website

I have finally decided to build my own website. I'll post the link as soon as it is up and running. I'm excited to take the website plunge. This whole bloggy,web thingy is pretty addicting. Gets me out of cleaning the bathroom too!

Doing the Lord's Will

I have prayed all of my life to know the Lord's will for me. He has yet to let me down. Sometimes I think that He is gently guiding me and other times His plan for me is LOUD and CLEAR. LOUD and CLEAR always occurs when I am with my children. The moments spent hugging a child are definitely those LOUD and CLEAR moments. Wrapped in those moments is His will. In that precise moment in time, I am exactly where I am to be, doing His perfect will.

TERM LIMITS!!!

I believe that part of the answer to the crises facing our country can be solved by mandatory term limits for all elected officials. Get these goofs off of the government payroll and let someone else steal for eight years. What is fair is fair!!!

Still Am...

I still am that dreaded conservative. How could you be a true American and call yourself anything else? Never in my life did I buy into the liberal fairytale that government is good. Government is a necessary evil. Personal responsibility trumps all the big government and mammoth forms of useless and enslaving social spending everytime. Abortion rights??? Life will trump that goofy "right" everytime...or should. Gay right to marry? Marriage is what it is. If two people or ten people wish to set up house together, so be it. Why are they calling it marriage? Gun control? I own a few firearms and am always in control of them so what is the problem?

This Year...

This year I will simplify and organize. I will spend much less and save much more. I will liquidate my material life. Less may not be more but less is definately freedom! Less allows for a more organized life. Out with the old, in with freedom...financial freedom,free time, free to be organized.

Merry Christmas!!!

I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas... Just for a little while, doesn"t Christmas suspend time? Like a bit of a cocoon or a warm blanket, we get to forget about the outside and concentrate on inside. And all of this because of a newborn. A gift to us all. Whether you believe or not, may our Lord bless all of you during this season with awe, wonder, hope and Love... Merry Christmas...

a conservative is ...

Me. I am that dreaded conservative. Let me address cultural issues first. I am for life, as in PRO. I am not for gay marriage. I am pro private ownership of guns. I support the death penalty. I am pro school vouchers. Each of the above topics deserve more than a mere sentence in their explanation. I do not intend to do that in this post. In future posts, I hope to explain my position on each of these subjects and how I arrived at such. For today, I wish to speak of money. You know, moola,cash,dough...the economy. "It all comes down to the economy." I only have a degree in Sociology. I am not an economist by trade. But like most Americans, I have a job. And guess what? Money is power. Money allows you to do things. Money can be put to good use and benefit the user. Money can do bad things too. Money can cause harm. Money in and of itself is neutral. I like the money that I earn and want to keep ALL of it. However, I realize that in our country taxes are a necessary evil. We need highways and bridges and fire departments and police departments and the military. These are truly necessary and not evil. What we don't need on the payroll are career politicians and most of the government employees that we have. We do not need government intervention when a part of our industry collapses. We need the FREE market. The FREE market WILL correct itself. I do not want to depend on a career politician for my health care. Unless of course, I will be receiving the exact same type of coverage as said politician! I am for a fiscally limited government. Don't give them too much money. That will give them too much power. I'd like to keep the power that I earn in my wallet where it belongs.
