ABOUT ME
"For I know the plans I have for you," says The Lord, "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you hope and a future." Jer 29:11
At times I have thought "I had different plans for myself, what happened?" I mean I do have a beautiful, fulfilling life...but I thought I would be married, have kids and own my own home at this point in my life, but after reading this verse I knew I was being told, my plans don't matter as much God's plans do. As soon as I read this verse I knew that I had to "let go and let God" work through me in the ways that he had planned for me. It's hard to give up the "control" we have for our own lives and try to live, truly, through God, but I have been trying. In what I think may be a disaster, I have to remind myself that there is a reason that God wants me to go through this right now. I always try to find the lesson that God is trying to teach me in situations, and usually find what I THINK he is trying to tell me.
I hope, for those of you who are not where you thought you would be at this point in your life, that this verse helps you to "let go and let God" work through you in his beautiful ways.
Remember...when you ask God to come into your life, really believe that he will come into your life and change it and you, don't just think or hope He that will.....
My Favorite view in the world...looking out the back door of my parents house...it never gets old
Exercise your sense of generosity. In fact, giving of yourself, your time and your possessions acts like physical activity on you; you feel healthier, more energetic and more alive.
DARE TO BE HAPPY!!!

THE TAURUS GIRL
LOVE:
When it comes to matters of the heart, Taureans are extremely passionate. Even though you realize that it takes a lot of different elements to make a love relationship work, you can’t have a great relationship if the chemistry isn’t right. You make a loving and loyal partner, and you understand the importance of balancing romance with common sense. You can be rather picky when choosing a love interest, and you feel that you should never settle for anything less than true love. You know that without passion, there is no hope that the relationship can last. Your highly sensual nature makes you a passionate lover and mate. You love the simple acts of affection that bond the two of you together, like holding hands and stealing kisses.
There are certain things that you require of your mate, and loyalty and honesty are at the very top of that list. You need to feel that your mate not only loves you but also supports your personal and career choices.
FRIENDSHIP:
Where friendship is concerned, there is nobody better than you. Taureans make loyal, affectionate and loving friends. You have a great deal of empathy for others, and because of this ability people often come to you for advice.
You probably have a wide circle of friends from all areas of your life and experience, including people from work, neighbors and old friends from college, high school or even childhood. You are good at keeping in touch with your pals, especially during holidays and birthdays. You are the type who always remembers special days – birthdays, anniversaries, etc.
You are a very nurturing individual when it comes to friendships. But that doesn’t mean that you don’t know how to have fun, because you do. In fact, you are one of the most social-minded and party-loving signs – not to mention, highly talented and successful at throwing the most wonderful parties and get-togethers. You like making new friends and love meeting new and extremely fascinating people.
Yet there is another side to your nature. Though you will forgive just about anything on the part of a friend, you are not likely to forgive disloyalty. You will always uphold your part of the friendship, but if someone lets you down, you are sure to end the friendship. In your book, disloyalty to a friend is just about the worst sin a person can commit.
Guys Like That You're Fun
You're the type of girl guys brag about knowing
That's because you're cool, funny, and laid back
You're smart enough to know how to be one of the guys
But flirty enough to know how to make them all want you What Do Guys Like About You?
I had two answers for some of the questions so I took it twice :) ....
Guys Like That You're Charming
You're the girl most guys can't get out of their heads
Even if they met you on a bad hair day :-)
You just seem to "click" with everyone you meet
So even if a guy forgets about you for a second... his friends haven't! What Do Guys Like About You?
You Belong in Rome
You're a big city girl with a small town heart
Which is why you're attracted to the romance of Rome
Strolling down picture perfect streets, cappuccino in hand
And gorgeous Italian men - could life get any better? What City Do You Belong In?
I love my doggies :)
Sweetie...she gets cold in the winter :)
Tug...he made his own doggie door through our screen door :)
My lil...I mean big niece Copper aka Coppy aka Bopper
Zoey is now in little doggy heaven...
