Woman: Can I have birth control?
Government: No.
Woman: I got pregnant because I didn't have birth control and I don't want the fetus. Can I have an abortion?
Government: No.
Woman: I gave birth to my child but since I wasn't expecting it, I can't afford daycare. Can I have help paying for it?
Government: No.
Woman: My boyfriend isn't excited about sex anymore, because I lost my figure due to pregnancy. Will you pay for his erectile dysfunction pills?
Government: Yes.
Never did she find anything so difficult as to keep herself from losing her...

I have to say, Valentine’s Day is still haunting me almost two weeks later.
What to give up for Lent?
Maybe I’ll limit my cookie/sweets to once a week instead of almost everyday?
OMG, my grandma just suggested my sis and I move in together…we haven’t gotten along since I was 7.
Found this today...
on the longhaircareforum Christian boards and needed to share the message:
Psalm 46:10 “Be still and know that I am God.” So many times we make situations more than they are due to our anxiety, CALM DOWN! God has your life under control; He knows how to handle even the seemingly complex situation with ease. SHUT UP ! Stop having pity parties and talking about your business all the...

So breakoutbras is having this really awesome swimsuit sale…for those of you who need bathing suits to fit your bust, this is perfect…some prices are super amazing (like an original $68 top for only $24-$30)!!! I think that even though I don’t really have the money this week to go shopping for a much needed bathing suit (slash bikini top), I’ll probably head over there to...
Hmmm
So I may NOT be actually moving to a different city after all….but I still plan on moving out really, really soon!!! Like hopefully before the new job starts!
I have a dilemma, move to Columbia and work in an unsafe mall or move out of my mom’s place and live in the upstate (which is something I dread)? Decisions, decisions…
I just had an awesome dinner of pretzels and a turkey sandwich-with water…I guess I really am unintentionally losing weight by eating healthy…or maybe I’m just too lazy to actually get off my butt and cook something.
Yay!
I’m officially/unofficially moving to Columbia come February!!!!! I just learned that my start date will be February 13th.

I have to announce my news: I just got a amazing Freya bra for $24.99 at Dillard’s!!! It’s a 36G which is a little big in the band but nothing I can’t easily deal with. It’s a Freya Ingrid bra and it’s super cute! I knew I loved Dillard’s for a reason (they’re the only place that has bras in my size on clearance and the only place I prefer to get my...
Tomorrow one of my best friends is getting married and despite the issues, I couldn’t be happier for her. See, she had a bad breakup but didn’t give up on love, she didn’t automatically assume every guy would lie and cheat on her. She instead believe in the best in everyone (even the girl her ex cheated on her with), instead she opened her heart once again and knew that every...
Sometimes I wish my family would be grateful for what they have. They tend to measure love by money (i.e. if I give, I must truly care for them). What they don’t understand is that I usually spend the most on those who could care less or who aren’t expecting anything. It really pisses me off that they think I should spend money on Christmas presents for them when everything they all...
I’m so excited to make apple butter tomorrow. I got all my ingredients today and I’m kinda following my own recipe with the help of others but no matter what I use, it’s definitely going to turn out yummy! (And make for the perfect end of semester present for my college friends!)
I’m seriously considering my next project to be scones…maybe apple scones to go with my...

Book reviews
So I said I’d start doing book reviews in order to get through the multitude of books I have stored on my Kindle but I have to actually finally start reading those books first. Not sure when I’ll get the time since for some reason it’s almost impossible for me to crochet and read a book at the same time (since I’m a fast reader, I need to turn pages faster than I can finish...
I’m really starting to think the scales at the doctor’s office is wrong…how can I be 180 pounds but wear a size 8? Or maybe it’s just my body is weirdly distorted, how can my hips be 42 inches and me be a size 8…it just doesn’t make any sense!
I think this week will be about making Apple Butter and crocheting a hat…not a bad week at all.
I’m thinking I need to bake…yea definitely going to be baking this weekend at some point…now the question is what should I bake?
New stuff
So, it’s been a while since I’ve been on Tumblr and I’ve recently decided that I’m going to read through my Kindle books (I have 100+ books that i have yet to read on there). Because of this, I’m planning on doing book reviews of the books I’m reading. It’ll be my own personal way of talking about the books I read.
Now, on to news: I’m currently...

Omg…i just finished an excellent episode of Dr. Who and it was awesome!!!!!!! I’m sooo glad I decided to watch this one after work and I’m giving thanks to a friend who first introduced me to the Doctor while she taught me how to crochet and knit!! So thanks Allyson!!!
