My Rant!!!

ONE HOT MAMA

You want to see a mother go from nice to " ONE HOT MAMA" in 0.1 seconds.... mess with her kids.

For the past 2 days my sons teacher has called me at the end of the day with "I "by her side to talk to me also.

DAY ONE: Mrs D. said that "I "did not get all his class work done and put him on the phone. He sounds as if he was about to cry telling me he was behind in his work. Being the mommy that I am I told him its O.K and we would work on it when he got home. Asked him if he was O.K; which he said yeah I'm fine. END OF DAY ONE.

( Not to bad right ... hold on it gets worse!)

DAY TWO: Get a call from Mrs. D from her room again, this time she tells me "I" lied to me. He did not get all his work done. He only handed in one paper and that "I" has been doing nothing but lying to his father and I about getting his work done. She had to pause to help a student who had come up at ask a question. By this time I'M PISSED!!!! Knowing she is doing this to MY son in front of the whole class. She puts "I" and he tells me he only forgot to do a reading paper and had also left one of his papers here at home that he had done. ( which I had found and my sister took it down to him) By this time "I" was fighting back tears I could hear it in his voice. I WAS HOT!!! Mrs. D got back on and said that with him lying we need to really check his bag and books to make sure. I didn't say anything I just hung up on her.

I called the Principal and told him what Mrs. D had done and in front of the whole class. If she has anything to talk to me about she needs to call a meeting or call when no one is in the room. "I" has attention problems anyway, and right now is dealing with a lot with family issues too. AND to have an adult... his teacher do that to him in front of the class is just WRONG!

Come to find out this is not the only student she has done this to. She speaks down to these kids, is rude and very mean to them. I am to the point if the Principal does not take care of this; I WILL BE GOING TO THE SUPERINTENDENT and on up from there if I have to. This kind of treatment from a teacher to these kids is uncalled for. I was up-set when I heard that she had done something like this to a friends child... but now that she is messing with mine... IT' S ON!

You don't mess with a mother's babies. No matter how old they get... a mother can go from nice to " ONE HOT MAMA" very quickly all you have to do is mess with her kids.

WORD OF THE DAY

HOT MESS:
a derogatory term describing a situation, behavior, appearance, etc. that is disastrously bad. Think "faux pas" but times ten. Possible origin is literal (think, steaming dog pile).

EXP:"She got up on stage and tried to sing but her performance was a hot mess."

We use this term a lot at school. It's so funny cause we all know what it means but the teachers (who by the way are all older) have no clue what it means. We did have one ask and we just all laughed about it. No one told her... it's like our own little club. We don't let the old teachers in LMAO. I never knew how much College and High School went hand in hand. You still have your clicks, your nerds and you class clowns. It has been a blast... I'm going to miss it but am sooo glad it's almost over.

POEM

Give Me The Splendid, Silent Sun

GIVE me the splendid silent sun, with all his beams full-dazzling;
Give me juicy autumnal fruit, ripe and red from the orchard;
Give me a field where the unmow'd grass grows;
Give me an arbor, give me the trellis'd grape;
Give me fresh corn and wheat--give me serene-moving animals, teaching
content;
Give me nights perfectly quiet, as on high plateaus west of the
Mississippi, and I looking up at the stars;
Give me odorous at sunrise a garden of beautiful flowers, where I can walk undisturb'd;
Give me for marriage a sweet-breath'd woman, of whom I should never tire;
Give me a perfect child--give me, away, aside from the noise of the world, a rural, domestic life;
Give me to warble spontaneous songs, reliev'd, recluse by myself, formy own ears only;
Give me solitude--give me Nature--give me again, O Nature, your
primal sanities!--These, demanding to have them, (tired with ceaseless excitement,and rack'd by the war-strife;)
These to procure, incessantly asking, rising in cries from my heart,
While yet incessantly asking, still I adhere to my city;
Day upon day, and year upon year, O city, walking your streets,
Where you hold me enchain'd a certain time, refusing to give me up;
Yet giving to make me glutted, enrich'd of soul--you give me foreverfaces;
(O I see what I sought to escape, confronting, reversing my cries;
I see my own soul trampling down what it ask'd for.)
Keep your splendid, silent sun;
Keep your woods, O Nature, and the quiet places by the woods;
Keep your fields of clover and timothy, and your corn-fields andorchards;
Keep the blossoming buckwheat fields, where the Ninth-month bees hum;
Give me faces and streets! give me these phantoms incessant and endless along the trottoirs!Give me interminable eyes! give me women! give me comrades and lovers by the thousand!
Let me see new ones every day! let me hold new ones by the hand everyday!
Give me such shows! give me the streets of Manhattan!
Give me Broadway, with the soldiers marching--give me the sound of
the trumpets and drums!(The soldiers in companies or regiments--some, starting away, flush'd and reckless;
Some, their time up, returning, with thinn'd ranks--young, yet very old, worn, marching, noticing nothing;)
Give me the shores and the wharves heavy-fringed with the blackships!
O such for me! O an intense life! O full to repletion, and varied!
The life of the theatre, bar-room, huge hotel, for me!
The saloon of the steamer! the crowded excursion for me! the torch-light procession!
The dense brigade, bound for the war, with high piled military wagons
following;
People, endless, streaming, with strong voices, passions, pageants;
Manhattan streets, with their powerful throbs, with the beating drums, as now;
The endless and noisy chorus, the rustle and clank of muskets, (eventhe sight of the wounded;)Manhattan crowds, with their turbulent musical chorus--with varied chorus, and light of the sparkling eyes;
Manhattan faces and eyes forever for me.
Walt Whitman

My Rant!!!

Ok it's been awhile since i have just sat down and had a good rant... but today feels like a good day for that LOL.
Why do some people think that if you have something posted or they see people talking over to one side, that they are talking about them? We all know people like this... they see two or more of their friends/aquatints over to one side talking; and they automatically think it's about them. WHY? Like they are so important that every conversation has to be about them?
OH WHATEVER!!!! Get a life, PLEASE!
What really burns me is if you have a saying or something posted on your page and someone sees it and thinks you are talking about them. HELLO!!! Reality check here.... my life has nothing to do with you!!! I have my own issues, problems, and going on's to deal with than thinking about you!!! If someone has a problem with what I post on my pages.... then STAY OFF! Do not waste your time looking just to see " Oh my is she talking about me again?" If you feel that something I am going through fits your life or the way you feel... GREAT I'm glad to know someone else out there is going through a Hell of a time too. BUT DON'T PRIDE YOUR SELF THINKING ITS ALL ABOUT YOU.
So to end this pointless rant... If you do not like what I have to say, STAY OFF MY PAGES!!! If you can relate, find some humor, or just enjoy the blogs; by all means stop by.. leave a comment.. what ever. I enjoy having this page and I am not going to tip toe around on how I feel or what I say because others may not like it.
This is me.. take me as I am.

WORD OF THE DAY

HONOR:
High respect, as that shown for special merit; esteem:

I have had the privilege of going over to England when I was in High School, and I found my fathers family crest and coat of arms. It was such a touching moment when I got back to the states and gave my father a copy of these. He was so proud of them, and thankful that I had found these.

So, I am taking my family name back. I'm doing this to honor my father whom never had any sons of his own to carry on the family name. Once he passed away a few years ago I have had this desire to do this. I know that at least for the rest of my life, my fathers name and the honor of that name will go on and be with me.

Lyrics

Bring The Rain lyrics

I can count a million times
People asking me how I
Can praise You with all that I've gone through
The question just amazes me
Can circumstances possibly
Change who I forever am in You

Maybe since my life was changed
Long before these rainy days
It's never really ever crossed my mind
To turn my back on you, oh Lord
My only shelter from the storm
But instead I draw closer through these times

So I pray
Bring me joy, bring me peace
Bring the chance to be free
Bring me anything that brings You glory
And I know there'll be days
When this life brings me pain
But if that's what it takes to praise You
Jesus, bring the rain

I am Yours regardless of
The dark clouds that may loom above
Because You are much greater than my pain
You who made a way for me
By suffering Your destiny
So tell me what's a little rain

So I pray
Bring me joy, bring me peace
Bring the chance to be free
Bring me anything that brings You glory
And I know there'll be days
When this life brings me pain
But if that's what it takes to praise You
Jesus, bring the rain


Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
Is the Lord God Almighty

1 John 4:4
"...GREATER IS He WHO IS IN ME, THAN he WHO IS IN THE WORLD."

STRIKHEDONIA:

The Pleaseure Of Being Able To Say The Hell With It!

Over these past months I have been worried, scared, depressed and just beside myself about everything that has happened. But now I'm to the point in my life that I feel HAPPY again and like the "old Me"... the one good thing that has come from this is the " Hell With It" mind set. Things are going to happen that I can not do anything about. People are going to say things that I can not do anything about. Most of all they will make their minds up about what they think I should do or how I should feel or act during all of this. And to this I say

" THE HELL WITH IT!!!" LOL

I am finally happy again, I have hope and for once am thinking of a future that is full of joy. Before I was just looking as far as " let me get done with school then I figure out what to do." But now I know that everything is going to be O.K and I just need to stop worrying what others say, think, or do.

For those of you that have been there for me to give me HOPE, and a shoulder to cry on, or just someone to talk to. I THANK YOU!!!! This has helped me in so many ways get over my past and look to the future.

POEM

The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I marked the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Robert Frost

SCRIPTURE

Today in church Pastor gave a cool sermon about HOPE. He asked 3 questions:

1) WHAT is your PIT?

what is the one thing you are having trouble getting over or that problem you feel you just can not get out of.

Proverbs 3:5-6

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding, in ALL thy way acknowledge Him and He will direct your path."

2) WHAT is you LION?

what is that one thing that you fear you can not get past or what you feel my tear you apart or is holding you back?

2 Samuel 22:33

" God is my strength and power, He makes my way perfect."

3) WHAT / WHO is your enemy?

what/ who is the one thing/ person who is always coming against you?

Psalm 27:1

The Lord is my light and my salvation, who shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life, of who shall I be afraid?"

I have had PITS, LIONS, and ENEMIES come at me soooo strong lately but I know if I Trust in the Lord, Seek Him in my time of need, and Trust that He will help me through this.... Then I know I will be O.K

Matthew 7:7-8

" Ask, and it shall be given unto you. Seek, and you shall find. Knock and the door shall be opened unto you. For everyone who asked, receives; he who seeks, finds; and he who knocks it shall open."

Hats

One of my Medical Missions children found this hat at my house. He loved it and wore it all the time.

WORD OF THE DAY

stoop - to swoop on prey

I have often heard of the front steps to ones house be referred to as the "Front Stoop"

Why is that?? If a "stoop" is to swoop on prey, then are we the prey and our visitors the predator?

We often use words in our everyday language that we are not sure of the true meanings to them. They are what our family has used and we carry them on. BUT thanks to the World Wide Web... we can find any word and it's meaning. It is very surprising to see the true meanings to these words. Some are so off the wall you wonder how on earth did we use that word for the terms we have used it for.

When our ancestor came over they used little or no English. As they picked up words they associated them with what they felt was the correct use for that word. Almost each family in the USA has words that have been used throughout their families. Pasted down through the years; but if they just take the time to look them up... they may be surprised to learn that they are saying things they never thought they would say.

HENCE... Stoop- An entrance into a dwelling or house!!!

WORD OF THE DAY

ONYCHOPHAGY:
The Habit Of Biting One's Fingernails

I know what you're thinking... that's sick!!! It's such a bad habit too, but as a "Nail" biter I'm here to tell you it is more than just a bad habit. It is a stress release, or a way to clam the nerves of the one who does this.

For many, many years I have been a "nail" biter and have tried many times to stop. The nails would start to grow and look so nice, THEN something would happen and my stress level would go up. Without even thinking I'm back biting my nails. It's like a unconscious habit, or addiction.

So this time around I have decided that during this HIGH stress time, I am going to stop biting my nails. SO Far SO Good too :) This way if I do it while I am under a lot of stress, hopeful this will break that nasty habit of biting then when I get stressed again. I'm willing to try anything at this point... So wish me luck ;) !!!!

WORDLESS WEDS.

SNOW DAY

We had so much fun yesterday just playing in the snow.

SCRIPTURE

1 JOHN 4:8

"Whoever does not Love does not know GOD, Because GOD is Love."

When I stop and think of all that love should be; Accepting, Forgiving, Supporting, Strengthening; GOD is all that and more. HE IS PERFECT LOVE.

If you trust in God and leave things up to Him; things will fall into place. I have done this with the things that have been going on and as hard as it is NOT to have control, I know He Loves me and will work things out of me.

I had made a list of what I was looking for in a partner;I have had this list for awhile and began to pray about this list. For the past few months I would read it, pray about it, and read my bible. The scriptures I would read just seemed to fit too. I would pick up my bible and hold it til I was done praying. Then I would let if fall open and read were it had opened to. It always seemed to be what I needed at that time.

I know God has answered this for me and has met everyone of those wants I have been praying about. Time will tell!!!

WORD OF THE DAY

wordbound :
unable to find expression in words



Have you ever had something happen or experienced something that you just could not find the words to say how you feel?

It is the coolest thing that happens but then when you try and tell someone else... you just can not find the words to explain it. You know how you feel, and you try to express it but to no avail. NOTHING you try and say fits how you feel.

The only thing you can really say to others is " You just wouldn't believe it!"

WORD OF THE DAY

Soulmate :

One of two persons compatible with each other in disposition, point of view, or sensitivity.

a person with whom one gets along well because of having shared interests and experiences.


Have you ever met someone who you talk with them and when you hear their story of things they have been through; you are thinking "WOW... They are talking about my life."
I have never had that before, and to tell you I never thought it was possible to have that kind of a bond with someone out side of family. BUT...... I can say I have this in my life now.

When you go through things in life and you start looking back over everything; you say to your self " I'll NEVER ALLOW THAT TO HAPPEN AGAIN!!!" So you put walls up to keep people out. But once in awhile God hears your prayers for what you are truly wanting and sends it your way. You just have to be open and ready to accept what God has given to you. Don't let that wall you have put up keep everyone out because you will miss out on so many Blessings in your life.

I was told by a close friend the other night " It is better to LOVE and LOST then to have never LOVED at all!" This rings true in my life now... What do I have to lose by allowing others to get to know me? Why am I so scared to get hurt? With God as the one to be there for me and to help me rebuild my life; I know I can't go wrong if I listen to Him and what He has in store for me.
I thank God today for putting such a wonderful person in my life that I can say is from Him, and is my soulmate. This person has matched everything I have prayed to God for, and so much more. I guess even in our Darkest times God still listens and helps us.

" It's all fun and games til someone get's hurt!"

(Awww he had so much fun at the skating party until he fell.)

Up-Dates

So Much has happened from the last time I was on here!!!
1) For those of you that know what is going on and everything that is happening; I Thank You for the Prayers and the kind words.

2) I now only have 6 months left of school Woo Hoo!!! I have started looking for nursing jobs around Ohio and Indiana. I'm so ready to move and make a New Start!

3) I have always heard of soulmates, but I have NEVER believed in that sort of thing UNTIL now. I believe soulmates can be a future husband, a friend or even a family member... Soulmates to me is a connection two share NOT a LOVER type thing. People get this feeling confused and then wonder why they have never found that soulmate they long for. Once in awhile you find someone who changes your life, and you thank God for such a friendship.

I have more to share but that will be for a later date. Just wanted to let everyone know I'm O.K and I'll be back on soon.
