency on glasses...please help!!

and a rrrredhead at that....

I just yelled out to Andy in the other room to ask him what kind of animal would I be...his answer yelled back...A SQUIRREL!! I couldn't help but laugh because it just takes me back to my old habits of liking/catching a boy! It was indeed a most befuddling thing!

Just to clarify some things...

I want to just bluntly say that NO, I did not vote for President Obama. However, though I do not agree with some of his proposed policies, I will continue to PRAY for him and our country for strength, protection, and guidance. I find his presidential election to be a very defining moment in history and completely respect and admire it.

The thing that does alarm me is the pressure that we now have not only on ourselves as a country but also the pressure from the world. This is going to be a trial like no other for our beloved nation and I do find that we are embarking on something that is beyond a catchy slogan. As a Christian that is constantly mocked and judged for my faith (even when joked about stereotypically from fellow bloggers) I will still plant my feet strong and firmly in my beliefs. Not in a way that shoves a faith down your throat, but in a way that I can only turn my cheek and pray for my sake and yours...so that we can coexist in a world that has proven to tear down many walls. The one thing that may comfort me more than some is my faith that God is in control of this world...and it may be dark at times...but light still shines.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

Sing with me now...

Definitely in my Top 3 all time favorite Disney...I watched this movie over and over when I was little and I can still remember the words to every song. Just thought I would take you back...

Leaves

Just a little suggestion...if you have not been to Cades Cove or it has been quite some time...I highly suggest making a quick trip. We went on a spur of the moment trip today and it was incredibly refreshing to be around such gorgeous scenery. The leaves are just amazing. It literally looks like that "happy tree" painter that used to be on tv went to town on God's landscape. It really makes you thankful to live near such a natural blessing.

Alright...


Let's see what he can do. Lord, I pray for guidance.

Oh Fulmer...

I actually feel a little sad about this for some reason. He couldn't get it together and was put in a pressure cooker set on high. However, when you are being paid an astronomical amount of money for coaching and will probably get a huge sum for leaving...my sympathy goes out the door. I wish him the best.

Oh, I want you to know that I am the reason for the horrible football seasons since I graduated in 2005. When they screwed me over with my graduate degree...I put a curse on their precious football team. Hate to tell you guys...it won't end...the pain will never END.

Debra Paget???



There is a nail tech who works at the salon where I get my hair done. She is adorable and sweet...but I think she is a bit crazy. A few months ago, she brought in this exact picture from a newspaper clipping that is a picture of Debra Paget from the 10 Commandments to give to me. She couldn't wait to tell me that she opened up her paper and saw this picture and thinks I look EXACTLY like her. If any of you can explain this to me...please go ahead. I think this is an amazing compliment but VERY far stretched. To be a bit vain...I did post one my favorite wedding pictures to compare...but seriously...Debra Paget??

She was fabulous!!

Sing and preach it, girl!!

Beep

So the other evening, I ran to the mart de Wal to pick up a few items...and of course spent the majority of the time in the Christmas section planning my outdoor light decor in my head (yes, this was before Halloween...I am my Papaw's granddaughter). While walking around I came across an individual that caught me off guard...and my laugh. See...I was born without the neurotransmitter that filters circumstances before laughter. What I mean is...I laugh at the most inappropriate things and the wrong times. IT'S NOT MY FAULT!! It makes me feel bad...but maybe I can explain this person.

You know that cell phone service commercial with the guy (or inner self) explaining why he can't come to the phone because he doesn't have enough bars to get his messages from his friends going to Paris and he has to spend the weekend with the emo/goth twins. One of the twins is dancing to horrible techno music with one of the ribbon wands while the other is holding the radio....ring a bell? Well, I love those commercials and that is my favorite one. Anywho, I RAN INTO THE DANCING TWIN!! Tight jeans, black hair, and ALL. It caught me off guard so fast and I couldn't help but burst out a laugh and a nano second after tried to cover it with a cough. Then I quickly scurried behind the cd rack to catch composure...but that commercial kept playing in my head. I don't think he noticed...but I feel bad. It's justified when it is a commercial, right??

Heads up: My Papaw is putting up his famous Christmas light display after 4 years...and I'm helping so I can learn the tricks of the trade!!
