Gotta go, gotta go!


So long, farewell, Auf wiedersehen, good night,

I hate to go and leave this pretty sight.

So long, farewell, Auf wiedersehen, adieu, Adieu, adieu,

To yieu and yieu and yieu.

Being a Grandma, I can do anything...



PSALM 127: 3 Children are God's heritage.

Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.

Thank you God for letting me be a Grandma!

I'm thanking You... because you haven't given up on a wretch like me...


DEAR GOD:

I want to thank You for what you have already done.
I am not going to wait until I see results or receive rewards; I am thanking you right now.
I am not going to wait until I feel better or things look better; I am thanking you right now.
I am not going to wait until people say they are sorry or until they stop talking about me; I am thanking you right now.
I am not going to wait until the pain in my body disappears; I am thanking you right now.
I am not going to wait until my financial situation improves; I am going to thank you right now.
I am not going to wait until the children are asleep and the house is quiet; I am going to thank you right now.
I am not going to wait until I get promoted at work or until I get the job; I am going to thank you right now.
I am not going to wait until I understand every experience in my life that has caused me pain or grief; I am thanking you right now.
I am not going to wait until the journey gets easier or the challenges are removed; I am thanking you right now.
I am thanking you because I am alive.
I am thanking you because I made it through the day's difficulties.
I am thanking you because I have walked around the obstacles.
I am thanking you because I have the ability and the opportunity to do more and do better.
I'm thanking you because FATHER, YOU haven't given up on me.

God is just so good, and he's good all the time.

Get a job by learning wetback English...

I wish I had taken this language course instead of Spanish... I may have found a better job...

No, seriously... I do have something to say about when I appled for a job while working for Los Angeles County Public Library System ... While in Library School, I specialized in Audio-Visual, hoping to be an A-V Librarian... After receiving my Master of Science in Library Science (MSLS) from the University of Southern California, I applied for an A-V Librarian position with LA County. I interviewed but was not selected for the position... now, here is the kicker... Because I had worked in the A-V department for over 5 years... I was asked to train the new AV Librarian... I refused and asked to be transferred to another Library within the County System. It was not long after that I was selected by the Army Library Program, and I began my professional career as the Reference Librarian at Leighton Barracks for the Wuerzburg Military Community... I have been an Army Librarian for over 32 years... and I love it. My husband has always said..."Your job is like a paid hobby."... MMM

Don't let the devil leave his bags...

You got out of a bad relationship because it was bad,
but you are still resentful and angry,
You let the devil leave his bags

You got out of financial debt, but you still can't
control the desire to spend on frivolous things.
You let the devil leave his bags

You got out of a bad habit or addiction, but you still
long to try it just one more time
You let the devil leave his bags

You said, I forgive you, but you can't seem to forget
and have peace with that person
You let the devil leave his bags

You told your unequally yoked mate that it was over,
but you still continue to call.
You let the devil leave his bags

You got out of that horribly oppressive job, but you are
still trying to sabotage the company after you've left
You let the devil leave his bags

You cut off the affair with that married man/woman, but
you still lust after him/her.
You let the devil leave his bags

You broke off your relationship with that hurtful,
abusive person, but you are suspicious and distrusting of every
new person you meet.
You let the devil leave his bags

You decided to let go of the past hurts from growing up
in an unstable environment, yet you believe you are unworthy
of love from others and you refuse to get attached to anyone
You let the devil leave his bags

When you put the devil out, please make sure he takes his bags!

Get thee behind me, devil
