Sun, Rain and Roses.

I know I haven't blog in a while. We had a nice Father's Day with my Dad. He did fall on concrete in the backyard by pool. He had been doing this periodically and he is okay now. I guess its the sandal or just couldn't get his balance straight. I don't know but its happen quite regulary since up until a month ago. We had beautiful weather since until yesterday. Rain and thunderstorms sweeping the area with downpoured. UGH! I though we going to have great week. I just wish it'll go away. The pool is full of rain water. We need to pump it out again,or shall I say my brother will. The rose bush is from my sister when she was sick and my mom gave it to her. My BIL gave it back to my mom. Ain't it beautiful? I love how its came out on my camera. I do misses her very much. I can't believe its been a year and a half since she passed. SO, I am so greatful to have a good sisters and they all are great as well as my brothers and parents. So, I made a collage too. Have a great weekend and pray for some sunshine. I want to go back in the pool..LOL.

God ABC"s

The Godly Alphabet:



Although things are not perfect


Because of trial or pain


Continue in thanksgiving


Do not begin to blame


Even when the times are hard


Fierce winds are bound to blow


God is forever able


Hold on to what you know


Imagine life without His love


Joy would cease to be


Keep thanking Him for all the things


Love imparts to thee


Move out of 'Camp Complaining'


No weapon that is known


On earth can yield the


power Praise can do alone


Quit looking at the future


Redeem the time at hand


Start every day with worship


To 'thank' is a command


Until we see Him coming


Victorious in the sky


We'll run the race with gratitude


Xalting God most high


Yes, there'll be good times and yes some will be bad, but...


Zion waits in glory...


Where none are ever sad! 'I AM Too Blessed to be Stressed!' The shortest distance between a problem and a solution is the distance between your knees and the floor. The one who kneels to the Lord can stand up to anything..
Now may Christ's Love,Joy and Peace be with you forever, Amen.

Mom drove down to the church's lot and the three of us walk up to the street and watched the parade. It was almost over when we went,at least we got out for a while..lol. It had been a comfortable weekend and the pool got green again.Ugh! So, my brother and I cleaned it yesterday. Hopefully it'll clear up in the next few days. We also got rain in our forecast for the next few days. Anyway here are the photos. Have a good day..

The Washcloth Ladies: Funny

This has to be read, laughed at and passed on. There is not a Woman alive today who won't crack up over this----I was due for an appointment with the gynecologist later in the week.Early one morning, I received a call from the doctor's office to tell me that I had been rescheduled for that morning at 9:30 am. I had only just packed everyone off to work and school, and it was already around 8:45am. The trip to his office took about 35 minutes, so I didn't have any time to spare.As most women do, I like to take a little extra effort over hygiene when making such visits, but this time I wasn't going to be able to make the full effort.So, I rushed upstairs, threw off my pajamas, wet the washcloth that was sitting next to the sink, and gave myself a quick wash in that area to make sure I was at least presentable. I threw the washcloth in the clothes basket, did some clothes washing, hopped in the car and drove to my appointment.I was in the waiting room for only a few minutes when I was called in.Knowing the procedure, as I'm sure you do, I hopped up on the table, looked over at the other side of the room and pretended that I was in Paris or some other place a million miles away. I was a little surprised when the doctor said, 'My, we have made an extra effort this morning, haven't we?' I didn't respond. After the appointment, I heaved a sigh of relief and went home. The rest of the day was normal. Some shopping, cleaning, cooking. After school when my 6 year old daughter was playing, she called out from the bathroom, 'Mommy, where's my washcloth?' I told her to get another one from the cupboard. She replied, 'No, I need the one that was here by the sink, it had all my glitter and sparkles saved inside it.
'Never going back tothat doctor. Ever!

Pool Reflections..

Hello, We had some great weather these past few days. Yesterday I took some photo of our pool. I love how the reflections turns out. Its look like I was taking picture of the sky, instead of the pool.LOL.. I love how its came out. Some of the photos look the same except I use a different format to enhance the picture. Actully I didn't think it'll turn out at all because it was a little breezy and the water was moving when I did the snapshot. Anyway, I did go in the pool last night, it wasn't too bad but on the cool side. It's is going to be in the mid 70's again today and I don't know me nieces and nephews will be over. They were here last night swimming. It is supposed to be in th low 70's tomorrow and cool Monday. I am off for now and everyone have a good day.

Knock Knock:

Knock, Knock I knocked at heaven's door this morning. God asked me...'My child, what can I do for you?' And I said, 'Father, please protect and bless the person reading this message.' God smiled and answered...'Request granted'. If you believe, send this to seven people and the one who sent it to you. By doing this, you have succeeded in praying for eight people today. 'Be kinder thannecessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle

Sat: Clothes Shopping..

My mom and I went shopping Saturday. Since my Dad went out for lunch with his buddies. I end up buying more clothes than I wanted to. I felt bad for my Mother since she only bought two things. I told her that I am done shopping for Summer's clothes and she better off going shopping with the my other sister.LOL..

I don't know some of you knew that I have lost about 3olbs since last year. I kept myself steady. I only gain a pound or two and lose it and come back like a rollercoaster. Like I said "Steady". So, I spent at least $200 and it was worth it. It was funny. I usually buy one to three items at a time. Here and there too! I was so excited to buy stuffs a size smaller.Perhap I wanted to drop two sizes. Oh, well. It's still better than nothing. Can you see the printed top that I bought? That is my bathing suit top. I still can wear the bottoms..LOL. I know it sounds funny but it is true. It was $34 and I got it for $19. What a deal! I love the colors and its matches the shorts and top that was laying there. Yay! I am so happy. Now this week I got to go throug my closet and find some stuffs that doesn't fits. HAHA...I also find a few of those long shorts and they're so comfy and capri lounger pants too! Any way this is it for now. Take care!

My makeover party:

Last night I have a makeover party. I had a few friends came and of course my sisters and nieces. Its all started out since my two nieces have their party and I booked mine from my youngest niece. It was really a spa party for the beginning and I decided that I do the Hollywood makeover. The products are nice but little on the pricey side. I do love the facial stuffs and the body wash as well along with the foot care and lotions. I did ordered some eye shadows and blush. I really don't do a lot of makeups but only for occasion and work. Not that I am not working at the moment and trying to go back to school. I notice soon I took the make-up off my face and its feels really nice. Here are some photos.

Me in the before and after putting in the lipstick.

Pucker up BLOGGERS....

Me and my best friend that I known over 30 years..

My girlfriend, my two nieces and me..
Last photo are my two gorgeous nieces.

They looks like they can be twins..
If you are interested in the make-up and spa party this is the consultant Arbonne. Check the site out. Maybe you or someone you know might like it. So, far I do..
Have a good night.

Just a little update:

I am just writing to say that my father is doing good and he is starting to walk with the cane instead of the walker. He is doing good and just steady. A little fall back to his chair here and there. No major issues. My brother did had surgery on his foot and it was a little frustrating when both me and my Mom are doing the run around. Other than that things are getting better.
I was going to post some photos of flowers and etc: that we got for my Mother for Mother's Day. I will so that eventually. Off the PC and have a good nite and a good week.
