Because Writing Is Comforting...

I have started my own "Expression Writing" site for others to write and share. Writing is my life and I think I'd be lost without it. Writing lets me create me, be who I am and who I want to be, share and heal.

If you love to write. Join me! This site is by invitation only, so send your email to me at shalasp@yahoo.com and put "Expression Writing" in the subject line and I'll be sure to send you the request.

Thanks!

I Mean This...

God is always on time. There is not one time I can say He has let me down. He loves me!

4th of July

Okay it's the 4th of July 2009... the day of the fireworks! I've been up since 4a cst this morning getting my day started.

-Not BBQ'ing
-Not firing up a grill
-Not seasoning meats
-Not preparing potato salad
-Not calling relatives
-Not getting wardrobe together
-Not fixing baked beans

WORKING!!! Yes! I scheduled myself to work on the 4th of July. But I scheduled myself from 5-9a cst so that I can get off early enough to enjoy the day with my children. I didn't have to work at all but there is money to be made. I can't wait to see what type of day we'll have. I was told it's against the law to pop fireworks in my new city but I guess we can go to a fireworks show.

All I know is this is a day that I will lay back & relax with my kiddos and enjoy the day and the sounds. As far as fireworks... don't know yet but we'll see.

Be safe!

Talking about...

Just got up and am getting the girls ready for camp and waiting on my son to get ready to. I have a long work day ahead of me today. It's the 4th of July weekend and we have NOTHING planned. I was told by my neighbors that it's against the law to pop fireworks here in the city of Dallas but it was like that back home in Oklahoma but people stilled popped them. She said you have to go outside of Dallas to even buy them so I don't know if that'll be happening.

I had a long day to work tomorrow but forgot that it was the 4th so kept my 5-9a hours and gave back the rest because I don't know how loud it will be around here. I guess we'll have hot dogs tomorrow with chips and drinks. I'm going to find something for us to do.

My girls will be leaving going to Kileen, Tx on Monday or next Wednesday. I'm taking them to their aunt's house for the rest of the summer. They just got home on the 29th of May but now want to go visit their other family. I'm really going to miss them but before they were 4 hrs away and now they'll only be 2 hrs away. My son is saying he's going to be super happy because he'll be the only one home and I guess he thinks he'll be spoiled to death. He's 15.. shooot he needs to be spoiling me. LOL, LOL

Well, gotta go for now. Have to work!
