Later, much later

I have recently realized that my blogging spirit is rather low. I look at these other blogs and I say to myself 'wow, mine is amateur compared to there's.'
So I came up with a new idea.
Instead of writing long, boring stories that eventually make people irritated enough to leave, I've created a new way. Short little sentences or paragraphs telling an entire story, in just enough time for you to meet your doctors appointment.
Not quite sure if it's going to work, but you never know.

Say 'I Am'

I am that voice inside your head, telling you this is a bad idea.
I am the panting dog standing at your side in unwavering loyalty.
I am the best friend who has walked along your path and always will.
I am the mother who spent every day of your life giving you my heart and soul.
I am the sister who looked up at you and saw a role model like no other.
I am the sun and the moon and the stars.
I am the end and the beginning.
I am God.
And I Am With You Always.

Complaints with a Side Order of Lemons

Could our Government do any more damage? Seriously?
It's getting out of hand, I'm afraid. When is someone going to stand up and Say 'Enough'? We sit back and we watch as they rearrange the Constitution, destroy the meaning of Freedom. Where is our freedom now?
It's locked up underneath Obama's desk, that's where it is. Along with freedom of Speech and our lovely Right to Bear Arms.

What happened to United We Stand, Divided We Fall?
This nation isn't UNITED. We're all running around in different directions, taking sides and ruining what our forefathers created. We're ignoring what REALLY matters.
Plus, we're taking order from a bunch of old guys in black robes. How creepy is THAT?
Our religions are at war as well. So much so, that the more they compete, the more the faith wavers. It puts a new perspective into place and makes you think 'Is all of this REALLY true?'

We are so blinded by the new things, that we leave behind the abused ones. We turn away from a friend because they can't afford to hang out with you.
Or shut the door on a teenager in crutches. Watch as a mother of three struggles with watching her kids and juggling the groceries because she can't afford to buy a CAR.
What about the people lining the street corners? They can't afford houses. They can't afford school, so they can't get a job. Without a job, they have no money.


And I share with you a quote from a movie I watched just last night, only because it got me thinking.
"One day, somebody's got to make a stand. One day, somebody's got to say ENOUGH."
And so, I leave you with that.

Tra-la-la peoples,
Lynn

Hatred

I find, that nighttime is where my most emotional moments begin and end. Every night, I always seem to hit some kind of emotional bump. Wether it be from listening to a song, reading a story or in tonights case, watching a video.
Now, I felt horrible when I clicked on one of his video's and realized I hadn't watched him since the beginning of the year. I felt ashamed, because for years, I watched his video's. He made me laugh, brightened my day and inspired me. His name, is Joey.
He is known on YouTube as JoeyBlondeWolf2. He is not afraid to speak his mind and nearing the end of last year, his subscribers dropped from nearly five thousand to one thousand. People started talking, making up stories and drenching his name in horrific affairs. People would take sides, going against him and ruining him.
Now, Joey is bisexual and not ashamed of it. And today, I saw he'd updated. It said Blog 12: Coming out and Gay Hate.
I felt instantly angry. It meant someone or something had triggered it. I watched it and half way through the video, I began to cry. It was almost sad.
I mean, I don't need the steps to coming out, because I know I'm not gay. But what he said reflected what I believe. He expressed everything that I want to shout at people when they badmouth Homosexuals and Lesbians.



This boy, turning 23 very soon (Yes, I know he doesn't look it.), Has always, always been there. For anyone and everyone.
I felt like I'd missed something, whenever I'd see he had put up a new video. But I have been so busy, I never had time to stop and watch.
I am so glad I did so today.

There are so many people out there, who close their minds and their hearts, because they're afraid of what other people will say about them. Personally, I SUPPORT homosexuals and lesbians and I don't give a DAMN if people hate me for it.
There are more important things to worry about, than hurting people because of who they choose to love. There is WAR and MURDER out there and all you can worry about is that the person standing next to you might love their same gender.
All you're doing, is creating more of what this world needs to get rid of.
HATE
And for every church out there, that turns away a gay person from their doors, think about it. Are YOU listening to God's word?
You say he loves everyone, even the sinners.
You are sinning by turning them away, by talking about them behind their backs and by telling them they're going to Hell.

Answer me this.
If it's so WRONG.
Why did God create humans who harbor these feelings?


This world is ending.
What will you do to stop that from happening?

Rainy Day Fun

So, I got a phone call from my grandmother last night saying there was a bad thunderstorm coming our way. I thought, okay, cool, I can see it out the door. I watched it's beauty from the comfort of my couch.
About an hour later, it was over and the sun was out.
Twenty minutes later, I was seven years old again........



Cartwheels anyone?


Floating along.....



More cartwheels


Our own personal waterslide.....


BELLY FLOP!


Slide Kolby slide!





You want me to do WHAT? (Kolbys carrying another crawfish to our bucket.)


And to end it all Kolbys 'OMG a crawfish has my toe' Dance. =]




We didn't plan on getting wet. Just walking around.


Well. That worked out well. I want to thank Brian for giving me the idea! Because fifteen mins away, he was doing the same thing! Wish I could have been there to enjoy it with him.

Another Day, Another Dollar

(I Just love doing this Daybook thing. =] So...here's another one. My version of 'A Simple Woman's Daybook.)
But I guess you'd call this one a 'Teenage Daybook'....?

Outside my window...The sky is blue, it's pleasantry warm and makes me want to go out side and lay in the grass

I am thinking...about how sore I'm going to be in the morning

From the learning rooms...Still working on that financial aid.

I am thankful for... everyone family member who came to my Grad party today. THANK YOU SO MUCH for everything you've done and given me. I'll continue to make all of you proud. =]

From the kitchen...I just dug in our fridge and found POT ROAST! I am so happy.

I am wearing... red exercise pants and a blue and white 80's shirt.

I am reading...the World History Atlas. I found it while attempting to 'Declutter' my room. (Take notice that I said 'Attempt')

I am hoping.....that I won't get sick again. Twice is enough for one month, thanks.

I am creating... a horse drawing. It isn't going down too well. Maybe I should stick to mythical bunnies?

I am hearing... the quiet sound of the air conditioner and my birds sporadic chirping.

Around the house...no one's home but me. It's so quiet. I'm thinking of ordering a sandwich from domino's.....or maybe Tessa will bring me a subway sandwich?

One of my favorite things... sitting with my dog. He's got heartworms, so now, every moment I spend with him matters more than anything.

A few plans for the rest of the week... Sunday-Work Monday- Work Tuesday- pool work Wensday- Bank, Brian's Graduation Thursday-Out with Nanie, Tiff's Graduation Friday-Work Saturday-Work and Sunday- Church then work.

Here is a picture thought I felt like sharing with you..

Cabbage licking with Kate and Heather

Did Venus Blow Your Mind?

Outside my window...it's already dark, but it's so beautiful....

I am thinking...about every victim of the Holocaust and that I pray to God that it never happens again.

From the learning rooms...It's a never ending flow of Holocaust books, video shots and math.

I am thankful for... everything. Family. Friends. Work buddies. My dog, my bird and everyone I have ever met and will soon meet.

From the kitchen...Mexican casserole

I am wearing... my work pants and a white tank top

I am reading...Lover Eternal A Novel of The Black Dagger Brotherhood

I am hoping.....to get a few scholarships.

I am creating... that Hetalia drawing I mentioned last time. Still working on it. It's nearly through!

I am hearing... 'Train' sing their wonderfully astronomical song 'Drops Of Jupiter'

Around the house...mom's schoolwork and babbling kids

One of my favorite things... watching the rain

A few plans for the rest of the week... Thursday: Work and leaving for Toldeo Bend. Friday-Sunday: Forget the rest of the world, college and work. It's time to rest and get inspiration for all my overdue stories.
