OMG It’s Tuesday and that means I can do a ‘10’ blog!

1.   1.       My favorite Aunt passed away on the 1st and while she may have been ‘everyone’s favorite’, I was her favorite. As a matter of fact, she begged my mother to give me to her when I was born. My mother didn’t, obviously, but she did name me after her and my Uncle. (Don and Carol = Donna Carol)

2.       I know Carol was tickled pink when she saw the whole family together again. It’s been years since we’ve all been together. A few of us have even reconnected on facebook. I hope we can all stay in touch better now.

3.       I find it humorous when someone cannot, under any circumstances, take responsibility for something they messed up on. I find it funnier when they will almost hurt themselves trying to blame someone else for their mistakes.

4.       The roller ball on my phone is sticking. I’m really starting to not like Blackberry as much anymore.

5.       Amanda graduated with her Bachelor of Business Administration degree in December. Just a word of advice: don’t let your child graduate in December unless you’re independently wealthy. It makes their graduation and Christmas very stressful. We did it, but I wouldn’t want to do it again. Make no mistake; I’m still very proud of her though!!

6.       My sister from Oklahoma and I got some serious visiting time while we were in Odessa last week. It was pretty awesome.

7.       I have pictures to post of the calendars I did for people for 2010. But now supposedly mom and Christy want a calendar too so I’m trying to get those done. I think they were just being nice.

8.       Cabinet is about to start meeting again (where they decide if Daniel has to move or not). I can’t believe it’s already that time!!

9.       It’s only January 12th and we’ve already had snow 3 different times! It’s the strangest weather I’ve ever seen for this area.

10.   2010 is going to be a brand new year with a brand new outlook. I have got to let go of this animosity towards certain people. It’s harder than I thought it would be. Satan keeps putting irritants right in front of me.

Fw: THE QUESTION THAT CHANGED MY LIFE

wow...this gets ya to thiking about your/my motive in serving God.

THE QUESTION THAT CHANGED MY LIFE

by David Ryser.

 

A number of years ago, I had the privilege of teaching at a school of ministry. My students were hungry for God, and I was constantly searching for ways to challenge them to fall more in love with Jesus and to become voices for revival in the Church. I came across a quote attributed most often to Rev. Sam Pascoe. It is a short version of the history of Christianity, and it goes like this:

Christianity started in Palestine as a fellowship; it moved to Greece and became a philosophy; it moved to Italy and became an institution; it moved to Europe and became a culture; it came to America and became an enterprise.

Some of the students were only 18 or 19 years old--barely out of diapers--and I wanted them to understand and appreciate the import of the last line, so I clarified it by adding, "An enterprise. That's a business." After a few moments Martha, the youngest student in the class, raised her hand. I could not imagine what her question might be. I thought the little vignette was self-explanatory, and that I had performed it brilliantly. Nevertheless, I acknowledged Martha's raised hand, "Yes, Martha." She asked such a simple question, "A business? But isn't it supposed to be a body?" I could not envision where this line of questioning was going, and the only response I could think of was, "Yes." She continued, "But when a body becomes a business, isn't that a prostitute?"

The room went dead silent. For several seconds no one moved or spoke. We were stunned, afraid to make a sound because the presence of God had flooded into the room, and we knew we were on holy ground. All I could think in those sacred moments was, "Wow, I wish I'd thought of that." I didn't dare express that thought aloud. God had taken over the class.

Martha's question changed my life. For six months, I thought about her question at least once every day. "When a body becomes a business, isn't that a prostitute?" There is only one answer to her question. The answer is "Yes." The American Church , tragically, is heavily populated by people who do not love God. How can we love Him? We don't even know Him; and I mean really know Him.

I stand by my statement that most American Christians do not know God--much less love Him. The root of this condition originates in how we came to God. Most of us came to Him because of what we were told He would do for us. We were promised that He would bless us in life and take us to heaven after death. We married Him for His money, and we don't care if He lives or dies as long as we can get His stuff. We have made the Kingdom of God into a business, merchandising His anointing. This should not be. We are commanded to love God, and are called to be the Bride of Christ--that's pretty intimate stuff. We are supposed to be His lovers. How can we love someone we don't even know? And even if we do know someone, is that a guarantee that we truly love them? Are we lovers or prostitutes?

I was pondering Martha's question again one day, and considered the question, "What's the difference between a lover and a prostitute?"  I realized that both do many of the same things, but a lover does what she does because she loves. A prostitute pretends to love, but only as long as you pay. Then I asked the question, "What would happen if God stopped paying me?"

For the next several months, I allowed God to search me to uncover my motives for loving and serving Him. Was I really a true lover of God? What would happen if He stopped blessing me? What if He never did another thing for me? Would I still love Him? Please understand, I believe in the promises and blessings of God. The issue here is not whether God blesses His children; the issue is the condition of my heart. Why do I serve Him? Are His blessings in my life the gifts of a loving Father, or are they a wage that I have earned or a bribe/payment to love Him? Do I love God without any conditions? It took several months to work through these questions. Even now I wonder if my desire to love God is always matched by my attitude and behavior. I still catch myself being disappointed with God and angry that He has not met some perceived need in my life. I suspect this is something which is never fully resolved, but I want more than anything else to be a true lover of God.

So what is it going to be? Which are we, lover or prostitute? There are no prostitutes in heaven, or in the Kingdom of God for that matter, but there are plenty of former prostitutes in both places. Take it from a recovering prostitute when I say there is no substitute or unconditional, intimate relationship with God. And I mean there is no palatable substitute available to us (take another look at Matthew 7:21-23 sometime). We must choose.

Tuesday 10

1. I think I'm starting a pattern of only showing up when I can do a list. Ya, I'm sooo counting this as one!
2. Amanda got her invitations in yesterday. They are so pretty - and I am SOOOOOOO proud! :)
3. We were off from work all last week (no paper) and I am having the hardest time getting back to work! I'm pretty worthless - more than usual. lol
4. It's been fairly cold here, which is a major shock. It's never cold and especially not this early. I love it when it's cold!
5. Apparently, I feel the need to use the exclamation mark a lot today!! Because I keep doing it!!! haha
6. I have a posterous blog - and I like it. I can link everything there, but what is up with that flickr connection?! It says something like I have to give it permission to upload, edit and replace my photos. WHAT?! 
7. I guess you can't connect Multiply to Posterous. They 'ran into a problem' and I guess can't fix it. And they call themselves experts! lol
8. Has anyone done anything for Christmas yet? I can not believe it's already December! Where did the time go this year??? Daniel hasn't even gotten the tree out yet. Last year, it was December 15th before we decorated. I told him this year I wanted to decorate Thanksgiving week. Did we? Nope! 
9. I broke my pinky fingernail at lunch today. It really hurts and I'm really going to whine about it. haha I was going to take a picture but my left hand is retarded and doesn't know how to work the camera so I'll try to get Daniel to take one after work. I feel kinda funny asking a co-worker to take a picture of my nail. LOL These people just don't understand the importance of blogging and sharing the strange details of your life with others. 
10. I got Amanda & Ashlea's calendar done, except for adding the holidays. I like the way they turned out. I would liked to have had a black coil for Amanda's since her calendar is black & pink but I only had small black ones so I used clear. Daniel went to Michael's the other day and bought a couple of cartridges for my cricut. One of them, Designer Calendar, is not a Christmas present - I decided when I saw it. I want to use it now. lol He was not happy but I opened it anyway. It's really neat! And if I decided to do a wall calendar, I'll have all kinds of cool stuff I can add. But, even if I just do the weekly/monthly ones, I can add holidays. I love my cricut machine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Friday 5

This should be fairly easy, AND I get to boast that I posted a blog today so GO ME!!!

1. I finally downloaded Google Chrome. I like it. It's so Martha Stewart it's not even funny (it's a good thing). 

2. I paid for flickr, again. I did that several years ago but when my year was over I just never renewed it. It's not letting me upload much today. My internet connection is awful though, it keeps kicking me off line today. I'm not too happy about that. Daniel says it's Windstream... Yea for us...

3. I got a new 'toy' for scrapbooking. It's called a YourStory from ProvoCraft. I haven't made a book yet but I think I'm going to start with one about Ginger & Hal. I want to make both the girls one for Christmas. I was thinking about starting it with the first picture taken of them when they were born but Ashlea didn't act too thrilled about it when I mentioned it. She said she didn't even like that picture. So, now I don't know what I'm going to do. 

4. I've been gone awhile but it sure seems slow in the blogging community. I haven't noticed much going on over the past few days. Is it the holidays coming or is everyone in the same lull I've been in? lol

5. I have a bunch to do before Christmas and I'm not getting very far. I have to make 7 more calendars, 5 YourStory books and a couple of recipe books. I want to make a recipe book of the girls favorite recipes from Daniel. Or maybe just cards, depending on the time I end up with. I know Amanda's favorite is French Silk Pie. It's what she always asks for on her birthday or any holiday. I have these giant paper clip things that you turn upside down on a counter or desk and I'm going to put that recipe on a card for her. Ashlea loves his spaghetti but I think that would be too long to put on a card - he's very indepth. lol

Okay, a blog; 5 different things and bragging rights are now done! :)

go you.... when do you know you are chasing your tail or ahead of it?

Well, ya know some kids aren't happy even if they were hung with a gold rope. Make the book for Ashlea and keep it for yourself. Bet when she sees it and you say you are keeping it she will want it. Reverse psychology.

It is slow around here. With actual blogging especially. 

A mini recipe book would be a good gift for anyone. 

I just want to get Thanksgiving under my belt but am determined to find a tree that doesn't take three days to put together.

zfrog wrote on Nov 14
This is the time of year you usually disappear so things are upside down in blogworld right now. It has been really slow here.
Make the book. She won't appreciate it until she has kids but make it now.
I am thinking about google chrome because I dislike the one I am using now.

Updating

I've been updating, so to speak, for a couple of days now. I played around with my yahoo and msn profiles this afternoon for a while and last night I found a google profile. I'm not really sure what the purpose of all these profiles is - if it's to streamline your stuff into one place, they are failing miserably where I'm concerned. I love that you can show all your stuff on your profile though - well, except other profiles. I wonder what's up with that. Narrow-minded people!

I found a very good high school friend on facebook recently. We did everything together and just kind of lost touch soon after high school was over. I had Amanda and she...well, I'm not sure what she did. But I ran into her at a restaurant one day about 15 years ago so I knew her last name had changed. I saw her on fb and sent her a message. Pretty cool!

Tomorrow (or today, depending on how you look at it) is Odessa-day. I love Odessa-day because it's the day I see my two favorite kiddos. They probably don't love it nearly as much as I do, but they are gracious and spend the day with me if they aren't working. lol 

It's only the middle of November and already Daniel and I are busy getting ready for Christmas! It seems to come earlier every year! But, we talked about trying to decorate earlier this year - maybe in the next week or two I hope. At least then it won't sneak up on us like it has the last two years. I tell ya, I never realized how much the girls did for decorating until they moved out. Since they have been gone we have barely gotten the decorations out before Christmas. Maybe I should think about paying them to come decorate my house. lol

Ashlea's bf had talked about them staying home for Thanksgiving and going to his parent's house for Christmas. I wasn't very happy about that but I do realize it's not all about me so I was trying to deal. But then, he mentioned they may go to his parent's house for Thanksgiving since that's a more 'family type holiday' for them anyway and staying home for Christmas. I am a happy camper, I just hope they do that! I would rather give up Thanksgiving than Christmas any day!

Amanda found out she doesn't have to work until later in the day on Black Friday so she is going shopping with me this year. I love that! I always like to go with her or Ashlea on Friday. Daniel is no fun because he just stands there and looks annoyed. Amanda and Ashlea pick out a lot of their stuff and actually help. They always know pretty much everything they are getting but at 23 and 20, I guess that's ok.

I'm off to visit a little and then to bed so I can get up in the morning. :)

I told Flossy on Halloween that we should put up the tree. she just rolled her eyes and said 'no way!' LOL

Finding long lost friends is such a good feeling

as well as seeing or talking with the kids. One of mine is in Arizona & the other in Colorado (better than Iraq) Jake called Sunday for my chili ingredients & amounts, spoke with Dan yesterday & it lifts my spirits, pops my dimples, twinkles my eyes

They will all be in Colorado for Christmas. We're thinking about not decorating. 

Kids picking out what they need or want is a blessing. Otherwise cash is my favorite option to give to them. It's the right color, size and can be used anytime.

Hi donna,
good to read your entry. I have not been on much. Can never remember my sign on or password. It is a bear getting old. Christmas comes too early every year for me too. Will post an entry soon. Have a great day.

Facebook is good for that. I have just reunited with six grade school chums. I went to lunch with four of them today and they have not changed a bit as far as the way they act. These were walk home from school pals who all lived within a couple of miles from me. It was fun.

I like Thanksgiving the best because I like doing the meal then. I hate Christmas meal but love seeing the kids then. My daughter cooks but my sister doesn't, never has and mom is just too old to do it. The kids have so many places they have to go it's hard for my kiddo to do the cooking.

Both of those statements are so true! So true, you feel it in your heart, you know? 

I can't imagine what I will do when the day comes that my girls don't come home for Christmas. I know it's coming, I just don't know what I'm going to do when it does. Of course, Daniel's 'job' lends itself to them not being about to come to our house...

I've tried 3 years in a row to give them cash and they both throw a fit every year. They keep telling me there's no fun in cash - so I make them pick out their own gifts. Personally, cash was always a "fun" gift for me just fine, but I guess for them knowing exactly what you're getting because you were there and picked it out yourself when it was bought is more "fun" than just getting cash. Go figure.

And somedays that's all I think it's good for. Don't get me wrong, I like facebook but if I get one more gift or invitation to something I may scream! lol I just started hitting 'ignore' on everything - even the causes. That probably makes me un-American but I don't care. I looked the other day and I've joined like 38 causes, 42 groups and God only knows how many apps I am now 'sharing my information, photos and contacts' with. One of the things I liked about fb on the phone was that all of that was gone from the phone app. But, they did an upgrade and now some of that shows up too. I saw today where so-and-so was a great farmer because she fertilized someone else's farm. :(

The holidays worry me. I'm a worrier anyway but now, with the possibility of us moving each year and the girls both talking about not wanting to stay in Odessa, if I let it - it would completely consume my life. I am trying not to think about it too much, but you know how that goes.

osuzana wrote on Nov 13
I have only joined one cause I think and ignore a lot of stuff myself. In gmail I checked all the notifications I have been getting and made a filter for them so they go to the trash. It is time consuming. Some I take some I don't.

Well, as far as the holidays, you do what you have to and they will too and you just take it as it comes. You are right. You just can't dwell on it.

Truths about me

Over the past 5 - 7 years, I have done a lot of growing, so to speak - learned a few things about myself that I am usually hesitant to share with others. But I'm in a funk, so I'm sharing one of those truths here - now.

If I don't have something to challenge me, I get bored. Very bored. I do not like the routine of doing the same thing day after day. There have been several things that make this truth very obvious if you know me at all. I am forever 'leaving' this blog or that blog, or I am depressed, or I'm fighting with Daniel. Really, I'm bored. Multiply is great because it's easy to learn - which also made it boring very early on; hence, I'm not here much. Blogger was more of a challenge to learn but it was also the first place I was. I hadn't blogged before that. Of course, that blog has long since been deleted. Now, I have a different blogger, a WordPress, a Multiply, (and a couple I won't name because that's why I have them - lol). Also, facebook, myspace and twitter for socializing. Not to mention facebook and twitter for the church and a website (however, not that great - YET).

But, I'm bored. Like out of my mind bored. So I stop getting online and start doing something else. And then I have the family coming to my facebook 'are you okay Donna?' 'where are you Donna?" "are you mad?" blah blah blah.

My boss started a conversation yesterday and, honestly, I don't even know how it got around to this subject but it did. Now she's thinking I want to quit, which - even if I did.... Hello?! Christmas is right around the corner, I CAN'T quit right now! lol The paper has no challenge at all. InDesign has been learned and we have that thing down to a fine art. We could really get the paper (it's a once a week thing) out in 2 days - easy. This week my co-worker had to be out all week for a family funeral and I did the paper by myself. I did it in 2 1/2 days. Not what I'd call a challenge. There wasn't even that sense of 'omg I have to do the whole paper by myself!!' feeling-thing.

I'm not saying I want 'problems', just some challenge. Something new to learn. Something exciting to work towards. Something to make me think and want to do it. You know what I mean, jellybean?

It is a good Thanksgiving is coming up for your guys. Here is some worth while homework:
1. list all the accomplishments you have mastered in the last year.
2. list reasons you are NOT bored with a life filled with
3. list what does fill you up
4. list people who you appreciate
5. list reasons why said people are important to YOU
6. make a bucket list
7. breathe, smell the roses, sip your coffee/wine slowly, smile, hug, laugh
8. plan thanksgiving dinner down to the quotes of thankfulness you find and print out on place cards for each person attending to read aloud. Make them personal for each person, even the children and dogs.
9. Mentally bless those who hold you dear and who you hold dear
10. Remember you are exactly in the place you are supposta be.

((((hugs))))

I have thought about this all morning and I think we all go through it to some degree. Especially those of us who like the internet and have been in a blogging community for so long. I see people leaving every day to go to social sites like twitter and facebook because lets face it when blogging was new it took a long time to get bored with it. When everyone got so many people they all of a sudden realized it wasn't that feasible to have 200 contacts and have been whittling down their contacts ever since. But when you keep a small group you get to know them well and so there is not that much diverse reading. We could hop from one thing to another but you would have to do it by yourself because lets face it a lot of people like one area or another and stick with it because it is much easier.

I know you are talking about life in general but that is just one aspect of your boredom. I used to say just quit it or pull yourself up and go on but having had some depression myself I can't do that any more. Maybe you need to talk to your doc about getting something to help you.

I think another thing is the holidays looming before us which is a busy time for you and Daniel and it can just be overwhelming before it even gets here. Why don't you guys sit down and start on the Christmas stuff early. Decide what you are doing for the church, drag the Christmas stuff out early and make your plans for the church so you don't have to do everything last minute.

You could check on your friends more often. That would take some time or are you saying we are boring too? lol

Another thing is I thought of a nice favor for the parishioners. You might make a 12 month calendar they could hang on the wall or stick in a drawer. It could be the size of matte photo paper, you could take a picture of the whole congregation and put it at the bottom of the calendar. I think I may have a template for that.

Pull up that photoshop program you have and start reading some tutorials on that. You could do the calendars in that program. You could also do your own Christmas cards or Christmas post cards. Google How to make a christmas card in photoshop and there are a lot of how tos Here is one here

There are so many things I feel I have to do and I am getting to the point where I want to be selfish and do what I want to do. Sometimes I just go through the motions.

10 on Tuesday

 

1. This is the first blog I've written since August 25th. That could explain why I seem to have lost a few friends since I was here last... lol
2. It feels like blogging has taken a backseat to most things in most people's lives that I'm connected to, including mine. I wonder why that is...
3. There are days I hate my job and very much dislike the people I work with; today was one of those days.
4. There are days I hate marriage and very much dislike the person I am married to; today was one of those days as well.
5. I feel very disconnected and lost lately. Things seem to irritate me easily and I am irritated about that.
6. I'm trying to figure out where I want to store my pictures and writings online. I had a Premium Multiply until the first of September but didn't renew it. I don't think it was what I was looking for. Of course, I'm not sure what I *am* looking for.
7. Tomorrow is Wednesday, which is the last day of work for me this week - THANK GOD!
8. I've been on facebook a lot lately but the past few days I've kinda stayed away. There are too many people there who make me feel like I can't be my normal self. I feel like I have to be 'the good wife' and not just 'me'. Yep, I'm a hypocrite, sue me.
9. Has anyone else been seeing a lot of "online sites are ruining real relationships" type of stuff lately? I seem to be running across a lot of that in the past few days. What is up with that? I mean, seriously, I feel like I know some of you BETTER than I know any 'real life' friends - and even some family members!
10. I'm so ready for winter! I am sick of this heat! I want to crawl in a hole and hibernate for a few months with nothing but my laptop and a bottle of wine!

We were cheated out of our heat this year. It has been unusually cool since August. I would like winter if I could hibernate, but instead I have more running around stuff I have to do because of the kids school and I can't drive in the dark because it scares me and it is dark before school and after school so I have to drive in the dark.
Number 4 I can relate.
I like online friends better because if I don't feel like being around people I can just not log on whereas real life friends tend to call me or ring my door bell.

I've been having the same conversations with MrP that Laurie is with her spouse. Sometimes I wonder where he is even coming from the way he rambles on.

I don't know about the blogging. I read here, I read at facebook and then don't have time to blog myself because I run out of time. 

Maybe you are beginning menopause. It makes you feel like you describe. 

It has cooled off here a lot. In the 50's this morning. Lovely with the door open.

Why don't you have a facebook with your maiden name like I do then have who you want on it. Just don't use your picture. I have a couple that have two or three facebook pages.

Sometimes I feel the same as you do. I do not like some of the people I work with. They are two faced and back stabbers. It is really sad. The weather in Delaware has been ok. Tuesday we actually had to put the heat on. I am on my vacation this week. Because my coworker got activated in the Army Reserves again and is go to Afghanastan (please pray for her), I got put in her schedule and lost a weekend on my vacation. That sucks. And get this come December 1st the schedule changes again. We are going to Ocean City this coming weekend for an Elks Convention. Should be nice. I do not know how you can stand the heat. I would never go outside. I hate the cold also. I go out as little as possible when it is really cold. Can't win.....lol Sometimes I can relate to #4......

LOL ok It just posts a link to twitter or facebook. So I guess your posts have to be public if you do that???
Comment deleted at the request of the author.

I think it always posts a link. Same when you post to twitter. It's just a way to let your contacts know you posted something.

I'm afraid to post anything and connect them because it might do that on every blog and somethings are just personal (i.e. for multiply only)!!!! LOL

Susan: I wasn't sure what it did so I posted a babble blog. lol

Karen: True, but I think it asks you every time - like when you cross-post to blogger.

Vanessa: SOOOOOO not true! I was here and THEN I saw the cool new feature! HA! lol Besides, I read sometimes - I just don't always comment. :)

Bubba: Don't get what? The link?

Poll

Bubba had the audacity to say I'm not awesomer than him - THE NERVE!!

So, I'm taking a poll. Just write in the comment box below -

Yes, Donna~K is WAY more awesomer than Bubba and always will be. She is so ultra-cool that I can not even define her awesome coolness in this space provided. Bubba, get a life and quit acting like you're more great than Donna! 

LOL

You obviously didn't read PepperJack's blog about the perception in pictures online, huh? I just don't want to appear intimidating so I take careful angles of myself pictures so no one *knows* how tall I am.

You may have a band but I am making really cool calendars and giving them to friends - what are you giving away? And even if you had the COOLEST PHONE EVER first - you didn't tell anyone so you can't really prove that you had it first. So THERE!

Yes you did so I'll give you coolness points for that but I never got no stinkin CD so you loose coolness points for that - you are right back where you started buddy!! lol

Well I am not on Bubba's friends list so you are WAY more awesome than Bubba because you have me as a friend. That ups your awesomeness by about 1000x.

Well, I am on bubba's list so I think you are both awesomely awesome. I have to say that because I don't like your poll. hahahaha I need more options in this poll. Like

None of the above

Why are all these posts showing up again in my inbox. I now have the new inbox again for the third time. They keep taking it away from me.

I know this feeling VERY well. 

Tell me, are the comments copied from elsewhere, or is this what it looks like?

LOL we were just messing around. Yes, the comments are from my blog at Multiply. Most people only want to keep the blogs they write but I like to keep the comments as well. Sometimes, it just makes the blog and reminds me of fun times we all had over something silly. :) I don't think I've ever used the poll feature.

I wish I'd been able to keep all the comments from Y360! I did import the blogs when the option was given, but most of the comments turned out like anonymous and I can't remember who wrote what.. Oh well, at least I have them..

Donnak91 said...
Me too, truffles. I saved some of my comments but not all of them. I had a 360 page and then moved to a different yahoo id so I changed my page. When I left that page, I didn't take all my blogs or comments with me - but I have most of the others. Like you, I'm glad I have them.
