Five Question Friday..

 

 

1. Can you drive a stick shift?

Yes, plus I ride my own Harley (which you are constantly shifting when in town)

2. What are two foods you just can't eat?

Octopus..when I was little my mom and dad would go to this Japanese place and forever my dad would try to get me to try it...I tried it once and could not figure out why you would want to chew on something that tasted like silly putty...(yes I did try silly putty before) so I guess that would be something else I wouldn't eat..lol 

3. Do you buy Girl Scout Cookies? What is your favorite kind?

Oh yes... Thin Mints baby!!


4. How do you pamper yourself?

I love pedicures and getting my nails done, which both I haven't done in a long time!


5. What is your nickname and how did you get it?

I have many...

Sher Bear.....I got this from my best friend Rhonda and my Father-In-Law...love hearing it...I also had Punky forever until my ex husband and I divorced....I loved that one it just was very endearing to me...but none really now...I miss having a nick name on a everyday basis..

Hope you all have a great weekend!!!

Wordless Wednesday..

I'm sharing a poem with you today for Word Filled Wednesday. It's called "My Name is Pride," by Beth Moore. It is to the point, I love it because it kicks pride in the butt ...

My name is Pride. 

I am a cheater.

I cheat you of your God-given destiny…

because you demand your own way.

I cheat you of contentment…

because you “deserve better than this.”

I cheat you of knowledge…

because you already know it all.

I cheat you of healing…

because you are too full of you to forgive.

I cheat you of holiness…

because you refuse to admit when you are wrong.

I cheat you of vision…

because you’d rather look in the mirror than out a window.

I cheat you of genuine friendship…

because nobody’s going to know the real you.

I cheat you of love…

because real romance demands sacrifice.

I cheat you of greatness in heaven…

because you refuse to wash another’s feet on earth.

I cheat you of God’s glory…

because I convinced you to seek your own.

My name is Pride. I am a cheater.

You like me because you think I’m always looking out for you.

Untrue.

I’m looking to make a fool of you.

God has so much for you, I admit, but don’t worry…

If you stick with me you’ll never know.

--Beth Moore

Many blessings Wednesday My Sweets!

A Brown Thumb Plants a Garden.

I am so excited to try my hand at a garden.  I have had really small ones before, but this one is going to be about 15x20 that is big for me.  I am intimidated about the process but so excited to feed my family something we have grown from our own land.  I too dream of living on a farm, maybe this will be the closest I ever come to it.

I really like these raised beds..But I think I am going to go straight from the ground..

 

 

This is more what it will look like..or this

SO today I will be heading out to an local nursery ask alot of questions, see how much soil will cost to deliver etc.  So stay posted, this will be a fun ride..

Be Free and Breathe Deeply!!

Sometimes we just need to stop what we are doing and do something else, something fun or adventurous! Why do we forget this? Why do we forget that play and fun are as important as working and breathing? Why do we fell guilty sometimes when we take time out to do something for ourselves? WHY???
STOP!!!
Let yourself go a little bit this week/weekend coming up. Let yourself have some fun -- take a break and enjoy life for a little while. Let go of stress - of work - of worries. Just have fun and Breathe Deeply.

Remember how it feels to laugh, to play and to make fun memories.

You are so worth all of this...enjoy, breathe deeply, BE FREE!!!
