Where There Is Love

Photobucket

Whoa... did I scare people away by writing about my current situation or are the last two tags really bad? (LOL @ very little comments)...

I am not writing about being without a job to make people feel sorry for me. I am writing about it, because I want to remember what I went through to survive. Being without a job is not permanent... least I hope not! LOL... But it IS part of LIFE's Lessons...

In spite of having to sacrifice a lot, I continue to be optimistic and my Faith remains strong. Every day that I wake up, I tell myself that I am still alive... That must mean something... There must still be work left for me to do...

As Grandpa always said:

As long as there is Life, there is always Hope...

How about some Tea? LOL...

Love the guy on the end with the mustache.

I think this pic is hilarious. LMBO......

@->----

People have been asking if I am O.K... Well, I continue to survive without income. I got a food stamp application, but I haven't filled it out yet, so that is on my agenda. I have to clean and soak beans today so I can cook them and freeze them to last me for a week or two. I have masa ready to make tortillas... and there is still plenty of rice. I am running out of Tea. LOL... There is still enough money to pay the rent in November. I am praying for a low electric bill. There is also the phone bill, the water bill, gasoline for the car, and car insuance, but I'll worry about them when they show up. LOL ... Oh, as for the water bill, I guess the landlady must have charged me twice because it shows that they owe me money so this month's water bill might be taken care of already...

@->----

A lot has happened that I have not written about, but I am not going to get into it now...

@->----

What I am mostly thinking about is a bite from a prospective employer... Did I lose his interest?... I am still waiting to hear from him...

It's A Wrap!

:::blushing:::

Embarrassed to see I am a week behind and that I couldn't get into my own journal or image site... It happens... Most apologetic...

@->--

From the Desk of Winivere...

Thank you for the Halloween card, Pooh Girl. It was an unexpected surprise!!!...

Welcome new "no face" people. LOL @ I have no clue as to who you are because there is no picture... but thanks for adding me. My creations are snag or tag offers, but please don't do a drive by! Please leave a comment to let me know you were here...

My friend Sybil should be back from her holiday. If you are reading this, Sybil, I have missed you terribly, my friend. Please don't lose touch.

To the people from my graphic group: I know I 'm falling behind! LOL... Hope you can find it in your hearts to forgive me......

XX

P.S... The New Moon is here! I haven't done this in a long time, but since there is no income coming into my life, right now is a good time to make out an Abundance check. To make it, you take a blank check from your own checking account or if you do not have a checking account, print out an image of a check from the internet. Date it the date of the New Moon. Make the check out to yourself and sign it "Law of Abundance." I know there is a lot of money in my past that I have lost in many ways and a lot of money in my future that I haven't even seen yet. It is only right that the money from my past should return to my hands when I most need it and/or to be able to borrow from the money I make in the future. This ritual is not Magick. This is a ritual of Faith, because every time I see the check, it is a reminder to myself that God and the universe are working in my favor to provide me with everything I need. Then, I put the check in my wallet, but you can also put it in your nightstand, under your mattress, or in a cookie jar. You can also make separate checks for your family members so they will always have what they need.

Spider's Web

The morning light brought a half-dark waning moon into sight... Oh, beautiful moon, must you remind me that I need to watch my weight?! I have been so stressed out that even Tidbit (my bird) is eating more than usual! LOL...

@->--

God continues to keep me alive. He continues to give me another opportunity at LIFE... but where will life lead me? What is my destiny, Lord? Why haven't I found a job yet?! I am trying so hard to be patient and wait on Your Word.
@->--
I went to put gas in my car and my card was denied. How embarrassing... so I drove over to Wal-Mart to talk to the people at my bank. They told me it was denied, because they have changed the card from MasterCard to Visa. Grrr @ now I have to wait five days until the new card comes in.
@->--

Makes me feel as if God is grounding me or maybe He just doesn't want me to spend any money right now... I check my phone over and over and over again... Still... NO MESSAGES... I am so anxious to be part of the working world again...

@->--

The things You do, I do not understand, but thank you, Lord for watching over me...

I keep trying to read journals but my dial up won't let me. There is too much animation in some journals, and I am not going to say your names, because you know who you are! LOL

Don'tcha just love spiders?! They always let you know when a letter is coming. =.)

Sneaking in a Halloween Tag.

RED RIBBON Week

Photobucket


I never finished writing about camp in TheGlassBox. Because it is Red Ribbon Week this week, I think it would be appropriate to dig through my summer notes to write about what happened at camp...
.
In the summer, I go as a volunteer to facilitate groups at a drug prevention leadership camp for the youth... It all started on a Friday, this trip of FAITH! I say it was a trip of Faith, because I went with no map, very little money, very little clothes, and no place to spend the night that Friday...
.
It had been over a week that the landlady had been notified that the dryer was not working, but she was busy thinking of other things... That means that I had to make my trip with very little clothes.
.
I made contact with my best friend so I could spend the night in Corpus Christi, but she was going out of town to visit her mother. I made contact with my daughter so I could stop at San Antonio, but it was their anniversary and they were going out of town, too! I had no clue as to how I was going to do it, but I packed my suitcase and drove off to Corpus Christi...
.
I hadn't seen Lil (my hairdresser) since I lived in Corpus Christi, which was about 18 years ago, but she is the only one who knows how to cut my hair... We got caught up on all the news of what has happened since we saw each other last... It is hard to believe that she is still single... She has been single all of her life...
.
I felt totally naked by the time she finished cutting my hair. It was like watching Edward Scissorhands! Swoosh, Swooshh, Swooshhh... OMG @ she cut nine inches off my hair!
... I told her I wanted it cut to the bra line, but she said I would have to wear my bra higher. LOL... Lil put a lot of work into my hair... She touched up my highlights and added conditioner, too... I was afraid to see the bill, but when the bill came, I was very surprised that she gave me a break on the price! My hair was shorter than expected, but it looks a lot healthier. Makes me happy...
.
So I thought I would have to spend the night in the Wal-Mart parking lot, but Lil took me in for the night and she fed me! She hadn't gone to the grocery store, so we had eggs for supper and toasted bread with peanut butter and jelly for breakfast... Yay @ how God works to provide for me!
.
On Saturday morning, I was back on the road. It seemed easy enough to get there without a map, but no one mentioned Hwy 46 & 133... I had to keep making U-Turns to get there, but I was the first one to arrive... The good thing about that is that I had a chance to play Goldilocks, hopping from bed to bed, until I found the bed that was just right!
.
People started coming in shortly thereafter... It was so good to see some familiar faces and some new ones, too! We all slept on bunk beds in a little casita... It was awfully crowded and awfully cold... I was upset at myself for not bringing a blanket... and I had forgotten my camera, too...
.
Not all of the staffers came early. We were expecting more people on Sunday... But that night, it took three vans to take us out to eat... I was a bit nervous about the high prices, because for the cost of a meal there, I could probably buy close to a week's worth of groceries... I kept looking for the cheapest prices, but even sandwiches and hamburgers were expensive... Then our leader said that it was his treat... so all of the guys ordered steak which was at least $15 a plate, not counting the drinks... They ordered appetizers and dessert, too... OMG @ there were so many of us... I didn't feel right about ordering the most expensive things on the menu, so I ordered the catfish and water with lemon instead... It was very good, and it wasn't too much food. In the famous words of Goldilocks, it was just right...

Reagan was feeling hot, so she put her head down on the table. When she wasn't looking, JC got Heather to put stuff into Reagan's Sprite... lots of salt, pepper, sugar... OMGG @ I was so nervous for her... and then, he made a toast to get Reagan to drink the "poison"... but Reagan didn't notice any change in the Sprite... so then, he called a race to see who could finish their drink the fastest... No change... So he got Heather to add more stuff... to another Sprite... and challenged Reagan again, but still... no change...
.
OMGG @ Reagan never noticed a thing...but she drank so much Sprite that she couldn't eat her food when it came...
.
Reagan was never told about what happened that night... Even her sister kept it a secret....

Shhhhhh...

Sunday Funny

Photobucket
A cabbie picks up a nun. She gets into the cab, and the cab driver won't stop staring at her.She asks him why he is staring.
.
He replies: "I have a question to ask you, but I don't want to offend you."
.
She answers, "My son, you cannot offend me. When you're as old as I am and have been a nun as long as I have, you get a chance to see and hear just about everything. I'm sure that there's nothing you could say or ask that I would find offensive."
.
"Well, I've always had a fantasy to have a nun kiss me."
.
She responds, "Well, let's see what we can do about that. But first, you have to be single and you must be Catholic."
.
The cab driver is very excited and says, "Yes, I'm single and Catholic!"
.
"OK" the nun says. "Pull into the next alley, "maybe we will see what we can do."
.
The nun fulfills his fantasy with a kiss that would make a hooker blush. But when they get back on the road, the cab driver starts crying.
.
"My dear child," said the nun, why are you crying?"
.
"Forgive me, but I've sinned. I lied. I must confess, I'm married and I'm Jewish."
.
The nun says, "That's OK, my name is Kevin and I'm going to a Halloween party."

Free Broom Rides

Photobucket

This weekend there will be a three day and three night celebration of the death of El Nino Fidencio. El Nino Fidencio was a very well-known spiritual healer in Mexico.

On or about 1985, I went on a college field trip with my professor and my classmates to the small town in Mexico where El Nino Fidencio lived. I do not remember if we were there for three days and three nights, but I think we were, because I remember that we were there for several days.

Yesterday, I spent the day with the people who will be conducting the celebration at their home. What I did not expect is that the man and his wife are both in wheel chairs. You only have to look at their property to know that they are very devoted to the movement, because it looks like a miniature of that small town in Mexico.

The celebration sounds as if it will be interesting. I don't know if I will be there all three days, but I do plan to be there on Friday, camera in hand.

I have another interview tomorrow at 9:45 a.m. (central time). Please keep me in your prayers.

Hang Around for a Spell

Photobucket

:::Snag or Tag:::


I cannot deny that I am feeling a bit anxious this morning. My unemployment was short-lived to only cover the summer months. I thank the Lord that I am economical and I have spent my money wisely, especially since I do not know what lies ahead.

That wise decision helped me to pay the rent in September and October, but it is two weeks until November, and here I am... still without a job... counting my pennies to see how much money I have left to work with and how long it will last. I am right back where I was in January...

I keep trying to be as economical as I can with my phone and electricity. All of the lightbulbs in my apartment have been changed to 40 watt, except for the one in the kitchen, because I cannot reach it.

The weather in the Valley continues to be so hot and the heat makes it difficult to sleep at night. I keep praying for cooler days but every day is just another hot day. In the meantime, I continue to wear as little as possible when I am in my apartment in order to keep my body temperature as cool as I can. I take a quick one or two minute cold shower during the hottest part of the day and another one before I go to bed so that I can sleep at night.

My grocery list continues to be as modest as possible. I continue to make tortillas to stretch my grocery dollar. Once in awhile, I treat myself to a $1 cheeseburger, but my body wants to eat things that are outside my norm.

As for gasoline, the prices appear to be going down at the pump, but I continue to limit the places where I have to go, and if it is not absolutely necessary for me to be there, I don't go.

The biggest chunk that comes out of my pocket is the rent... I continue to pay by the month instead of signing a lease, which hurts because it is more expensive, but I don't want to be caught not being able to fulfill my lease. After all, there is no income coming into my life, not even the pennies I use to find on the street... Lord, I don't even want to think about having to put my things into storage or the possibility of having to go into a shelter. Even if I go to a shelter, they only give you 30 days...

The last time I went through this, I asked Mother if I could come to stay with her until I could get back on my feet. She said no, and my daughter and I were homeless for two years... If she should say yes now, her home is full of mold, there are problems with plumbing and electricity, and there is no room for me, because she lives in a very little house that is over-crowded with her things, because she has no closets.

It is amazing the things that we can accumulate in ten years! I continue to sort through boxes, trying to see what I can part with so that I won't have as much stuff to transfer to wherever the Lord leads me... be it to a new environment, a new job, or to put it into storage until I can find a job.

Parting with some of my things is difficult, but I keep reminding myself that I must be generous with the things that I choose to give away. They have served me well these past ten years, but putting them into someone else's hands will help to brighten someone else's life... and it will help to pave the way for new opportunities in my own life.

These days I find myself having to fight against feeling so discouraged. I have so much to offer, Lord. Why do I keep on being over-looked? Finding a job has taken me so much longer than I expected. This year is almost over, and I am still without a job. Still, I try to hold on to the thought that God is never late.

The moon is 98% full. I am looking forward to taking a moonlit walk with God this evening.

Do I delete them

If you know how to add

'Tis Halloween night and all through the Mansion

many creatures were stirring in their own grisly fashion.

Uncle Fester was hung in the closet upstairs

While Grandmama snoozed in her favorite chair.

Wednesday curled up dreaming Halloween dreams

too sleepy to hear Pugsley's bone-chilling screams.

Lurch settled in for his Halloween nap

while Thing dressed for bed in his P.J.'s and cap.

On goblins, on demons, on creatures of sin.

On Comet, on Cupid, on Donner and Blitzen ...

It's almost that time for treating and tricking.

For haunting and scaring and screaming and kicking.

And the night air was filled with horror and gloom

as wolves outside howled at the moon.

It's the one time of year when everything's right.

Happy Halloween to you, and to all a good fright.

Dark Is the Night

Photobucket

OK... so I messed up a little in making this tag...

It's on a white background! LOL

I was having computer problems when I made it

and I lost it before I could make one with a black background

but at least this one was saved.

LOL @ it happens!

Trying to sort through boxes has been a challenge.

I had been sleeping on the floor for a few nights

because I didn't want to interrupt the work I started.

I was able to move the bed yesterday, though,

and last night was the first night

that I slept in my bed with my head in the South.

I don't know how good that is for prosperity,

but according to Feng Shui,

it is good for people who have bad health,

so it is worth a try.

It felt kind of strange to sleep this way.

It took me awhile to fall asleep,

but after I woke up this morning

and dressed the bed,

I think I am going to like it...

I started the day in prayer

and made myself a good breakfast,

however humble!

LOL @ my imitation grapefruit juice

(Crystal Lite grapefruit)...

all of the flavor and none of the nutrition!

But it is soooooo good

and cheaper than buying real juice

so I trick my mind to think that I have money. LOL

I started out to make my "to do" list

and God laughed at me again...

The phone didn't ring yesterday,

but I thought I would check it anyway...

I have another interview on Friday

except that I will not have to get dressed for it,

because it will be by telephone.

Now that is awesome!

That means that I will have to go

to the employment center today,

because there are some things

that I have to fax to them before the interview.

OMG @ I have to keep checking what day it is!

Thank you, Lord, for changing my plans. LOL

You always keep me guessin
I never seem to know what you are thinkin
And if a fella looks at you
It's for sure your little eye will be a-winkin
I get confused, cause I don't know where I stand
And then you smile, and hold my hand
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you

If you decide someday
to stop this little game that you are playin

God's tummy has been grumbling all day, and it has rained a little bit. The weatherman said we are expecting a cold front. I guess that means it might get to 89 degrees. LOL

FLY Lady is running behind! OMG @ no sneak peek for the week so I have to look at my emails everyday. They had that big party in Dallas over the weekend. I wish I could have been there. I bet it was a lot of fun. I have managed to keep the living areas fairly clean and I am making progress sorting through boxes. This morning I had to make three trips to the trash bin, which is down the stairs on the other side of the block. Grrr... but I was finally able to move the bed. I don't know if I like it. It feels strange, but I will try it for awhile and see if anything changes.

I had to sneak in a Halloween tag. LOL... I love Halloween. On Halloween, you can be anything you want and get away with it! =.) Such happy memories of dressing up, of being in Halloween costume contests, and of being a chaparone at my daughters Halloween dance parties.
@->---
Halloween is the most spooktacular time to have fun with your children. It's not about showing your love by spending as much money as you can on expensive gifts. It's not about buying the most expensive costume. And in my opinion, it has nothing to do with the devil at all, unless you want it to...
@->---
It's about showing your love by giving your time and laughter and the gift of imagination to your children and to yourself. Many people have gotten away from that... They don't know how to express their love except through money. Sad; isn't it?
@->---
A child needs to grow up feeling loved. A child needs structure. A child needs to learn about imagination and having fun. A child needs responsibility and direction. A child needs to learn about safety vs trust. A child needs to learn how to get along with others and how to cope with difficulties when they come. Except for responsibility, these are things that I never had in my childhood and things that I tried to give to my kids. Being a parent is about all the things that money cannot buy and about preparing your kids for when you are no longer there. ~ Winivere
@->---
Take time to have fun with your children today. They may not remember everything you say, but they will remember how you made them feel.

Siggy-Winivere

Except for personal tags, the tags I create are snag-able! You may tag your name on them yourself or leave a request in the comment section. XX

Trees In Love

Photobucket


October gave a party;


The leaves by hundreds came~


The Chestnuts, Oaks, and Maples,


And leaves of every name.


The Sunshine spread a carpet,


And everything was grand,


Miss Weather led the dancing,


Professor Wind the band.


~George Cooper, "October's Party"


@->---


This tag is one of my favorites. If you look closely, the tree is a man and a woman loving each other.


@->---


I wish Autumn would visit all over the world. The pretty changing colors of the leaves make it look as if every leaf is a flower. Unfortunately, the Autumn I know only exists in picture books and now in my tags. (smile)


@->---


When I was a little girl, I was immediately drawn to the illustrations of Eloise Wilkin in the Little Golden Books. For me, one of those books was worth more than a toy. In my little world, there was no Autumn, but her illustrations opened my eyes to a whole new world that I thought was no more than imagination. Imagine my surprise the first time I came across a sandpiper or a tree full of changing colored leaves! The pictures she drew were not imagination at all! They were real! I love nature. It is one of God's greatest gifts.

I am new to PSP, but Joyce, Bethe, and I joined a graphic group called LilA on the last week of June this year. I am self-taught in PSP, so I do not know the "right way" to do things, but just seeing some of the examples of the other members has been a tremendous priviledge to be able to follow by their example. I know I still have a lot to learn, but I am happy with my progress so far, because being creative is one of my most favorite things to do...


@->---


Now that I have improved, I want to start sharing my tags with the world. I have been hoping that someone would pimp my journal. That exciting opportunity came true when I became a Mystery Blogger in Donna's This, That, and Hockey Journal... Unfortunately, it was bad timing because it seems that all of AOL was busy moving to blogspot. LOL @ just my luck!


@->---From D's Journal...

* A little bit of TRIVIA about me:

* I taught myself how to cook when I could barely read.
* I earned my first paycheck when I was six.
* As a child, people would ask me to come work for them.
* In my youth, I was able to lift over 200 lbs.

* I am a survivor of everything.

I go with Donna. Are you asked if you are Bug's mom? (This so frequently happened to me with one of my nieces--and I wasn't even married yet!) LaVern

I have got to go with you Donna. If there was a hockey stick in your hands I would be sure it was you. The "Bug" resemblence is un believable. Bill

I'm thinking the Mystery Lady is none other than Donna herself! She has Donna's pretty hair and Bug even looks a bit like her. Donna is a true survivor and a great lady.Gayle from Florida who met Donna online MANY years ago on WOW.

A Brand New Diary



"Sometimes a woman has to
make up her mind
between her face and her fanny."

~ Marilyn Monroe


Paper is so patient... the blank pages waiting for my hand to write with pen and ink, to draw pretty pictures, or to press a pretty leaf or flower inside...
@->---
As I child, I spent a lot of time on the roof, talking to God, looking at the stars, or writing in my diary. Growing up without guidance, sometimes, it helped to find solutions to my problems by writing my thoughts down on paper.
@->---
The original plan for THE GLASS BOX was to focus on my weight-loss journey, but humans make plans and God laughs... Many people tell me that I should write about my life and the things I have learned along my journey of self-discovery... Perhaps this is the knock of opportunity that I have been waiting for... If I can help but one person with my stories, I will have done my greatest good for humanity...
@->---
It is up to me to take up my Sword of Power and reclaim the remains of my Kingdom for only I can be the heroine of my own story. ~ Winivere
