Hello Everybody!!
So I am trying to have patience and be strong no matter what happens I learning to deal with disappointment no matter what happens! I strive to live my life a certain way, following the commandments of my God, leaving a small as possible footprint, and care about those that are around me. We as human being always want to go for the quick fix, the easy route, this is not usually possible or good for us. We must sometimes walk the hard road, to the things we have to do but do not want to do. We must seek happiness in the moment even when it is nearly impossible. My advice: be happy, especially when you do not want to be.

Tired, Facebook, and the Heat
Hello Everybody!
I am sorry about yesterday, I was really tired and did not get a chance to put up anything on the blog! I pretty much laid on the couch and watch Missy A finger paint on the kitchen tile, meaning tomorrow I have I have to get red paint of the tile, and counter. What can I say, she really had fun! We are moving to a new house and actually a new area closer to our concierge clients and our church yeah!! Topping all that off the heat is still horrible with no sign of ceasing and the rain is no where to be found, ugh! Texas is the hottest place I have ever lived. Oh to be cool again, this heat is crazy!
Anyway I am having problems uploading my logo onto Face book from Windows Word so if you can help leave a comment. I will greatly appreciate that thank you!

Love. Loss, and Change
Hello Everybody!
I have to say the hardest thing about being a child care provider is when children grow up and move onto the next level of their development. You are happy for them but sad at the same time. some children just get beneath your protective armour and into your heart. I was just talking to one of my former charges, I try to call once a month to see how he is doing. Master D is a good boy, I do not mean some of the time I mean everyday he was a joy and delight. A truly well behaved child that I enjoyed getting the opportunity of spending time with! He was and is a delight to know.
Okay, I'm going to tell the truth I have not finished Jolly, why; two reasons. Firstly, no sandpaper and secondly laziness. I just have no energy. Plus I'm having a dieting problem, no motivation and will power. I'm doing research to change that to make all my plans come true. The purpose is to look back on my life and be happy with the choices that I made and have no regrets.

It Frying Pan Hot!!
Hello Everybody!
I hope everyone is having a great day today, it so hot in Texas its in the three digits on the heat index and record high. We are all trying to stay out of the heat and stay cool. Missy A however never understands this and thinks that thinning and skating in the high sun is acceptable, she does not get why I will not go outside or let her go out there either, It so hot the old man (dog) stands in the doorway and refuses to go outside unless it's early in the morning or late at night. I can not even argue about this it"s hot and I am mot going out there!
I am still working on the dress decision decision!! I will be spending the rest of the night working on it so I have something to wear this weekend to church. I just have problems with the color and I am going to find a way to change that.

Youtube
Hello Everybody!!
So I was watching YouTube which has been really big with me lately. I watch many hundred's of hours. Before you even think that it's for entertainment purpose it is not as I mention before being frugalista is like a mantra for me and I am really worried about harsh and dangerous chemicals that does serious damage to the body. So I watch videos on products like soap, toothpaste, deodorant, shampoo, conditioner, and hair gel. If there is something I do not know I go to YouTube, look it then follow that with other searches to make sure the information is correct before I proceed. This is how I learn to make a natural laundry soap that reduced my bills to about 72 cent per load. I am a Proverb 31 woman, something that brings me pride and joy. I can make things from scratch, which most people can not do !

Missy A and the Adoption Packet
Hello Everybody!!
So I am having breathing issues why? Missy A decided to use the microwave to soften bread now the whole house has a burnt smell. Of course this is the same child who put her toy electronic puppy in a microwave and nearly burned down the kitchen, as you can guess the microwave no longer works after the explosion. She never listens to anything any one says. She has always been this way. She, however is still one of the sweetest children I know, so kind and loving, just have to watch her in all her waking hours. On another note my first adoption information packet has reached YEAH!!! I am so excited! I'm going to read the whole thing, every word, and then highlight all the sections that apply to me. I have to tell you I am very happy! It feels as if my prayers are being answered!

The Doll, The Blanket and Aunty Sweetie
Hello Every
body!!
What a day? I have so much stuff to do today plus I am trying to not lose my patience with the people who are messing with me! I am now at the final stage of my baby doll which is paint and seal . I am thinking I need to sand it a little more to get a smoother texture or I am going to glue a skin (fabric) over the doll to have the finish look the way I need it to. I made Jolly a sweater, cap, blanket, skirt, and diaper cover so far and I need to start the mitten, socks, and mary janes next. As you can see from the pictures I have completed the wig and have comb and cut the hair into a banged bob. It took two days to get it to the stage it's in now.

On another note I finis
hed making my cousin Cal's, who had her second son last month, baby blanket and cap in a green and yellow basket weave. I am thinking about lining it with fleece before I mail it to her. Look at the picture and tell me what you think, does it need to be lined? I have been working on the blanket for over a year, it took a lot of time to knit because I used size two needles and that makes the process really slow. However; this is not usually a pattern I knit but I wanted something special for Cal's family. I really love them especially Aunty Sweetie she brings me so much joy she encourage me and was the first one to tell me that it will be okay, that adoption was an acceptable option, which was just what I need to hear! It was so good to hear! That changed my life for the better! I love you Aunt Sweetie and I miss you so much now that we are so far apart!
