Busier than a hornet on a....

    Many people close to me know that I am not as serious and straight laced as I may come across on here.

    I love to act goofy and joke around quite a bit....lets face it folks I'm a kid at heart.

  On my husbands and my first date (we met at Wal Mart after talking with each other often on the phone for 2 weeks LOL !) I made sure to take him down every toy isle they had and we had fun pressing every button on every noisy to we could find.

  What can I say ,i'm a kid trapped in a 34 yr old body. LOL ! maybe thats why I love kids so much and interact with them well.

   My sense of humor can sometimes get me into trouble as I have been told that I often don't know when to be serious.

   I tend to disagree when someone tells me that, because I do know when to be serious maybe not so much when it comes to dealing with my own issues as when it is with others ,though inwardly I tend to be a lot harder on myself than I let out but I do know when to be serious when others are hurting and need a listening ear for the most part.

   Lately I have been very busy and somewhat or I should say extreemly distracted and stressed .

   It's hard when your autistic son has been having constant meltdowns since school let out and his routine got messed up ,praise God though he only had one melt down today.

   Then on top of that I now have 2 freinds (well one was a freinds husband ) that have gone home to be Jesus one died March 8th  and the other on May 16 of this year .

   I miss them expecially my freind Craig who passed away at age 48 on March 8th....He was like a big brother too me it was really hard attending his daughters wedding last Saturday June 9th and not seeing him there she looked so beautiful in that gown.

  I could not help but cry through most of the wedding at least he was able to meet his new son in law Willie and have lengthy talks with him before he passed away and had the satisfaction that his eldest daughter Amy was marrying a wonderful Godly man a man filled with integrity and compassion and well respected.

It was a beautiful wedding and Craig would have been very proud.

As my title of this blog says I have been "Busier than a hornet on a...hippo's hide " LOL !.

I finally finished up a long homework assignment for this writing course I'm taking and don't think I did all that great on it..I am just not good at writing non fiction .

I was so close to quitting this course...but I realized that quitting will never accomplish my  childhood dream and Gods calling on my life to become a childrens author.

So I am going to keep plugging away at it , like " The little engine that could " did when he carried that heavy load up the mountain.

While also keeping in mind one of my favorite bible verses.

 " I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. " Philipians 4:13

There are many other things that have been happening that have over shaddowed the bad .

My son winning ribbons in special olympics doing something I never thought he would do,

My husband graduating from our local JVS (Joint Vocational School ) and landing a part time job as an Adult Ed instructor and possibly another job in the finance office after 3 years of unemployment ect.

Talk about an extreemly proud wife and mom !.  I am so proud of them I could bust....LOL !.......except that might be a bit messy LOL !

Well got to go for now...God bless.

Sounds like loads of "Congrats" are in order.....CONGRATULATIONS...to you and the family!!!!! Am very proud of you!!!

I remember reading of you losing your friends. I am so sorry. Somehow, the pain never really goes away. Yes, with time, it gets easier, but, as long as they're never forgotten, they live on, in our hearts. Through the tears, or the smiles of remembrance, they are with us.

So happy you came by to let me know you 'moved'. I have missed you!! Take care, and have a fantastic week. Love and hugs!!!

Hi! my real name is Laura, I am 33 yrs old and a mother of 2 autistic treasures ages 3 and 6. I am a Christian and love the Lord dearly but for those of you who aren't don't let that scare you. I am not going to beat you over the head and critisize you or try to cram my beliefs down your throat. I have read some pretty nasty blogs by some who have been hurt by Christians or people that call themselves christians and don't blame many of you for feeling the way you do about us. But there is only one that is perfect and whether you choose to believe theres a God who is perfect is your choice I am not justifying the mistakes I myself have made in trying to stand up for my faith and what I believe because I am not flawless ........but far from it. If I again say something that offends you then I appologize and you have the right to let me know that hopefully in a nice way as I will do my best to be kind and nice to you. Thankyou Have a Nice day :)
