Come on home

Itys time to come on home. I think that when you have been gone for so long that you know when enough is enough,  Come to your senses

Come back home.

OK

 

 

You will and have done a lot of traveling. Try to remember that the weather is not the best so you may have some delays. Try to pace yourself and not get too angry with the wait times. Know that there will be delays. You know you are not the most patient of people. Ask God what you need to know in this situation. Who can you help, what can you do to make the time more pleasant, remember you arent the only one having a bad day while traveling. I am praying that you have a very uneventful flight and that you are where you need to be on time and that you are able to arrive home on time. I dont want any mishaps.

Sometimes you get a very unpleasant surprise and you have to hande it with tact.

Thank You God

Thank You God for the gifts of people and resources that you have put in my life to help me strengthen my faith.

Thank you for allowing me to be restless with the things that I say that are wrong. I had just a lot of unrest with the whole "poor white trash" thing. I don't think I quite knew how it was hurtful. I think like Barack, who said poor people hold on to the things that make them comfortable, guns and religion, I have stereotyped people. I want to clear that up now. I feel people have been labeled for too long. This election is all about labels. ?The first woman, the first black. We have got to see people as they are, human beings that need love and comfort. We have to recognize the violence in our streets is reflective of the constant divisiveness that we are taught to embrace. Help Lord. Help us to use our skills to recognize when we are dividing ourselves and give us the focus of coming together. We have a lot of poor and we cannot isolate them. I know poor, I am one. I can feel our pain. We don't need false prophets giving false hope. The thought of what is happening in this election is one of false hope. One candidate offers hope, another feeds on peoples weaknesses.

Jeremiah 28- Two prophets, one false, one real. One true message for the people, whether good or bad, God is supreme.

Thank you God for allowing me to wrestle with this.

Hello

Well I got my ellipitical machine together now and I used it today for the first time. It was a birthday present and I am so glad I have finally gotten it put together. Now I just have to use it everyday. Weight Watchers continues to inspire and encourage me.

The presidential race has taken an interesting turn. Hill and Bill have taken the obvious route to the white house.  Let's appeal to the poor white trash. Let's put up our banner of whiteness and run with this trailer park, beer swilling, wrestling, and country music mentality. That's all we need to win the white house. It is such a manipulation. I would hope that the blacks who thought that Bill was their man and all for the black people are able to see his true colors. That does reflect back to Hill.

Barack has his problems. The pastor story needs to end. Enough has been said on that note. He doesnt need to bring that up again. He has got to win again to stay successful. No matter what he is the first true contender of color for the white house.

We may get air conditioning in our building at school. That will be so good if it comes true. We start back August 4th so you know it will still be hot and we will have many hot days to go. I might get a lab too. We'll just wait until that happens.

Well its time to say goodnight. Be blessed and be a blessing to someone special.

Thank you Lord for all that you have done for me. I LOVE YOU LORD.

My day was good, I saw Mack and he did a wonderful job of the poetry reading. We were so pleased with the whole event. We had three poets scheduled, only two showed up and we were lucky that Mack was one of them. He was the best thing we had going today. I took pictures and was so proud and pleased to see him.

 

Hi

I heard you tonight when I was on my way home from class. I usually put in a cd or listen to V103. Today I listened to V103. I think you are doing what is truly necessary to help our children. Continue to increase awareness by calling on the people concerned to take responsibility for their actions.

Students have to realize that reading at two and three grade levels below their expected reading level is not good. Processing skills are lacking and the behavior really becomes that of a third grader. I pray that we can stop this wild west behavior. How did they tame the wild west? Why are we sacrificing our children to the point that we as adults have just said there is nothing we can do. I don't believe that. We have to wake up and take back our children. They are worth it and they need to know that we believe they are worth it. They have to believe they are worth it. Improve the reading levels and improve the math levels. When you have eighth graders that are reading at an average of a fifth grade level that's not good. Math skills are between a third through fifth grade level that is not good. They need to know they cant function in life like that and the parents need to suck up their pride and admit to their child that their reading and math isn't much better. This is unacceptable. We gloss over the reading and math levels and think that they can process adult problems and handle the higher order thinking skills that are required to function. "They Can't"

I'm saying good night ant thank you. I am really a very lucky woman. I wondered what he wrote on that paper to have you look at me like that but then I realized that what ever it was it made you wonder. , did she really, did you really say that, I pray that it was something good. Something that you really wanted and that it was not something too absurd,. Well good night and be blessed, I am thinking of you and know that you are wonderful.

You will be very pleased to know that I have my first therapy appointment on May 1st at 4:30. I excited about this. I believe its a step forward.
