walking around without a sound..

Oh how i love summer time.. I have huge plans for this summer! Yesterday i made a huge purchase, and bought a camper.. Well we had a camper and it was nice, i loved it... however we sold it.. it was a sad day.. Now i bought a 28 foot tandem axle keystone. it is huge. has a slide out and all that stuff.. kinda reminds me of a mobile home. So anyways next weekend im taking it on the adventure to the lake.. Gunnersville to be exact. I fell in love with that lake. My girlfriend's family has a huge 5th wheel that they stay in as well as a huge boat.. Im looking forward to it.. Speaking of looking forward to things.... Our family are getting more foster childeren.. As you know, we had Nick and Raylen for 4 years, and then we are getting these kids, ages 2 and 7.. Believe it or not, im wicked excited.. It warms my heart to see children come into our home and get the proper care that they need and deserve. They are comming in two days, so this weekend we are getting ready for them as well as the mini-moblie home. More to come when i have more time.. my neglection for blogspot has overwhelmed me!

how about an update..

What a week.. nuff said! what a week.. Oh the stress was killing me, thank God it's the weekend. This past week i have been in a state of thinking... where is God placing me this very second in my life?? Like i always say, God is working in my life using me as clay molding me into the man that he wants me to be. It's hard to see what the outcome is.. im quit aware of that.. BUT prayer works! I have prayed and prayed that things will work out according to his will. When you know what he wants you to do, it hits you like a ton of bricks! i know this for a fact! I found myself praying what i thought was best..... turns out he had a far more bigger plan than i realized. I know what i want, BUT is that what God wants for me? Turns out that i took time to realize, and BAM i got what ive been praying for.. it's like when you know something is right... well you know it. I guess this only makes sence to me, but thats ok ha. I had thoughts about getting in the same routine, and going into the same motions not knowing if i would be happy in the end.. So i took a chance and saw that everything was worth it..
Anyways tonight was a great night. went to the barons game with the family. it was red diamond night and we got in for free, free hats, food, all that good stuff.. not to mention dad won $50.. ahh so proud, so proud. top it off with some fireworks in the end. which made for a great night. What i know is that God listens and is far more bigger than me and my plans! till then H.I.B

Time to start saving money.

Last week i had a heart to heart with my truck "Rufus". I was kindly discussing with him, how tired I am with the amount of fuel he consumes. Needless to say Rufus was not listening, nor will he ever. That 5.3 liter V-8 drinks the dang gas like its going out of style. So I thought about the smart thing to do; and the outcome was to buy a small little honda that "sips" the gas. Well, i did! One of my good friend's had a 1991 Honda CRX.... YES i said CRX... very similar to the one i had back in high school. This car is not much to look at, BUT give me a little time and it will be a good looking piece of equiptment. ha, i cant wait. I was leaving his house and it was dead on empty, so i put $15.00 in the tank, which made the needle go up to a half of a tank.. Ahhh alas a sigh of relief! So im going to comute back and forth to work and school in this lil baby. I should save some money while doing it.. Poor poor rufus has to sit at home.. oh well its going to be fine. There are many plans for this car in the forcast, so in due time it will be nice. Things are going good here on my end. I have been wicked busy with work, and enjoying my time off from school. Speaking of school. I was going to take some summer classes but i had some over due books, which led to a hold on my finial grades. I missed my summer classes.. dang.. oh well ha. I worked hard and passes my classes with a 3.2 GPA. So with that said, work has taken all of my time... it's insane. I come home from work and just wanna lay around becuase that heat takes so much out of me.. sad i know. But anyways, if you see me in a busted up CRX do not laugh, just think to your self ahh JE is saving some cheddar!. Weekend here we are, i need a break! H.I.B
