How do you feel about your children thinking they are professional UFC fighters or Tapout Champs?   I know many kids play around doing this because they have nothing better to do. How ever how would you handle a situation if this was to happen in your yard. 

You are hanging out with your buddies and two begin to play UFC fight.. But, as it progress they increase their strength until it turns ugly.  Screams and yells being heard and then parents start to come outside to find out what is going on. But instead of stopping the boys the parent of one of the children encourages her son to continue beating on that other child.  Until that boy gets up and takes off running to where....Yes, you guess it right......to your  house.   He is crying, hurt, and since he is your responsiblity  you have to deal with it. 

So, I ask you this.... would you go over to that house because your son is still over there or do you do nothing?  I would like to know because Later in this blog I will explain how  the exile ended......

I just looked at the poll on the front page here @ MyFox.  Personally I like the age of 17.

I have told my boys driving until you are depended on it getting to point A 2 B its a luxury.  You are not ready to be in the working world yet and most companies will not hire a teenage unless they are 17.   At the age of 16 you just want to play around and show off you got your license.  But, how many of those 16 yr old kids have a job...They think its fun and games still they are not ready for responsibility yet.  

My oldest will be 18 yr in April and he still does not have his licenses.  I was 22 years old when I got mine.. Not that we don't know how to drive we both were not ready to get behind that wheel.   All though at the age of 16  I did have a job and I mostly walked..That is where my oldest is lazy..  He will not get a job,but he thinks we have all this money to toss around.  I love how I mention to him about a job he complains no transportation.  Darlin' those 2 hoofs at the bottom  can hustle around town in joyful play  so what's stopping you from walking and getting an application.   

Classic here:   While I am out running errands he will text or call me to pick him up applications while I am out..  WOW, he has a lot of courage to ask me that.  What  is the deal here.  Oh, And I llove the talk about how they will raise their kids totally different.. HA, well, you may in some ways, however, mommy and daddy's stamp  is all ready buried deep with in.  So, for this driving age I say 17 works well for me because I know my kids are not ready.

Ever so often prayers are needed around our world.  We all hear stories about a tragic accident or murder.  I have heard a story that put chills down my spine and a feeling that I can not explain. 

My nephew has this lady friend whose brother could use some prayers flowing.  He is a young man stationed in North Dakota if I can recall.  He is engaged to a lovely lady and they were also bringing in a special bundle into the world.  The other day his fiance took a drive up the mountain to take in the scenery God passionately created and given to us.  On her drive a semi truck nicked the car which caused her to lose control be air lifted until crashing on the mountain side.  The vehicle was tangled badly and the woman was pronounced dead on the scene.  However, the unborn child still had life.  By time they got her out of the car the unborn child soul had departed.  Her vehicle was so mangled it took longer than they hoped.  She was 7 months pregnant and they were getting married next weekend I think. 

I ask you to send some prayers out to this young man  and anyone else in our world that needs love flowing in their direction.  We are our futures hope.

Have you ever entered a room and the energy has given you this feeling you are not welcome there.  Do you think  by a first impression you will be judged?  How do you deal with it?

Even the most bubbly people can be rejected from time to time.  But it doesn't put those people that treat you like that any better than their inspiration figure.  We all hand out advice so freely but how many out there really listen to what you have preach or convinced yourself your words are true?

Its like those living in truth shall cast the first stone.  We all talk the ways we were taught whether from your parents, sister, brother, aunts, uncles, or your school yet  we still tend to be judgmental and cruel to others.

Sometimes making a change begins with you. Sometimes you being the role model rather than someone else may open up some eyes and alert them to change.  Happiness is always around us and in order to let it shine it takes you to do something different.
Whether its complimenting some stranger on their outfit or just asking some one how is life treating you?   You just showing others that our world still has awesome loving and caring people out there. Keep spreading love, and make some one smile today!

Usa Team: Youngs / Branagh
Cuba Team: Crespo /Estevez

First set: USA Ladies 21-19
Second set: Cuba Ladies 21-13
Third set: USA Ladies 15-12

First set was a very close game. Youngs taken look where the blocker is located and pounding that ball down the line for the point. Great team work and chemistry amoung both Branagh and Youngs. Branagh is struggling with her serves she still gives 100% toward the gold.
Crespo being an indoor volleyball player and coming outside to play in the sand was a change for her. But watching her play she can block as well as dig. Another great player and Estevez has some of her own techiniques that brings that team together. These ladies show so much confidence and spirit.
Cuban beat the US earlier in the year and for todays game the Cubans asked the US to if they could wear their blue uniforms. USA ladies was for that because they love their red uniforms. No idea if the colors they wear makes a different but I can see why the USA ladies love their red colors because they are steaming.

No matter who wins Gold, Silver, Bronze, they are all winners for they sportsmanship, respect, etc.. Even watch the game between Russia and Georgia was great. All though their country is under a cease fire that does not mean they have come up with a final agreement. Both of those teams showed the world under so many distress in their world we can still come together and have peace. Game was very competitive all though I ended up falling a sleep so I have no clue who won. Keep the Gold flowing in your hearts.

That was awesome..I love the Olympics!  Great Team Work...That is what makes people succeed  and change when we are all team players. 

So,  I am going to ask you this?  There are many games to be played and everyone has their favorites sports as well as country. 

I must admit I watch every game..My television in on 24/7 from Opening Ceromony up until the Ending Ceromony.  So, for me its hard to decide on the sports because I love sports but as for countries this is who I RAH RAH for :

USA

Poland

China

Russia

Romania

France

Australia

I hope you all are enjoying the games as much as we are in our home.

My kids watch it too..We are Olympics Groupies!

USA /Chi in basketball great sportsmanship between both teams.  It was a close call, but I was really hoping China would have won that game.  I love the spirit these players bring to these games, and knowing what memories as well as new friends home with them.

Saturday evening a few kids in the pool, and I am working on dinner.  My oldest and my second oldest are discussing J Step Gainers..I was hey I can do a gainer...they are like yeah right.. I can I use to be on a diving team...So they proceed with thei discussion and walk outside.

Next thing you hear is you broke your wrist dude...I turned around and sure enough Blake my second oldest wrist is just hanging there..Why do you have to do these things when I am always making dinner and your Aunt isn't working....Why?  So, poor Henry working on midnight shifts this week has to take him in until I finish dinner and work my way up there.  I race my dupa up there and My Honey and Blake are acting stupid.. OMG...but its a father/son bond in those moments.  No wonder I live in a padded room with out the pads....LOL

So, X-ray hauls them down and I all hear about is the Hot Chick taking his picture...way too much male smack going on in this crib.  Some one save me!  When the pediatric doctor comes into the room says, didn't I just fix your toes like 6 months ago?  What did you do this time.. So, while trying to explain it My Honey said just get up and show us.... and Blake not thinking started to get up.  Can't take them anywhere.

It turned out he broke his wrist in the radius bone and its a clean break. They put a splint on him until I go to Children's.  It seems in the past year I have spent most of my time in hospitals, schools, doctors offices, and dentist..Will it ever end? 

If you do not know what a J-Step Gainer is:  Look Inside!

With the pollution problem there and the Olympics are just a short few weeks away.  Now, eager fans await the tickest sale and end up with havoc..If their security can not control their own people how are they going to keep safety amoung the countries.  Plus, Iraq is banned from the Olympics, but isn't there other countries involved in the war?  So, if you will ban one country for honoring Hussan, why not ban all those involved.  But, if they ban them all there will not be an Olympics any longer. 

So, will they be able to handle the millions of people entering their country for the biggest games of history?

With gas prices rising along with groceries its only a matter of time people will have to make a choice on each paycheck what they will need to purchase. You may have to choose from gas or prescriptions, groceries...  How do you plan to overcome this inflation we are going through right now. 

I ask you this because I feel we will adjust to the cost in time and prices will not go down.
