WHAT QUESTIONS DO YOU HAVE?

Since this is a Confession Blog, is there anything you want to know about me? There's not much I haven't seen or done,people seem to see me as their ~Dear Abby~ in the friendship ,so ask away! If I can help I will and If your just being nosey I guess I will respect you for having the ~oompas~ to  ask ,so I just MAY answer you (=

I pretty much feel like an open book. If I want to share with you I will, if I don't its for no other reason that there's something about you that I'm just not sure of yet! It doesn't take long for you to win my trust over! So, come on talk to me! Make this your Bitch site! Your Confession (anonymous) site to set your conscience free! You know the old saying ~The truth shall set you free~!!Once y'all start I hope it will get easier and you get more comfortable with it and me! I started this Blog in hopes that it could help or be an outlet for you and me! I still believe that! I believe we all have ALOT to say/confess/get off our chest OR even to advertise something you yourself are trying to do!! Feel free......here's your forum!!

Do with it as you please and I will try to assist you at all turns!! Now come on Blogger Buddies!! Tell Roxs ALLLLL about it!! If you've followed my life the last year I enjoy hearing and helping others, it keeps me from dwelling on my ~stuff~ which I will cont to share as time goes on!

I believe you will be very amazed at how much we all have in common and at how much we can help each other. My Blogger Buddies have been awsum listeners and what I love most is their not afraid to tell me like it is......out of concern.....no other reason...... how awsum is that!!!


Tell Dear Roxs all about it, if I don't have a suitable answer I Guarantee you-you will have it in 24hours!!! Tell me funny stories too! Let this be a Blog people feel at home on! Ask away, make all the statements you want!! I'm so excited to hear about your life or help you! So confess, gripe,ask our opinion, tell us what that special person in your life is doing to make you happy/sad./angry. Most of us have a ~Monster-in-Law~ of some kind (God Bless you if you dont....Im SO jealous!), kids,pets,job or just an annoying neighbor, friend or relative! I know I certainly do...........INQUIRING MINDS WANT TO KNOW AND LOVE TO HELP!!

Disclaimer (;  Altho I do have training in this field.....its called life there is no degree hanging on my wall for this talent! If it was possible ALL my walls would be full!

Carbs

Well, tomorrow is the start of yet another diet! Seems the one that works best for me is a low or no carb diet! I'm hoping to lose 50lbs before the end of the year! No reason...just cause! Cause I'm tired of being tired! Cause I'm tired of feeling exhausted! Cause I'm tired of buying a double digit in clothes! Cause I'm bumping a ~certain~ age that I know will begin to be harder and harder to lose weight! Most of all......cause I'm sick and tired of being over weight!!

I'm up for all the support I can get! So, if you get bored and wanna pop in and say ~way to go~ ...~ keep it up....you CAN DO IT~!  Feel free.......Its all good and I'm excited to go on this journey yet again in my life! I pray this will be the last time and I wont give in to stress and all the bad habits that come along with it! So I gotta go so I can empty this bag of skittles......I WILL not eat any more sugar after tonight, I will not eat any more sugar after tonight.....ok....I will not eat much sugar after tonight, I will not eat much sugar after tonight.....ok.....I will TRY to not go into a sugar or carb coma when the diets over.......hows that?!

Im O.k...............

Seems to be a ~generic~ statement doesn't it! One that makes you question others or yourself when its said. What does ~O.k.~ mean.....good bad or indifferent?! I seem to say that alot. Its the first thing that comes out of my mouth ~O.k.~! How are you? O.k.! Hows the kids? O.k.? Hows your husband? O.k.?  How was lunch? It was O.k!

Funny to see it in print.........I don't want to be arrogant and say ,Fan-freakintastic~ or Gloomy and say It Sucks............that one tends to throw people ha ha. Its funny because most people just ask  as ~generically~ as our response. Since Ive worked for the public most of my life I throw people for ~thanking them~ when Ive been the one to help. Its also another generic response......Thank You! I Thank everyone just out of habit. Maybe I'm from that Era of OKs and Thank yous?!

I appreciate it tho in a weird kinda way. I want to think everyone IS OK! I want to Thank people for being kind, helpful or just for being them! So, I'm going to say its ~O.k. to say O.k. and Thank people~ So, O.K...............life is good and it is O.K. (= Thank you for stopping by and have a Great week!!!

GOOD NITE-GOD BLESS AND I PRAY ALL GOOD THINGS COME YOUR WAY AND HAPPINESS AND WELLNESS IS IN THAT PRAYER..............................AND THIS I TRULY MEAN!

MUCH LOVE BLOGGER FREINDS

Acquaintances

You know those people, you see them at your weekly shopping mart,you know someone they know but wouldn't necessarily call a friend. I have many acquaintances, I don't know some of their names, but I always remember their face.

So one of these ''Acquaintances'' I will refer to as ''AQ'' decided she would tell me her life story one day at work and ask me pending her up coming divorce if I knew any single men! Her preferences were -a non alcoholic,has a home, but especially has a job lol . She seemed normal and her requirements were pretty basic, so my quest began!

I had NO idea what I was getting into. Im starting to believe I was set up !!

I CONFESS

I am one of the few people enjoying the summer E. Tx heat! I hate the cold and even tho this heat is stifling it makes me feel better! I seem to find sweating doesn't bother me like it ust to....I guess its a good thing I came to this conclusion or I would be miserable!

Just the feel of the sun shine is invigorating! Maybe the hot flashes the last year has geared me up for this summer lol Now I do realize I do not work outside and would probably have a whole different attitude about it if I did! (or so my family insists lol)

I see the sunshine as happy and not depressing! I believe I have the ~winter blues~ so the closer to summer the more excited I get! I have found myself this year just going outside with a drink and sitting alone enjoying the ''heat'' and quiet! I believe I am the only crazy one doing this with-out a pool lol

Where do you live? Whats been going on in your neck of the woods, mountains, desert or ocean view?

Has this happened to you? You just finished stuffing your face with sodium-filled Chinese food, when the waitress delivers your bill complete with a psychic-powered cookie. My husband opens his and it states, “People appreciate your fun loving personality.” My other friends open theirs and there oozing with goodness and riches!

If your blood wasn’t now moving at water driplet speed, it would boil as you belt, “This cookie is empty! Why, it’s no fortune at all. NOTHING!!. But what are the fortune cookie Gods trying to tell me !” Am I not worthy?!Unfortunately for your Ass, you’ve consumed a weekend’s worth of calories in thirty minutes. So you grunt, loosen your belt, and grab a toothpick on your way out the door.

With the power of mathematics, I’ve taken it upon myself to expose fortune cookie manufacturers’ evil plot to cheat us and do 1 out of 10 empty so as you ponder your future until your next highly salted msg meal!

According to this one............I have no fortune..........so its all in how you take it I guess..........ughhh how do you take it? Am I not worthy of one or is my life so freaking fantastic they cant find one to fit me! Yea.............

CEO BP Tony Hayward

Tony Hayward of BP had the nerve to comment that HE wanted His life back.....................so do the families of the 11 that died as do all the people that survived, all the people who have lost their lively hood, the Marsh Lands, the animals, the volunteers and the YEARS of damage this has caused. YOU want your life back...........seriously?!!

The people in the Region of the spill feel helpless. There is nothing they can do, so for the sake of them, I would avoid public statements such as this! The President Of The United States made a statement that if he were bp he would have already fired him! This man may need to step back and only read the speeches wrote for him!

Lets all pray someone can get this catastrophe under control and soon!

Teacher Fired For Pre-Marital Sex

Hummmmmmm...................................That may be a tuff one! I wonder how many teachers or even Presidents would have a career if that was the criteria?! Is this what the job market has come to? Do we judge our employees on merit or if they've had sex before?!

Now I could see if you were at a Nunnery where celibacy was a requirement. I think if we can just get some of the teachers to not have sex with the students that would be a plus! We just had a similar circumstance in our small town and to me THATS appalling!

I honestly could care less what their sex life was as long as its not a topic of conversation or done on a class-room table.....................just my opinion!

SOCK MONKEY

I love the..... commercial who has Gumbie, The Sock Monkey etc. The sock monkey costume really impresses me......guess it doesn't take much lol

We were going thru our grandmothers house a few weeks back and as we looked thru the boxes I became so excited! I actually ''YELLED'' Sock Monkey. It was too funny they didn't know if I was crazy or just converting back to my childhood!

It did bring back a flood of memories. Memories of innocence,of spending time with my grandmother crocheting,quilting,making sock monkeys even pet rocks.....now that's a whole other story on the pet rock thing .

But, the one that I hold dear was the original brown and white one! We would crochet ,quilt them and just sew them up from scrap! I miss those days and God do I miss her! She taught me so much of the 'simple'' life! You know just doing stuff at home, being creative, using what you had on hand and this took creativity etc.

She also was a well known Artist. Her work is all over- from E TX to Holly Wood And beyond! I just feel the need to say ,''THANK YOU GRANDMOTHER AND I WISHED ID LISTENED BETTER..........YOU ARE ONE OF MY HERO'S AND ANGELS, LOVE YOU!

~TOO FUNNY~

I just noticed my posts on this site are extremely random. I go from Tanning to -Sex And The City -to Church! I guess that just goes to show I'm very versatile huh!

I really have no confessions etc today just thought it was funny and figured I should acknowledge that or people may think I'm ''imbalanced'' or a little ''out-there''!

Actually I hate to tell you I'm neither. I just roll with the punches and say whats on my mind or what ''bugs'' or me makes me happy/sad/glad on any given day!

That's it folks........................


Have an awsum Memorial Day Weekend! Be safe - Be Happy and DON'T Drink and Drive!!

Sunday

As we attended church Sunday it was bitter sweet! We had an awsum service congratulating the High School Seniors, their accomplishments and keeping God in their life.

The bitter sweet part is our Pastor is moving to another Church. They need him and he will do great things there Im sure, but he will be greatly missed.

I pray we get someone who will continue to lift up our Church Family and Community.

~SEX AND THE CITY~

I am a SEX AND THE CITY FAN!!!! I love-love-love it!! My friends laugh because I have all of us as the characters.....noone wants to admit to being Samantha lmao. I think we all have alittle of her in us.

I have already set up a date with the girls of drinks (cosmos of course) and a movie!
After we watch it Ill be back on with rave reviews Im sure! Im sooooo excited....I love me some Aiden and Mr Big (=

Everyone go watch it too and come back and tell me your review and best or worst parts! Im sure youll love it......

I AM A TANNER

I have Owned and Operated a Tanning Buisness for over 20yrs off and on.....mainly on! Indoor tanning was actually invented in Europe as a Theraputic exercise to help elevate vitamin D levels. Humans make an estimated 90% of their Vitamin D from sun exposure to the skin, with UVB in sunlight triggering natural vitamin D production. With research now connecting vitamin D sufficiency with lower rates of many cancers, heart disease, multiple sclerosos, osteoporous, and many other disorders, with our modern day lifestyles which is denying the body regular UV exposure.

Professional indoor tanning industry is doing its part to help individuals of all skin types minimize their risks by teaching them how to avoid sunburn at all costs.

Alot of negative studies do not take into consideration confounding variables such as outdoor exposure to sunlight,childhood sunburns,type of tanning equiptment utilized and the duration and quantity of exposure.

I did not allow my customers to tan over 5-7mins their first session.(went up in 2min increments) You never tanned over 15min, more than once in a 24hr period and if they were ever red or sun burnt I did not allow them to tan period! Thats responsibile buisness. I know all Salons were not like me, but on the most part they are.

The Tanning Industry gets a bad rap and like anything we do can be abused. Espically when many patrons abuse the sun and own their own beds. Tanning in moderation can help medically (as it does me with fibromyalgia), and as above stated, is a great source of Vitamin D. There are side effects to ANYTHING you do! IF you tan in moderation IF you tan sensibly IF you do as instructed and IF you keep a close eye on your body and ANY abnormal moles etc you CAN tan successfully IF you are opposed to tanning then dont and IF your family heridity includes skin cancer then common sense should tell you NOT to tan! Every choice we make comes with consequences, be wise and do whats best for you! If you do not tan in the sun then odds are you will not tan indoors....again be wise!I dont like Dr Pepper , so I choose not to drink it.......its that simple (-;

Gripe Site

I decided from my post on ''The Gripe Site'', that I should reward myself for all my diligent work these days! So what did I want? I want a weekend at the beach with the girls......thats what I want! Truthfully, I already had this planned before I set the seed in the hubbies head! Gotta love 'em.

So, thats exactly what Im going to do and my hubbie the awsum guy that he is said,'' I dont care if you go baby!'' THEN he says......''How much is it gonna cost me??!'' Now normally this would have set me off, but we are dealing with College kids etc and I did shut down my busness, so technically it is ''his'' money. Ughh I hate to even write that. (note: I have worked straight for 35yrs) I told him he'd know when I got back.....sound good?

I didnt want to tell him the Condo was free, because its a friends Aunts. Why didnt I want him to know? Because I was in the process of sharing this information when he asked THE question!! So now he will have to sweat it out until my safe arrival home lol Yes, I did say it was ''technically'' his money, BUT its ''technically'' my pride when he asks THAT question (-;

I figure after helping to buy the bacon,cooking the bacon and serving up the bacon for 26yrs he would have learned NOT to ask certain questions lol Men never learn....some questions are ment to be thought but not said. Hummmm........I think I need some new clothes for this 3day trip......yep, that should help my pride!!

What??!!

Whats the deal here? Why does the concept of having a confession freak people out? I have never known ''anyone'' who doesnt have a daily mishap! This is a blog to make lite of it, ease your conscience or even just thought it was funny or nice!!

So, I will start a daily confession, it maybe something I did or something I witnessed............................to be cont.............
