just checking in to let you know I was still alive and kicking. I am feeling better in health. I am having a few issues with my youngest childs father....custody issues so if you could please keep my family in your prayers that would be greatly appreciated. On a birghter note I found my wedding dress at davids bridal and I also got my NEW ring. The princess cut diamond was only the engagement ring...now I have a wedding set :) I will get pics uploaded as soon as time allows. I am still busting my hump with two jobs, fighting for custody of my child, planning a wedding, and still trying to maintain my sanity. Tashi and I are doing as well as ever and again I appologize for being away soooo long but as you see my absense is warranted by all the irons in the fire. I see that everyone is doing well and that pleases me. I will try not to stay away so long this time.

Continued Blessings,

Rita

Oh my what a day :blink: I just got a call from Andre at work and the first words out of his mouth are “Promise not to get mad” well you know it can’t be good after that. Andre went driving alone :angry: First thought is he got in an accident or a ticket but praise God he didn’t. He found 2 puppies in the middle of the road. He picked them up and saw a farmer out in a nearby field so he went over to ask if they were his. Well the farmer went on for quite a bit to Andre about how people don’t have any hearts these days and how wicked society is…people come out to this area and dump unwanted litters. How sad is that! Well Andre picked up 2 of them and brought them home. He called my mom first and she told him that she would send my sis (Becky) over to help him bring them to an animal shelter. But then I get the call from Andre…he relays the whole story and throughout the whole convo he is telling me how sweet, adorable, wonderful, cute and cuddly these puppies are. Finally he gets to the end of the convo and says that he is going to tell Becky that she can’t have them and wants to know if I am ok with that. We just have to keep them he says :luv: Well I agreed that we would make a decision when I got home. So he was all excited to tell my sis that she can’t take them…that we might keep them. So I quick asked my boss (my landlord) if it would be ok to have dogs and he said yes…and my other boss overheard me and said that he has a kennel and dog house that he isn’t using…so we can have that! :dance: Can you believe this?!?! So anyways I am headed home in a half hour…this is crazy! Andre and my sis brought them over to my mom’s house (she has dog food and stuff) and she says they look like German Sheperds :yes: I will keep you guys posted!

Thank goodness Andre didn't get in an accident or get pulled over! Hopefully, you lectured him on why he shoudln't take the car out alone :yes: Yeah, when they start out the conversation w/ "promise not to get mad" you know you're in trouble :lol: I'm glad it worked out positive for you guys. Now Andre will have something to occupy him while you're at work. What better way to do it than with 2 puppies :yes:

Good morning ladies :luv: I hope everyone has a good Tuesday! I'm here at work as usual just waiting for everyone to wake up and come chat with me :lol:

Does anyone know how to post multiple posts in a row? I don't like all my posts all together :angry: That is the one thing I do NOT like about this new VJ format. If anyone figures this out, please let me know.

Good morning everyone,

Congrats Anna on your grandmother getting a visitors visa!!

Babyjules ~ I am not sure on this one but I think you have to be a US citizen to file for someone, I dont think someone that is just a resident can file. I might be wrong though, if you find out different let me know because my fiances sisters husband and kids are in the US as a residents and they are having a hard time trying to get her here.

I am not much of a cook, so I dont have any recipes, I am as simple as Rhonda, put some seasoning on it and I broil it in the over...sorry
