Bumper Sticker
So on the way home today i saw this bumper sticker that said "don't move firewood, it bugs me". Apparently it's an environmentalisst thing about moving firewood and spreading bugs that will destroy the forest. hmm..
So, the greenies don't want to move fallen trees to use for fuel because they think that the bugs Already Present in the environment will destroy the forest. So now i'm supposed to be afraid of bugs. Well, that's just peachy!
This is the way it is. Bugs live on the woods. Moving the fallen tree next to the standing one to use for firewood is not going to destroy the forest. If new bugs move to somewhere it's probably because they migrated there naturally or they came here in an imported product. Kind of like moths getting into a store on dogfood bags.
So lets just say that bugs are not all bad. Creepy yes(spiders guh!) but not bad. The only one that I can even think of that is bad is the ladybug look alike that got imported to kill another bug and is taking over where it should not.
Still Catholic and proud of it. Don't have a lot of rants like my dad, the ignorant redneck. Love being a wife and mother and have known that was my calling since I was 10 yrs old.

Was a book review, now it's not.
I was going to review a book called A Woman's Worth by Marianne Williams. I'm sorry to say it won't make it as I cannot bring myself to finish the book. I made as far as about half the first chapter and was too mad to finish it. So, in light of the fact that i fell the need to review what i did read, here a statment and then the review of the preface and part of the first chapter.
What the hell is going on here! And where did this woman get her info about "the hell and bak club"(as she would put it.)
This review is my own personal opinion. I do NOT apologize if it offends anyone, as I am entitled to have my own opinion. :
A woman's Worth: Marianne Williams 1993
Preface review:
"For us, for women who have been to hell and back?"
Firstly, I don't think the women who made this statement really understand what this fraize means. The author claims that knowing what it means make it a membership badge for the club, a badge of honor so to speak. I don't think she full understands what it means. My best friend really has been to "hell and back" She knows what it means. Some of what I have been through myself makes me a nominee, not a member. I have not truly been through hell. Just glimpsed it in the distance waiting for the right catalyst.
Miss(or Ms. or Mrs.) Williams listed abortion as one of the things that makes you a member of this club. From a personal stand point, that is NOT CORRECT. Abortion is the murder of the child you are to be protecting. An infant separate from your body that has a visibly heartbeat at 3 months. That from the minute you start seeing an obstetrition they can monitor for health. It has it's own arms, legs fingers toes, organs, brain and body funtions. It is not part of your body. The reason we reproduce by incubation for 9 months is because it is the safest place for the baby. Abortion is the murder of a helpless human being. IT DOES NOT MAKE YOU A MEMBER OF THE CLUB.
As for the rest of the book:
I could not make it more than half through the first chapter because it became clear that the sum up from the inside cover makes the book mascarade as a christian book, but in truth I don't think the woman believes in God at all. The book also seems to be makeing women fell better about liking sex so much they can have it with men who aren't thier husbands.(yes i know i had sex with the my husband before we were married i'll clarify). It seems to make married women fell better about that. Unfortunately for the unmarried girls our culture has taught them that virginity is something that does not need to be charished.
That is af far as I got. I am not going to finish the book. I do not apologize for offending anyone. My personal views are mine and you are entitled to have yours. I only hope that any who read this post understand that my views cannot be changed, but that i will not forcfe them on you either. I would like to hear your views and I hope you are not overly vexed by mine.

Basking In Womanhood
I am so happy to be a woman. I have been so fed up with the way some people in my household don't help keep house. So, instead of staying annoyed and fighting with them over it- I"M TAKEING OVER. The only places I haven't taken over, is the bathroom(it's still someone elses chore), and the upstairs(I just can't leave the kids alone long enough to deal with it).
Grinnin' bouncers b-day party is this saturday, and to make sure that the house is presentable, i've taken over the cleaning. What they don't know is..it's not just for the week. I am so keeping this up. I'm already getting a routine for getting it done. And I like haveing a clean kitchen floor, and the carpet vacuumed, and things dusted and windows washed and the grease off the things over the stove.
I really like doing laundry (I think clean laundry smells good). I like being able to see out my windows without a film on it. And i really got a kick out of being able to tell people to take thier shoes off if they were going to track things onto my clean floors.
I know a lot of women are going to think that i'm some poor, misquided, brainwashed thing. Well, I love breaking this to you, I LIKE DOING ALL THIS STUFF! IT keeps me from being a couch potato. I get to go up and down stairs, which really keeps my butt and legs in shape. An the girls get a good example set about not just laying around and letting the trash build up on itself and the clutter block things from view or fall off of things.
so i'm going to say this loud and proud:
I LOVE BEING THE TRADITIONAL HOMEMAKER. i LIKE CLEANING AND COOKING.
And for all those young girls younger than me being told to get things a certain way. Men like food, LEARN TO COOK. men don't like girls who don't take care of themselves, KEEP YOUR HOME CLOTHES AND YOURSELF CLEAN. And , lastly for my mom and all those other moms who worry about the kids- Just carry a tide pen for those little stains when out and about, have a good stain lifter for the clothes and put them in the nice stuff anyway.
Since i'mm doing all this old school woman stuff, I feel better about myself, my home and i worry less about all the other things out there that give other people migraines.
Feel free to comment. I'd love to hear them.
