May Fest

Wow, I am so excited. I am going to May Fest this afternoon when I get off work. I am at work right now and kind of feeling tired. I didn't go to sleep till after 11:30 p.m. Nothing is happen' at work at the current moment, so, it's VERY quiet and slow. Oh well, I will survive as I look towards the excitement that this afternoon holds for me.
I will write more later, I'm sure.

For now...CIAO

Prayer Request

Hi everyone, please pray for my grandma.  She is in ICU today.  Her heart was beating awkwardly and they tried to get it to pump correctly today, but her heart stopped in the process.  The dr.'s got it started back and they are thinking about putting a pacemaker in place.  They aren't really sure how long she'll live at this point, so, I think they're waiting to see how she'll do.  She hasn't done what the dr.'s have told her and she won't buy food that is good for her.  I'm not saying it's her fault, but she hasn't exactly helped the situation either. 

 

I thank you for the prayers and I'll keep the updates coming.

 

Love,

Kimberly

 

p.s. those of you who heard about new niece, she is doing very well!  She's at home and gaining weight.

Grillin' Out!

Last night was so much fun. My best friend (Julie) and her dog (Cassie) came out from North Arlington to see me. We started off our adventure by going to Trinity Trails (Bellaire/Hulen St.). We were there for about 2 hrs. We went to one side of the trails and let the dogs swim. Cassie was a little hesitant at first, but I took my shoes off and took her in with me. She started having fun after she got used to the H2O. After that, we went to the other side of the trail and let Kodiak run free. There were alot of other dogs on that side and Cassie got to run free too. They had SOO much fun. Of course, all of a sudden, the 2 hrs. past very quickly. We were really hungry and still hadn't got the grill going. So, we left the park and came back. I got the grill goin' and Julie got the Guacomole dip done. We grilled chicken and hot dogs. IT was soooo very good.

After we ate, we ate Spiderman popsicles! YUMMY. We also watched the movie Tuck Everlasting. That's a different movie, but not too bad. It was kind of funny.

Anyways, that's all for now. Julie, I had a LOT of fun last night. Love you girl.

Job

Praise the Lord!

I heard from the company that I interviewed with last Fri. that I officially did get the job. He had called me on Fri. night to offer me the position. I took it of course. He told me that he was going to quickly check my references and he would call me Mon. or Tues. Well, guess what, I just got off the phone with him and my references were great! They all spoke very highly of me.

The great thing about the new job is that I get health insurance. I really had to find a job that would offer that b/c now that I am going to be taking a break from school, I won't have insurance anymore. Needless to say, God answered my prayers.

I'll tell you though, I was very broken last week when my mom and I were praying together. I did not know what God wanted me to do and then I found the job in the paper, applied, and got the job. He had to really take me to a low point before He showed me what to do next.

I am soo excited about moving. I'll be close to all my long time friends and my family. My best friend is moving out to Frisco (about 20 min. away from me) in the middle of May, right after I move. I am moving (as of right now) on May 3rd.

Well, that is all for now, I need to go and get ready for the day.

God Bless You!!



To look at the place I'll be working, click on the link of above. Go to Career and I am the Sales Support Assistant.

Here is Kodiak at Easter. She got a ducky. He's already had to endure minor surgery. She has eaten off one of his legs. Poor thing. 

Here is my nephew Caleb feeding Caitlyn, his baby sister. 

Hail & tornados

I'd have to say, I just got out of the tub b/c there sirens going off over here for tornados. I thought it was safe to get out, but as soon as I got out, another siren went off. I turned the TV on and I listened to what they were saying. There was a little bit of a rotation and lowering of the clouds about 5 miles from me. I had just gone through the storm and I had dime size and a little bigger hail. Kodiak was looking around trying to figure out what was going. When I called her and we went into the bathroom, she just followed like a good girl. She got in the tub quickly and we sat down with our pillows. Can't ever be too careful. Especially with the storms around here, you know?
Storms are over now and it's very pretty outside. The sky is clear and blue.
Maybe I'll take Kodiak to the park now. All warnings are over, I think. Of course, storms can come on very quickly w/o warning. I guess I'll watch the Weather Channel for a moment and see what's going on outside.
Well, I have more to write later, but that's all for now.

Later!

The Eagle has landed!!!!

Okay ya'll, so, this is definitely really funny between Beth and I. We were on the phone this morning (she works in security and I work in guest housing) while we were in our respective buildings and this girl comes into her office and says," there is an eagle outside and it's getting attacked by black birds." Well, last time I checked, we didn't have any Eagles just hangin' out at Seminary. Maybe they came to get some education! haha
So, the funny thing for the day is.............THE EAGLE HAS LANDED!!

Have a great day all! I can't wait to hear what you got to say about this Beth.

Good Morning

Good Morning,
The sunrise was very pretty this morning. I got to see it while I was opening this morning.......very pretty. Even though it is early getting up, at least I am blessed by getting to see the wonderful creation of our Lord. Like someone said the other day, how can you look around and not know there is a God? It's amazing to me that people think all this beauty just arised w/o the help of God.
It's sad to me that people miss out on the wonder and splender of God and knowing Him. I'm so glad that I believe, it gives me so much hope. Without hope, where would we be?
Hate to end this, but I need to work now. I've got some things to do.

B Class

Today was an exciting day for Kodiak and I. We graduated from A Class to B Class last week......how exciting!! Anyways, we learned the command down, left-about turn, and we toned our turns. We worked for 1 1/2 hours, normally only 1 hour. Needless to say, Kodiak was tired and ready for a BIG drink of water when we were done. We didn't have time today to go to QT and get a White Cherry Freezoni, but that's okay. H2O was better for us anyways.......(c:
Well, I am at work now, so, I'll write more later. I am anticipatin the arrivals of the Trustees of SWBTS anytime now.

Have a great day!

Parents gone

I spoke with my mom today and they are enjoying being down in New Orleans with my uncles. They took one uncle down and the other uncle lives there. I got to talk with my aunt yesterday as well. I just absolutely love her! Her name is Teri. I wish I saw her more, but she did tell me that I should drive down this summer with Kodiak and go and visit them for a few days. Maybe I'll just take her up on that offer. Works for me! I love road trips. Anyone who would like to go, give me a call....(c:
Question 1: How in the world do you add other people's blogs to your own blog? (short-cut)
Question 2: How do you find others' blogs? I want to see if I know other people on here and I can't figure out how to do so.
Those are the only 2 questions I have for now, but please someone help me out! I am still learning, but I can't figure it out. Thanks!!!
Signing off for now, unless something else comes to mind in a matter of minutes......OVER.

BEAUTIFUL

Wow, today has been an absolutely lovely day. I was out on the Trinity Trails today and gosh it was nice. I met an older couple while out there and talked with them while our dogs played together. I also saw my normal people who are out there with their dogs as well. The wind was blowing just right and the temp. was just right also. Thank you God for a beautiful day!
I am now at work, but I am soo happy that there are windows in the LDC that I can look out and still enjoy the beautiful day. I would rather be outside, but at least I still get to see it. I don't know what I would do if I were in a room with no windows. Probably go crazy!! haha

New neighbor

Hello for anyone who read this. I have a prayer request. I feel a need to start praying for this lady that I just met today. She has moved in a floor above me. I was outside with Kodiak and her little girls were petting Kodiak. She came over and we began to chat a little bit. I asked her what her job was and she told me that she was a dancer (a.k.a. stripper). I was a little shocked b/c I'd have to say, I don't know many "dancers." I would really like to begin to talk her a little bit about Christ b/c I don't know where she stands, but I assume, not a christian. Please pray that God will give me opportunities to talk with her. I would love to ask her if I could take her little girls to church, but since she doesn't know me, I'm thinking that will be no. However, all things are possible. So please pray b/c I really feel a burden about this situation. I can't wait to move, but I really hope that her and I get another chance to talk b-4 the move date. I'll keep an update going on. Thank you!

ANGEL FOOD CAKE
BROWNIES
LEMON MERINGUE
VANILLA CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE ICING
STRAWBERRY SHORT CAKE
CHOCOLATE ON CHOCOLATE
ICE CREAM
CARROT CAKE

NO. You can't change your mind once you scroll down! So think carefully what your choice will be!
OK - Now that you've made your choice, this is what research says about
you!


ANGEL FOOD CAKE
Sweet, loving, cuddly. You love all warm and fuzzy items. A little nutty at times. Sometimes you need an ice cream cone at the end of the day.
Others perceive you as being childlike and immature at times.

BROWNIES
You are adventurous, love new ideas, and are a champion of Underdogs and a slayer of dragons. When tempers flare up, you whip out your saber. You are
always the oddball with a unique sense of humor and direction. You tend to be very loyal.

LEMON MERINGUE
Smooth, sexy &articulate with your hands, you are an excellent after-dinner
speaker and a good teacher. But don't try to walk and chew gum at the
same time. A bit of a diva at times, but you have many friends.

VANILLA CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE ICING
Fun-loving, sassy and humorous. Not very grounded in life; very
indecisive and lack motivation. Everyone enjoys being around you, but you are a practical joker. Others should be cautious in making you mad. However, you are a friend
for life.

STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE
Romantic, warm, loving. You care about other people and can be counted on in a pinch. You tend to melt. You can be overly emotional and annoying at times.

CHOCOLATE ON CHOCOLATE
Extremely sexy and always ready to give as well as receive. You are
very creative, adventurous, ambitious, and passionate. You can appear to have a cold exterior but in actuality you are very warm on the inside. You are not afraid to take chances. You will not settle for anything average in life. You enjoy laughing.

ICE CREAM
You like sports, whether it be baseball, football, basketball or soccer. If you
could, you would like to participate, but you enjoy watching sports. You don't like to give up the remote control. You tend to be self-centered and high maintenance.

CARROT CAKE
You are a very fun loving person, who likes to laugh. You are fun to be with.
People like to hang out with you. You are a very warm hearted person and a little quirky at times. You have many loyal friends.

Spring Break

Spring break has come and gone for me. I was off last week and I actually work the week of spring break. I had a good time on my break though. I went to Branson, MO with my family and some friends of ours. We went and saw the show, Lost in the 50's. Very good show!! We rode the ducks and got a really great tour of the city. We swam (indoor pool), relaxed, walked around, shopped, etc. We stayed in the cutest cabin. Gosh I wish I could afford to buy one. I really liked it alot and enjoyed the serene environment. I'm already ready to go back and I've only been back 36 hours.....(c: Well, I am going to go for now b/c I am tired, but I'll try to write more later!

Good night

Spring Break

Hello Everyone,
I am really excited. I start my spring break on Tues. March 8th at 7 p.m. (that's what time I get off work) Then, I'm going back to my apartment, grab my doggy, and drive to Fairview, TX. (that's where my parents live) On Wednesday morning, my mom, me, my uncle, his care-taker: Elvis, Sammie and Lindy (twins) are going to Branson, MO for a few days. We'll be back on Monday night because I am working on that Tues. the 15th. My dad is being very sweet by watching, my dog (Kodiak) and their 2 dogs (Sampson & Josephine) and 1 bird (Star). Thanks Dad!!! I am looking forward to a nice relaxing time and just gathering my thoughts about life in general. We might go to a few shows while we're up there, but who knows. We're going to be staying in a cabin, very cool, and I am very excited about that too.
What is everyone else doing?

Have a great day!

Thank you

I appreciate all the prayers that have gone up.  Christy is doing better and they have her on some new heart medicine.  She will hopefully be released from the hospital tomorrow sometime.  The baby did move finally yesterday, so, she is doing well.  Again, thank you for the prayers.  If anything changes, I'll send out another e-mail when I can.

 

Love,

Kimberly

My trip to Maryland

I went to Maryland this past weekend and had a great trip. There was snow on the ground which was very cool to see. When my nephew and I were flying into the airport in Philly, there was a blanket of snow everywhere! It was pretty and cold. We first flew into Philly and then got on a little plane from Philly to Salisbury, MD. We arrived in MD at 12:30 a.m. and we were very tired. For my nephew only being 3 1/2 years old, he did a great job and didn't complain once. The reason we arrived so late is because we were stuck in Philly because there was no one there to load the bags. Finally, they got them loaded and we were off for our quick trip of 30 min. from 1 airport to the next. We finally arrived, but guess what..........not our bags. They were left. They finally got delivered to us the next night. (Sat. night) (I was leaving on Sun.) Thank goodness that my brother and I are basically the same size. He gave me PJ's and then jeans the next day. My nephew almost cried b/c he thought that they weren't going to bring our bags and he wouldn't get his Rescue Hero toys. He was SOOOOO happy to see his bag when they got delivered and so was I for that matter. (c: We went to Ocean City on Sat. and had a good time. It was a little chilly, but we got these good french fries from Thrashers. They put vinegar on their FF on the East Coast, so, that's what we had for lunch. Very tasty! I never had thought about FF w/ vinegar until about 5 years ago when my brother moved up there. It sure is good though. Then on Sat. night we went to Ray's Shanty (seafood) and I got a yummy crab cake. They are soo good up there too. I love seafood too, so, I was in heaven! After that, we went home and just hung around the house and watched CSI. Sun. we went to church, ate lunch, got packed, and then my brother took me to the airport to go back to Dallas. I arrived safely into Philly, but then I was an hour late leaving there b/c one of the pilot's seat belts were broken, so, they finally got that fixed and we were off. It was rather bumpy on the way back, but nothing too major. I was glad to be back.
So, that's how my weekend was. Not too eventful besides getting my nephew safely back to MD. My dad was going to take him, but Caleb (my nephew) wanted his KK to take him home. (KK=Kimberly) Yeah, a success story. (c:
Anyways, I will be closing for now.

Prayer Request

Good Morning!  My mom just called me and told me that my brother was on his way to the hospital.  My sister-in-law, who is pregnant, is having heart problems and they have her on medicine to keep her heart beating regularly.  She has been passing out with the medicine because it is dropping her blood pressure down and she is passing out.  I am not sure how many times she has passed out, but quite a few.  Definitely not good for a growing baby.  Christy has not felt the baby kick today, so, please pray for the baby and for Christy.  Hopefully we'll know something soon.  Thank you for your prayers!  I appreciate it.

Kodiak's Accomplishment

I am soo proud of my dog, Kodiak. On Sun. afternoons we go to dog training in Benbrook. Well, today, the owner told me that she is doing so well, he thinks I should eventually enter her into a competition. What an honor. I am in the process of now getting her registered from the people who gave her to me. Thank you Mr. Dobson for the encouraging words of competition. I knew she was a good girl and hopefully some day she'll get to enter into a contest for doggies. We have been in training for 5 wks. and look at what we've accomplished!!!! I have looked into SAR (search and rescue) and hopefully we can do this as well. She has a knack for learning and I enjoy teaching her. It takes patience, but it's definitely building mine!
Congratulations Kodiak!
