Why I am blogging......

I started this blog to up-date others on the day-to-day events of our family. As the children grew older, and I grew wiser, I realized I wanted to change my direction, and the children wanted to be ommitted from the blog completely. I hope to still manage to include them from time to time but perhaps just through pictures. I am searching for my niche, and way to help lighten the load of others and perhaps lead others to my savior, Jesus Christ. I am focusing on "What really matters" and hopefully, I can help others in some small productive way. While I am changing gears, I will still be throwing in random thoughts, recipes and etc. I am glad you stopped by and bear with me, as I begin to grow and span my wings and fly in a new direction!

Pool update.....

As usual we thought we were prepared for the pool installation.  I only wanted to Keep one tree, it is a river Burch, sometimes called a toilet paper tree.  We had planted it not long after we moved here.  Well, the pool had to be moved over from where we wanted it, and guess what, yes the river Burch had to go.   I was sad, but it did turn out better, we can now connect our pool deck to our house deck.  Everything happens for a reason!!!  I have mellowed the older I get, I would have previously wanted the water in ASAP, the landscaping even quicker and the deck built that night!  But now, I am just happy to have a pool and the rest will come in time.  We are off to the beach so, the pool will be here when we get back.  I am excited about going to the beach, our buddies D & D are going and we ALL need to get away.  We have friends there now and say it is beautiful, no oil, no smell, so we will see.  If there happens to be oil there when we arrive, I will be on CNN, the hysterical southern woman, saying, "It sounded like a freight train when it came in"!, why does everyone say that when they are interviewed??  love and peace to all.
