The woes of having a small room...

Good evening blogging people,
Here I am at my kitchen table, in my pj's, on my very "cool" laptop thinking about what to blog. It's been a while since I've blogged one of my famous rambling blogs and I thought tonight was as good a night as any to write one.

You need to understand, my room is small! Now, speaking as a girl who had to share a room with her sister for twelve or so years. I was very happy when we moved and I was able to have my own bedroom. BUT...the catch is this... my bedroom is adjacent to Carole's so you have to go through mine to get to hers, which is not too bad. My complaint is this, though. I have no room.

I have had this room for five years, almost six. It's been my room for all my high school years and one junior high year. It's been through a lot with me (lol...)but, I have a full sized bed, two dressers, two night stands, a desk, a jewelry thing and little odds and ends. I think since this coming Fall will mark my second year of not being in school, starting a business and being the big 20!! I should have a change.

Not my wall paper I love my wall paper. It's purple flowers with Thomas Kinkade border. (Not his face, his paintings) lol...But, I am thinking on a twin bed so that will give me more room and maybe only one night stand. I may have to 86 some of my stuffed animals and change a few things to make my room look like an adult is living in it.

If you have any suggestions or any cool, cheap ways for me to change my room around, I am all ears (or in the blog world) all eyes. Even if you have any websites or anything I am really into room decorating right now. I want any help I can get. Thanks!

Tagged again!

Post rules before giving the facts2. Players start with eight random facts/habits about themselves3. People who are tagged need to write their own blog about their eight things and post these rules.4. At the end of the your blog you need to tag some people and list their names. Leave them a comment on their blog, telling them they have been tagged and not to forget to read your blog.





1.Ginger is only a nickname. My real name is Virginia Sue. I was named after both my grandmothers. Mimi is Sue and my dad's mom was Virginia but she had gone to be with the Lord before I was born.



2. I can't stand chicken. It is disgusting!! The blood, the fat and bones are not appealing to me at all!lol..



3. My eyes are green but when I wear different colors they change. (Green, Grey and blue.)


4.I can't stand the northern winters. I love the summers though. Beaches and flip flops are more fun than sledding and shoveling. Not that I shovel! lol


5. My best friend is a missionary in another country.


6. I can not stand dogs!! I am a cat person.


7. When I was nine I fell off my bunk bed and split my ear open.


8. I went to a private Christian school for the first six years of my school life and then was home schooled till I graduated.


Now it's my turn to tag...

It's Carole!!!

Hi, as you can see from the title I am not Ginger. Ginger had writer's block and so I had to rescue her from her dilemma.



Today I was talking to Ginger's best friend Susie and she was telling me how I should write on her blog. I said "I think so too." I asked Susie what I should write about and she was no help at all! She said I should write about Ginger or a rock from our old church parking lot.



I thought you may be totally bored about those two topics. So really, I am not sure what I am going to write about!!



To tell you the truth I am not a writer,or a reader..either of those things...I'd rather take pics or draw,or TALK...I love to talk. I am a big talker...you can ask Ginger anytime...I even talk in my sleep, sometimes!!..sad but true.



I am also very clumsy...but that's not a talent or anything...lol.....I am always falling.....I sprained my ankle 3 times in my life,I have fallen down the stairs hundreds of times. I had the chicken pocks two times in my life. I got a motorcycle burn once by standing too close to a motorcycle when I was nine.I was seeing how high I could kick in the store once and fell right on my butt and bounced right back up...(it was really something to see)...When I was 5 I was dancing on the toilet and fell and split my head on the radiator.So I guess you could say I am very active...and I also speak my mind...lol....you can ask anyone that.



I guess you can tell that me and Ginger are very different but we are also very close!!!! Well I am done sooooo....I want every one who reads this to comment on it!!!! LOL....OK?? Really now!!!!!! Well Bye Bye,

Carole,Brown eyes,Carrie,Bub,Caa, ( I forgot to say I have lots of nick names)

I have been tagged!

I just found out I was tagged a few days ago and I didn't see it. This is new for me so I hope I do okay. I am supposed to write five things about why I love God.

1. I love God because he saw me and instead of turning his head, he sent his only son Jesus to die on the cross for me.

2. When I'm alone in the dark, when there is no one else there and I need a warm embrace, I feel His arms around me.

3. When fear is the worst enemy I could think of, at a moment's notice,I think of God's word. Psalms 56:3

4. The unknown can be a scary thing. But, when I just put my trust in God the fear just disappears.

5.John 3:16

Okay, I hope I did the links right. I am still learning!

Happy Birthday to me!

I am going to keep this real short.I am so tired and need to get up in the morning for church. I had a great birthday. Mackenzie and her younger sister, Maddie and her dad came over for cake and to watch me open my gifts. My family and I had Chinese food for my birthday dinner and we had a variety of cheese cakes and eclairs for dessert.

I got hair things and lots of clothes and jewelery. I also received Cd's and other cool stuff. I have to say though, my best gift was getting to see my Mimi!!! She gave me the most adorable Ashton Drake doll. Her name is Emmy and she is so cute!!!

I am going to go to bed. Please pray for our safety when we head back to our home tomorrow night.Thanks!

Mimi's house!

Welcome to my Mimi's house. Here I am whacking my Mimi's Grab It (But it's really not that brand it's a generic) from my sister. I am lying on my bed in the "doll room." (Me and my sister affectionately named it when we were little girls. lol...My Mimi just took the grab it thing from Carole. I guess she didn't like Carole pulling my hair with the thing!lol...

So anyhow I am so tired. It's two in the morning here. I should really go to bed. Oh, I got my hair cut today. Hopefully when my other PC is back up I'll show you some pictures. It's layered and have a little bit of bangs. It was another early birthday gift.

I am having a lot of fun here. I came down with Mackenzie's family yesterday and my family arrived early this evening. My Mimi was surprised to see me and it was so fun to surprise her a day early.

I don't know what we are going to do tomorrow but, I am sure it will be great! Then on Sunday we are going to my old church. It's having an anniversary celebration. So that will be interesting.

Okay, I am drooping right now I need some rest!! lol...I will try to stop by tomorrow.
