A little bit of my life

Anyone who has ever spent any time with me at all

knows that

I have my Daddy's tongue & temper.

am hard headed as the day is long

Some call me a "Work-aholic"

Indepent is my middle name

My daddy calls me missy

I love children

My little Prince man keeps me going

I love a good drive, windows down, radio blastin

I enjoy a good cold beer

My friends keep me going

I am quick to care

Ill give anyone a first chance

A good country song is the way to my heart

ill scoot a boot for hours

I survived cancer as little girl

I will do anything to make another smile

I am very selfless; sometimes too much so

I always try and find the good first

i DONT sleep

My family is amazing

i miss my Gram

I hate relying on anyone but me

I always make a wish at 11:11

I am a big kid at heart

Ill never fully grow up

I love responsibility

I love all music

I take way to many pictures

I need to be more confident

I am in the process of buying my first home

I love a good challenge

I will fight for what i believe in

I dont mind telling you the honest truth

I am finally content with my life and they way it is

Change my hair way to much

I worry to much

&

i love cowboy boots

Until next time....

Never Grow Up

Never Grow Up....

What is Growing Up really mean anyway?

NO MORE

• Nap time
• Spankings from your parents even though they still threaten sometimes
• Signing the book or standing in the corner when you do something wrong at school
•  "thats ok, it was just an accident" ( and no im not talking about RR)
• well sweetie ill fix it
• thats ok ill do it for you
• parents making the big choices in your life for you
• parents buying everything you need

ON TO

• school
• Being responsible
•  bills
• broken hearts instead of broken crayons
• losing touch with friends
• graduating
•  " A big girl Job"
• Finding a place to live
• Insurance
• transportation
• Relationships
• Children
• Family of your own
• Pets
• Making your own decisions and living with the choices you make

When i was younger all i wanted was to grow up.....

Now that the time has come, all i wanna do is go back to

- When which color crayon i wanted to use was my HARDEST decision of the day.

The Dream

Well, First off i had titled this blog

The Next Chapter in the book of my life

But a very BEST friend of mine

just changed the title

all by a simple

text.

So, with that being said FIRST

I will explain my newest very BIG

Adventure, in this life i live.

218 Elm St. Clyde, Texas

Is where i pray new

hopes will

begin

At first glance this little 2 bedroom, 1 bath home on Elm street didnt quite please me in the way I was hoping before i entered the home Thursday July 7th,2011 at 12:15 sharp. My sweet Realator who i have pretty much know my whole life was there to meet me along with my mama, Tom, Jackie and my sweet grandparents happen to be driving by. On first thought i automatically wanted to look at anything else but this house. I walked around the house with im sure the most awkward/unhappy look on my face. I couldnt figure out why everyone else seemed so happy and excited, because i sure wasnt! 

But the total truth is they were looking at it for what this perfect sized, 2 bedroom 1 bathroom house COULD be. They saw it with paint on the walls, decorations, furniture and all the things i could add or do to it to make it more like me. 

So when i finally quit being the BRAT, that sometimes i admit i can be, I really loved this little home. But i wasnt going to do anything without thinking about it first.

Now we begin the offer process.....

Little did i know was going to be MORE difficult than i had first thought.

Original asking price of the house- $44,900

My offer( with reason of course)- $40,000- closing cost, survery and home warranty

Next day: The counter- 50,000 will pay everything

My responce: NOOOOOO, final offer 44,900 ( them pay all costs) LAST OFFER

Counter from Seller: 46,000 only 3,300 of closing cost

Now, back to the title.

A little over a year ago now i was in the most low and difficult spot i probably have ever been in. Not anything could bring me out of this funk i was in. Until one day i finally put my foot down and said its time to make new dreams and move ON with your life. I happend to also at the time have this app on my iphone that made cute little collages. So i went on the internet and found pictures of dreams that i had( this tact was learned by my Mary Kay girls) and i put all the pictures of my dreams on this collage and i sent it out to a couple of friends who knew what i was going through.

Nearly a year later i could have been in the exact position i was last year, but this time for some reason i never let myself go back there. I have kept my faith in my lord  and my head held high knowing he had a plan for me.

In this year i have accomplished many things that at the time i was so scared to even attempt.

I got accepted into Surgical Tech School

Gained friends ill never forget

Met a great guy(who changed my outlook on life)

Gained a wonderful family

Graduated from Surgical Tech School in May

Interviewd

Got a wonderful job working with people i love

I still work part time at my old job....to stay busy

Am single again, but not forgetting the lessons i learned

and making my very first offer to buy my own house! 

With all of this being said...the text i recieved before i ended this blog was this from a beautiful and wonderful friend of mine who has never once stopped believing in me or that fact that i can accomplish my goals.

The only thing im lacking is that pretty little black hot rod, which i decided to give up right now in order to make a house payment! NO, the house isnt as nice or expensive, but its just for me. The house came back to me for a reason, because even forgetting i ever created this collage. This was a dream that i had set out to accomplish without any help. GUESS what, im here, i have arrived.
So the next time i think.....where is my life going?
What am i supposed to be doing?
Is this the right decision?
Am i following my heart?
Am i listening to the word from the man upstairs?
Are my prayers being answered?
THE ANSWER....will always be yes.



It's a Bachelorette Party Weekend

We Came to party!

-This past weekend the girls and i loaded all of our girls essentials up in the car and hit the road! A bunch of stops and 4 and a half hours later we arrived in San Antiono, Texas for what i could call the best weekend in a while!

-Court, kee, SJ and i were the first to arrive and we got into this house and got unpacked....or basically piled all of our stuff in the closet to make Sammi happy :) love you dear!

-About an hour later the second group arrived & this car just happened to have our BRIDE!

- We all unloaded all the alcohol and piled it all up to see just what we were getting ourselves into!

- Next Miss Crafty Hillary arrived & we began to decorate for our weekend that was ahead of us! Decorations, cups filled with candy, banners, & all of Thirsty's attire for the weekend!

The rest of the girls arrived at different times but we all began to PRIMP for our night out to dinner at Chuy's!



The Next morning came all too soon, but it was time to restart the party with all the girls, swimsuits, towels, sunglasses, alcohol and LAYING by the pool!

& the LIMO has arrived!!! ITS TIME

-After the limo ride to dinner, the limo picked us up and took us basically around the block only to drop us off again to head out the clubs on the river walk! it was a great night that ended all to quickly! We later returned to the limo shortly before 1 am and went back to the house! We all changed into our swimsuits unfortunately i never returned down stairs to finish the night up with swimming and getting the security guards called due to the bitchy neighbor next door! Next morning we all cleaned up and got ready to return home. The girls and i stopped in Fredricksburg on the way home to shop a bit and most of all eat! Great trip overall

- CONGRATS THIRSTY I LOVE YOU AND I HOPE YOU ENJOYED YOUR WEEKEND TO THE FULLEST!!

CANT WAIT TO WATCH YOU WALK DOWN THE ISLE AT MILLER RANCH TO STAND WITH YOU AND WATCH YOU MARRY YOUR

Until the next time- MissWhit

Looking back....

Today,

My girls and i were on our way home from one of the best weekends in a long time.

Thirsty's Bachelorette Party in San Antonio was a huge success!!

We stopped for lunch in the Cutest little town Fredricksburg & then headed for home.

As we drove i thought about the amount my life has changed over the past couple of years but more than anything the last year itself. It has gone from nearly having a ready made family and not going to school just working & living life to Single and in college working on the best thing of my life, Being a surgical tech. A job that is hard work but a job that i wake up excited to do each day.

Over the last year i also have met some of the best friends a girl could ask for. They are my rocks and i dont know what i would do without any one of them.

I then met someone who became my best friend and i thought i had it made, until things took a turn.Back to square one we go.

 I have a fabulous new job that i live for every day!

 I added another great family to my life and i dont know what id do without them and my own family.

 Even though i feel like my life is somewhat upside down and not really knowing where it is headed i know that the man upstairs will take care of me.

 I am currently excited but nervous because im in the process of trying to find a house to buy. I placed an offer on the first one i saw, it was small and needed work but i was excited for the project i was taking on.

 Things of this nature give me a new found confidence about my life and myself. I take pride in being able to do things that no one thinks i can do

. So back at square one i am and i will take it each day until i am shown where it is that im supposed to be and what im supposed to be doing.

- Until next time Miss Whit
