Don't know what to think

Ok so I finally heard from my boyfriend yesterday.... He says that the reason he hasn't called me is because he got a new cell phone and gave his old one to a friend and forgot to put the numbers in his new phone... That I believe because I know how he is.... The only thing that confuses me is what he's doing when he's gone for days and days. I am really starting to fall for him and it scares me a lot. I haven't felt this way about anyone in such a long time. The last time I felt this way was with my jr high sweet heart and that was years ago and this feeling is much more intense. I'm affraid that my jealousy could hurt us in the end, but at the same time he is jealous when it comes to me too. Like my girl Mollie when she comes around.. (This is gonna sound weird.) She always hugs me and grabs my butt... We laugh about it, because I have a bigger butt then she does and she always says she wants it, so she tells everyone that it's hers. When she told my boyfriend that he said nope that's mine.. Mollie's boyfriend does the same thing but he doesn't grab or anything like that. I think he got a little jealous of him too. He just kept on holding me close to him like he wanted to prove to everyone that I am his girl and no one Else's.. Which doesn't bother me any because he is my guy and no one Else's.. The world already knows that... When he kisses me, he takes my breath away. I feel like if he wasn't holding me when he kissed me that I would fall to the ground... I love looking into his eyes, because of the look that I get back from him.... Anyways enough about that. My brother's ex just called and she is pregnant and she had some test done the other day and the doctor just called and said that they are pretty sure that the baby has down syndrome. She has to take more test to be sure though. This sucks, and it's really sad.....
love and peace...

Having some fun

Yesterday I went over to my best-friends house where I was staying and packed all of my things to move back home with mom for a while. After I moved everything into my room, my mom and I went out mushroom hunting... No luck :( ... Then after that a friend of mine came down with two of his 4-wheelers.. Sam, my brother, and I went riding and went through every single mud hole that we could find. Oh yeah we were muddy and when we got back I jumped right into the shower. We will probably do the same thing again today. I don't remember the last time that I had fun like that. My mom took some pics of us and I am going to post them on my myspace page. I've been posting a lot of pics on there lately, the only thing that I was worried about was my boyfriend possibly getting mad about Sam being around me, but I have come to the conclusion that I really don't care what he wants or thinks because I haven't seen or heard anything from him in about a week and a half. So in my opinion he really doesn't care and if he says anything about it I'm just gonna tell him if you cared so much then why haven't you been calling me or anything and that it's his loss. If he really wants me he will have to prove himself cause I am done with all of the games that people play when they are in relationships. How are you gonna tell someone that your together and then just take off without a word for this long.... That's bs.... In my opinion I am done and he can go and find someone else.... hahahaha that's funny cause no one else will treat him as good as I did..........

Vacation

Mom is wanting to go to Texas on July 2. My maw maw and paw paw are having their 50Th anniversary this July and we all want to be there. mom is trying to get a lot of pictures of maw maw and paw paw and put them all together and show them at the party. I am looking through all of mine to give her the ones that I have. We are thinking about taking pictures of hands from our generations. there are my daughters ( Abby and Aubrey), me, my mom (Kathy), my maw maw (Mae), and my grandma (Gladys). That's five generations and my mom wants to see the age through the hands. Then you have my girls, me, my mom, my paw paw (Frankie), and my me maw (Loneita) . I just hope that I have some good pictures of them. When I was at mom's house last night I saw some of the pictures that mom had of maw maw, paw paw, mom, my uncle Jerry and uncle Mike. I thought that I would love to have those pictures and carry them on. Then I get sad thinking that my girls might not feel that way about maw maw and paw paw because they don't see them like I did. I grew up going to maw maw and paw paw's every weekend to see all my cousins and on holidays always with them. My girls don't get to see them that much. We have seen them once a year since Abby was born and that kills me because I want my girls to know the love that I know. Not the money..... I can't wait to go back and see everyone. I love my girls and I love my family.....

Happy Easter

Oh my gosh... I am so tired after Easter egg hunting with the girls. We had Easter hunting on Saturday with my best friend Jenah, Jenah's daughter (Lexie), Jenah's mother (Rena), Jenah's sister (Corey), and Corey's son Isaiah. We ate a big lunch. Ham, deviled eggs, pickled eggs, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green beans, and rolls. It was really good. Then the girls went to maw maw and paw paws. It was daddy's day to have them. I stayed at mom's house that night. drank a Bloody Mary, ate a big dinner and then went to bed. Got up Today and came to my brother's house in Walton. The girls came over and my brother's in-laws came over to hunt with my nephews and the girls. So there was Abby, Aubrey, Hayden, Cameron, Cory,and Carlie. They ran all over the yard looking for eggs. When they were done they all left. Abby and Aubrey went back to maw maw and pawpaw's and went Easter egg hunting again. Hayden and Cameron went with maw maw, paw paw, bubby, Cassie, Cory, and Carlie. They went to Kayla's and Easter egg hunted again. Then they came back home and played out in the yard and even went for a walk to run all the energy out. Now they are in the bath and getting ready for bed. I am so exhausted. I have had so much fun and would do it every single year that they will let me do it.

Blah Blah Blah

I am to the point in my life where everything and everyone around me is spinning and I am standing still and screaming at the top of my lungs but no one hears me and no one stops. I am 25 years old with two daughters who I love with all of my heart and would do anything for them. I want them to have all of the best things in life and everything that they dream of I want for them. The are so smart even at the age of 3 and 5 I think they no more than they should when it comes to doing things ahead of time. I guess that I got lucky with my second daughter because she was no problem to potty train she pretty much did that all by herself. My oldest will be in school this year and I am hoping that she will love it and do good. As for me this year I am done looking for the right guy. I found one but it was at the wrong time and now I'm just sticking with me and my girls. I am about to open up my very own store and I can't wait to see how it will do and if it does good in a little town where I'm starting then I might just take it into the city. I have had to depend on so many people for so long and am finally getting out on my own with no man to support me and not going to my mother to ask for help and I am so excited to be starting my life all over again because there are so many things that I can finally do now to better myself and not have to worry about anyone telling me that they don't want me to go to school or wherever it might be. I am just ready to do what I have to do to better myself and my family and I have no doubts what so ever in my abilities to do that. If I do happen to come across that one guy then that would be fine with me but as far as looking for someone to date and just dating the next guy that comes around this one is gonna have to do a lot of work and a lot of proving themselves worthy of being with. There is only one thing that I am really worried about and right now I want to find out what is going to happen if it happens and see where it goes from here.. Then maybe I can finally be happy once and for all but until then all I'll be doing is worry worry worry... About my family and me........... Peace and love to all

Taxpayers may have to cover octuplet mom's costs

Los Angeles- A big share of financial burden of raising Nadya Suleman's 14 children could fall on the shoulders of California's taxpayers, compounding the public furor in a state already billions of dollars in the red.
Even before the 33-year-old single, unemployed mother gave birth to octuplets last month, she had been caring for her six other children with the help of $490 a month in food stamps, plus Social Security disability payments for three of the youngsters. The public aid will almost certainly be increased with the new additions to her family.
Also the hospital where the octuplets are expected to spend seven to 12 weeks has requested reimbursement from Medi-Cal, the state's medicaid program, for care of the premature babies, according to the Los Angeles Times the cost has not been disclosed. Word of the public assistance has stoked the furor over Suleman's decision to have so many children by having embryos implanted in her womb.
"It appears that, in the case of the Suleman family, raising 14 children takes not simply a village but the combined resources of the county, state and federal governments, "Los Angeles Times columnist Tim Rutten wrote on Wednesday's paper. He called Suleman's story "grotesque".
On the internet, bloggers rained insults on Suleman, calling her an "idiot," criticizing her decision to have more children when she couldn't afford the one's she had and suggesting she be sterilized.
"It's my opinion that woman's right to reproduce should be limited to a number which the parents can pay for," Charles Murray wrote in a letter to the Los Angeles Daily News. " Why should my wife and I, as taxpayers, pay for child support for 14 Suleman Kids?"
She was berated on talk radio, where listeners accused her of manipulating the system and being an irresponsible mother.
In California, a low-income family can receive Social Security payments of up to $793 a month for each disabled child. Three children would amount to $2,379.
The Suleman octuplets' medical costs have not been disclosed, but in 2006, the average costs for a premature baby's hospital stay in California was $164,273, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Eight times that equals $1.3 million.
For a single mother the costs of raising 14 children through age 17 ranges from $1.3 million to $2.7 million, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
My opinion on this situation is this, I am a single mother or two and yes I get food stamps and all of that, but I would never intentionally have more children when I knew that I could barely take care of the ones I have, or without a partner. Which brings me to a question. If sh couldn't take care of the children she already had, how in the hell did she have the money to get embryos implanted?, And why should the rest of us who have a hard enough time just getting our families by year after year, have to pay for her stupidity and selfishness? This woman is crazy and so is anyone else who thinks that I am going to take away from my family to give to her!!! She needs to get some Jobs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Bloody Valentine

I watched My Bloody Valentine in 3d last night. I was jumping out of my seat and I was even catching myself closing my eyes at certain times. I know that all of the people that were around me were jumping too. The movie was actually very hard to get in to see cause all of them were sold out and I had to buy my ticket ahead of time so that I could watch the last show. It is a scary movie that has non stop action. I loved being on the edge of my seat the whole time and never knowing when something was gonna happen until it popped out right in frount of my face. I know that anyone who watched this movie is probably thinking that it is gonna be like another Michael or Jason. That's what I think anyways. I think that there will be more of these movies. I want everyone who hasn't watched it, to go and watch it. It is well worth any amount of money that you will pay. Do not wait until it comes out on dvd cause you will miss a lot of things from the 3d. Everything was coming at you. At one time there was a arm laying oer the side of the chair and I could have sworn that the blood was dripping on a mans head that was sitting infrount of me. That was pretty cool and sick. haha. Anyways go watch this movie it's awsome.

Ice Storm wreaks havoc on Plains to east

Little Rock, AK- Schools closed and thousands of homes and buisnesses without electricity Tuesday as storm spread a coating of ice and snow on roads and power lines from the southern Plains to the mid-Atlantic states.
At least seven deaths have been blaimed on the weather. Highway crews were out spreading salt and sand on te acumlating ie, and police reported hundreds of accidents.
Ice had built up as much as an inch thick around Mountain Home Ark., and the utility Entergy Arkansas said about 5,800 customers were blacked out as the eight of the ice brought down power lines.
Missouri's Ameren UE reported about 6,000 customers without service.
Thousands more had no electricity in Kentucky as ice up to 1.5 inches thick snapped tree limbs and power lines, and caused short circuits that made transformers blow out.
The National Weather Service posted ice storm and winter storm warnings Tuesday along a broad swath from Texas and Oklahoma through the Mississippi and Ohio valleys to New Jersey, Maryland and Virginia.

cold wave hits northeast

The biting winds and subzero temperatures that have turned the Northern plains, Midwest, and Great Lakes into a teeth-chattering misery, has hit north easterners. Maine residents were ready for Thursday reading down to 40 blow zero. And in the Midwest, Iowans were told that temperatures could drop as low as 27 below zero, matching a Jan. 15 record set in 1972. The deep freeze was part of a snow and arctic system that stretched from Montana to northern New England and dipped as far south as North Carolina.

Lake-effect snow warnings issued Thursday for Indiana, Michigan, New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Wind chill warnings were issued for those states as well as Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Missouri, and the Dakotas, Wisconsin, and Minneapolis.

Michigan, the community of Pellston, in the northern Lower Peninsula, and big rapids, in the central Lower Peninsula, were Michigan's cold spots at 6 a.m. Thursday with temperatures of minus 21 degrees. Glenwood, Minn, air temperatures were 29 degrees below zero on Thursday morning with the wind chill making it a staggering 54 degrees below zero. It was 20 degrees below zero at the Minneapolis St. Paul International airport, but the wind chill made it feel like 37 below zero.

Southwest Ohio, Butler County reopened it's former jail as an emergency shelter, with room for about 40 people to have a blanket, meal and shower, said nick Fischer of the sheriffs office. Fischer said the county will make room for more if needed.

Around Ohio, blowing snow grounded at least two medical helicopters called to transport accident victims. At the site of a wreck on Interstate 79 near Bowling Green, an ambulance had to drive two people to hospitals in Toledo. While "It's a dry heat in Arizona, This is a fresh cold." Light snow feel overnight in New York, temperatures early Thursday morning ranged from 7 above in Buffalo to 21 below in Massena in northern new York, lows of 18 below to 26 below are forecast for the Adirondacks Thursday night and Friday.

The frigid conditions caused complications for highway managers because road salt doesn't melt ice in subzero temperatures.

"Once we get into minus 10, minus 20, in some cases we have to go to just straight sand, a light dusting of sand, on the highway to get grit and provide traction." Said Mike Flick a transportation worker in Pamelia, N.Y.

Even northern Georgia and Kentucky could see single-digit lows by Friday, with zero possible at Lexington, K.Y., the weather service warned. Kentucky hasn't been that cold since December, 2004.

Obama seeks half of bailout funds

Obama seeks access to the second half of the $700 billion financial bailout fund.

He plans to be in the capital on Tuesday to meet with Senate Democrats. His transition team prepared to dispatch top aides to meet with Senate Republicans this week in anticipation of a possible vote Thursday on weather to release the money from the embattled Troubled Asset Relief Program. In the House, the Financial Services Committee scheduled a hearing on the program in advance of the legislation offered by committee Chairman Barney Frank, D-mass, that would place tough new restrictions on recipients of the money and require spending to reduce mortgage foreclosures.

As legislation is scheduled to reach the floor of the House on Wednesday, with a vote set for Thursday. President George W. Bush's decision Monday to act on Obama's behalf and ask congress for access to the remaining $350 billion of the money congress authorized to rescue the nations financial sector. The request reached congress as lawmakers and Obama also were assembling a spending and tax-cutting stimulus package of $800 billion, or possibly more.

Obama said Monday that although the financial system has improved since September, it is still fragile.

Bush's notification set a 15-day deadline for congress to disapprove of the request law makers have complained that the Treasury department's use of the money has been muddled and misleading, that recipients of the funds have faced little accountability and that the program has done nothing to reduce home foreclosures. If the Senate rejects a motion to disapprove the funds, it would pave the way for Obama to begin dispensing the money about a week after he assumes office Jan 20.

Democrats hope that Obama's desire to place greater restrictions on the money and broaden it's goals to loosen more credit will build support among other skeptical lawmakers. The House scheduled a vote for next week. If both chambers refuse to release the money, it would be up to Obama to issue a veto - a dramatic first act by a new president - in hopes that congress would not override him.

The request by the Bush White house made it clear that the money was to be used by the incoming Obama Administration. It directed lawmakers to a letter Monday from top Obama economic adviser Mitch McConnell, R-KY., voiced skepticism but left open the possibility that he could be persuaded. McConnell said, that he would be hard-pressed to support additional funding for the TARP without sufficient assurances, this money will not be wasted, misspent or simply used for more industry-specific bailouts.

Summers' letter was not as detailed as the legislation proposed in the House by Frank. That bill would set new conditions on the institutions that receive the money, requiring limits on executive pay and an end to owing or leasing private jets. It would also require spending at least $40 billion from the fund on foreclosure mitigation.

financial services industry lobbyists said the opposed a provision in Frank's bill that would allow the Treasury Department to apply executive pay restrictions to banks that already have received government money.

Scott Talbott, Senior Vice President at the Financial Services Roundtable, said the group would like to see Congress' concerns addressed without the retroactive provision. The Roundtable represents 100 of the largest banks and insurance companies, including such government fund recipients as Citigroup Inc., Bank of America Corp. and JP Morgan Chase and Co.

Some lobbyists hoped Summers' letter would reassure lawmakers and make legislation such as Frank's less likely to pass. Summers' letter doesn't address the question of retroactive limits on executive pay. At the same time, the Federal Deposit insurance Corp. issued a directive Monday asking banks and other financial institutions to track how the federal money or guarantees the received helped them boost "prudent lending" and efforts to help at-risk borrowers avoid foreclosures.

Unborn

I love scary movies, so when I heard about and saw the previews to the movie Unborn I knew that I just had to watch it. Even though scary movies tend to make me jump and make my skin crawl at times I still love to watch them. The movie Unborn is about a girl that finds out about having a twin brother that died at birth and is now haunting her. After a lot of freaky things start to happen she finds out what exactly it is that is haunting her and what it wants. Now all she has to do is find a way to stop it. I would say to anyone that is a fan of scary movies, this is the one to watch to start off 2009. It is very good. I am looking to watch more movies to write about. If anyone has any good suggestions leave a comment and let me know about some that you have watched or have seen previews of.

Bernice Gallego of Fresno, Cali, age 72 was looking through some old boxes of antiques in her attic when she came across an old baseball card. She thought it may be worth something to someone so she listed it on Ebay. She started the bid at $10 until she started getting questioned by numerous people about it’s authenticity. She imediately cancelled the bidding and questioned herself if what she had was really more valuable than what she thought. Come to find out the card was made in 1869, featuring Red Stocking B.B. Club of Cincinnati, the first professional sports team. The baseball card that Bernice found is considered one of the first baseball cards ever produced and could be worth more than $100,000. After Bernice gained the knowledge she needed about the 140 year old card she put it back on ebay, but with a higher starting bid. I think that this woman is very lucky and if you ask her she will say that she has a history of being lucky, having once won $250,000 on a slot machine…
