Waiting for the holidays

Honestly, why do people lie. I know to many people think they are protecting someone. Usually themself. Because what they do not realize is they hurt everyone around them. Everyone really wants to believe what they are saying, but when the truth hurts, it is ok. At least it is the truth. You do not have to remember who you told what. And when you believe your own lies that is really crazy. Ok it is the holiday's and I have told a couple of things like I really do not know what is in the box. (When I really do!!!) Yes it is a lie and after next week I will tell them I knew the truth I just want to see them smile....I love Christmas when peole smile so much more.. A family member of mine is so excited because she has her daughters back home. That I think is the best Christmas present she could ever have or deserve. She has really changed her life around and deserves nothing but the best for her and her girls. I can not wait to see the girls I am sure they have grown so much. CHristmas, CHristmas time is here.... This is the cheapest Christmas we have ever had. I really feel bad that I can not spend more on everyone. But God has provided us with a wonderful family and everyone home and I think that is my riches for this christmas to have my kids all home for a short time all together. That is something I can not wait for. I love it. I do not think we have done that for a long time. It is usually one is here now one later. I think for a short time we will all be together.... Thank you God for this wonderful gift.. If I happen to not be back before Christmas, 2009, Everyone enjoy and thank you for the gift of the child.

Holiday Crazy

Yep, that is me I love the holiday's. I wish I could bottle up this wonderful feeling and sell it. I know it would be a go. But reality is I still must keep everything going. Laundry, dishes and still cooking. I really am more the run around looking like I do something but seem to get nothing done.
Right now my holiday spirit is to keep me mom and dad safe and enjoying the holiday this year. I have made sure they get out and see the area, I have helped mom send out Christmas cards. Now what I know we could do a million things but what next?
I am trying to think of something they would love to do and smile. The smile is what I like. I do not have a lot of money but you know what I think I can do more without money
I have started selling Avon, along with the Mia Bella, I find my life much easier. I know this sounds crazy to you but to me I have more things I can buy cheaper and sell in my shop. The This N That store is great I just wish I had more time for it. I know after the holidays I will but we are having our OPEN HOUSE this Saturday. I will have it done though. I work better under stress. What a laugh.....
I hate stress. DO not put it off until later just get it done. That is my way of getting things done. Why... Because I will probably forget.....
Ok enough about the holidays. Just enjoy... LIFE is too short. I also make a promise to BLOG more. Maybe that should be my New Years Resolution....If I do not forget by then.......

One Crazy MOM

I looked out the window today and what did I see, I seen a little birdie looking back at me.... The little birdie took flight and left, I stood there thinking to my self, were will he be tonight. I know were I am at tonight but what happened to the little birdie. I also look at my own family and I pray each day they all are safe at night, have a full belly and go to sleep with a smile. Life is really worth living to the most.
Last week I go the biggest shock of my life. I got a call my cousin at the age of 53 was found dead in bed. You are joking right. This person was the most energetic person I ever knew. She would do more in an hour than most would do all day. Yes she was a smoker and liked to have a drink now and then, but I asked God a hundred times, "Why Jan." I have not gotten any answer but I do know that someday I can ask him face to face "Why Jan" but by then I might have a lot more questions. And I really do because I often wonder, "Why, Justice, Uncle Claude, Sonny, Deanna, and the list goes on, and on"...
I am sure everyone has that same "WHY" Not just for the lost of a love one but for what people do in the life they live. Why does the wife cheat on her husband, why does the husband cheat on the wife, why does someone lie to make them self look better than someone else. Why lie at all. Does tellin a lie make life better? I have never seen a lie make anything better. I have only seen lies make things worse.
I have been told that I have lied about something but I can tell you and God, everyone lies sometime in their life. But was it to hurt someone, NO. I hate conflict and I really do not lie I just always hope things go the way I want. It does not always happen that way, so if that is lying then yes. ME too. I am guilty.
Can you say that you are guilty. I know I can and I am sure you are too. I want peace, no discontent. I like love, not hate. So were do you stand?

Who is Cheryl anyway

Hi I am Cheryl.. I am a daughter,sister,wife,mother, and now grandma.. I love my life.

I am a very true believer of: Giving is better than receiving, and to treat others how you want to be treated. I love "passing it on." If someone does good to me I try to do better for the next person.

Trust me I am a little crazy, everyone is. I have always wanted to write a book. Maybe that will be what comes true in front of your eyes.. I am a retired police officer that is a jack of all trades. I am attending Ashford University, selling Mia Bella Products (Wonderful Job), substitute teacher, oh and I have a new and used products store called "This n That." Other than that I really don't do a whole lot. I feel I have enough free time to spend a little time telling everyone a story about this, "One Crazy MOM"

I feel people are becoming desperate to be the perfect person. I am just glad people find me crazy. I do crazy things because I want everyone to know it is ok to be a little crazy or eccentric, or any other word you want to call it. Just be truthful to yourself and others. Life is not always about what you can do for yourself. Just remember there should be NO number in the people you hurt column, hurting someone no matter how little is never ok. Think about putting yourself in the shoes they walk in. Maybe that is why you do not sleep at night or can not eat, does the stomach hurt or your back, a little headache that will not go away. Maybe it is the last person you lied to or hurt to make things go your way. If you can not keep good numbers and think it does not matter. Just remember someday you will have to answer to God for the things you do on this earth. How many questions will God have for you?

Well tomarrow I will be going on my little soap box again. So stay tuned for the good things in life Oh by the way I will give away things through out so let me know what kind of things you need. Notice I did not say want. What do you really NEED...
