So, my sister asked for a picture of the shoes. . . and I could not disappoint.

Rockin', huh? $12.99! I'm not sure when I'll be brave enough to wear them - outside of the Women of Excellence Conference in late February (with an animal print theme). The Crowder women are not known for drawing attention to ourselves, and those don't exactly blend in to a room.

In other news, we're watching Potty Time with Bear and the Big Blue House right now.  Maybe The Hubs will learn something - just kidding!  He's been trained for a while now.

I thought I would share the why's of what made me decide to start a blog.  I tend to internalize most things, holding in feelings and frustrations. I have no trouble expressing myself when I write though. I also enjoy reading other people's blogs and am surprised how often the Lord speaks to me through their posts.  One of my requests of the Lord for this year is to grow in my personal ministry.  I'm hoping that I will grow as I'm challenged to share the good and the bad - and that I will be able to encourage one of my sisters/friends as they read.  Or, it will be just plain fun to post pictures and try to make myself laugh every now and then.  So, you can read along or not  - and maybe we'll learn some things about ourselves on the way.

I am a Promise!

I am a Promise! I am a possibility.   I am a Promise,   With a capital 'P'. I am a great, big bundle of potentiality!     And I am learning to hear God's voice. And I am trying to make the right choice. I am a promise to be anything He wants me to be! (My future scientist, artist, engineer and vet are courtesy of the Houston Children's Museum.)

Stupid is as stupid does

Ok, so have you ever had one of those days where things are just messed up?  That was me today. I stayed up too late last night so it was hard to get up this morning.  Had to be at work for an 8:00 meeting and caught EVERY red light between my neighborhood and work.  No big deal, they weren't ready to start when I walked in (with my supervisor) at 8:05.  But, in order to get there even close to 8:00, I skipped making a stop at the gas station to fill up.  I did the math all the way to work - when did the light come on? How many miles had I gone since then?  After work, I planned to stop at the nearest gas station - but, you guessed it, I didn't make it.  Nothing like running out of gas in rush hour traffic! I sat there, embarrassed, trying not to look at the people glaring at me as they passed me - I was stopped just shy of a major intersection.  The Hubs was close by so he came to my rescue - but my car keeps the radio and lights running for 10 m...

Winter Storm 2011

Well, I think we're going to make it. The threat of 5 inches of snow is now past - and we've not missed a single moment of electricity or heat. The biggest dilemma at our house is that the Xbox won't play right now.  Kid #1 continues to ask "What are we gonna do today?" and we finally answered with "Nothing!" I do need to introduce you to the newest members of the family. . . The two tetras have been around for several years and just got upgraded to a bigger tank. They have now been joined by 2 beautiful guppies and a molly.  None of them have been named yet, but I'm putting in my vote today: the black one should be 'Vader' (as in Darth), and I think the guppies should be Phineas and Ferb.  The tetras would have to be 'Peat' and 'Repeat' since you can't tell the difference between them.  What do you think?  (Which is funny that I ask, because a. you probably won't respond and b. they're not my fish to name) I...
