Tolerance, Ignorance?
My heart is deeply burdened today. I had some free time yesterday to check out Blogs. It's so sad to see such seemingly good, well intentioned, educated people, so lost. Even people that have been brought up in "religious" homes, don't have a clue. They are caught up in this world of "tolerance".
I came across a blog telling about two recent deaths of children. One in Oregon, the other in Wisconsin. They died because their parents opted to pray instead of provide them with the medical care they needed.
First let me say that I do believe that this was neglect! This story in itself bothered me. These parents were wrong and this is not what the vast majority of Christians believe.
The comments left on this blog is what really, I guess you could say, woke me up again. Everyone being so nice. Trying not to offend anyone. Some seemed to be very confused on the issues of whats "right and wrong". " If I don't believe I should tell people whether or not to have an abortion then how can I tell them to not believe in the "power of prayer" as well?" Honey , there is such a huge difference. Prayer is a very real and powerful thing. When we ask our Father for help, He can send it in so many different ways. Modern Medicine is just one of them! On the topic of abortion, How can we tell a woman what to do with her own body? The question isn't how, it's why. There is an innocent unborn child growing inside of you. Abortions are destructive to women physically, emotionally, spiritually, and intellectually. An on a more personal note. I heard my child's heart beat at 7 weeks old. My CHILD, NOT FETUS. I miscarried at 10 weeks. What comforted me through that was knowing that my child was in my Fathers arms.
There is too much tolerance. Christians are being Silenced. Media is totally biased. Wake up America!! Your Children are Hurting!! If we do not teach them, then how will they know. I am guilty. I am the silent type. We all need to find our voice, however large or small it maybe, and let it be heard.
Sorry if I've been rambling, but my emotions are all over the board today.

Back to the Life
It looks like the 9th is all we get for this month. So I'm back to the original thinking of July or August
.
Anyway, I kinda forgot about my big ticket item for March, so I just ordered my HipBaby by Walking Rock Farms. Wonder what Aprils big item should be??? Play yard or Crib Mattress. Hummmm.......we'll see. I might skip April since my crowds heart worm pills need to be refilled. ( three dogs over 100lbs)
I did start on my closet this week. That's gonna need some more attention.
And the painting the kitchen thing, well that might have to wait until the hot summer. Right now, if the weather's nice I want to be in the yard!
Oh yeah and for those who know about my Hair Stylist Dilemma. The search is finally over. After a what, a year maybe, of going to different stylists, traveling as far as Greenville, who'd a thunk it?!? I found the BOMB right here in little ol' Windsor. YAY!!!!

No, No, No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OK. Ready to get SLAPPED in the Face!!! How about Jan. the 9th!!!
I hit the Floor. If I was not 32 years old, I would throw a good old fashion temper tantrum!! I'm so sorry, but I hope the person who started that 13th rumor was being truthful and did not post an out right lie. It didn't feel right to me when I read it, but I allowed myself to believe it. And now I have to pick myself up and regroup. I am so glad they are finally in the month of January. Reminding myself of that helps!!! So back to the calculators!! The month of August is starting to come back to me now.
