Little Update

So in my last post I had mentioned how I'm having a baby and was going to have a sonogram done. Well, for one we did get the sonogram and found out we are having A BOY. Just as we suspected. And currently I'm almost 30 weeks pregnant. I've started a pregnancy blog so you can head over there to check out details and follow me throughout the pregnancy, birth, and life thereafter. --> Pregnancy Blog

Not too sure what I'll be posting on this blog now, as my life story has basically shifted over to my other blog. But most likely will just post random stuff like I used to do. (: so anyway, go and follow my new blog!! I'll be posting there a lot more often. ;) and saving this blog for other stuff I decide to share.

Have a great day!

Further News

So, continuing from my last post, Anthony and I FINALLY moved. We kept putting it off mainly because we wanted to fix the car and had to wait for car parts, and then he had a small accident and we had to replace a headlight...but after all, we are finally here!
It's not exactly what we expected. Very cloudy and been rainy most the time since we got here. We did have one sunny day though. But for the fact that Christmas is in two days..IT SHOULD BE SNOWING.  It does not feel like Christmas this year. And it stinks!
While on the topic of Christmas, what would you like for Christmas? I want a recording microphone. I told my mom and I'm pretty positive she's getting me one. So I can't wait!  Better quality music recordings here we come. Next I'll just need a good camera.

Also, I know I'm gonna be jumping around a bit on this post, but there's a corner store from our new house that is literally two houses down. It's called Westside Flava's and they have THE best food! Everything we've tried is beyond good. People there are very nice and talkative too, and of course the cook there made a 'Soul Roll' for us to sample. It's like an egg roll but stuffed with, collared greens, lettuce, turkey and some other stuff. But man, that tastes BETTER than egg rolls. They have extremely good chicken and sandwiches too. Proud to have it as our corner store. Lol. Although it's a little more expensive....the food is just so good you HAVE to go back. Next time we go, which will probably be today, I'm getting two soul rolls and going to try one of their salads. But we better go today because we are going back to Anthony's parent's tomorrow and staying through New Year.

That brings me to some other news... Anthony and I are having a baby. We've told basically everyone we wanted to know first before we made anything public. So that's why it's been so long. I'm 19 weeks and  4 days along now. But while we're in NY I'm going to finally get my first sonogram and hopefully can find out the gender! I've already had one appointment with a midwife and they took some blood and I got to hear the baby's heartbeat. But I'm pretty excited for when we get the sonogram. I guess that's sorta like one of my Christmas gifts.

Anyway, that's whats been going on and I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas! And Happy New Year!

This would be our new house.

And our favorite corner store.

Thanksgiving Time!

So Thanksgiving is this week! What are you thankful for? What are you doing this year?

For this year Anthony and I are moving to Pennsylvannia (more details about this in a future post). He got a construction job that pays really well, and we were supposed to be gone today, but we decided we should probably stay until after Thanksgiving. So the plan is to leave on Saturday.  So we'll see what happens!

On another note, we got a car! It's a Park Avenue by Buick and a 2002 model. Its in such good condition and we got it for a great price.  I honestly feel so lucky and thankful to have so many things working out right now.

Also, I was actually looking forward to making my own turkey this year, but since we're probably staying here for Thanksgiving, I'll probably just make it afterwards. Because I really wanna make turkey!

Anyway, I'm excited and happy and hope everything turns out ok. Sorry I couldn't give more details, but it'll have to go into a future post. ;)

THANK YOU ♥ HAPPY THANKSGIVING ♥

Our new car.

New York Times... so far

So I have been in New York for about the past five months or so,  and gotta say...lots has happened! Anyway, Long island beaches are wonderful. The ocean is enjoyable and relaxing and the waves are fun to play in so long as you don't get pulled out in undercurrents.  ;) I was actually saved by a lifeguard once.

I've battled pneumonia and was in the hospital for five days. And gotta say that was probably the worst thing that has happened to me. I NEVER want to experience that again.

During the Summer it probably only rained a total of three times. And the rain picked up once September rolled around.  And beginning of October when the hurricane Joquin was possibly going to hit I left for Ohio for ten days(went to my brothers Confirmation). But thankfully the hurricane never did hit here. Since then there hasn't really been any rain.

I've been working at a catering hall called Larkfield Manor. It's not too bad. I work basically on weekends and get paid pretty well for three days worth.  But its even better when you can make $50 tips in one night. Not the easiest thing to make tips at a catering hall though. But I have definitely learned a lot.

I've done so many more things but for me to put them all in detail here would be WAY too much, so I will list them.

Other things I've done while in New York:

-Jones Beach
-Airforce Plane Show
-Robert Moses Beach
-Christina Perri Concert
-Bronx Zoo
-Sight and Sound (Pennsylvania)
-Hershey Farm (Pennsylvannia)
-Lazer Dome
-CitiField for baseball (Mets vs Reds)
-Rode a train
-Saw some movies (Fantastic Four, Minions, Pan, War Room, and so many others...)
-Went to Olive Garden on my birthday
-Went to Tellers resturant for one year anniversary.

...And that's about all I can think of right now. :)

I am hoping to stay a litte more updated on my posts...like AT LEAST once a month. I never planned to get behind this much, but you know, things change and people grow busy at times. But I will try my best to make time.  :) ♥

Belated Easter

So it's been a few days my fellow readers. Not too much has happened, but I missed my post for Easter! So here it is...a little late, but better than never.

On Easter day I unfortunately had to work. I went to church that morning, came home and basically just went to work. Although it was much slower than a normal Sunday which was pretty good.

The bad part about it was that we were not paid time and a half because Easter is not considered a "government holiday." But the fourth of July is. I can't tell you how many people were upset with that picture. Even majority of my customers thought it was unfair. Except for one. That's all. I only had one who really didn't seem to care.

That was pretty shocking actually. But it is what it is....

Sorry this is a late late late post! Its been hectic! And I've been working more hours.

So until next time! 

:) 

"Death Do Us Part"

This is actually a post I've made on a facebook page of mine under my pen name. Wrote it a while back, but I think it's a good read and I wanna give more people a chance to read it who may not have seen it. You can find the page here: https://www.facebook.com/helpmarriages?fref=nf

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

How is divorce ever acceptable in marriage? (It's not.)

Marriage is a vow, a promise to love and be with eachother until death. If you chose to marry, that's what you are telling your bride/bridegroom. There's nothing in there mentioning that you can divorce when you've "stopped loving eachother." And if you are basing your love off of a feeling all by itself, then you need to wake up! Feelings always change. Of course Love is a feeling, but it doesn't mean you will always "be in love." The feeling can come and go like normal feelings.
Especially when you first fall in love you'll have that nice fuzzy new feeling that we all enjoy. These new feelings are usually present in all new relationships and can last for 6 months up to 3 years. And alot of people like to leave once that feeling fades. But if you leave when the feeling fades, then you never really truly loved that person, because a true love is not based alone on the feeling, it's the choice to be with that person no matter what you may be feeling at that time. So true love includes both a feeling and the choice.
These are good things to think about before choosing to marry someone too. Will you still be there when they're sick, injured, poor, sad? Or will you still be there when you get angry at them, or they sadden you somehow? In other words, will you survive the hard times with them? If not, then rethink your relationship. Find someone you could survive being with for your whole life through everything.
And for those who are already married, but feel like they are not with the right person, go back in time: what were the things that made you fall in love with them? Make a list. After that, divide it into two categories. 1.) Can't be taken away 2.) CAN be taken away.
The more you have in the first category, the better. And Im not saying that having things in the second category is necessarily bad either. Just the more in the first, the better. And if you don't have very many in the first category take some time to think. Is there anything at all you could put there? I know this might be just as hard for happily married couples to come up with because for example, you can't write down their looks(those fade with time.) But just see what you come up with.
If you really feel no reason to be in the marriage though, just remember you made a promise. And think about why you got married in the first place. And you better fight to keep it together because THAT marriage is IRREPLACABLE. You can fall in love with so many people, but there's only one person you can choose to be with all your life. Once you divorce, you break that and you can never get it back. The same for abortion. For example, that baby is irreplacable as much as people say it's just a "ball of cells," if you were to let that child grow up, then you would never find another like it. So, why do we throw away some of the most special gifts in the world?
FIGHT against what is pulling you apart, because whatever it is, it's trying to take that gift away from you, and if you divorce, you are only letting evil win.

Thank you for reading again. smile emoticon Feel free to contact me if you need to. Leave opinions in the comments, etc. I'm no expert on this subject, but I am doing what I can and I hope it saves many marriages, even just one.

A little bit of Heaven aye!

So, today I had a thought cross my mind. I was thinking about the people who are in situations where they lose everything. Like in a house fire, or even a severe flood, tornado, all those natural disasters. I was thinking of how they don't have a choice because it just happens without any warning in some cases. Then, I asked myself what if you lost everything you had?  I was trying to imagine how I might feel or if I would even be able to live without anything. Like, WHAT IF EVERYTHING YOU EVER HAD JUST DISAPPEARED? If all that you owned was taken away would you be able to survive? 

After I had thought about that I connected it to another fact I know which is that in Heaven you will not have these possessions. Of course, I don't know for sure because I've never been there. BUT I can imagine what Heaven would be like. 

My idea of Heaven is based off of what I know in the faith and from other things I may have read about or seen. 

The picture in my imagination: 

In Heaven, you feel more peaceful than peace is described on Earth. You don't possess the material items but you possess love and peace from everyone there. People communicate through their minds without needing to open their mouths. It would be like God giving you a message here on Earth, like hearing a random voice in your head telling you to do something.  Like your conscious. It would be filled with lots of light, and many smiles and laughter would be shared. No thought of doubt, worry, or fear would ever come to mind. It's pure happiness...

What I'm curious about is if Heaven would be shaped to what you like...because people say Heaven is paradise, but everyone has a different perspective on what paradise is to them. So is there only ONE paradise out there that supposably can make everyone happy?! What are the things that everyone has in common that makes them happy? Those are the things that would probably be in Heaven. At least I think. 

What do you all think????
