30 Day Challenge Days 9-15

OK, so I just made the executive decision to combine some of these daily challenges.  Why?  Because I'm getting a little tired of writing two posts every day.  And also, because I just don't know if I have 30 days in me.

That's the story of my life.  I start a lot of crap and I never finish it.

Anyway, on to the challenge question things:

Day 9-A picture of your friends
Well that's easy enough.  Besides my friends that are my family, I have a little group of girl friends that I have known since about grade school.  So since we are all 40 this year (!), we have been getting together a lot to celebrate birth days.



Steph, Amy, Val, Diane, Patty, Heather and Holly

Day 10-Something you're afraid of
Oh gosh, it is safe to say that I am afraid of a lot of things... I am afraid of bad guys stealing my kids, one of my kids getting hit by a car,  me hitting a kid with my car, my husband getting in an accident while texting and driving his car, someone bullying my kids, failure, seeing people that I haven't seen in a long time, also I am afraid of sharks and swimming at night.   I know I am leaving out a ton of things here.




Day 11-Favorite TV shows
Oh sheesh.  Do I have a lot of favorites?  Yes, yes I do.  In no particular order:  House, Biggest Loser, Survivor, Survivor Man, Greys, VAMPIRE DIARIES, The Mentalist, Big Love, Dexter, Amazing Race, Pawn Stars, American Pickers, Nurse Jackie.  Shoot.  There are definitely more and I am drawing a blank.

Day 12-What you believe
I believe that there are more good people than bad.  I believe that forgiving is hard and forgetting is harder. I believe that we are here for a reason. I believe that I am stronger than I look.  I believe that what comes around goes around.  I believe that you are responsible for your own happiness.  I believe that you need to make peace with your past so you can enjoy your present. 



Day 13-Goals
One of my long term goals is to complete an unfinished book.  I also want to get back into foster parenting.  I have a huge goal to get healthier, like right now.


Day 14-A picture you love
Oh man.  I have an abundance of pictures that I love.  Here are a few in particular:

i heart him
my boys
Meggie
Me and my first baby
Little Blondie
Brenna and Meg dressing up

Big brother... again
Alex with a squirrel on his leg
Taking a "Nanny break"
sleeping
Meg
Kara singing at a wedding


Day 15-Bible verse

Hm.  To be honest with you, I really don't know a lot of bible verses by heart except for the common ones.  But I don't like to be common. I do like this one:

Galatians 5:22-23
What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?

and this:

1 Corinthians 16:13


Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong.

  1. Great pix Jess, very nice posting. I would've been afraid of that potentially rabid squirrel but I guess Alex wasn't. Where's Uncle Chris, you need a picture of him on your blog to really drive readership to new levels!
