The Job I hate

Last summer I was a janitor for my church. Just let me tell you, binding over to clean public toilets is not cool. First there is that over powering smell that always seems to be worse in the boy's bathroom for some reason. Then there was the vacuuming, just take your house vacuuming and times it times ten and you'll get a small idea of how much I vacuumed this pass summer. The reason I took the job was to help my dad, the church out, and earn some extra sending cash. See, my dad is the building manager for our church which really means he fixes things then gets wined at that things are still broken. It really starts to pill on him after awhile. Well this past spring dad had to fire the cleaning crew we had. He had no clue who he could higher to take their place. Then I found out I would not be working at the Dairy Barn ( a local ice cream shop). So if offered up my help for the summer. Lets just say if they asked me to do it again I would say yes, but ask for someone else to do the toilets.

Childhood Toy

Oh, Mr. monkey how I loved to dance and play with you. I remember that rainy day in summer time when we spent all after noon play dress up in mommies clothes. You looked so funny in mommy's flower bonnet hat, gram's long pearls, and a pair of my favorite dress up shoes. You were the smile in my day and a confute in the dark making me feel safe and loved. Even now that I am older I still can see what a relief it was for a little girl like me to have a friend like you. I still need that friend today. I am still afraid of the thing I cannot see and need something to put that spark of a smile back on my face. So if by some chance you are reading it maybe you can drop me a line.
Miss you Mr. monkey!

Future Kids Letter

Dear Future son/daughter,
I just want you to know even think I haven't I have been there. I know what it's like to feel like the outsider in some situations, but I also know about how it feels to be totally over drawn in other situations. I know you live any a different age then me! Guise what no matter what age in time kids still have the same problems. I hope you can rise above the bad things in life and reach towards the light. I can't tell you I have always been the good person and sometime you can't be that person. You need to still strive to honor the love and encouragement you yourself were given. You never know when one act of kindness can lift another person's life. Maybe even changing it for the better. This next few weeks in high school are going be hard with ACT or what ever their having you take for college these days, but don't worry about it to much. In fact get out every weekend and just run away form the homework for a few hours. You need your time to get through your junior year. YES YOU ARE GOING TO COLLEGE!
Just have fun and know no matter what you do I Love you.

Love Your Future Mom

The Dream Never to End

Everyone has a dream that they wish would not ever end.

Mine is more like a space in time I could be swept off my feet or saved by my handsome knight is shining armor.

Usually in these dreams I am the warrior princess of the land, there is usually some parrel to over come as well. Most of the time it is similar to the story of Romie and Juliet. My love and I are not allowed to be together either because some familly fude or their ranks in soticity. Through all the odds some how in the end we end up together and ride off into the sunset. I guess the countiunes of this story would be for us to go live in a castle prefurbly by the sea. Eventualy have little ones of our own. Growing old with each other and still never becoming tired of each other.
