LONG TIME RUNNING

I HAVE NOTICED I'VE NOT UPDATED MY BLOG IN ALMOST 2 YRS! HOW TIME FLY'S.
MY LIFE HAS BEEN FULL OF UPS AND DOWNS. TEARS OF JOY AND SADNESS, AND LOTS OF MIXED THOUGHTS.
I LOST MY WONDERFUL GRANDPA WOODROME ON THE 30TH OF MARCH 2012, HE WILL BE MISSED.HE WAS A GREAT LOVING MAN, DEAR TO MY HEART.
I LOST MY JOB BACK IN FEB. THAT I HAD FOR 9 YRS. I STILL HAVE MY HOUSE. I HAVE MY FRIENDS THAT I'M GREAT FULL FOR AND MY LOVING FAMILY. TOO.
O YEAH CANT FORGET THIS... MY FIRST NIECE HAS CAME KELSEY MARIE BALLARD, APRIL 22,2012!!! SHE'S WONDERFUL
I HAVE ALSO LOST A LOT OF WEIGHT! SO FAR WEIGHT NOT SURE BUT ITS 4 SIZES SMALLER THEN I WAS IN OCT OF 2011! I HAVE CUT OUT SUGAR, I ONLY DRINK WATER OR JUICE, I WALK NIGHTLY IF I CAN. 6 TO 8 MILES A NIGHT OR THREE HOURS...I HAVE FRIENDS THAT HAVE TOLD ME BOTH IN PERSON AND E-MAIL THAT THEY JUST CAN'T KEEP UP WITH ME AND MY MILES... BUT THEY ARE ALL PROUD HOW I'M DOING AND KEEPING IT UP. THANKS FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT! I FIND ITS VERY STRESS RELIEFING AND I GET ANSWERS TO MY PRAYERS AT TIMES TOO. SOME DAYS I JUST FEEL LIKE CRYING AND GIVING UP... OTHER DAYS I GET MAD AND KEEP GOING.
I LOVE CHURCH, I'M BACK INVOLVED WITH THE YOUTH AND MOSTLY THE YOUNG WOMEN IN MY WARD, THEY ARE BIG STRENGTH TO ME. I HAVE LEARNED LOTS OF THEM. I AM GETTING MORE CONFIDENT AT MY TEACHING EVERY SEVERAL WEEKS TO. THE GIRLS PLUS MORE ENJOY MY LESSONS ( I THINK CAUSE I BRING TREATS) ON MOST MY CLASS GROWS BIGGER WHEN PEOPLE FIND OUT I'M TEACHING. BUT ITS ALL GOOD... I'M A BOYSCOUT.. BE PREPARED!! I AM PREPARED!! IF I COULD PASS ON ANYTHING I LEARNED AS I WAS A YOUNG WOMEN YEARS AGO... I WANT BE THAT TEACHER I HAD. THE ONES I LEARNED FROM. THAT I ALWAYS HOLD DEAR TO MY HEART. I WANT MY GIRLS LOOK AT ME THAT SAME WAY... REMEMBER ME FOR WHAT I HAVE TAUGHT THEM, SHOW THEM THE LOVE THAT MY LEADERS GAVE ME.
I LOVE MY BISHOP AND HIS COUNCLERS AND MY HOME TEACHERS, AND VISITING TEACHERS, MY WARD MEMBERS AND MY VISITING TEACHING COMPANION AND THE OTHER YOUNG WOMEN LEADERS THAT BEEN BY MY SIDE FOR LAST TWO YEARS.
I'M NOT SAYING I'M PERFECT, I'VE HAD MANY TRIALS AND BLESSINGS THREW LAST 2 YRS THANKS TO A HOME TEACHER THAT HAS HELPED ME GROW AND LEARN HOW ASK FOR THAT HELP WHEN I'M IN NEED. AND THE BISHOPRIC ALSO HAS BEEN THERE HELP ME OUT, LIFT MY SPIRITS WHEN I NEED. I THANK THEE LORD FOR ALL YOU ON A DAILY BASES... I HAVE ALSO JOINED A SINGLES GROUP ON MONDAYS AND OTHER DAYS AS I FEEL FIT. BETWEEN FIRESIDES, BYD (YOUTH), SINGLES FHE, MUTUAL AND ANYTHING ELSE I'M TRYING KEEP BUSY, LOOK FOR A JOB, AND TRY MAKE EVERYONE HAPPY. I TRY AT TIMES JUST PUT SMILE ON MY FACE JUST MAKE IT THREW THE DAYS.... LIKE LORD SAYS.. IT NOT EASY BUT WILL BE WORTH IT...

MY FAMILY & FRIENDS I LOVE THEE AND I'M GLAD HAVE YOU IN MY LIFE...

My 30th Birthday Vacation.


Well for those that don't have facebook to see what i've been up to.. here it goes....


I left to Georgia on the 29th of Aug., Meet up with Cheri our friend that now lives in georgia with her hunnies family and there baby Connor. (ben is off in another state for work), I rented a car thinking i was going get a chevy aveo (small car) but got newer Cobalt Lt instead (so much nicer then mine). On the 30th of Aug. we drove from Buford Ga to DisneyWorld in Orlando Fl (7 1/2 hour trip). Were i had us a room saved at the AllStar Sports Resort right inside DisneyWorld (thanks to old coworker of mine Carlos- he helped me out picking a place cause thats where he works now with his g/f) We ended up getting rained on most way there, which after the rain made it soo nice. We hit 3 of the 4 main parks. Kimi which is carlos' girlfriend called soon as we got checked in to let us know that she reserved us lunch reservations with "WINNIE THE POOH AND FRIENDS" on the next day. I gotta see and hug WTP and EEYORE!!!! also pigglet and tigger was there. It was GREAT!!!! Thanks Kim. It was Fun and enjoyable good food too, after we ate we went and walked around Magic Kingdom park. Went on rides, saw a parade, and got auto graphs from other disney characters. I bought a book I filled all but one page. Nope no Mickey Mouse. :-( We skipped some charactor signing cause lines to long. or i would have got another book.. it filled up quicker. We next day had lunch with the Disney Princess it was the funnest part of the whole trip i think was the character meals. We got pictures with them all. Connor even got a big kiss from Sleeping Beauty. Later that night we meet up with Carlos and Kimi @ this german restraunt in Disney Epcot good food and fun. We all had great Fun. Hanging out with old and new friends. Next day (sept 3rd) we headed back to Ga. and arrived. I got my hotel room i reserved here. Not best but it will do. its only minutes away from Cheri's house which makes it nice. For my birthday I bought tickets to the Braves Game. (Big Braves Fan inside a Diamondback Shell) Good seats great game even if we did loose 3-1 wins some lose some part of the game. After the game they had fireworks show. For my birthday Cheri's family got me a bouqet of flowers. Sweet of them and made me a birthday cake. We Celebrated my birthday next day, Its been long birthday. Last couple days i've been just hanging out and enjoying my self. its soo green here, compared back to home. Yes i have done little bit of shopping when i was both DisneyWorld and Ga. and taking lots of pictures. (which is not like me)

Its been great so far.. i come home on the 12th of Sept. ( Sorry pictures being posted more when i get home)
if you know someone with face book maybe u can see more... i just dont have time or space to post them now..
