The last post for this....


but I'm thinking..'does it really have to stop?????

* ‘FRUIT AT THE BOTTOM’ should mean fruit at the bottom. I hate eating/purchasing yogurt with this advertised on the container only to find one cube of a peach. I know not to expect a whole peach but c’mONNNNN. One cube! It’s the principle of the matter
*
I think I should own stock in Orville Redenbacher popcorn… I don’t think I’ve even ate dinner in about 2 weeks because I am like….craving popcorn. I come home from work, eat a bag. During the process of cooking dinner…I cook a bag and then I’m not hungry once its done but by about 9 I’m starving so….’hey….there’s popcorn in the cabinet…I’ll cook some of that!’ And my kitchen cabinet/closet…..geez…I know there is at least 5 boxes of the stuff in there. My favorite is the Buttery Salt and Cracked Pepper…OH MY GAWD….that stuff is good. And then there is the Tender White. YuuuuuuuuuuuuuuMY. Any way…time to move on from my addiction
*
It has rained in Missouri almost every day for the past month. BLAH

WHICH MEANS…. I am taking tons of shots of storms, clouds and rain drops….
*
I so hate it when I can sense a man does not want to listen to a word I have to say because I am a woman. Well, I hate it when anyone doesn’t want to listen to me so I guess this is a mote point

THANKSGIVING IS COMING SOON! This is my favorite holiday. Even over Christmas.

Yikes! Christmas is coming soon which means it is almost the end of the year…where has the year gone too…there is something to that quote ‘“Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans”.

*there’s a lot going on here in the past several days. Death, of course, never feels right but when it’s a child…it really doesn’t seem right. When its found out that another child has taken that life…it rocks people to the core. A lot of emotions come out and I try to understand that people grieve differently and I respect that. I don’t understand some of the ways people are expressing it but I do respect it. That same sentiment is not held by others. While still reeling from that, a teacher took his life and then within a day from that….violence reared its ugly head in the form of threats being made about a shooting at the high school. All in conjuncture? Not sure but its a lot to handle in the past couple of days. I pray for peace for all families involved. I pray for God’s guidance and I pray that those that stand proud with the comment of ‘I’m a Christian’ actually act as that of a Christian.

A beautiful photograph for Pink Thursday...and why does it have to stop indeed?

I enjoyed coming to visit you (and thank you for visiting me!) -- I loved your post. I laughed about the yogurt--^5 on that...False adversiting!!! lol!!

Death at ones own hand...death of children is sad period, no matter how it happens. But when it is at their own hand we are left wondering even more about the "why" and didn't anyone notice and could anything have been done.

And we give thanks for our blessings one more time.

Thanks for stopping by! I've been reading your blog since I stumbled across Christine's and then stumbled onto yours....

Just to kind of clarify...the child was not the person who committed suicide. A child was killed by another child/teenager. A teacher committed suicide within a few days of this
