Problems with Blog

Sorry all, I really do want to finish posting the photo challenge but I am struggling with the changes my blog program seems to have implemented. It doesn't help that I'm in the middle of a move either. I promise I will get back to blogging (and figuring out this new setup) as soon as the move is over and done with. So on that note...ta-ta for now~

Amazing Daze of Summer Fun

Since I seem to be a bit behind in the actual updating department, here is a quick overview of our end of school year/beginning of summer up to where we're at now. Hope everyone enjoys!

More Photo Challenges

Day 24 - A picture of something you wish you could change

Children in impoverished conditions is probably where I'll go with this. I feel bad that these innocent children have to suffer through such hard times.

Day 23 - A picture of your favorite book

Love this series! If you have never read it, I highly recommend it. Cele loves it too.

Day 22 - A picture of something you wish you were better at

I never seem to be able to say no, even when I really should.

Day 21 - A picture of something you wish you could forget

I don't wish to forget anything of any importance because, whether good or bad, those memories are what have made me who I am today. Without them I would be a very different person.

Day 20 - A picture of somewhere you'd love to travel

Once again we must go with Asia, specifically the countryside.

Day 19 - A picture and a letter

Dear Mother Nature,

While I understand that you have a rather capricious nature, I really wish you could give us a break on the rain. We are nearly flooded out here and would really enjoy having more than one day in a row of good weather. Sunshine, warmth, and no precipitation, just for a little while. It's all I ask.

Thank you for your time

Photo Challenge Days 17 & 18

Day 18 - A picture of your biggest insecurity

My biggest insecurity is definitely my weight. I hate that I am so much bigger than I should be. And I will just leave this one at that because I really don't want to go into a pity party here. I can't stand it when others do, unless they have a very good reason to, so I don't want to let myself do it either.

Day 17 - A picture of something that has made a huge impact on your life recently

I would definitely have to say the event that's had the biggest impact on my life in the recent past was my mothers death. Life is never the same after you lose someone that close to you.

Photo Challenge Days 14, 15, & 16

Day 16 - A picture of someone who inspires you

This one was hard for me but I think I'll go with Ghandi. He was an amazing man and what an amazing spirit and intellect. What he was able to accomplish, though he never achieved his ultimate goal. He never gave up and was always unfailingly kind and caring to those around him. He was completely devoted to his people. We could all learn something from him.

Day 15 - A picture of something you want to do before you die

I want to travel around Asia, to both see the countryside and experience the cultures of the area.

Day 14 - A picture of someone you could never imagine your life without

Yep my crazy kid definitely qualifies for this one. I could not live without her. She is the reason I keep going every day.

Photo Challenge Day 13

Day 13 - A picture of your favorite band or artist

Yep definitely have to pick Bon Jovi for this one. Just ask my poor employees. They know my favorites~

Photo Challenge Days 11 & 12

Day 12 - A picture of something you love

There are so, so many things I could have put here for something I love but books and music will always be in my top two spots so here you go!

Day 11 - A picture of something you hate
No one should ever get away with hurting a child. They are innocent and look to us for protection and love. When we fail to provide that, there is nothing worse in my eyes. Those that propagate this kind of abuse are almost worse than murderers in my eyes since they have destroyed an innocent child's life.
