Manic Monday!

Do you ever feel like this?

When EVERYTHING is happening...and there is nothing you can do?

Well, remember this:



BELIEVING IN YOU!

Just a thought for a crazy Monday! :)

Have a great one, we love you!

Kenny & Lida

E is for Entrepreneur

Thank you for all of your prayers!! Over the past couple of days I have had the worst news, I found out a friend of mine lost another baby...I guess it's just that time. I can't wait til all the Mom's go to Heaven and see their babies, oh that'll be the day! If you are interested in helping the family that I mentioned before, please just click back on their blog and there will be more information! I really want to go to the funeral, but I will be sending my prayers because unfortunately its about an hour and a half to get there. I'm praying for all of my friends that are either expecting, have lost babies, or maybe have lost others in their families.

So I'm sure you are wondering what the title of the blogpost is about! Well this time in my life has been filled with a lot of interesting things!! Anyway, I've heard people say, when they have been asked about what they do and the answer: I'm an Entrepreneur...I have found this to mean a lot of things:
Either, they are unemployed...lol
or they are working 15 jobs....or they have invented something
or they even work from home doing a couple of things


SO - the last one pretty much describes me! I'm working in two different places (part time) for the holidays and also doing MK, I've been working MK, but it's been slow....mainly because I know about 5 people here! In any case, I'll be doing a lot this Christmas season!


I'm really excited for this season because of:

• The COOL weather (it's been SOO nice lately, cool weather please stay!)
• Halloween!
• Decorating!
• Hot Chocolate, Pumpkin Spice Lattes (a rare delicacy, but delicious!)
• Turkey dinners!! YUM....
• Thanksgiving Sales! YAY - goal is to get that all done by Black Friday!
• Christmas cards, we have the cutest ones picked out!
• Giving back! We plan to serve at some shelters this Tday!!
• GAINING an hour for the holidays!
• Holiday smells!!

What are your favorites? Leave me a comment!! In any case, I'm just happy to have something! This might be a small Christmas, but none the less....it's a Christmas and we are thankful for the reason!

Thank you for reading our family blog, tomorrow I'll include some pictures of our fall decorations!

Love always,
Lida (and of course, Kenny!)

PRAY

Please pray for this loving family - they are in Houston, I'm getting the details. His sweet wife Sara had breast cancer and delivered a beautiful Chloe - and then had severe brain issues and passed away today.

Please pray that she is no longer in pain and pray for that sweet little family.

In the same breath, pray for a college friend who just found out that her baby is going to be miscarried this week! Jesus is bringing so many people home!! Pray for Stacy and her family!

Nails..Rusty Little Nails....

Ok - so before I start I need to wish one sweet little lady a HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
This is Kenny's Meme (and Momma), isn't she precious??!!! She is an amazing WOMAN of God! She's so beautiful from the inside out - I just love her! Happy Birthday beautiful lady - we love you SO SO SO Much!


So...interesting story today - I was doing a great thing - rescuing some lost balls that had gone behind the fence while throwing for the dogs! So Ronny and I found a pathway to go and I was really excited (because there are seriously 3 balls back there ... and hey...we're on a budget!) Some really exciting ones, the orange 'squeeky' that Buddy Lynn loves (yes, that's a middle name on a doggie!) and some others. I was SUPER smart and said...ok, we have to put shoes on - let's do that. So I naturally put my crocks on thinking, this is about the same thickness as my tennis shoes.

BOY was I wrong.....

We were about 6 steps in...and I felt it. A piercing pain into my toe! I quickly warned Ronny, ditched my ball exploration - and was sitting by the tub washing my foot. So...it's 9:23 p.m. and I've been at the Urgent Care (aka Doctor's offices that write 400 prescriptions and make you wait 2 hours (NO REALLY)) but it's better than the Emergency plus less money! Anyway, I went to the one in Humble at 4:50....and was directed to one 15 more minutes away in Atascocita! After being in the waiting room with a ton of people for 2 1/2 hours I was escorted in...FINALLY ... we are back home.


So the results...I have 2 prescriptions (seriously, it didn't go far...just a puncture), 25 less in cash, not only a painful toe but now a painful arm (thanks to a tetanus shot, and hours of wasted time. YAY...that's the exciting life, isn't it??!!




OH YEAH - not to mention it's my Momma's B-day - so Mom, sorry - Enchiladas tomorrow! Oh, and yes - that's me! :)



NEXT TIME....I'll buy the 5 dollar balls for the boys- they are MUCH cheaper!




Love ya'll,

Lida
