Why? Why?

As I sip my dirty martini tonight with eyes glued to CNN and my Cafe World running in the background, I wonder....

Why do some people feel so superior to others?

Why do so called good Christians act as though they far from Christian?

Why, according to the CNN poll, do 57% of Americans say they will not donate to the Haitian disaster?

Why, when China landed in Haiti, did they flaunt their flag as to stake Haiti for their own?

Why, after drinking less than one half of my martini, do I feel giddy?

Why is it that it will cost me over $1000 bucks to have a sitter for my MIL for one week?

What else can I possibly purchase for my Cafe World with my 2 million points?

Why did God take that tiny little 18 month old baby after being rescued?

Drivin' 55 out...

How can others be so cruel! I can't believe the things I have heard from some about the disaster in Haiti! It just breaks my heart!! So I feel all of your whys...why, why, why!

My Cafe in Cafe World will never get any bigger as I can't seem to get more than six neighbors....=( I just keep plugging along with a tiny cafe and it's a good distraction at times! =)

I don't know what to tell you, my friend. But one thing I do know is that we will always be questioning why. Always.

I often wonder myself. Especially about how God Himself is a God of Love ...yet others who profess Him can be filled with so much hate? It baffles me at times. Then I just have to turn it over to Him to soften their hearts and show them His love. I often wonder when those stand before God what He will say? Yes you are My child ...but why oh why did you lead so many others away from Me with a heart full of hate instead of love. Did I not forgive you? Did I not love you flaws and all? Did I not teach you that I am the ONLY Judge? .... many ponderings.

The judging has been horrendous. Do you think I could come down for a week and do it? As a gift to you?

Some things are hard to figure out, and some depend on faith. We can only account for our own thoughts and actions. The rest we leave to Him.

Haiti is such a tragedy. I hope your husband is feeling better. Yikees that sure is a lot for your MILs sitter. You need to ask around and call the ALZ too. You will love the movie when you see it as it is funny.

So very very sad. Except the dirty martini giddy part.

I pray that relief comes to Haiti.

I can't do the dirty martini... but at times like this I always have questions. It seems disasters bring out the best and the worst of people.

A Peak at 2010 for Fellow Taureans

Year 2010 Overview Taurus always gets tagged with things like "pleasure-seeking" and "materialistic." That's probably unfair, in most cases. You're just as good at dishing out the pleasure as you are at seeking it, and who doesn't like a few nice things around? Sadly, there's been just too much struggle in your life the last couple of years when it comes to those two very important parts of your life. Thankfully, 2010 marks the end of that long uphill struggle . Your pleasurable pursuits have been a little more restricted than you'd like over the course of the last two years or so. That's over with now, so ... game on! The big events this year will not so much be a matter of major happenings as they will be things that have been in the works and are slowly revealing themselves . In the last two years, you've put a lot of work into what makes you happy, while Saturn transited your solar Fifth House. Now that those pressures are finally bei...

Christmas in July Give A Way

Image
What better way to celebrate the middle of summer with a give a way for one lucky blogging friend? Just because I want to, I will be giving away a Christmas box with an accordion album. This happens to be my design and I have already given one away last December. Sorry, Kate , you will have to sit this one out! This paper mache box holds an accordion album inside. More than likely, I will make a minor modification to the box before shipping it to its new home. I really love these vintage papers from Melissa Frances Scrapbook . Her collection of designs and patterns reminds me of a little sea side cottage. I can smell the ocean spray right now. These papers bring me back to a time when I think I would have loved to live…The Victorian Age. But let’s not fool anyone, I want all of the modern day luxuries. This paper on the left takes me back to a time when I played with cut outs. I was never a doll kid, but give me cut outs and I was happy for days. S o if you think you would ...
