Love is not about finding the right person, but creating a right relationship. It's not about how much love you have in the beginning but how much love you build till the end."

Thankful Thursday!!
This Thursday I am thankful for having an absolutely wonderful man in my life, my husband DALE. I am lucky to have a person who is my best friend and who is always there for me. I can tell him anything and I can trust him with what I tell him. He has been a great support to me and my niece while she has been staying with us. Just think about it who in there right mind would be okay with a seventeen year old girl living with you, with dale he never asked any questions what so ever. He is always making me feel good when I feel down. He always brings up my spirits when I bring them down. He stuck with me through the thin and thick. He is the one for me!! I LOVE HIM VERY MUCH!!!

CRAZINESS
Facts on Halloween
Halloween, referred to as All Hallows Eve, was originally a pagan holiday in which they honored the dead. It was celebrated on October 31 since this was the last day of the Celtic calendar. The celebration dates back some 2,000 years.
-
The ancient Celts thought that spirits and ghosts wondered the streets on all Hallows Eve so they began wearing masks and costumes in order to not be recognized as human.-
The jack-o-lantern tradition comes from an old Irish folk tale about a man named Stingy Jack. It was said that he was unable to get into heaven and was turned away from the devil because of his tricky ways. So he set off to wander the world looking for a resting place. For light, Stingy Jack used a burning coal ember in a hollowed out turnip. When the Irish immigrated to the U.S. during the Great Potato Famine of 1845-1850, they found that turnips were not as readily available like they were in the homeland. So they started carving pumpkins as a replacement for their tradition.
-
On Halloween, Irish peasants would beg the rich for food. For those that refused, they would play a practical joke. So, in an effort to avoid being tricked, the rich would hand out cookies, candy, and fruit – a practice that morphed into trick-or-treating today.

Thankful Thursday!!
The question is what am I thankful for, why should it be so hard to come up with something to be thankful for. I am personally thankful for being alive, living in this beautiful world that I get to live in, is absolutely amazing. I am thankful for having something to believe in GOD. I am thankful for having my finances in order. I am also thankful for the unbelievable love I receive from my husband Dale. What else could you possibly ask for??

SUCCESS!!
The man who makes a success of an important venture never wails for the crowd. He strikes out for himself. It takes nerve, it takes a great lot of grit; but the man that succeeds has both. Anyone can fail. The public admires the man who has enough confidence in himself to take a chance. These chances are the main things after all. The man who tries to succeed must expect to be criticized. Nothing important was ever done but the greater number consulted previously doubted the possibility. Success is the accomplishment of that which most people think can't be done.

Pleasing
I cannot give you the formula for success, but I can give you the formula for failure--which is: Try to please everybody.
Two things in life:)
There are two things to aim at in life; first to get what you want, and after that to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind has achieved the second.
ACLS 2 day training
Tomorrow will be a big day for me for I am on a two day training and testing of ACLS for cardiac support, I will need to know all my EKG strips and medications that go with each strip in a mega code circumstance. I am very nervous about being the leader in the mega code. It will be a great experience, but at the same time very nerve racking. Can't wait until Thursday afternoon because then it all will be behind me... Wish me luck!!

Trust!!
What is it to you when you think of the word TRUST. What does it mean? Truly what makes trust TRUST? I think that the word trust can be both an emotional and a logical act. Emotionally, it is where you expose your vulnerabilities to people, but believing they will not take advantage of your openness. I feel that my niece takes advantage of us every chance she gets. I try my damnedest to believe her, but she is always lying to me and dale. She is so good at lying she almost believes her own lies. What do you do when things happen that shouldn't happen and it effects the whole family. Now I feel logically, it is where you have assessed the probabilities of gain and loss, and that the person in question will behave in a predictable manner. I should not have to worry about a trust issue, but everyday it gets worse with my niece. I do not know what to do when she comes home and she lies through her teeth, I want to ripe her lips off her face. I am not happy with the lies, my whole family are liars and I have worked very hard to get myself not to lie
We feel we have no trust in this relationship. Dale and I are at our breaking point. I am not sure what you do when you are so close to something and this all happens.
Yesterday for instance, Dale dropped off my niece at school, 1 hour later I get a call telling me she is not at school but she has missed 1+ classes. So okay we waited to hear her end of the story. Well, her end of the story didn't make any sense to me, so I called the school this morning. They told me she skipped the whole day so I called the Principal of the school and told him to take disciplinary action for she had no excuse for not being in her classes. for dale and I, we have NO control of this girl for her father buys her BEER every weekend, but when I say I can't do this anymore and tell them to come and get her; they say NO she is unwanted around here and that she needs to stay with me and it is my responsibility and problem. What can I do. I have absolutely NO support from her parents. I am at my breaking point and I am so sick and tired of being sick and tired.
I try my damnedest to do the right thing for her but she has broken every means of trust and I have no clue of how to keep going on like this. My relationship with her is broken and I don't have a clue of how to fix it. I am at a loss for words.
Any Suggestions???
