Exhaling


 Yeah Baby Yeah!!!
 

 
 
Hey! Hey! Hey!....What an awesome awesome nite I had....We WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  was the best thing ever...So far our team is 10 and 0..not one lost yet....It has been like over 10 years since our little school has done this...
 
You know what is funny...My eldest graduated from there a year ago and the middle son is not there yet..not until next year...so I don't even have a child there...LOL..But it is my school..I graduated from there and I know all my sons in the end will have finished up there...I do know other kids there though...and I know that those kids..our kids in this little public school really and truly needed this moral boost...
 
The school they beat last nite was also an undefeated team.. a team that has always beat them year after year and I don't mean by a few points they have slaughtered them year after year as so did other schools...But this team has always been like one of the best teams all round...always the best...and for our school to win this game and not by a fluke of a point but by 9 points...Doesn't sound like much?...well let me tell you it was fantastic!!!!!!  it was the greatest game...Both teams gave their all...their best...both teams played beautifully....
 
It was not that I wanted the other kids on the other team to be hurt and that I wanted to brag..but yeah of course I will a little LOL..but it was an honor to be able to win over them....
 
Let me tell you...there was so much pride behind these guys...both teams had their bleachers full..many people were standing....we were lucky...since my son was in the band when he was there and we always helped out with the driving of the band trailer...we followed them there and got to sit with them...and I mean right in one little space..but at least I got to sit...well when I did sit...LOL...I thank God the wind was not blowing..because it was cold...we had our coats and blankets there to help keep warm...
 
Well to tell about the game itself...the other team made the first touchdown..but we didn't let that go on for long..we in turn made our touchdown...this kept on we were neck in neck with each other....it seem that the other team was going to beat us by 4 points....we finally had that ball and was trying so hard to get that touch down in the fourth quarter and with like 3 mins on the clock....It seemed as though there was always something stopping the game...a flag here and a flag there...people were yelling and cheering...I finally just standing there holding my hands together kept praying "please God..Please God..let those kids get this touchdown...Please, they need it...and I want it so bad...not sure why exactly...then in someway I did know..for my sons...for my nephew who went there only for a few years while living with me and he played for them and now he died at 20 years old...I wanted it for all of them....." Yeah, I know that is not something you really should take God's time up for...but you know what...God knows me..and I do believe he understands me well enough to know where I am coming from...
 
Well, He gave it to them...they got it...they got that touchdown...Yeah....I just kept thanking God...I did it with my voice and I did it in signlanguage...we now were ahead by 3points with 55seconds on the clock....I figured we had it in the bag...another person said that anything could happen within those seconds...that we had lost a game with only 6 seconds before...so I just kept praying please don't let it happen that way...let these guys keep their win....
 
We were all on the edge of our sits or shall I say standing on edge..LOL....Both those teams were awesome...fighting with everything they had...the other team had that ball...and were getting close to their side of the field...with like 30 to 40 seconds left on that clock...the other team threw that ball for a run...well as they threw that ball one of our home team players intercepted that ball...yeah that is right he caught that ball before the other team could get it...and that is not all he did...He ran with it as fast as he could and guess what.......He made another TOUCHDOWN!!!!!!  Yeah!!!! You should have seen me and all our supporters...I was so excited...I was jumping up and down screaming....I was in totally awe...grabbing my middle son and hugging and yelling..I was thanking God again...I couldn't believe it...I really wanted them to win....and they did!!!!! 
 
Those guys were so excited....they had done it...they broke the loosing streak that the school has had for over 10 or more years...they did it and let me tell you each supporter there was cheering them on and congratulating them....
 
Oh by the way my eldest son who is in college..he was there to see it...he came in for this game and he too was so excited...I was so proud of for all of them.....
 
I called so many people to let them know about it and I know they all thought I was crazy...but I was just so excited....I was on such a high....Not a drug high..LOL...But a Life High...which is the best kind....well...it wore me out...I think this is just what I needed..for when I got home..I sat around about a half hour and then I sneaked off to my bed and before you knew it I was out and I slept so good...couldn't believe it....been a while since I did that...God surely gave me peace last nite....

 Just another day in SammyJo's life
 

 
Today is one of the most beautiful days...The sun is shining so gorgeous and yes so cold that my bones want to run and hide, lol lol, but still a gorgeous day...
 
I have to say though yesterday was a trying day...when I left my home to go get the kids from school twice and I mean 2 different locations and 2 different vehicles within 5 mins of each other almost hit my truck....first one not watching what he was doing was headed straight toward me, the other one a truck decided as I got to where he was waiting to turn, to take a chance and jump out in front of me...I almost died,,I think he did do..I was so proud of myself...I didn't use any fowl language or gestures yeah for meeeeeeee....but I did get upset though, who wouldn't...
It will be 1year the week before Christmas that I have been having my truck.....I know I am not supposed to adore any material items...but. I waited so long to get my truck well my SUV....many many years waiting for it and now I have it I want to keep it in good condition and besides It has too last me for a long long long time...LOL...I am a poor poor Gal....LOL LOL
 
But, I did survive the road racing and made my way to work...which as usual was busy busy many people seem to have money to spend these days...I don't know where they get it but they sure spend it...well some do, some like to steal a lot...and people are so spoiled and have no respect for anything now days...They come into the store and they just tear things up...Sometimes I understand why other countries don't like us as Americans...We take too much for granted...we have so much to choose from and we just don't appreciate that...Oh, now please don't get me wrong...I am by no means approving the bad things that some do to our country...no no no...just want to make that clear..incase someone thinks that I don't love my country and my fellow people...Whew that is another long log blog....which I don't think I ever want to write...
 
Does that sound like I had a bad day???? well guess what?? it really wasn't a bad day, just another day that we all live...and so glad to have lived it...I came out in one piece and so did my family...Praise the Lord....
 
Thank you God that I do have that truck to be able to dodge traffic, and thank you for that job where I see so many different spoiled but yet still your people, and thank you for being able to come home to a home and rest my weary bones...and to be able to kiss my beautiful kids goodnite and my hubby...and thank you God for having this computer to be able to find my new friends who are in you...Thank you for my life and most of all thank you Jesus for giving up something so precious...so I may have everlasting life in paradise.....Amen....
 
I know I know I ramble on and on but hey that is just me...well that was just yesterday..today started off really well..I actually went to bed a little earlier than normal....so it helped me out this morning..not as tired...I needed to rest up...tonite is that big game for our little town...We are going cheer them on tonite...I sure hope we win again...so for we have won all our games and if we can win again tonite then we are in the playoff with a big head start...It would be great if we could make it to the Dome...It has been a long long time since we did that..Shoot it has been to many years since we actually win games lol lol...Well say a little pray for SammyJo's home team to win tonite....
 
OK then I will stop my jabbering and now I will leave a couple of PICS from around my house to show how beautiful today really is...Appreciate all that you have no matter what it is..Everything is precious........

 Home for the Winter...Not...
 

OK, now I understand why that little creature was running around my clothes basket the other nite....What creature...lol...that little fuzzy, long tail, whiskery fast running MOUSE...He knew that cold weather was on its way, so he made sure to find a nice warm cozy home to live in with lots of junk to hid from the tenants...LOL...
 
We have been having our mobile home now for about 4 years, it was brand new..so there were no special places for them little suckers to get in...I was so happy I had never seen one in all those years...But..of course that little joy is gone now...I was just a sitting at my computer typing away and noticed from the corner of my eye..a movement...we have animals but this movement was really small..I thought naaa no way...then I saw it move again and got up to see and sure enough..that little whiskery pest took off running into my pantry...he was just a baby so that means Mom and Dad are not far behind...
 
I need to go buy some traps to make that little fellow go bye bye..I don't mean to be cruel about it....but..I sure don't want him biting my little one or passing any diseases to my family...so I must do what has to be done...or shall I say I will get the hubby to do it...LOL...
 
Oh, yeah....my point of it all is that this morning it was Brrrrrrrrrr cold outside...felt good though.....I guess maybe we will have a winter after all...who knows...I just know that we are in the month of Nov and that means the hurricane season is almost done...Praise the Lord..so far no hurricanes on the home front.....

 Just a Walkin and a Talkin
 

 
 
What in the world am I feeling at this moment??  Who really knows...LOL...I think I may be one of those people who are just a walkin on the street just a talkin to themselves...never on the same subject, never knowing what they want...LOL...one moment you happy one moment you are angry and the next your are just a cryin....I know most can relate...
 
No, No, I am not angry, nor cryin, I am just a thinkin...Read a few blogs and so can relate to them...
 
I am late with getting the younger son ready for bed, I just finished up about 20 min ago with the bath and then the prayers...Tonite the 14 year old came in and joined in on the prayer...It is a child's prayer simple but yet enough to learn about God.. I sorta changed some words because I really don't think a 5 year old really wants to hear about if I should die....This is how we say the prayer:
"Now I lay me down to sleep I pray the Lord my soul to keep and for the Angels to watch over me all nite long...."
Then of course we go on to say God bless ??????? and let me tell you he has it down..If he makes a mistake and say the wrong name in the wrong order he has to start over, lol...
 
Now with the 14 year old, yesterday and today went pretty smoothly..I got some good advice from some of my fellow bloggers..which I will surely put to use....one such word of wisdom was a reminder that he too is a child and still needs caring for..I think I forget that at times...not meaning too but it does happen...another word of wisdom was to let him tell me how he feels about things and for me to let him know how proud I am of him and not to let him think that he can never measure up, that he is good enough, and that I appreciate him for all that he does...  I know all these things but tend to forget with the hurrying life situations and it is good to be reminded of them...I really love this kid as do I love all my boys..
 
Sometimes I am afraid of how much I love them, that it will do more harm than good..That God may not like me loving them too much, for at times I tend to put them before him and I know that he God must be first then family....
 
Anyways, like I said I am like that person walking on the street jumping from one subject to the next, lol lol...
I got to chat with my eldest son online today, it was fun, we clowned around and then later he called me on the phone...He is coming home on Friday because we have an important football game happening and the whole town is just on edge about it....This little town really needs this win, they need their morals boosted so much the kids that is, oh heck us adult too, lol....anyway, he told me that he would like to BBQ on Saturday, if I would get some things for him to do this..I was surprised at this...He told me he really would like to put to use some of the things he is learning at school...You see, I don't know if I ever said before, but my son is going to college to become a Chef....
 
So, I told him that would be great, I would get some things for him to prepare and to cook...shoots, it is nice to have someone else do the cooking, lol...And I must say he does a good job at it too...Not to brag...LOL..
 
Here I go a walkin and a talkin on another subject, lol
Hubby and I seem to be getting along better also...little by little we are getting on the same page...Not the full page but a beginning...I am reaching out to him for help with the kids especially the 14 year old..I don't like always being the bad guy not that I want him to be the bad guy, but, when it is all on your back you tend to turn out bad...you see I really don't trust my husband too much, it's not about fooling around, it is just plain old trust in many things of our lives..There are more times than not that he has been unreliable...
 
It is hard to believe that we actually stayed married now for 21 years....LOl...Don't get me wrong, I really fell in love with this man years ago...and I know it is still there but buried deep....I think I will save that one for another blog, lol lol.....
 
OK, here I go a walkin again, lol lol...Just had to say that hubby's mouth is doing better and younger son is doing much better also...I though all of sudden tonite while giving my son a bath really got weak as though I had the flu or just really worn out....That is prob. what it is...WORN OUT.....
 
Well, I guess I will call it quits for now, because I could run on and on and on and on....LOL LOL but, the page may not hold it...lol lol....Like a fellow blogger said..this is a great reminder for me in the future to come back and see how much things change and not to make the same mistakes....I really liked what she said so I just had to drop it in there....
Good nite or Good Morning and God Bless Ya
