Back in the Habbit


So it has been a LOOOOOOOng time since I have even blogged a word or two. I am going to try to keep this up as much as I am on the computer, why not...

A lot has changed and happened in the past year or so. I am still in Central Oregon and LOVING it!!! My dad passed away and to this day I am greiving. I miss my Pappa. Knowing that I am never gonna be able to share a memory or a wise crack or just plain nothing, makes me cry and sad. I do not know if he is in heaven and I am only hoping he is. My Mom just recently checked herself into rehab for ALCOHALISM!!! This has made me a VERY happy girl!!!! She is in for 6 months and for free. This is thru the Salvation Army. After I read her first letter she sounds happy and has been doing homework, going to church twice a week and meetings 3 times a week! I want this to happen for her, I want her to be healthy! I want her and I to heal and have a realationship! I love my mom and only want to have the best for her!

Chris and I are doing awesome! Our little family has grown from 1 dog child to 3! I Wouldn't have it any other way! They are our children and they do keep us busy! Gizzmo has a son Junior and then 6 mos later we had an opps puppy!! Sonny is a wild boy! He is pitbull and chow chow mix! He is gonna be a big boy and a protector!
I am proud to be where I am today!

Where I have been!

Where to start....Hmmm...Life definetly hasn't handed over those lemons to make lemon aid so that I could sell it and live a little. I am sooo stressed and confused and worrysome and just don't feel like myself these days! I haven't found a job yet but I have many upon many applications out in what we call the real world. I have though been helping out my cousin since she just had surgery on her rotator cuff. So I do get a few dollars here and there mainly for gas. I would get more but her husband is adamant that I help her out and work off my tooth that he paid for when I needed a cap on it. But taking her here and there for her job has worn me out, I am able to put applications in at jobs but I have to work her Schedule. But now here is the worry if I do get a job how do I help her out...See my worry?
I am coming home to Washington for my cousin's wedding and an early birthday for my mom in February. (Feb. 6,7,8) My friend Jessica is letting me take her car and she is getting a rental but little ol me has to pay for the rental...Another worry :(
But for everything else I am happy. I love living here and waking up and looking out of the kitchen window and see the Cascade Mountain range! It is soooo BEAUTIFUL! It's weird living on this side of the mountains. And knowing it takes about 2 hours to get to I5 if I want to!
I went to Portland last wednesday thru friday with Jessica for her dads open heart surgery. He went thru the surgery well but he has not been off the ventilator or the heart something that is helping his heart keep beating. They (the docs) took him off or the heart thing and with in 10 mins his heart went to only 20% usage. They are also weaning him off of the meds and 1% oxygen every 12 hours to see how much he can handle on his own. I know that he is not saved and im not totally sure about Jessica. I know that she has another friend that is a christian and very strong ones at that.
I guess on a better side of things I have started bible study on wednesdays at Church and the study I chose was Beth Moore's study on Esther~It's hard being a woman! We have only done 2 weeks so far but I love it! And I am enjoying the weekly studies in the workbook! Also I have been helping out in Children's Church too! The kids are sooo cute! One of the little guys gave me his picture he colored in class, its on my wall! (so is the one I got from Rylie too )
So thats what has been going on in this crazey girls life!
Miss and LOVE YOU ALL!!!
Lil W
PS
I haven't started the exercising because I have been having heart palpitation's and Chris wants me to see a doctor first before my heart explodes as he puts it! So I have an appointment on Feb 3 in Madras(about 45mins away from me) But I have kicked the caffeine (yeah nooooo coffee:( ) and I dropped soda too.........Oh but I am truely gonna go back to school in the fall or maybe in the summer to become a medical assistant! Ok I think I am done!

OOOOPSS my mistake...

I am not much for writing today but I will soon. I have been helping my cousin Vickie out due to her not being able to move her shoulders! She saw her doc yesterday and confirmed she will be having surgery with in the month so hopefuly my background check came back and I can start working. I will be taking over her clients (her son and a neighbor girl). What I will be doing is taking them to work and various places they need to go. I will be working for a care facility for those that are mentaly and developementaly challenged...those with special needs! It's not a lot of money but something for now! I didn't really make any kind of resolutions this year but I would like to work on writing letters and sending card to my people SOOOOOO, I need a favor...Could somebody send me in the mail a copy of the Valley Bible Church directory...before the merge??? Also I need Danny and Sara's address too! Thanks! Email me @ wendygurl1978@gmail.com

The aftermath!

What a day it was and will now go down in the Wendy Christmas archives as being one of the best Christmas' thus far! Not because of gifts but because I was with family I love. I spent the morning with Chris and his family opened gifts and then I cooked breakfast!!! Sandy and Justin came over to my cousin's next door and cooked them prime rib dinner since they were gonna be alone so I went and hung out while my family were all napping! :) Then I was back in the kitchen (which was my gift) and made prime rib, sweet potatoes(mmm yummmm) mashed ones too and other things! But the fun part was that Chris' mom and his neice(she claims me as her aunt) and I sat down and played Sorry...I haven't played that game since I was a kid. It was kinda fun since I won! :) After the game of Sorry we were going to play Scrabble but instead all of us had a some sort of beer or wine and we just sat and chatted around the breakfast bar with our friend Camron who came to visit us! It was nice! Then we went back over to my cousins and hung out for a little while. It sure was a day!

Merry Christmas!!!

To all my family, friends and fans I have out there in cyber, blogger land....
May the season bring you Joy and Happiness to you and all your families! It has been a year! A hard year and a happy one as well! I won't go and repeat all the stuff in my blog in the past year and bore you all But I just want to let some of you know on a personal note how much you all mean to me!

Pastor and Wendy:
What and where do I start or say! You both have been a major part of my life and I am blessed to be one of the kids(both sandy and I) I am thankful for the love you guys have shown my family over all the years and especially in the most recent with Grampa in heaven and how you have helped and taken care of Gramma when I cannot be there! And I am thankful that you two have been such Godly "parents" to me and helping me get thru the rough moments (which sometimes don't seem to stop). Thank you for ALWAYS being there with encouragement and love!
I love you guys!

Amy and Ryan:
Amy as long as I can remember you have always been my closest and dearest friend reguardless of the miles between us! You hold a special part in my heart that will never be given to anyone else! (Ryan too!) Both you and Ryan have also encouraged me to be a stronger Christian woman and I thank you for that! By your walk I see the Lord sooo clear as day in you! I know we have our moments but I never see that in you! I loove you Amy Lou and your family!
PS tell Pam and Moo Thank you for the Christmas card! It meant a lot!

Jessica
Thank you for being you! I really appreciate all the little comments you leave me here! And it makes me feel loved to know that you care! I still have the 5 bucks for the frozen custard place! May you and Chris be blessed this Christmas with your little angel's first Christmas! I love you Jess!
May the reason for the season be of Our Lord Jesus and be a time of fun and blessing with our families!
Love you all!

Snow Snow Snow and still more snow to come!

Well it's official! I LOVE THE SNOW!!! Ok not that drastic but it is sooo pretty! The other nite Chris and I were walking around in the snow and one of the outside lights were on and we actually saw an individual snow flake and it was soooooo beautiful and delicate looking! Snow flakes really do look like the ones we see hanging around or on tv or where ever! And the awesome thing is that it is another one of God's amazing creation! The only thing that discourages me of the snow is the lack of experience I have driving in it and the lack of studs or chains for our truck! So that means being stranded. But you just learn to deal with it and go on with your lives!
Yesterday my little man...AKA Gizzmo decided he needed to go potty and well he has been having problems coming home when called. So now we are back to puppy training, back on a leash and going out only when mommy takes him out! Im bummed I have to do this again because HE LOVES the snow and to not let him play in it bothers me! Sometimes I wonder if it bothered my parents when they put us on groundation and knew there was something going on that we wanted to do if they felt bad we couldn't go and enjoy it!
I went to the Christmas program last night with my cousin and her family! It was soo cute and hard for me at the same time! I was an actual audience member and not involved in it. Of course the little ones singing "Away in the Manger" was a hit! And the teen agers were quite the actors! They put on a funny little skit! It got me a little more in the Christmas spirit! I know that I should be in the spirit because this is the time to celebrate the birth of Jesus and in my heart I am overwhelmed by the Love that God gave us that night in a manger. But the human part of the celebrating has been a hard one! I thought I would be ok but I am a mess! and I go thru it day after day one day at a time!
I love you all

It's been awhile

Ok so I haven't written in a while and it's only because our computer here is super duper sloooooooooooow and lately it doesn't want to load up blogger!!!!
We have been having a DUMPING of snow here and I LOVE IT!!! This will be my first White Christmas that I can remember. I am having a difficult time with the season though! Last year I was able to go home and be with my family up in Washington. My dad for our family get together my dad dressed up like Santa. The whole family loved it especially the kids! My dad of all just LOVED doing it and watching the kids! We all got pictures with Santa and told him what we wanted for Christmas and as I was sitting on his lap I told him I was a good girl and that I wanted a car for Christmas, since I was in an accident 2 months prior and needed some wheels!
So the next morning(Christmas) I opened all my presents and low and behold I got a car! But not what you think! It was my dream car '69 dodge charger but only a hotwheel version! But we both started to laugh and it was just the both of us because it was between my daddy and me!
I didn't really think I was going to have such a hard time this Christmas season but I am! Not having a job has been the icing on the cake. Not even sending Christmas cards to my family or buying gifts for every one is the hard! But really not having my dad around is has been the hardest thing for me to endure! Sometimes I wonder if I will ever get over it all but only Gods knows!
Another hard thing for me is that I won't be able to go to my Valley Bible anymore! We merged with another Church and the other building is much bigger to hold both congregations! I wanted to be at the last service but unfortunately the weather and the lack of transportation is the reason. I have sooooo many memories there at Valley! And I will always hold them all dear to my heart!
The one thing that has been a joy to me is recieving the few Christmas card from family and friends!
I love you all and wish the Merriest and happiest Christmas with your family and friends. Be safe and good to eachother!
I love you all!

Desprately need some feedback...PLEASE...What I have Observed lately

I go to church every sunday if I am allowed too...(I rarely miss) and I don't sit in the same place every sunday like I did in Washington. Anyways Church starts out with praise and worship, then we do the Lords Supper...every sunday. First thing is that the way they do the Lord's supper is that we ALL line up and there are 4 tables that have the bread and juice along with the offering boxes. I don't like this. I don't feel like I am honoring the Lord's supper as I am to do so. The pastor doesn't even read the passages in the Bible that explain what each thing symbolizes. But because I want to honor God I go and do the Lord's supper.

Then after that we have a time for silent prayer which I think and believe we should do before communion because we need to have our hearts right before partaking in communion...right??? So knowing this I try to sit as far in the back as I can so I can have that most intimate time with my LORD!

Then the pastor gets up and does his speech, er i mean sermon...I notice first that he has the verse's that he is preaching from on the screens and lets the congregation know that they can find the passage on whatever pages. FIRST not only do I notice that the congregation or most of them not pick up the Bible in front of them but I rarely see any one carry one in with them!!! SECOND the pastor doesn't even break open his bible and really I don't think I ever see him with one in his hands!
I guess I hold my church, Valley Bible, in washington at such a high level that there are no Churhes good enough for me! I chose this church I am going to because it is not radical, they do a lot for the community and for their people. But I honestly think that a lot of the congregation are only sunday christians! The way the church is and the seats are posistioned you can see a lot of people and what they are doing! And I see couples with their arms around each other and mom's carring for their babies! And the only people with their bibles open were 2 teenage girls sitting in front of me and mom and dad not!
You would think that if the verses were provided that you would see people take notes right??? NOT!!!
One lady whom I was sitting next too made the comment to me "boy you sure have a lot of notes in your bible"(ephesians)
Now on to the sermon....I have been biting my tongue because I am not a pastor nor someone that has any authority to say but I am at loss of what to think! The pastor does have a message and he gets it across in a short amount of time(it could be because of 3 services) but I feel no conviction and feel like they are sugar coated with what the congregation wants to hear.

Honestly I do like this Church. The womens bible study is great! After the new year I am going to join the group that is doing Beth Moore's-Esther: It's tough being a woman. I am excited!
Anyways I want to meet with the pastor and tell him what I have observed but do I have the right to do so???

Santa Baby

Ok so here is another song that makes me giggle every time I hear it! My gramma at times has sung it when ever it came on the radio along with a little goofy dance or something! She draws out the inner Eartha Kitt!

Santa baby, slip a sable under the tree,For me.
been an awful good girl,Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Santa baby, a 54 convertible too,Light blue.
I'll wait up for you dear,Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Think of all the fun I've missed,Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed,
Next year I could be just as good,
If you'll check off my Christmas list,
Santa baby, I wanna yacht,
And really that's not a lot,Been an angel all year,
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Santa honey, there's one thing I really do need,The deed
To a platinum mine,
Santa honey, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with a duplex,
And checks.
Sign your 'X' on the line,Santa cutie,
and hurry down the chimney tonight.
Come and trim my Christmas tree,
With some decorations bought at Tiffany's,
I really do believe in you,
Let's see if you believe in me,
Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing,
A ring. I don't mean on the phone,
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight,
Hurry down the chimney tonight,
Hurry, tonight.
Still no word yet on the job! As of yesterday she still had to do my refrences. Also my cousin Ryan is doing well as of Last friday. He had a skin graph taken from his leg to put on the wound where it was too swollen to stitch up! I am not sure if he is home, last email I got he was to go home on wednesday! The family is all getting together to help put up Christmas lights and do a turkey day just for him next week! I wish I could be there!
Talk to you soon

Grandma Got ran over by a Reindeer...

OK so this is in the silly kinda goofy part of my life! Chris and I were chatting with another and I was telling him about my blog and what I was doing and asked him what his favorite or one of his faves Christmas songs! SO he came up with Grandma got ran over by a reindeer!!!
I was thinking to my self that I sure hope my gramma doesn't over indulge in eggnog this year!!! I won't be home to protect her from Santa's mean old reindeer!

Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer is a goofy Christmas song and an animated movie.
Written by Randy Brooks, the song was originally performed by the husband and wife duo of Elmo and Patsy Shropshire in 1979. In the lyrics, the grandmother of the family gets drunk from drinking too much eggnog and decides to return home to retrieve her forgotten medication. In the course of her walk, she is run over by Santa and killed (however, the video has her stagger in alive at the end)


Grandma Got Ran Over by a Reindeer

Grandma got run over by a reindeer Walking home from our house Christmas eve.
You can say there's no such thing as Santa, But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.
She'd been drinking too much eggnog,
And we'd begged her not to go.
But she'd left her medication, So she stumbled out the door into the snow.
When they found her Christmas morning, At the scene of the attack.
There were hoof prints on her forehead, And incriminating Claus marks on her back.

Grandma got run over by a reindeer, Walking' home from our house Christmas eve.
You can say there's no such thing as Santa, But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.

Now were all so proud of Grandpa, He's been taking this so well.
See him in there watching football, Drinking' beer and playing cards with cousin Belle.
It's not Christmas without Grandma. All the family's dressed in black.
And we just can't help but wonder: Should we open up her gifts or send them back?

Grandma got run over by a reindeer, Walking home from our house Christmas eve.
You can say there's no such thing as Santa, But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.

Now the goose is on the table And the pudding made of fig.
And a blue and silver candle, That would just have matched the hair in Grandma's wig.
I've warned all my friends and neighbors. Better watch out for yourselves.
They should never give a license, To a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elves.

Grandma got run over by a reindeer, Walking' home from our house, Christmas eve.
You can say there's no such thing as Santa, But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.
Enjoy a giggle for the day!

O Holy Night...day 2

Holy Night...Day 2 This song makes tears come to my eyes EVERY time I hear or try to sing it! It reminds me that even though my Grampa Culbertson bah humbuged Christmas on the outside he was the biggest giddiest kid too! One Christmas season WAY back when he sang this for our church Christmas program and when I hear it I always hear him singing it not the singer. This was one song I wished I was able to sing with him but never got the chance. My grampa had such a beautiful voice and this was something we had in common. We would sing and sing on our way to Church on family trips or just on the weekends at grampa and gramma's house.




O holy night, the stars are brightly shining,
It is the night of the dear Savior’s birth;
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn
Chorus
Fall on your knees, Oh hear the angel voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born!
O night, O holy night, O night divine.
2. Led by the light of faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
Here come the wise men from Orient land
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friend.

Chorus
He knows our need, He guardeth us from danger
Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!

3. Truly He taught us to love one another
His law is love and His gospel is peace
Chains shall He break, for the slave is our brother,
And in His name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy name.

Chorus
Christ is the Lord, O praise His name forever!
His pow'r and glory evermore proclaim!
His pow'r and glory evermore proclaim!
May the words bless you as they do me~
Love you all and much!

"White Christmas"...Day one

So this is one of my ALL time favorite movies to watch around the holidays! It brings a lot of wonderful memories to head. One of them is that this movie would always come on when my sister Sandy and I would stay the night at Gramma and Grampa Culbertson's on the weekends. And of course we would sit and watch it. Grampa and I then would start crooning together all the Bing Crosby songs and yes the Hanes sisters too! I thought that it was cool to be able to have Bing Crosby in surround sound. When Grampa sang he had a golden voice like ol' Bing and I would love to hear him sing.
"White Christmas" was written ny Irving Berlin in early 1940 making fun of the californians, there is a verse before the chorus we know. It was also first sang in the movie staring Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire called "Holiday Inn". White Christmas also received the Academy Award for the best song that year.
"White Christmas is famous for other reasons as well. The World War II had destroyed not only the nations but also the hopes and aspirations of millions. With an uncertain future the dark bleak days were a torment to many. White Christmas was like a fresh breeze, giving a feel-good feeling and succor to the tormented souls. The main reason was the song expresses a sense of yearning and peace. By the time the war got over, White Christmas was the biggest selling single, a record unbroken for more than fifty years." (taken from the website http://www.christmascarnivals.com/christmas-history/history-white-christmas.html )
White Christmas was then made into a Musical in 1954 which stars GREAT old timmers like Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney(Yes, George Clooney's Aunt) and Vera-Ellen. One little tid bit is that Vera-Ellen was a very disaplined dance where as Clooney was a beautiful singer. They had to dub in another singers voice for any songs that Vera-Ellen sang in that movie.
White Christmas

The sun is shining
The grass is green
The orange and palm trees sway.
I've never seen such a day
In Beverly Hills LA.
But it's December the 24th
And I am longing to be up North.
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know.
Where the treetops glisten,
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow.
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write.
May your days be merry and bright.
And may all your Christmases be white.
Take care and enjoy one of my faves!!!
Love and God Bless you all!
Wendy
