SKYE IS SIX MONTHS OLD TODAY

So Skye is six months old today. She has brought so much joy to our lives and we love her so much. She is totally potty trained, she rings a bell that is hanging on the back door when she needs to go outside. She just had her first haircut last week which makes her look even older now. Now if we could just get her to stop jumping up onto our lap and right into our face. She is so fast that it is always a huge surprise.

She weighed 6 pounds when we brought her home and she is now 11 pounds. She should weigh around 14/16 pounds when she is fully grown.

P.S. Happy Birthday to Headless Mom at The Adventures of the Headless Family

I APPRECIATE YOUR FAITH IN ME

I want to thank you so much for pushing the button and giving me a chance. You do know that you can't go back now because I would know and you don't want me to feel rejected do you? I hope that you will find some of my posts to be interesting . You do realize that my posts are pretty simple ones usually about Skye or my other blog. I am pretty much a stay at home do nothing kind of person. But just maybe I will have some interesting things coming up since I have company coming at the end of the month which I will be posting about soon. Then I have vacation, more company in August and then more in September. I do like commenting allot, that's were I spend most of my days. I will forever follow you so long as you don't delete yourself from my follow list. (actually I would still follow you because I like what I read) See I felt really bad about six weeks ago when I only had a few people following me and I did a poor me post. (deleted it since) And thank you to Keetha who was so brave to be my first follower and has taught me allot since then. Now look at where I have come since then. Thank you so much for your faith in me. I have gone from 0/3 comments to as many as 19 since then. This blog spot has really changed my life in so many ways and I thank God for that.

SOUNDS GOOD TO ME

I love doing the quizzes on Facebook. Here was one of my answers. I know that my family may not agree with this but my friends probably would!

You have a very giving nature, and you think of others before yourself. You enjoy giving gifts even more than receiving them. You are a helping hand to anyone in need, and you not only give what resources you have, but you give your heart and your time. You are always looking out for the needs of others are very aware of others' problems, situations, and insecurities. You like to fill in the gaps with your love and kindness. That is what makes you such a great friend and companion.

GOD BLESS AMERICA

O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain;
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed His grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood,
From sea to shining sea.

O beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife,
Who more than self their country loved,
And mercy more than life!
America! America!
May God thy gold refine,
Till all success be nobleness,
And every gain divine.

O beautiful for patriot dream
That sees beyond the years
Thine alabaster cities gleam,
Undimmed by human tears!
America! America!
God mend thine every flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self control,
Thy liberty in law

JUST A REMINDER OF MY OTHER BLOG

I wanted to let everyone know that I have written a new post on my other blog spot. I also want you to know that as soon as I have a button I will let you know since I have had several requests. I have someone working on one right now for me. I have mailed out a few handkerchiefs to women who I have been blogging with and my heart felt good doing this. So please visit me at: http://wwwforyourtears.blogspot.com/ Remember if you are ever in need of this service please leave a comment on the blog so I can get back to you for all the information needed to mail a handkerchief out to a women in need.

KARMA?

Okay you all know that I was having fun with my post from yesterday, right? Well right now on my dashboard it is telling me that I am not following anyone. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? Is this karma for saying I am following too many people? So say a little prayer for me so you can all come back to my dashboard. I seem to still have my blog list on my page but I don't have everyone listed up there because my list is so long. I make sure I have everyone who is following me up there because that is just a must, I have to give credit to those who follow me. But I read everyone else too. They do say that karma is a bitch.

Hey, it's back. I guess I could just delete this post but since I'm already here I have a question for you. Why is it that when I am reading an email on my gmail account that all the ads to the right are about the subject in my email. That just isn't right! I guess we all just put ourselves out there for all to see and that scares me.

THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT

Okay I admit I am following allot of people. I just can't seem to help myself. I tell myself no more and then someone mentions someone they follow so I go over and check them out. See if I like the person I am following I should like the person they are following and so on and so on, right? So there I am pushing that follow button again. Yes, for the hundredth and something time! So I was doing some weeding yesterday but didn't accomplish much and there I was today adding three more blogs to follow.

So I can spend allot of time reading blogs each day and I am one of those people who comment on almost each and everyone I read. Sometimes the posts are way over my head with information so I tend to say nothing. Those people are way too smart for my little brain. So let me tell you that I have the gift of gab/type. My comments can be longer then the post. So I have been trying to keep them short but that isn't really happening too often. I keep reminding myself of http://http//www.threewordsblog.com/ a site you should check out. (okay I don't know how to do the other kind of link you all do) So you put all the blogs with all the comments into my day and believe me I am living in my office. God only know the things that a little almost six month old puppy can get into or do when she is over in the family room in her comfort zone! Well I could tell you but you really don't want to hear the story about the poop that was a toy. Yet I must say I do read allot of poop stories out their from all the moms!

So here was the original point to this post. I am sure that you read mistakes when you read me or when I am commenting on your page. I believe I am getting better at it because I have seen way to many misspelled words after I pushed that button to submit it. There really is no turning back after that. So I sit here in my office with two dictionaries next to me. I read, reread, reread again and again. (wouldn't it be nice if the comment sections had spell check?)

So there I am having to go through the magical words after each comment. (Okay it's not on every one but I seem to have to go through that test allot each day) I am calling them words even though that's not what they are. I often feel like I am on trial, someone is watching me when I type those crazy meaningless words. I get turned down sometimes and it would be nice to see my mistake but you can't because they give you another crazy word. There are times when I just can't make out a letter that blends into the next letter. So if you read and don't comment you are missing out on allot of fun. And I have to admit that some of them are starting to look like words to me. I am always saying them in my head trying to come up with some meaning. So what is it I did before I started blogging and taking these spelling tests each day?

And don't get me started on the "Your comment will be visible after approval." I do actually get the point to that because I know that people can get some nasty comments on their blog but there I am wondering and praying "Dear God I hope they accept me."
