Why spend money on what is not bread; your wages for what fails to satisfy?

Proverbs 29:4

By justice a king gives stability to the land; but he who imposes heavy taxes ruins it.

Philippians 2:14-15

"Do everything without grumbling or questioning that you may be blameless and innocent children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine like lights in the world."

Leviticus 25:10

"This fifteenth year you shall make sacred by proclaiming liberty in the land for all its inhabitants."

in mere mortals powerless to save.

Bible verse of the week

Acts 17:26:

He made from one the whole human race to dwell on the entire surface of the earth, and he fixed the ordered seasons and the boundaries of their regions...

Now I have to memorize it.  :) silly history.

Hello Fuzz Balls!!!!!!

Yeah, so I felt the need to blog.  Not that I have anything to blog ABOUT.  But, you know, I'll find something interesting to talk about.

So I've been reading my friend R's blog some and I keep finding inspirational tidbits everywhere on it!  Check this quote out:

Don’t you know, child, that even when you’re angry, discouraged, jealous, bitter, hopeless, annoyed, and mean, I still love you? I can understand you, so look at Me now, and ignore all the things the world is showing you. They’re not important, but you are important to Me. I will always be with you. You’re not alone.


great, right?  And then it even has that one quote from The Help that goes:


"You is kind
You is smart
You is important"



And I was scrolling around in it and I even found my #1 favorite Bible verse in Jeremiah.  But I can't remember the number...possibly 29:13 or something...Whatever.  It was just cool, so...Yeah, you should check out her blog.  Just click on my profile and click on the blog "He Loves Like a Hurricane" and it will take you there!


And then I saw a quote from one of Taylor Swift's songs: "All you wanted was to be wanted." love that quote.  I just love her stuff.  And Jamie-Grace.  Two really good singers.

Well, darn.  I can't really post an end picture because I'm not even blogging on my own computer.  I'm on my grandparent's computer now.  But the good news is that I can post a picture I drew of De Blob (the blob from a video game we once owned.)  The character looked kind of like this:

The yellow blob is the player.  The little gray things, I can't remember what they're called but I'm certain you can look it up for yourself if you'd like.  I only remember that if you roll over them with the blob, it frees them from being held captive by the bad guy.  And the spider-like thing, that's one of the bad guys on the game.  And the blob can change the colors of the buildings.  It was a fun game.  I finished it.  Before any of my siblings.  And then there was a Ratatouille game we had that I finished before my brother and sisters too, but that was all.

Now my brother is doing the happy dance because a baseball team just got a grand slam or something to that effect and now they have four points and the other team playing them has two points.

Not that I really care about sports, but baseball is interesting.  I had a friend who played softball.

Yeah...  I want to post more pictures now but this computer just has a bunch of junk.  See:

See what I mean?  Let's see...

actually, this cat is cute...oh, that's weird... hold on a second, oh, that's better.  My blog started making all my sentences links.  Silly Blogger.

I really don't have much to say here.  I think the art speaks for itself.  It says: "Beware!  I is a weird and scary being with a dangerous imagination!  Watch out!" or something like that.

I went to a ministry meeting at my church because I'm an alter server and they wanted me there.  I really didn't learn anything new that they hadn't taught me already when I went to the alter serving meeting the last time.  So basically it was a waste of time, but it was another one of those unpredictable moments that God sticks in my life.  One of my few friends I have at my church that actually talks to me (I'll call her Pikachu after her obsessive love of Pokemon), was there and she probably would have died of boredom if I didn't come.  We listened to them yak on and on, but we were very uninterested because most of what the guy speaking at meeting said either (a didn't have to do with alter servers or (b we'd already heard before.  So we were mostly making faces at each other and playing with our hands.  Then we started doing the llama song with our hands because we were running out of interesting things to do with ourselves.

So I guess I was there for a reason besides that they told me to come...LOL.

Well that's enough for now!

Here comes the Sun!

Ha ha!  That reminds me of this one sign I saw once!  It was sign for a church of some sort and it said:

"Weather forecast: God reigns, the Son shines"

So adorable.

So I saw Les Miserables last night.  We got the DVD from Netflix and watched half of it Thursday and the other half tonight.  It was spectacular!  Three words, Best Musical Ever!  The characters, cast, music... It was just awesome to watch it.

Blip Blip Blip Blip Blip Blip Blip Blip

Yeah, so I'm bored.  But I shouldn't feel bored.

I'm trying to finish reading The Help and label my blog posts.  I'm sure you've noticed that.  If you haven't, it's not that important of information.

I've also been writing, but you knew that.  Oh!  Today is May the fourth be with you!  We were planning on watching the third Star Wars movie...but our plans changed.  Yes, I still have not seen the third Star Wars movie.  I was too young to watch it the last time we tried to watch it together.  I think I could have handled it but I was just tired of my mom covering my eyes for half of it.  I want to watch the Dick Van Dyke Show.  Or Fractured Fairy tales.  But those are the shows that nobody else in my family likes except for my mother and me.

I feel like posting something funny I wrote.  It's from the story Diamond Gems that I was writing:

“Hey there, grizzly bear!” said the voice of a boy.  Both girls jumped, not expecting his intrusion.

“Harvey!  Don’t sneak up on me like that!” Diamond said, her face turning red.

“Jeez, sorry!” he said, “I just came to say hello to my favorite gem.” He puckered his lips for a quick kiss.  Diamond pushed his face away from hers.

“I don’t think so mister!  You know the rules at Youth Group.  No purpling.”

“Goodness.  Do you have to follow all of the rules?  Why not color outside the lines?”

“Maybe if the crayon was only pink; but my crayon isn’t going anywhere near your crayon and we both know that.”

“Okay, alright! I get it!  You don’t have to be so graphic about it!”

LOL.  Isn't it funny?  Okay, it probably isn't that funny...But I thought it was hilarious.

So I get to see Muppet tomorrow.  We're going to have a sleepover party thing and then in the morning I'm going to her church.  I guess she wanted to get back at me for when I brought her to my church.  But I probably posted that before.

But she's going to paint my nails like butterflies and cupcakes.  So I'll have to bring my camera to take pictures of them.  I don't think I've posted any pictures of my nails.  You probably are curious about how some of my nails turned out.  I can't show you all of them now because some photos are still on my camera but I can show you some of them. 

Let's see...

 Black and white stripes

Rainbow

 Black.  Notice that my toes are the same color and pattern.

Red and black french manicure thing

Red and black french manicure with white stripes

Awesome blue toes.  I think it's actually two different blues on top of each other

 Rainbow nails with black french manicure and rainbow toes with various intersecting stripes.  I ruined my right big toe's nail polish in this picture.  All of it was done by my friend Muppet's steady hand.  I had cute little presents for nails and a holly berry for Christmas on my nails.  I kept ruining my nails that night because we were watching the Nutcracker Prince that night and I kept falling asleep during that movie.

I'm going to Bodyflow with my family tonight.  YES!  My sister from college is HOME.  After that, I'm going to go spend some time at adoration.  Because you can't adore God enough, you know!  It's nice.  It's quiet and you can reflect on the past, your day, your family, your friends, you enemies.  It's kind of like meditating except the Lord is right there on the alter listening to your prayers.  Not that he isn't there any other time.  Because God is always listening.  I love Jeremiah 29:11-13.  Look it up for yourself.  Such inspiring words.

Have a Sunny day!

Writing and Singing

My goodness.  The songs I've been posting lately are SO catchy.  I'm turning on something less catchy....oh wait, that would be hard.  All the songs I have get stuck in my head.  But supposedly if you sing the words to Amazing Grace to the tune of Gilligan's Island it's supposed to help get songs out of your head.  Except for the fact that I don't know the tune to Gilligan's Island because I've never watched that show.  The trick also works the other way around too.  Not that I know the words to Gilligan's Island.

So, I wrote a little bit of something on Saturday:

                “Ha, ha!” said Diamond, “That kid can’t even remember her own name.  Watch!”  Diamond was an ordinary teenager except for the fact that her hair grew in an unnatural shade of blue.  She swore she had never touched a wig or hair dye in her life.

She had been introducing her friend, 

And that was all I got to writing this weekend because the next day was spent at my grandparent's house Skyping my sister at college, eating ice cream, helping my brother and our cousin finish a computer game we were making, and listening to Pride and Prejudice while coloring in a color book with 120 crayons.

Later there was Youth Group.  That was where and when I learned about this creepy guy name Josef Cony.  If you don't know who he is, he's basically this guy who tortures children in Africa and forces them to be his soldiers to terrorize other peaceful peoples in Africa and he even makes the children-soldiers kill their own parents.  We watched a movie on people who were affected by him.  So apparently he based his attacks off the Ten Commandments...If that's true, I wonder what version of the Ten Commandments he read.  I recall them saying things like Thou Shalt Not Kill and Honor Thy Father and Thy Mother.  People these days...

I'm off to play Minecraft and test out the new texture pack my brother made.  Oh, speaking of video games, Muppet FINALLY unlocked Diddy Kong on Mario Kart Wii.  Now I can be my favorite racing monkey in the whole world!
