One Flaw In Women

One Flaw In Women

By the time the Lord made woman, He was into his sixth day of working overtime. An angel appeared and said, 'Why are you spending so much time on this one?' And the Lord answered, 'Have you seen my spec sheet on her? She has to be completely washable, but not plastic, have over 200 movable parts, all replaceable and able to run on diet coke and leftovers, have a lap that can hold four children atone time, have a kiss that can cure anything from scraped knee to a broken heart -and she will do everything with only two hands.' The angel was astounded at the requirements.'Only two hands!? No way! And that's just on the standard model? That's too much work for one day. Wait until tomorrow to finish.' 'But I won't,' the Lord protested. 'I am so close to finishing this creation that is so close to my own heart. She already heals herself when she is sick AND can work 18 hour days.' The angel moved closer and touched the woman. 'But you have made her so soft, Lord.' 'She is soft,' the Lord agreed, 'but I have also made her tough. You have no idea what she can endure or accomplish.' 'Will she be able to think?', asked the angel. The Lord replied, 'Not only will she be able to think, she will be able to reason and negotiate.' The angel then noticed something, and reaching out, touched the woman's cheek.'Oops, it looks like you have a leak in this model. I told you that you were trying to put too much into this one.' 'That's not a leak,' the Lord corrected, 'that's a tear!' 'What's the tear for?' the angel asked. The Lord said, 'The tear is her way of expressing her joy, her sorrow, her pain, her disappointment,her love, her loneliness, her grief and her pride.' The angel was impressed. 'You are a genius, Lord. You thought of everything! Woman is truly amazing.' And she is! Women have strengths that amaze men. They bear hardships and they carry burdens, but they hold happiness, love and joy. They smile when they want to scream. They sing when they want to cry. They cry when they are happy and laugh when they are nervous. They fight for what they believe in. They stand up to injustice. They don't take 'no' for an answer when they believe there is a better solution. They go without so their family can have. They go to the doctor with a frightened friend. They love unconditionally. They cry when their children excel and cheer when their friends get awards. They are happy when they hear about a birth or a wedding. Their hearts break when a friend dies. They grieve at the loss of a family member, yet they are strong when they think there is no strength left. They know that a hug and a kiss can heal a broken heart. Women come in all shapes, sizes and colors. They'll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you to show how much they care about you. The heart of a woman is what makes the world keep turning. They bring joy, hope and love. They have compassion and ideals. They give moral support to their family and friends. Women have vital things to say and everything to give. HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE FLAW IN WOMEN, IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.

Why is Life so Busy??

Why is life so busy?? I don't remember being this busy when I was growing up....I mean my parents were always home. My mom never had to have a job. My dad's job allowed him to be home by 4pm every evening. It was great....bible time around the dining room table at 8pm every night. You know....a great amount of family time with your parents and your siblings. I'm very fortunate to have grown up with great christian parents that led me to the Lord at an early age. I'm trying my best to do that as well. I guess I get a little discouraged when those times seem to be few and far between, due to the business of life. A life where both parents have to work just to make ends meet, and even then it's hard to keep food on the table. God never promised our life to be an easy one. For that I am grateful, because it forces me to be dependent on God for EVERYTHING !! Even producing the time that you get to spend with your family. I'm finding out as our kids get older (3 are teenagers) that they all start going their seperate ways with their friends. Making those special family times even more few and far between. I have found myself praying for that Godly hedge of protection around our family more now than ever before. I was once told that Satan keeps you busy so that you have less time with God. I hate that part of life. But, I also look at it as a time to plant my feet firm on the foundation of Jesus Christ and press on towards that mark that He has set before me. So I find myself sitting here, thanking God for the times that I do have with my family and friends. You know, the times when your children wrap their arms around you and say "I love you Mom." The times when Doug wraps his arms around me and tells me "I love you Babe" Those times my friends call or email and tell me "Hey I was just thinking about you and miss you." Those times are so precious to me. Those are the little gifts from God I love so much !!!

Teddy Bear Run Part 2



Here's what I'm talking about......All these bikes and the ones around the corner. They circled all the way around the building. What a fantastic sound when they are all running at the same time !!



Then of course you need someone crazy enough to be a cheerleader to get them all pumped up and ready to go ....... REALLY LOUD !!! Me and Beth opted for that job. One of the HOG members lent me a scarf to swing around to help out. What a fun time. Wish you all could have been there with me !!!

Teddy Bear Run

Ok so....I don't usually have to work on Sundays, but today was an exception. All I have to say about today is WOW... If you have never heard or seen 500+ Harley Davidson motorcycles (there were other makes as well not only Harleys) all in one gathering, it's something to behold !!! Especially when they start them all up at the same time
WOOOOOOHOOOOOOO !!!!!!
IT'S TOTALLY AWESOME !!!!!!
So, it's definitely something all my fellow Harley enthusiaists have to see and experience.....if you haven't already.
More to come later........
