  • Many tears have been cried. Much pain felt. But God is there in it all. So much more thinking and praying to do...

    Be still my soul
    The Lord is on your side
    Bear patiently
    The cross of grief or pain
    Leave to thy God
    To order and provide
    In every change
    He faithful will remain.

    Be still my soul
    Thy best, thy heavenly friend
    Through stormy ways
    Leads to a joyful end.

  • I just heard this song on the radio. I really like it. Thank God for His Redeeming Love!!

    She is running
    A hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction
    She is trying
    But the canyon's ever widening
    In the depths of her cold heart
    So she sets out on another misadventure just to find
    She's another two years older
    And she's three more steps behind

    Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
    Or does anybody even know she's going down today
    Under the shadow of our steeple
    With all the lost and lonely people
    Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me
    Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?

    She is yearning
    For shelter and affection
    That she never found at home
    She is searching
    For a hero to ride in
    To ride in and save the day
    And in walks her prince charming
    And he knows just what to say
    Momentary lapse of reason
    And she gives herself away

    Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
    Or does anybody even know she's going down today
    Under the shadow of our steeple
    With all the lost and lonely people
    Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me
    Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?

    If judgment looms under every steeple
    If lofty glances from lofty people
    Can't see past her scarlet letter
    And we've never even met her

    If judgment looms under every steeple
    If lofty glances from lofty people
    Can't see past her scarlet letter
    And we've never even met her

    Never even met her

    Does anybody hear her? Does anybody see?
    Or does anybody even know she's going down today
    Under the shadow of our steeple
    With all the lost and lonely people
    Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me

    Does anybody hear her? Does anybody see?
    Does anybody even know she's going down today?
    Under the shadow of our steeple
    With all the lost and lonely people
    Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me
    Does anybody hear her? Does anybody see?

    He is running a hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction

    my date.

    Over the past two days a certain 5 year old boy has been tugging at my shirt saying "you haven't taken me on a date lately. we need to go on a date soon, Bexie." Over the past 2-3 days I have been living with this nasty cold()...so this morning I decided I was going to kind of take it easy today...after getting up, eating some breakfast, I was checking my email(facebook, myspace, blogspots, etc) and Jummers came up to me "We have a new movie. its called Bee Movie! Come watch it with me" So...off to the basement we went. I love animated movies and the puns in them that little kids don't get...its rather entertaining! After the movie we both decided we should take Zachary(our tall, 16 year old brother who is working with some friends of ours reconstructing a house) and the guys some Oreo's and Pepsi and then treat ourselves to a McDonald's $1 sundae! We got down our lane and my little buddy looks at me and grins..."Can we play Soulja Boy?!" So...we car danced to Soulja Boy...and we pretty much rock at it!     After we dropped off the treats to the guys, got our sundaes, we went to Walmart and just walked around, bought some balloons, candles, airheads, and popbottles. "That was a good date, Bexie!" Jummers said as we were blaring Soulja Boy once again. I love my little brother

    I am alive!! I haven't been gracing the internet with my presence very much these days.

    Work has consumed most of my life...just ask my family and friends here in town. I think I spend more time at work than I do at home. I am getting a big phat paycheck today...i had better anyways...i worked my butt of these past two weeks...wait...no, my butt is still there but...you get the idea! I have pulled several doubles(lunch shift then dinner shift. which works out to be 12 hours all in all). I like my job though!

    When I haven't been working I have been sleeping...but I have had time to do various fun activities! such as...

    The day after Thanksgiving I went shopping with Andrea and Tilly in Blowing Rock! I had lots of fun getting to know Andrea better and walking around in the freezing wind.

    Mom and Dad got us a Christmas tree(fake though. :gags:) but I had the fun of overseeing the decorating of it! There is a wide burgundy/gold ribbon wrapped around it spirally with gold ornament here and there. and to top it off we have a lovely angle with a burgundy dress sitting atop the tree. I am very happy that Christmas is almost here! Mom and Dad have allowed me to invite two of my favoritest co-workers to hang out with us here for the day! and I can't wait to see what Em says when she sees the adorable present I got her!

    Tuesday the 11th of December THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM came out on dvd!!!! So Chelsea, Tilly, and I got together at Chelea's house to watch the Bourne movies on her big huge plasma tv! During Bourne Supremacy Chelsea taught me how to play Pool...and lemme tell you...I suck big time! lol  seriously,  I don't think I could play to save my life.......but it is fun!

    and...being super excited about Larey's wedding!!! I get to be the maid of honor(:shout of glee:) and its just so exciting to see her marrying the best man for her! They are so gorgeous together and make me feel all sappy inside. :sniff: There relationship is such a beautiful thing...its mean a whole lot to me...and I love them both a lot...well I love my sister at least...I'm still trying to decide if I love Gabe. haha! I'm just kidding!

    Well...I need to be going. I wasn't planning on actually doing this when I got on the computer. I should be getting ready to go to Marion with Mom and the two littlest ones. Hopefully I am going to get a new phone today!

    Love and Hugs to all, ~Bex~
