It has been a long time!! Here is the latest!

WE ARE HAVING A SOCIAL!!!! COME ONE! COME ALL!!!

It is on April 29, thursday night from 7-10pm at Galaxy Skateland! We are going to spend the first two hours rollar skating and having some games for each age group. The last hour we will turn the rollar rink into a dance floor and dance the night away....well, for an hour at least! And guess what...no alcohol, which means....kids are invited too!!!!! Anyone 7 years old and up are $10, children 3-6 are $8 and children 2 and under (assuming that they aren't skating) are free! Unfortunately I couldn't score a great deal for kids because they charge everyone the same regardless of age...so we tried to cut under 7 a deal to make it more affordable for families! I know it is hard for some to gather the money...the bright side is that you don't have to pay a babysitter, your kids will have a fun evening with you, and games and munchies are included!!! We will have one bigger silent auction prize and a 50/50 draw. We will be selling pop/juice cans for $1 each.....if drinks were free you know how kids would drink us dry!

PLEASE! SPREAD THE WORD!!! GATHER FRIENDS AND FAMILY! WE DON'T EVEN HAVE TO KNOW THEM!! JUST BRING THEM!

We will be selling tickets as soon as we can make them! So, stay tuned and think about supporting us!!!

I'm having a rough time today.... I'm driving myself crazy.

I wish I was the kind of person who could forget about things really easy and didn't get stuck on being hurt or mad. Well, unfortunately that is not the case. I have a tough time letting somethings go right away. I hate getting hurt and/or mad!!! Because I hate what it does to me for the next hours/days/whatever. I don't know how to get ahold of a solution that will allow me to get over conflict faster! Any ideas???? Have you seen any solution for this for sale anywhere? You see....apologies mean the world to me. If I get a heart-felt apology, the world is brighter for me, but not everyone in this world is about apologizing. So, because of this, I have to learn to forgive and move on faster without the catalyst of an apology. How?

I'm just plain sad lately. I don't know how to shake it! It is frustrating for me.....because it's an inside feeling problem, not something on the outside that I could just stop doing. I'm just sad.

So, it has been a while!

Since I have last written, we found super cute bridesmaids dresses (very cute!!!!), saw the Passion of the Christ (bawled through it, but really enjoyed it and recommend others to see it), and experienced the death of a close family friend. The accident that happened on wednesday outside of Mitchell, was my mom's best friends' son. My sister was "engaged" to him when they were four and they were inseperable. I was good friends with his older sister and the four of us and our moms did a lot together.

Now, he is gone. On the way home from work. Got rear-ended really hard while waiting to turn on his home road. And died instantly. The car was totalled and a life is over.

I saw my friend yesterday and am feeling oh so terrible for their family. The funeral is on tuesday and I'm sure that day will be the hardest for me. Please pray for the Porier family....they lost the youngest child of 5. He is in a much better place and it must have been his time because otherwise he wouldn't be gone, but it doesn't take the grief and sadness away.

Please pray.
