'Fess Up Friday

Photobucket


Hello to all you confessors out there. Yet another week where I lay on you all my random confessions, well, not all but some. There are some that are reserved for the Lord Almighty Himself cause only He can handle them. Anyway, I digress, let's all spill our guts with Mamarazzi on Our Dandelion Wishes


I confess that this past week's cool nights and mornings have made me wish for fall to descend upon us. I want to put out my decorations and not sweat when I leave the house. Someone remind me of this in the winter when I am wishing for summer.

I confess that Jim Cantore is a babe! I never want him to come to my town for weather updates because wherever he is for the weather channel is where the disaster strikes. I will admire him from a far.

I confess that I finished The Help and it was good. It wasn't like the end all, be all of books but it was good. I am going to see the movie this weekend so maybe that will push me over the edge.

I confess that I love living here in the mountains. We rarely have any natural disasters like tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, blizzards, etc. This week as I was shaking from the Great East Coast Earthquake of 2011, I was grateful to not live anywhere where this occurs on a bigger scale.

I confess that I will not be crying when I drop off my 4th child at preschool on Monday. I am thankful that someone else gets to share the joy of his stubbornness and the pleasure of his grudge holding. I mean, it would be selfish of me to deprive people. His sweet smiles and hugs do make up for it, though!

I confess that the Lord has been so good to us this week. I can't even put into words how He has blessed us only to say that He has. In 1 week, I have cried tears of joy and thanksgiving in my kitchen and tears of repentance at the altar(read here). He has given me more than I can ever hope for or desire. Thanks be to you, Father!

Well, let's hear it...what are you confessing? I am listening with open ears and closed mouth!

    loved the help and loved the movie, it is the first book to movie i have seen that didn't piss me off because the book was SOOO much better.

    don't get me wrong the book was better, but the movie was very good.

    thanks for confessing!

    Thanks for popping by I love new visitors!! :) I am your newest follower! Keep holding out for the swap the next one will be even better than the last watch!

    I need to read The Help before I see it. It's something I actually want to read. It's finding the time that's hard. As I sit here reading blogs..that's enough reading for me in a day sometimes.

    Hollie, I am excited about it! Just not as gaga as everyone else...

    Vandy, it is a good and quick read.

    Random, thanks for the follow. I recommend the book and I will hold out for Mama's next swap!

    -I love this! Haha! But you're right, hugs and kisses from them can really melt our hearts!

    Hmmm I confess that I REALLY miss my family that mostly live on the west coast...and some in the midwest. BUT I honestly do not think I could live near any of them except my mother in law and she is moving to NC in the next couple of years. I just wish I could visit MY family more often.

    I also confess that I have been blessed with a job I can do at home a few hours a week. Doing what I love to do. Plus the possibility of a job doing another thing that I love to do but it will be more full time. (and hubby will be doing it too and part of the 'schoolin'.

    I have yet to read The Help, but I wanna really bad! My SIL said she hated it, but she can be kinda shallow. So we'll see I suppose. And I love living in the mountains, but I LOVE the summer. I am sorta sad it's on it's way out.

    I live in the Poconos, and we felt the Great East Coast Earthquake. It lasted for a split second, and everyone was in a tizzy for hours, lol. I lived in Japan for two years, so I'm used to them.

    Following you back from the vB hop!
