Are you fed up???? I am

OK here it is................
I keep reading...Oh Obama, did this and he did this and now we are going to have this and when this happens you are going to wish this.. BS!
OK here it is again.....................
We had a whole lot of bad choices made for the past..... lets say 15 years. We had great times and we all were enjoying it and we all partook of the greatness that was out there. ( mind you republican and Democrats) WE the Greedy Americans did. Yes you! Did you pay cash for that car, boat, trailer, trip, house, vacation home, jet, dinner, or, what ever else you indulged in? Did you save for a rainy day? No ? Really you are kidding me??
Did you refinance your house fifty times in the past few years??? You told your friends that the rates are so great right now I am going to refi. But what you left out was the rates are so great and I have equity in my home once again and I am going to pull it all out and and buy what ever my little heart wants because I am not looking to the future..This bubble will never burst. I look liek I have hit the big time look at me. I will get a raise this year. My company is doing so good there is no way this will not last another 20 years.
Look Mr Jones down the street. I just bought a new boat now I am in his same league as you. "Oh look Mr Jones I have a boat just like yours want to go play at the lake today?" The thing you did not know is Mr Jones, bought that boat cash. He saved and he managed his money because yes he was planning for the future. Not the I got to have today's. Mr Jones had his money working for him. Not like most that are slaves to their jobs , money, and bills. Most people now are slaves to their debt and Oh NO! Darn that Obama..Look at what he is doing. Look look he is spending money and he is making health care reform and he is just doing all those awful things that are going to make it so our country goes down in flames and we all burn in hell. Wake up! We the people did this to our selves.
Bush made some decisions in the loan market that would allow people to get into homes and live the American Dream. Pretty soon, anything with a heart beat could get a home loan. Bad credit BK, no job, in college? You don't make enough to buy that 500k home. Lets state you make 10k a month. The bank will not verify lets take out a liars loan.. Oh no job? Really? come to XYZ Mortgage Company we can get you in a home today. Don't laugh it was true. You could go sign BK papers at noon and get a house loan at 4. I know I was in the business when all this was going on. The problem was not Bush. He was not the idiot. It was the Greedy Americans that exploited the loan programs found the lope holes and signed their names on the dotted line. Yes that would be you! Bush did not tell us to package the loans up put 3 A loans in a bundle and 10 B loans and sell it as a A rated mtg bundle. No we Greedy Americans did. They make the laws we find the loop holes to benefit us...
Welfare.... no President made or tries to make this program a flop. Just us Greedy Americans they put these programs out there to help a certain person in a certain area of unluckiness in there life. That most of us hope we never will be in. We wrecked it the best way we know to take advantage of it. Exploit it. All the government programs that usually do not work we break them by finding a loop hole and take it to the cleaners. Wow are we such great people? Wonder why the Mexicans want in this country. They see us living the life. We steal and cheat to get what we want. They do that in their country and go to jail, in America you get elected, or made CEO of the Company .Then we scream foul when they come here and learn from us how to take advantage of the system.
No you really cannot afford that 500k house it does not work for you, you cannot buy every toy out there if you have to charge it. Shocker... Now the banks almost crashed because of Greed but we bought the stuff signed our names to the loan, and then bought the stock our loans where all messed up in. Then we bought all new cars because loans where easy to come by and you could drive away today for nothing down.. Then what no your kidding me....I can not get a loan?? My credit is maxed??? My debt to income ration is 90%. The banking system is going to fall? There is no credit left to lend? I am not getting a bonus this year, No raise, no new company car, I have to pay for half my travel expenses? Now what are we going to do???? We can not blame Bush he is back in Texas. We cannot blame ourselves that would just not be right. Oh here comes Obama lets pin the tail on the Donkey. There it sticks! We got em! For the next 4 years lets make this his fault instead of ever looking at what caused the problem so we can learn and not repeat. Oh really just like in the bible we are caught in a cycle of feast and famine? Really we never learn? Really? Wow are we cavemen or what?? Wake up! Obama is trying to fix the mess we all helped make. He is doing it the best way he knows how to. Seriously no President really wants to drag this country down. They do the best they can with what they have . I admit not everything is all grand that he has done but seriously he is not trying to bankrupt us. We already tried that. He is seriously trying to help us. Maybe the right way maybe the wrong way. But we made the mess lets try and help clean it up. Blaming your brother when you were little when you did something wrong did not work then and it does not work now. And if it did.... shame on your parents for letting it happen. There is no perfect way to clean up after your kids everyone does it different. Some come along with new ideas and try a new concept and seees where it gets them. Sometimes it is better sometimes it is not. No one is perfect and no one wants to really be on the street living out of a dumpster.
If you lost your job did Obama really fire you, or is it that no one is buying your product because they are all cutting back because they did not live with in their means and save for a rainy day?
Really no bonus this year? Did Obama take that away from you? Is he buying a new car with it? Oh no your company needs the money to keep a float? Wow I would rather have a job then a bonus. Really you had to down size your company? Oh I am so sorry. Is that also Obama's fault he is making you pay taxes. Darn him. I did not know we paid taxes before... that is a crying shame.... taxes what is this world coming too. You can not go to Europe this year on vacation with your whole family? Really Obama did that? Oh he is taking his family instead? Did he come to your house in the night and take your plane tickets? You better call the police. All my savings are gone. Really Obama took your money? Really wow! He went right down to your bank and stole the money? You did not dip into it because you over bought and had to pay the bills after your 12 months no payments no interest did you? oh no what am I thinking No one would do that. It is ...Obama he took it. In broad daylight he scratch his name on your withdrawal slip and stole it. I did not know we had such a terrible man as President.
Come on people you played a part in this whole mess too. Lets not blame anyone but ourselves wake up and get busy trying to save this country from ourselves and our own issues that make us think we have to have it all now. So you have to cut back a little or your job was loss. Obama did not take it from you the economy is bad because of Greed. Lets all do our part and elected honest men and women with our same values and ideas and lets take this country and make it the best we can. It takes all of us doing our part to make it work the way our forefathers meant for it to work. I do not think George Washington would sit and blame someone from his desk. He would have got up raised a party and made things happen. Get up make something happen. Live within your means, save for a rainy day, get out and vote, make yourself productive. Screaming never got anyone anywhere... The only thing it will get you is a head ache and lots of people that will soon get sick of listening to you. Obama is trying...If he is not doing right by you get out and let him know what it is you want. You do not tear down a person to get them to see things your way. You talk reason and treat them with respect. We are all God's children and no one deserves to be torn down, made fun of, or ridiculed all day. Everyone is someones child and they are loved. If they are doing right or wrong someone still loves them. We need to remember that we want our child to be treated with respect out in the world. so lets treat all parents children with respect also!:)

Spring Break 2010

Spring Break was a blast!! We went to the sand dunes with The Greg Searle Clan and The Mike Capps Clan. Annette and Scott came to for a few days. It was such a great time.
Learned how to play a new game, went on lots of 4 wheelers rides. and had great fun watching some Oak City kids jump a car off the motorcycle jumps. How that car drove away back home was amazing. I hate Ford cars but really maybe they are built Ford tough.
We went out west one day, played at the sand dunes for a few days, had great camp fire fun, and just hung out and relaxed.

Blogging and Facebooking

I have not blogged for a while. I facebook all the time. More then I should I am sure. But it is just so fun to meet up with old friends and see what they are up too. Oh and of course the new ones too.:)

I have had a boring winter I think. Just working on the house ( don't kid yourself. No I am not doing the labor) and now I decided I want a deck off the Kitchen so that is going to take some time too. I do not have any new pictures to post really. That is how boring my winter has been. We have gone to Saint George a few times and just hung out and relaxed but nothing more then that.

I did see the cutest picture ever for a baby shower this past week on facebook. I'll post that pic it was so cute. Would love to have this cake made for a baby shower. Is that not the cutest? Some one needs to have a baby so I can have this cake made. Ok who is it going to be???? :)







So that is really all that my little boring life is up to right now. I am kind of just hanging out waiting for warm weather and summer. I am getting the ideas together for the field trip club. Talked to Sarah Osmond and she gave me a good idea to put on the list. So if you have any let me know. Getting the list ready so us girls can go out on the boat soon (when it is warmer lots warmer) and have our planning meeting.
I took these pics from my front door. So when I say lots warmer I think we all know that is going to be awhile till that happens. But look a the bright side. We still have time to fake and bake. :)

Just something to post

Having Fun in Life

I think that I am starting to drive my husband nuts with my fun fun fun attitude. Kind of funny but not really. I love to be on the go and doing doing doing....going going going....He just looks at it as spending spending spending..!!!
I think that he gave me the trip to Europe for Christmas thinking that it would make me limit my fun fun fun. It in some ways it has... But really people who are we kidding you can not keep a lively girl down. I just am trying to plan a few things and he keeps telling me. "You want to do that rather then your Europe Trip" No but I do want to go. Men why do they always try to have the upper hand. Really you only get the upper hand if we keep our downs letting you then gain that upper hand. If men really knew how much we do control them I think they would all just give in and live a much easier, peaceful, and happier life. Don't ya think???
I really just think that life should be enjoyed. I keep telling Ken you save I play it really is a good combination . What more could ya ask for? Not much... if you ask me.
I am really excited about this year. I think 2010 is going to be a great year with great fun and great friends.

The year of 2009

I can hardly believe that the year has come to a end and another year is here on our door step. It has been a heart warming, heart breaking, life defining, and fun year too. So much happened this year. I went through all the emotions that a person could in a life time this year.
All in all it was a good year with a few set backs. Parts of it I would love to repeat parts I would never want to repeat. I had to make a few hard decisions this year that some did not understand and judged me for it. Others stood by me and helped me through a rough time. I found out that right is right and wrong is wrong no matter how you look at it. What you allow in your life can effect others and you need to always live the Principals of the Gospel. I learned that from the saddest moment that hearts can heal and good will come out of a terrible loss. Life goes on and it may be hard but Heavenly Father loves us all and he is there with us. I formed a Summer Field Trip Club. It was allot of fun and I really enjoyed it. This year brought great blessings to my family and I. The journey of 2009 was a good journey. I learned much and I am better for what I went through and stronger for it also. I am very blessed and I hope that I can bless the lives of other this coming year.
I have allot of goals for 2010. I am ready to start the new year. I am really excited for all that will come my way this coming year. Changes are coming to my family, I have a list of fun things I want to do this year, and most important I just plan on being a better person this year.
I am so thankful for all my family and friends. With out them and the Gospel my life would not be what it is today.
Life is truly what you make of it. Choices you make today can effect you for the rest of your life. So let all of them be good ones. Pray often, love much, and hold your love ones close. I love you all and hope all of our journeys this coming year are good ones.

Christmas

I am so excited for Christmas. It seems like I just posted 75 days till Christmas on my Facebook. Wow time does fly. I have so much fun planned this Holiday Season. I guess that is the story of my life...plan...plan...plan...
I have just been enjoying my family for the past few months. We just celebrated Nicholas 18th Birthday!! That was a fun time.. I cannot believe he is already 18. I am going to have a hard time with him leaving home. Taylor is 16 and just past his drivers test. He is all kinds of excited. I am all kinds of scared!!!!
Chrissy and her family are doing great too. Went over to her house today and helped her decorate for the Holidays. Yes she is my daughter and she did not deco till today..It is sad!

Ken bought me a new tree this year. Nice very Nice. He is such a good man to me. I am very blessed to have a man that does as much as he does. I am currently working on a trip to Italy for my Christmas present. I think that I am there. Just the 2 of us. No kids!

So much going on so much to do. i will post pics later. Also I updated the Field Trip Blog too.
