The Bee



Look at us we are Bee Girls! As most of you know I am an Independant Home consultant for the Longaberger Company. I just got back from my Big BEE convention in Columbus, Ohio. I go there when I can and get training and learn from others that have really done good things in the company. Everytime I go I have a Blast. This year was a great year. I didn't know anyone I ws rooming with. (I knew them but we had just met) I picked the classes I wanted to go to and went to them. Sometimes with them and sometimes without. I learned alot and hope to be better at this job I LOVE!!!! I saw old friends that I see every year. Like Mike, he works in the home office (which by the way is shaped like a basket). I saw Greg who purchases the logs we use to make the baskets. He saw me and smiled and said to me "You, don't go anywhere!" I have to say it is nice to be remembered from people you only see once a year. I also saw Steve, he is a weaver for Longaberger. One year I was talking to him at the bee and found out his birthday was when the annual bus trip was. We had got to talking and I told him I wouldsee him that weekend with a treat. He smiled and chuckled, I bet he thought I would forget. Later that year when the bustrip went to ohio I brought a pail of candy treats for him. He was very surprised to see me! I see him yearly now too. He helped me make my basket this year at the bee. (Well, he always helps me make the basket) Actually this year he made me really make the basket. Everytime I make a basket I let the weavers do it. I like to stand there and talk to them watching them as they work. This year Steve said no that I had to do it. So I did! This basket really was made by me! I had a great time and can't wait to do everything I was taught! But I really just can't wait for next year to do it all over again!

Alot has happened in the last two months. First let me start with Sarah and her DEBUT singing. She is in a class where they learn from music and they put show on. She loves singing (I have no idea where she got that just kidding). I knew she could sing but I didn't really know she could really sing. I was sitting in the audience that first night of the show all proud but when she got up to sing the last song of the night I was BLOWN AWAY! She had me speechless. I hope she makes you speechless as well. This class is really a nice class. She has alot of friends in the class. I have been given glances into the woman Sarah is becoming and it takes my breath away. Wow is all I can say! It doesn't look like the video is going to work tonight so I will have to do it tom. after I get home from work. Wish it would save! I was going to put up one of Noah as well but I guess I will have to do it tom as well. He got to sing at Church with the Adult choir. He sang Away in a Manger verses 1 ...

How can my heart hurt anymore? What do I have to learn to stop the heart ache?

How can we say goodbye to someone that means the world to you? How do you let them go? The pain and hurt that we feel is so unreal. Grandma left this earth November 17, 2019. 9 months, and 15 days after Mom left.  Two women that helped to mold me into who I am today, left me.  They are no longer here to ask questions of, or laugh with, learn of the past from. They left. The pain of losing them will never leave me.  How could it?! They taught me to be the women I am today.  Grandma was someone who always excepted me. Always showed me how to love others. Listen to others.  Care for others.  Really, just to be there for others when I am needed.  The pain I feel is indescribable.  I have never had my heart broken like this before.  Never had to face anything so hard.  You see, I was so Blessed when it came to losing people I loved.  The first person I loved, that I remember losing, was my Grandfather, George. G randad was someone ...

Happy 4th of July!

Okay so today is the 4th of July and I was looking for a cool picture of a flag to put on my blog. I really didn't see on I liked. But I found this picture of the sky I took when we went to Maryland to visit Aunt Betty a few years ago. I think the sky may have looked like this on that morning Francis Scott Key wrote the National Anthem. Today is a great day for this country. I am very proud of the service men and women that have served our country. Willingly giving up a part of their lives for us. Sometimes giving up their lives for freedom. So Thank you one and all. Sometimes saying thank you just doesn't seem enough. Sometimes it is more than enough. So if you see someone in uniform just say thanks. You might just be surprised by the reaction of the service man/woman. I remember riding by the Armory a few years ago and their was a group of protesters on front of the armory. They were screaming at the men in uniform. I was angry and I could tell Mike was as well. He wanted to ...
