Jealousy & the PILOTS WIFE....

I'm sure I speak for many PILOTS WIVES when I say I am at many times JEALOUS & would TRADE PLACES WITH MY PILOT IN A MINUTE.

Like today...The photo below is the island where THE CAPTAIN is as I sit here on the ranch, with a pounding sinus headache-DREADING the 2 hours I will spend at Wal-Mart doing my weekly shopping.As I enjoy the fine cuisine of MAC N'CHEESE ALA HOT DOG CHUNK possibly with side of peas or corn. DON'T FORGET.. a gourmet dessert of Dora fruit snacks while wearing my slobbered on WILD OLIVE TEE.

This is where The Captain will dine. WITH ADULTS!!! AND A BEACH!! AND A SUNSET!! AND 80+ degree weather. Oh how I miss him....And after I bathe the tribe, go to Wally World and put away my insanely crazy amount of groceries.

I will fall asleep dirty, probably watching "Thomas The Train" for the cuzillionth time and The Captains last view for the night will be this.. Wishing I was hand in hand with him right now.

I must remind myself many things "HE IS WORKING. He misses me too, He also misses the kids and I could never be away from the tribe, no matter how crazy I am-for days at a time like he is."
I must also echo my thankfulness to The Captain-for sacrificing time with us-his precious ones, to be an awesome provider.
Ultimately my thankfulness to God for the wonderful job he has provided for The Captain to take care of my Wally World bill.
I MISS YOU HONEY!
Maybe we can get a glimpse of paradise from your webcam later!

Hillbillies Fer' a Night!

Who are them dirty faced, ill mannered YUNG UNS?We went yonder to our homeschoolin' Hillbilly "mystery" dinner last night with 40 of our closest hillbilly friends.

The SHOES and GOD!

I had FULLY INTENDED to get photos of yesterday as we testified in front of The Kansas House of Representatives. OOPS-too nervous to take pics. Last year The Captain did ALL the talking-this year I did.

Our Representative introduced the bill and I was the first "conferee" aka speaker for the proponent side (for the bill). There were 2 OPPONENTS to the bill-only one of them got to speak.

Some house members on the committee teared up when BEAN stepped up to the microphone & said his one and only sentence (he came up with his statement himself) ....

"I think this bill should pass because it hurts baby's and it hurt me."

All members were VERY RECEPTIVE to this bill-a big change from last year. They will be moving forward with it PRAISE THE LORD!

What happens next? They have to "WORK THE BILL". Meaning they will make changes/ammendments they feel necessary for a final drafted bill-this takes a while as they have to meet with lawyers and other folks that know the law. Then they will most likely vote next year since the 2009 session ends in a week. If the House votes it in, it then goes to the senate. If it passes the senate & is approved and signed off by the governor-it becomes a law. THIS TAKES A LONG TIME!

God was with us there. Real emotion was shown and I am so thankful our lawmakers-their prayers and all of your prayers.

Also making an appearance were my 5 inch satin stilleto "LUCKY HEELS". I wore these on The Tyra Banks Show and they let me keep them after the show. The painful walk to the state capitol in these puppies was worth it!
