EEK!!! I am so excited!!! I got Big Daddy Weave's new album today!!! It comes out tomorrow but the place I pre-ordered it from got to me today!!! It is good so far!!! I am also excited because in two weeks I will be at Kingdom Bound!!!! I cannot believe it is coming so fast but I cannot wait. It will be amazing!!!! I will be seeing some pretty great Christian bands and artists like Skillet, Big Daddy Weave, Third Day, Matthew West, Hawk Nelson, Newsboys, Leeland, Downhere, and many more. I cannot wait like I said it will be such a great time in worship to God and giving Him glory and praise!!!
A week from this Tuesday will be Third Day's new album cannot wait for that either.
Saw the new Disney Pixar movie Wall-E over the weekend. Was a very good and cute movie and I definately recommend it. I loved it!!!! Possibly going to be seeing The Dark Knight this Thursday but not positive. All depends on money. I've got quite a few bills due this week as well as tons of other stuff coming up. This upcoming Sunday I will be going to the American Idol concert with my brother. I am looking forward to that. I will be seeing both David Archuleta and David Cook very excited!!!! Both we amazing on AI so it will be cool to see them sing live in person. If you know what I mean.
Finally finished the book Eragon yesterday the first book in the Inheritance Trilogy. Just began the second book Eldest. Watched the movie Eragon yesterday after finishing the book. I definately recommend reading the book. I wasn't too wild over the movie. They changed too many things wasn't really anything like the book. Oh well!
Anyways that is all from me for now. I made a bunch of new graphics will be posting an update with those soon.
BTW one year ago today the last and seventh installment of the Harry Potter series Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was released. That meant a year ago today I was reading all day so I could finish the book in one day. I did managed it by staying up until two in the morning. It was worth it though.

| Escape |

Couldn't think of what to call this so I just named it after the song I am currently listening to. Right now I am on the Christian band Rush of Fools' official myspace listening to some of their new stuff. They have a new album coming out in September it all sounds awesome so far. I love their new song "Wonder of the World" amazing and just wonderful song. Their first album was amazing and just encouraging and it at times brought me to my knees in worship to God. This song Escape I am listening to right now is amazing!!! Wow!!!!
A little more than two weeks until Kingdom Bound 2008! I cannot wait!!! This year's will be amazing I cannot wait to see 33 Miles, Matthew West, Third Day, Newsboys, Skillet, and so many of the others. This is always a great and amazing event to be a part of. I love Jesus so much and spending and worshiping with other believers is amazing. It is always so amazing to see all of the amazing and wonderful things that God can do through His people.
This past Sunday I got baptized and it was such an amazing and uplifting experience and something that I am happy I did. It is something that God has been putting on my heart for a little bit of time and I finally decided to take that step of faith and do it. My walk with the Lord although it has always been amazing just seems as though it has taken on a whole new meaning because of this. I am not ashamed of who I am in Christ and I wanted others to see how much I love Him through being baptized.
That is it from me for now. Hope you are all doing. All my best to you and God Bless!!!!

Sorry that it has been so long since I last posted on here. I was away on vacation two weeks ago and lately I have just been sort of slacking to be quite honest. Sorry for that. I really have no excuses. Hope all is going good for everyone. I am doing well. I have been going crazy trying to get my application field out for a missions trip I will be going on with my church in January to the Dominican Republic. I have to get a passport and everything and it has just been somewhat crazy. But all is good. Church and Vintage are awesome!!!! Vintage was awesome this past Tuesday the worship and everything was great. I absolutely love Tuesdays. Not much else going on. TTYL

| Everything |
|
This has been a long and crazy weekend. Yesterday I got my car inspected very exciting. Then I came home and cleaned through a bunch of stuff. It was very exciting.
Then today was of course Mother's Day so Happy Mother's Day to all moms!! King's World was crazy this morning. The other teacher called in today so we had two classes combined. It was a little chaotic and everything but it was all good. Then service was good today as well Pastor Dave gave the message. Then off to grandma and grandpa's it was fun as always. I always love seeing family.
On Friday I got involved in a new group at The Chapel called Murj. It is a singles group for people in their 30's and even though I am younger than that I thought it would be good anyways. I met a really nice guy there. Not sure of what will transpire just allowing God to work in my life in all areas. I had a great time with friends though.
Also working on a new web project a new fansite. Not going to reveal that until it is done...
So that is everything ttyl!!

| Random Thoughts |
|
I first want to take this moment to thank my brother for getting me into American Idol. Just when I thought I could care less about the show my brother was watching it and out came David Archuleta. Who is my pick for who will most likely win American Idol this year. He has an amazing voice and is my favorite he reminds me of Clay Aiken. I also really like David Cook.
And Lost??? What in the world was that last night. Is Claire still alive??? Gosh I hope so!!!
For the past few weeks I have been reading through the book of 1 Kings in the Bible. It is such an interesting book. It is amazing to me how time and time again how all of those kings would turn away from God and sacrifice to idols and just do such horrible things. In the end God ended up taking them out. But it is crazy you know. I don't how anyone can just pretend like God isn't there and just deny Him. To me it is do evident that He exists.
Oh and yeh 4 days until Clay Aiken's new album!!! I cannot wait!!! I have been listening to clips of it and it sounds amazing!!! This will be awesome!!!
Also this is very random why when people breakup why do they say they will stay friends with you but it seems as though they really don't mean it. I mean friends talk to each other right??? I don't know.
I think that is all that I wanted to say today. TTYL.

| Crazy Few Days |
|
So I am completely and totally exhausted. This past week has been crazy and non-stop. I am so looking forward to the upcoming weekend because I am off from work and everything. I have enjoyed the last few days it has just be quite exhausting.
I had to work yesterday which went pretty good. Work is work you know. Then today I had Sunday School and then my sister's baby shower which was awesome. I had a great time and loved spending time with family!!! I will have pics up on my myspace and facebook soon.
I came home today and just lay down and watched the Disney Channel. Yeah I know it sounds lame but I was tired. And as far as the Disney Channel it is probably one of the few decent channels still out there. Love Hannah Montana so funny always!! Then AI Rewind was on too. Was the finale with Clay and Ruben. Clay was so amazing!!! Love hearing him sing. For any other Clay fan's he will be on QVC tomorrow singing and all that good stuff. His new album one week from Tuesday I cannot wait!!!!! I already have two copies pre-ordered and will probably pick up another. I know again lame but oh well I don't care.
BTW God is amazing and wonderful and I suggest everyone pickup a copy of Chris Taylor's album "Take Me Anywhere" because it is amazing and I have been truly blessed by it. His heart and passion for God is amazing!!! It is worth getting!!!
So I am exhausted and I am going now. TTYL.

So yesterday I saw Kutless. It was absolutely amazing!!! This was Kutless' Acoustic Tour so they changed up some of their songs but it was amazing! If you have a chance to get out to this tour do it you won't be sorry. The two openers I saw Chris Taylor and Esterlyn were also amazing. I bought both of their cds and love them.
After the show I had the opportunity to meet Chris, Esterlyn, and Kutless. All amazing guys with hearts that scream out their faith. It is great to see that too. Bands and artists who are so humble and don't act anything like some of those in Hollywood do. These guys are blessed and amazing!!
Thanks to my brother too for getting me into American Idol this year. He was watching it the other day and I got into it!! Ahh!! I haven't watched since Fantasia won and I watch AI Rewind on Sundays because it is the year Clay was on. I became a Clay fan after AI so I never saw him on their until now. He was amazing. As for this year's AI I am predicting that David Archutela will win. He has a great voice!! I was right when I guessed Carrie Underwood when I only saw her audition. So we will see. David Cook is also great. If you can download his version of Music of The Night from Phantom of The Opera off of ITUNES do it because it is amazing!!
That is all from me for now. I am exhausted from yesterday still. So ttyl.

Yesterday I spent some quality time with the family and it was great. Church service was great and my whole day was great. Spending time with family is always great because you can never get that back. I love them. Vintage tomorrow and 3 more days until Kutless!!! I cannot wait I am so looking forward to that concert. Yeh!!!

| What Is The Point? |
|
What is the point of messing around and hacking into someone's site. I say this cause my Kimmie Meissner fansite was hacked into and messed with. When you went to the site it started trying to download stuff. I went to into where I store my files through my host and stuff that I hadn't uploaded was all on there. Totally annoying. I was able to fix it and everything is okay it was just frustrating!! May God Bless whoever did that. I changed my password too.
Other than everything else is good and I am feeling really. I am quite joyful and just embracing every moment!! God has really been working in me and restoring me and He is just so amazing!
6 more days until I see Kutless!!! Cannot wait!!! Not much else to share right now. TTYL.

| Days Go By |
|
Sorry that I haven't posted in so many days. Tuesday I got home so late from Vintage I just wanted to get to bed and yesterday I was dealing with some stuff. All better now. Vintage was good on Tuesday. They talked about suffering and the love of God.
This is my view on suffering because it is something that everyone goes through. That through suffering God is always there and it is through His Name that we are healed. Through the suffering we also find who we are made of and we become stronger then before. Over the years since I became a Christian through my pain and suffering I have just become stronger in my faith. Lately especially within the last year I have found that when things start going down hill that I am able to push through and get through them easier then before. I get down at times sure but through God's grace I pull myself out and continue to be the woman of God I am meant to be. So in your suffering praise God and thank Him and believe me you can get out of it. On the other side of that dark time it is always amazing. Really it truly is.
I am tired so I am going ttyl!!!

| Some Changes |
|
I've added some new things to the site today. I have added under the Me section a new section called My Sites. That is where you can go to find out more about the three other sites I run. Then the site/web link is finally working. I only have an about the site section there. There you can go and read up how and why this site got started.
Also I made some new avatars and blends today. Five avatars and blends of Hilary Duff and two avatars and one blend of Amanda Bynes. Also check out some more of my many other graphics there. Feel free to use any just give me credit!! Thanks and enjoy!!!
Then also on the side under the My Recommended Links part I have added a new link for a Christian organization Compassion. Compassion is a ministry that holds dear to my heart. Through Compassion you can sponsor a young child who lives in any of the many countries where resources like food and education are unheard of. I sponsor a young girl in India and all it costs is $32/month. It is well worth it when you realize what that can mean for that child. It provides them with food, shelter, an education, and most importantly they learn about Christ. If you are unsure because of the fact that you aren't sure of where your money is going I will be the first to say it goes right to the source. I get letters every once in a while from my sponsored child and her family. So your money goes to where it says it is going. It is an amazing ministry and organization and something that I feel strongly about. No child should ever have to suffer for anything, they don't ask for those circumstances and if we can help then we should. Sure you might have to sacrifice buying yourself things you want but it is well worth it. Really think about it and if you feel up to sponsoring a child click on the Compassion link on the side.

| Shop Til I Drop |
|
That is what I did today. I went shopping with my mom. First we went to Babies R Us because I had to get my sister a gift for her shower which is in two weeks. Very exciting it was kind of hard finding the stuff in the store but we eventually managed. Then we went over to the mall and I got this really cute new outfit for my sister's shower. Very cute. Then I went over to Macy's and got Hilary Duff's new fragrance Wrapped With Love that came out a few months ago. Smells very lovely!!! I really like it.
Other than that I am exhausted after shopping for a few hours. It was fun though. I got a new layout up on my Hilary site yeh!!! Speaking of Hilary listening to her right now and singing right along. Oh yeah I have listened to Clay's new song so many times the last two days that I have already got most of the lyrics memorized. Help!!! Seriously!!! Oh well....I don't know. I think that is it. Not much else going on. TTYL.

| Finally.... |
|
So happy that this week is finally over. It has been a long exhausting week at work. Happy to have this weekend to relax and all that good stuff. I'm going out shopping with my mom tomorrow to pick out a baby shower gift for my sister. That should be exciting.
Today I got three more new cds. Yeah I know I need help. But I love music and I love hearing new stuff. I am trying to sneak a listen to some of the artists that are Kingdom Bound whose music I am not as familiar with. I got Hawk Nelson's new album which is amazing, Delirious's new album not bad, and Starfield who isn't coming to Kingdom Bound's new album. They are an awesome band!!! Love them. Their remake of the Hillsong song "Hosanna" is lovely!!!
So for those who would like to hear Clay's new single. You can click on the link to my myspace page on the side and you will hear Clay's new single. I have it as my profile song!!! It is amazing!!! I love it!!! Can't wait for his new album.
My last thoughts before I go from a Hawk Nelson song...
Wrap Your arms around me I know
Trying hard not to let go
Every time I stand up, I fall without You
When You wrap Your arms around me I know
With me wherever I go
Nothing else matters at all when You're here
Hawk Nelson - Arms Around Me
I am going now ttyl!!

| Long Day |
|
It has seriously been a long day!!! I am so exhausted. Work was exciting. I was trained on something new by my boss Bill. It is pretty cool stuff!!! I now have more things that I know and that is always a good thing.
I came home today and worked on some more stuff with my Hilary Duff site. I am really trying to improve that one by making the gallery section bigger. It is such a long process.
So I never got to mention this yesterday I was reading some stuff on the upcoming Kutless concert I am going to and in the article they mentioned that they are singing their one song "Promise of A Lifetime." That got me so excited because that is my favorite song by them!!! It is the song that literally turned me into a huge fan of theirs. I cannot wait for this concert. Two weeks from tomorrow!!! So awesome!!!!
So I mentioned little about Vintage and talked highly of the band Everoutward. But yesterday was an awesome time of worship with that band. God has really been drawing me close to Him and I am doing all that I can to keep Him my focus!
That is all for today. TTYL.

| Evertoutward |
|
It is late and I should be getting to bed but I am back from a night out at Vintage. Today was a different night for Vintage they had a cd release party for this band Everoutward who all go The Chapel and are part of the worship band on Tuesday. It was awesome!!! This band is amazing and I am using all that I have to spread the word about them. God has truly blessed this band and they are wonderful. You can check out there official site at http://www.everoutward.com. You can order their cd there and everything. Check them out!!
Also today I was able to preview Clay Aiken's single off of his new album. The single is titled "On My Way Here" like his new album. This song is awesome!!! I love it!!! Very, very good!!!! Can't wait for his new album.
I'll have more tomorrow now it is time for bed for me. TTYL.

| Look At The Big Plan |
|
Sometimes it's hard to not let the little things get you down! But you need to remember that God has a plan of your life and He wants the best for you. Whenever you get down, remember God's big plan.
I took the above off from the curriculum for next weeks lesson that I will be doing in our kids ministry. Definately something that I need to keep in mind for myself. I need to always remind myself that no matter what I go through that through it all that God is there and He knows what He is doing. God's plan for my life is perfect and I can trust God and know that He wants the very best for me because He does. Now again I just have to remind myself of that all the time.
Church was awesome today!!! Pastor Jerry preached an amazing message today. Well worth listening to. Really awesome. He really laid down what it means to be a believer in Christ and what is that we all need to do. I recommend listening to his message it should be up by Tuesday or Wednesday. Click on The Chapel link on the side and check it out. Awesome stuff. A lot that I need to do and follow through on.
The rest of my day was pretty good. Worked on more site stuff. I have been making screencaps of Hilary Duff's music videos. It is fun actually. I only have two to go. It is time consuming but fun. Thank God that she doesn't have that many.
Back to work tomorrow!!! Woohoo!!! We're getting a free lunch for working so hard the last few weeks so that is cool. Not much else. TTYL.

| Saturday Night In |
|
So my Saturday hasn't been too bad. This is the first time in a little bit where I had absolutely nothing to do. No plans or anything. I have pretty much been home all day. Went for a walk in the afternoon which was nice. Good exercise as well as a time to get out and look at the amazing world that God has created. It is amazing all that God has done and for me the amazing place and home He has blessed me with. Also went with my parents when they ran a few errands. Very exciting let me tell you.
For the most part today I have been at work in getting my Hilary Duff site's image gallery up to date. Still tons more to go there. I am adding in images from appearances that Hilary made back in 2003 and I still have to get to events in 2007. So it still quite a big task but it is fun and I like doing it. While doing that I also managed to watched two episodes of Gilmore Girls, the Disney movie 101 Dalmations, and an episode of Hannah Montana. And yes I do know those last two things are for kids but at times I can be like a big kid. Plus the kids stuff always makes me laugh and it never has anything that I have to worry about in there.
Last game for the Sabres today for the the season :( Wearing my Sabres hoodie in support. I'm not actually going to watch the game because I get nervous when watching hockey don't ask I know I am weird already!! But I want them to do well in the last game of the season. Go Sabres!!!! So I think that is everything. Going to do some more work on my Hilary site and just chill here at home for the night. Looking forward to church tomorrow!!! Then another relaxing day for me. All good.
TTYL.

| Vintage View |
|
Bet I am throwing you off by talking about something with Vintage on Friday!! That is if anyone actually comes on reads any of this. I wouldn't know. I don't track the number of visits on this site.
Anyways let me get to where I was going. So Vintage has this awesome new thing on their website vintagetruth.com called Vintage View. It is pretty cool because what it is, is a place for guys or girls to go and ask relationship questions. Laura and Kemper Lewis who run it both head up the relationship series every year at Vintage. Laura teaches the girls and Kemper the guys. The site is really cool though. You should check it out. I went there today because I thought of sending in a question to Laura because of something I have been struggling with. Well when I went to the site today someone else had asked my question. It was pretty awesome!!! God knew what I needed to hear. Now I need to keep all of what I read in mind and practice it.
So Friday yeh!!! No work. So happy to have a nice relaxed weekend. I will probably work on some site stuff. Maybe change the layouts on my other two sites. Their is a thought.
I made two small changes to this site today. On the sidebar I have put two new things. One called Find Me Here which are links to my myspace, blogspot, and livejournal. I figured for those who want to know more about me they can go to those. For the blogspot and livejournal I post the same things that I post on the forum here. Then the other new thing is the My Recommended Links spot. Those are links to some sites that I love and recommend. I am also thinking of adding a thing to the side to click on the most recent blogs to read.
Think that is it. Got to try and post my most recent blog on my myspace again. Was giving me some error earlier. Got to try it again.
Here is another pointless tangent for today. So my favorite music artists at the moment...33 Miles, Tim Hughes, Skillet, and Clay Aiken. Listening to these cds right now that is why I am saying that. Love, love all of the above. However...my favorite song at the moment is Jeremy Camp's version of "Everything That Has Breath" so good!! Love that song brings a smile to my face. One day everything that has breath will praise the Lord!!! Hallelujah!!!
TTYL.

| Enchanted |
|
So today my family and I watched the Disney movie Enchanted. So cute!!! I love that movie. Very fun and just a great feel good movie!!! I recommend it. It made me laugh and smile and know that true love does exist and sometimes it is right there in front of us. I just hope that while at work tomorrow I don't break out in song lol!!! That would be embarassing.
On the DVD they also had a preview for the new Chronicles of Narnia movie Prince Caspian. That looks absolutely amazing I cannot wait for that movie. It should be awesome a little more than a month off.
Not much going on today. I had a pretty good day at work and well that is it. Tomorrow is Friday!!! Yeh!!! I don't work this weekend so it should be nice and relaxing!!! Dang just heard the Sabres lost. No playoffs this year!! Dang oh well. Their is always next year. I still love them anyways!! TTYL.

| In A Blink Of An Eye |
|
That is how fast this life will be over. In a blink of an eye. I get so annoyed with myself that I can get so caught up in my ownself forgotting all about Christ somedays. It annoys me but lately I have really been putting all of my focus onto God. I was talking about that devotional book that they had at Vintage yesterday and that I got. Wow!!! Did that ever hit me hard this morning. The prayer that I read for today was amazing. The words were so heartfelt and just beautiful. Days go by where I at times don't even thank God. That is so shameful and horrible. We really need to and I am talking about myself need to thank God. He placed us here and He does so much for us. He died for us. If you can't think of anything else to be thankful for think about the cross!!
So I am finally all caught up on my sites yeh!!! I even have this site caught up. I have the entire Word of God Speak section done. That is where you can get to any blogs that I have posted. These go all the way back to March of 2007 when I first started blogging and up to the most recent one. I have also added an about me section with tidbits about myself in there. That section can be found under the ME section. I am happy to have gotten some stuff there.
Right now I am listening to my Clay cds and just remembered how much I love these albums. Very soothing. I love his version of the song "Without You" so awesome! Yeah I think I am done. Very tired.
TTYL.

| I Could Sing Of Your Love Forever |
|
Tonight at Vintage God seriously broke through in my life. I cannot begin to tell you how much God got me there. I was there worshipping and just broke free and began to thank God for who He is and what He has done in my life. God is amazing!!! I don't know it was amazing during worship instead of allowing my mind to run a mile a minute I just let myself free and began to just do what I knew to do and that is worship God with all that I am and my whole heart.
The message at Vintage tonight was pretty good today too and it hit me pretty good too. It made me realize that even though some of what I have been going through lately has been rough that really in the long run it will have been for the better. I will share more of what Vintage was about tomorrow. It is kind of late today and I am sort of tired. Since I don't want to post everything here because it is so much you can either view this info on Vintage on the forum or on my blog on myspace or my blogspot which can be found at tara98gold.blogspot.com. I just opened the blogspot as a way to reach even more people around the world. Trying to reach every man, woman, and child and blogspot is another place to do that through.
Also Vintage put together this awesome 39-day devotional booklet filled with ways to get closer to Christ. It has prayers for each day that were written by people and it is pretty cool. A great way to get closer to God. If you go to The Chapel and are trying to find ways to get closer to God and don't know how. This devotional is a great way to do that. The cost was $3 and it is worth it when the cost means growing closer to Christ.
This is going to sound lame but oh well. So I was looking at the schedule for Kingdom Bound which is in August. It got me really excited for that and I cannot wait. Already started to plan for that. Yes I realize it is quite a few months off but it is never too early to start planning. I have no idea. Yeh Sabres won today!!! Woohoo!! Time for bed. TTYL.

| The Right Thing |
|
"Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same"
Right now that line from The Fray's All At Once is speaking to me pretty strongly. It really can be a struggle and a battle to do the right thing. Sometimes doing the right thing can also be really hard.
Some of the decisions that I need to make for myself right now are really hard for me. I know that I can put all of my trust into God and know that all will be okay. The thing that is so hard is the whole learning to let it go and give it to God. Once something is given to God it is gone. But unfortunately giving it to God doesn't take the emotions or feelings away real fast. Those things are still there. The healing process is slow. Sometimes I think especially for myself that I expect things to be better in a matter of moments and when it is taking longer I get mad and aggrevated with myself.
The truth is that I am human and although all that I am is with Christ in heaven the pain that is being felt is still there especially when it is so fresh. God loves me no matter where I am. I know that in the moments when I am suffering that God is right there putting His arms around me reminding me that He loves me just the way I am. If I keep that thought in perspective it can make things a little easier. It again doesn't just brush it away and get rid of the pain but it helps.
A broken heart is something that takes time to heal. I realize that and I know that as I am here that God is the one that is repairing my heart. Sometimes it makes me wonder why I always have to go through these times of pain and suffering but the thing that I do know is that whenever I go through these moments I always come back stronger than I was before. Right now I have no idea why I went through what I just did. I know in time I will and I know that in time that what I am dealing with now will be healed and repaired.
Sorry about all of that. TTYL!!! Vintage tomorrow!!! Last part of our Make Your Future Marriage Make It series. If you haven't checked Vintage out yet make sure you do. Starts at 8 at The Chapel at Crosspoint!!!
One last thing if you have never listened or heard of this awesome band 33Miles you really need to check them out. Their cd is one of the ones that I had ordered and it is amazing!!!!

| Cheering Up |
|
Okay I know that all joy and happiness comes from God. Let me say this though. I was watching AI Rewind today because it is the season that Clay was on. And well listening to him sing can just melt my heart and cheer me up. He is also sort of cute. And yes I do realize that I don't have a chance with him. I don't really think about him quite like that. I will admit I think he is cute and yes his voice is amazing but I know that I will never marry him.
So church was good today. King's World was awesome all the kids were so cute today. They were just so well behaved today and they just all put a smile on my face. This one girl was so good at finding the answers in the Bible it was pretty cool.
The sermon today was really awesome too. Pastor Jerry spoke all about being viral for Jesus and reaching out to as many as we can. Awesome message. The message should be up on The Chapel website in the next few days. Well worth hearing.
Also everyone needs to check out the awesome video that can be seen here at http://www.youtube.com/user/thechapelatcrosspt. Their is some good stuff there. Well worth viewing.
Back to work tomorrow! Yeh I get to work from 9-6! Hey I forgot got my tickets for Kingdom Bound on Friday!!! Yeh!!! Can't wait for that.
That is all for now. TTYL!!

| Being Single |
|
It is something that none of us really like. Being single. Especially as we get up their in age we want nothing more than to be in a relationship with someone and get married. However sometimes being single is okay. This is a time of our lives that we need to embrace as hard and difficult as it can be at times. Believe me I know how hard it can be. I am just having to deal with that and realize that during this time I need to be completely and entirely devoted to God. I need to embrace my singleness and be here to do all that God is asking of me. This season of my life is something I will never be able to do again.
Of course I one day want to get married but the time is not now. This is my time to be devoted to God and to serve Him.
That being said I am sorry that I haven't updated this site in the past few days. The last few days have been sort of rough and I have been dealing with stuff but I am a lot better now. Thanks to all the prayers and everything. God has really begun to move in my life and help me bring back my joy and the strength that I have. I will do my best to begin work on this site again. I have time and I need to do this.
Funny thing, so today I got my cds from this place called Sound and Spirit. It is a part of BMG where it is all Christian music. So I got my order today like I said and they sent me one wrong cd for a person I have no idea who they are. Oh well!!! I contacted them about it but it made me laugh for some dumb reason!! I don't know!!
That is everything. TTYL.

| Vintage Is Pure |
|
Today's topic at Vintage was purity. Staying pure until marriage. Was a pretty good topic. Some tips Pastor Wes gave or Practical Guidelines as He called them are:
- Keep your feet on the floor
- Keep your bed your bed
- Keep everything buttoned and zipped
- Keep your tongue in your mouth
Once again I thought Pastor Wes gave some good information that I can put to practice. I was excited because one of my friends I haven't seen in months showed up. Awesome!!! But if you want to hear more of this message you can go to vintagetruth.com and you can download any of his messages. Everything is Podcasted (is that a word??). It is some good stuff and worth listening to.
Friday and Saturday at The Chapel we are having a Relationships seminar. I can only go Friday because I work Saturday but like one of my friends said one day is better then none. So that should be good.
Also I have a prayer request for all those who pray. Please pray for my friend Denise. I work with her and today she was taken to the hospital by ambulance. Denise has cysts and was in so much pain that she couldn't move. So please pray. I will keep you posted.
Thanks. TTYL.

| Work In Progress |
|
As those who visit this site now this site is a work in progress. I just spent the last hour or so linking to my blogs so people can get to them from this site. I have only gotten to May of 2007 and I still have like two pages left. Crazy!! Well not my blogging that isn't crazy because that is all to reach out to everyone and share Christ. It is just a long process. I never realized how long I have been doing this for. So I will continue on that page on Wednesday because tomorrow I will be out at Vintage!
I forgot all about this the last few days. But I am so happy because at the World Figure Skating Championships in the Men's Event Jeffrey Buttle won!!! Yeh!!! He is my favorite male skater at the moment. Yes I do realize he isn't American but oh well he is great. He is Canadian and he skated so well. So awesome!! Anways I am off now I am going to listen to clips of music. Sounds exciting huh??? I assure you it is.
TTYL.

| Happy Easter |
|
So I first wanted to wish everyone a Happy Easter / Resurrection Day!!! You know today is a day to totally celebrate. To celebrate the fact that Jesus is risen and alive today. What Jesus accomplished is amazing and He did it for every single person here on earth. Not one person is left out. He did it for all.
I hope everyone had a great Easter and celebrated Christ. I went to church this morning and sat through an amazing service and then served in King's World (our kids ministry) doing some small group leading with the 2nd graders. Their weren't too many kids and it at times was a tad bit stressful but for the most part it was great. I was a little more nervous today for reasons I don't care to share. Hoping I did good!! :) Then after church I went on to my grandparents house and celebrated with family. Family time is always a good time. I love my family and enjoy spending time with them.
Back to work tomorrow. Yeh!! No all is good. It was nice to have this weekend off. It was nice to just relax and have a good time.

| It is Finally the Weekend |
|
Yes!! The weekend is finally here. I am thrilled because I don't have to work at all. I was able to sleep in and relax!! What a wonderful and refreshing feeling. This past week has been non-stop craziness. Work has been nuts especially yesterday but all is well and I feel way more rested then I have in a few days. Nice feeling.
So Worlds for the ladies finished up Thursday night! Kimmie finished in 7th!! Oh well she skated alright. I still think she is great no matter what. She will come bouncing back next year. I was kind of happy however that she was the top American skater. Not that I have anything against the other two but Kimmie is my fav and I kind of always favor her and I am pretty biased towards her.
I went to the Good Friday service at The Chapel yesterday and I thought it was pretty awesome! From the time when we took part in the Lord's Supper to the end I just felt such a weight on my heart. I actually started tearing up because I really thought about the price that was paid for me to be here. It is heartbreaking to know what Jesus went through for us because He loves us. It really cuts into you and just makes you realize that no matter who or where you are that someone loves you and loves you so much that they died for you and took your sin on the cross. Amazing. I can't wait for tomorrow's Easter service. If it is anything like last years then I will be breaking down and crying. Great just what I need all my makeup to be all over the place. No I'm just kidding. But I will bring some extra stuff along with me in case.
Well I am going to go now I think I am going to work on putting up new layouts on all of my sites. I have made up new ones for both Hilary and Hayden. I need to work on one for Kimmie. I will update here if I actually get that done. It is pretty time consuming so only one might get done. We will see.
That being said everyone have a blessed and amazing Easter and celebrate tomorrow because He is Risen and He is ALIVE!!!
Well that is it for now. TTYL!!!

| So Happy |
|
So today was the short program for the ladies at the World Championships and yeh Kimmie is back!!! She is in 9th after the short program which sounds not so good but she skated so well. Saw the video on YouTube. She was amazing!! After her long at Nationals I was crying because I felt so bad for her. It was great to see her bounce back and look confident with herself. I think her decision to change coaches was a good one. Long program is Saturday and I can't wait. Kimmie is only 3 points out of 3rd so she can easily move up and I know she can do it!!
Today I also got to listen to the sermon that was preached on Sunday!!! That was amazing!!! A new take and view on the Triumphal Entry!! Very good!!! It cut me pretty deep and I know that I want to continue spreading God's love. But very good. You can check that out if you want and listen to it at http://www.thechapel.com. It is worth listening to.
Not sure if anyone else reading this watches the CW show One Tree Hill and caught this past week's episode. But yeh!!! So happy with the way that turned out. The whole Lindsay-Peyton-Lucas thing happy with what happened there. Don't want to say much for those who haven't seen it yet. Lost tomorrow!! Last new episode till April. And yeh I think OTH is being moved to Monday which works for me. OTH has been on Tuesday nights during Vintage so I always have to tape it. Not really a big deal but it will make things easier. Vintage by the way always comes first for me and means way more to me than any tv show. Yep!!!
Well that is it for now. TTYL!!!

| Vintage Love!!! |
|
Wow!!! Vintage was amazing tonight!!! I learned so much today!!! This new series is absolutely amazing!!! Today Pastor Wes taught on what to look for in the right person. He talked on the 5 things that are key to look for in the right person.
- Christ - do they love Christ, think are you closer to Christ because of then or in spite of them?
- Character - do they have good character. Five things to watch out for here.
- What do they stand for?
- What are they entertained by?
- How do they treat the topic of sex and purity?
- What comes out of their mouth?
- Do I honestly respect them?
- Companions - Do they say yes to God and do the people they hang around say yes to God?
- Competent - Are they growing in maturity, in righteousness. Are they growing in communication, spiritually, and financially.
- Chemistry - are you attracted to them. Not just physical do you connect socially and spiritually as well.
I thought all of that was good and I just wanted to share it. It is a good thing to keep in mind for those single, just starting in a relationship, or those who are already in one. Good stuff. So Vintage is awesome!!!

| Still Exhausted |
|
I actually got quite a bit of sleep but I am still exhausted!! Not sure of what the deal is with that. I was pretty much a zombie at work today. I was slurring words at times they probably thought I was drunk. LOL!!! Really I wasn't I don't even drink. No thanks. Work was crazy and busy again today!! All I can say for that is it makes the day go by fast.
I got my Kingdom Bound pamphlet in the mail today yeh!!! I can't wait for that!!! I have to buy my tickets within the next few weeks or the prices go up. I am excited because Matthew West is coming and I really want to see him and Third Day is coming back and Skillet!! Wish Kutless was coming but they are coming to Cheektowaga in April and I will see them then. I've seen them live once back in November when they opened for the Newsboys and they were amazing!! I also got to meet them afterward.
Me With Kutless
So tomorrow is Vintage yeh!!! Can't wait since I missed service yesterday I am really looking forward to tomorrow. Remember if any want to come and you are from the ages 18-30 join us at 8 at The Chapel at Crosspoint. It is a great time I assure you and you won't regret it.
Also if you need a great place of worship for the upcoming Easter weekend you can check out The Chapel then too. We are having a Good Friday service at 7 no childcare and then on Sunday the service times are 7am, 9am, 11am, and 1pm. Their is childcare for the 9, 11, and 1 o'clocks services.
That's it from me for now. TTYL!!!

| Gallery Part Deleted |
|
I should totally be getting ready for bed but here I am typing. I just wanted to say that I am going to be getting rid of the gallery portion of this site. This is a personal site that is meant to glorify God and although I have no problems with celebs I don't need pictures up here of them. I run three fansites and that takes up enough of time. I have deleted the link for now and will eventually change the graphic and delete that part from the menu I just don't have time now. So that's it goodbye and goodnight.

| The Weekend is Over Already??? |
|
I can't believe it is Sunday night already!!! I feel like the weekend just started and that is probably because my weekend has been nonstop craziness the entire time. It was fun but crazy. I haven't recovered and I am back to work tomorrow. Oh well!!!
So yesterday after work which was crazy busy I saw the new Dr Seuss movie "Horton Hears A Who." It was really good and I definately recommend it to all young or old. Doesn't matter. It had me laughing and the message in the movie was great too. It actually had a lot of God references too. Although people may think you are crazy because you believe in something you can't see it doesn't mean that it isn't there. Which is the way it is with God. True I can't see Him but I know that He is with me no matter where I am. That is so awesome. So I definately recommend that movie and urge you to see it.
Today I was kind of sad I had to miss service at church but it was my cousin Larry's daughter Madison's 1st birthday today. They had a party for her in Rochester. So even though I had to miss service (I will listen to it during the week) I still had a great time. I played an awesome game of nickel toss with my brother and cousins Ashley who is 9 and Marissa who is 12. I also witnessed a young boy take my brother's pop not knowing that and drink it. It was pretty funny!!! But yeah it was fun and Madison is cute!!!
Today is Palm Sunday. Amazing to believe all that happened in this time when Jesus went through what He did. It is also awesome knowing that Jesus is still alive with us now because of His resurrecting.
Well I have got to get going. American Idol Rewind starts shortly and I need to catch that. TTYL.

| Blah!!! |
|
Yeah that is sort of how this crazy week has been!!! Work has been absolutely nuts this week!!! It has been especially crazy these last two days. Yesterday I and one other person were like the only two people inputting. Most who are reading this probably have no clue as to what I am talking about. Well I work at M&T Bank in the Consumer Lending division and a great deal of my work is data entering car, rv, and boat loan applications that are sent in from dealerships. It can be sort of crazy at times. But I made it through and I am stress free now!!! Praise God that He is always with me or I think that I would lose my mind!!!
So yeah that is basically it!!! Oh I love Vintage!!! It is the Tuesday night young adult group at my church The Chapel at Crosspoint. You can check out the site here at http://www.vintagetruth.com. Vintage is probably like the highlight of my week. I know that Christ is always with me but by going to Vintage I get to praise and worship God with almost about 500 young people ranging from 18-30. It is amazing to see people this age so in love with God. The preaching is always amazing too!!! Pastor Wes Aarum is awesome and really keeps you paying attention. They just started a new series called Make Your Future Marriage Make It. It is pretty much all about marriage and it is was awesome Tuesday!! If you live in the Buffalo, NY area you really need to check Vintage out. It is on Tuesday starting at 8 and it really is an amazing time!!!
Okay I think that is it from me for now. I will ttyl!!!

| Curling |
|
So yeah I went curling yesterday and I am so sore today. My legs are killing me. Let me say this I have a new found respect for those curlers now. It is a lot harder than it looks. And don't you know the girl who has figure skated most of her life and grew up on the ice is the one who landed flat on her backside first. I did it to make everyone else feel better. I felt so stupid and I was so embarassed!!! I have a nice bruise to show for that too. I fell so hard that for a moment I thought that I was going to pass out but I was alright and I recovered.
But um yeah it is definately a challenging sport but it was fun!!! Curling is sort of like bowling but not exactly. My team ended up winning. Yeah the girls beat the boys by a point. And though some say that we cheated we totally didn't we won fair and square. Woohoo!!!!
I am having some difficulties walking today. My legs are killing me and my arms a little bit sore. Those rocks that curlers use are pretty heavy!!! But yeah that is all that went on with my exciting curling adventure.

| Hmm... |
|
Okay for some reason when I was checking this at work it wasn't working but now here from home it is fine! Grr!!! That is frustrating. If it looks fine here but not at work I don't even know what to fix!!! I can't fix it at work because I don't have access to what I need plus all of my files are here. I am annoyed!!! What to do??? So yeah I have no idea how this looks else where. Looks good to me now!

| Welcome |
|
Welcome to the site I am still in the process of working out all of the kinks and such!! This is a place meant for people to know me but most importantly for those to form a relationship with Christ. The most important decision you can ever make is the one you make as far as Jesus goes. He is the center of my life and at the center of all that I do. This site is going to be set as sort of blog as well as a place for those to grow with God or even start a relationship with Him. This is my third time starting a personal site and this time I plan to have it stick. This site is more than just a place about me it is about God and what this site to glorify Him above all else!!
