God hates Fags? Why am i so cute?

Wow looks like i lost a couple of followers since my last post about Westboro Baptist Church..If it is because they don't agree with what i said, im ok with that :-)

So i have been ran off my feet since last week Thursday and im ready for a day in bed which probably wont happen till the weekend. I had a day off training in Nashville and yesterday was my first day at work :-) I loved it!!! It was so much fun. I hope it stays that way hehe. Aside from that i have been babysitting a lot and we were preparing for our day in Nashville with the Patriot Guard Riders against The WBC...i feel sick typing their name or putting it in my mouth so ill just call them Morons (Sorry if anyone is offended i've just never felt so much hate towards anyone before)

After i heard about the morons coming to Nashville to protest at Sgt. Kevin Baldufs funeral i felt so much rage that i really wanted to be there to support Marine Baldufs family. Who in their right mind would protest at someones funeral? These people are just sick and twisted.
So Monday at 0730 we met a couple of the Patriot Guard Riders at Walmart to convoy down to Nashville. We invited some friends to join us. We were in 2 lifted trucks with big American Flags hanging out the back. I can't really explain how i felt. It was a sick, angry, happy, nervous feeling that i had inside. Originally only 200 people were expected to be there but because so many people had said on FB they were coming, Nashville let people use the fairgrounds to park their vehicles and there were ambulances and stage coaches shuttling people back and forth to the church.We arrived there just after 0830. As we were with the PGR we got park at the church where all the PGRs were meeting up. There were already some people there but not to many. We all gathered together, said some prayers and then everyone picked up an American flag and started to build a wall around the church. It was so hot outside and my feet were burning from the sun but it felt great standing there knowing what it was for. More and more people started turning up..a group of 5 bikes, a group of 30 bikes, a group of 50 bikes...as time went by the crowed got bigger and bigger. I started feeling a bit overwhelmed, specially when the family was escorted into the church parking lot. A million things were going through my head. One question i was asking myself the whole time "Are these Morons really going to show up?" The more people i saw turn up the more i grinned because i knew there was no way these morons had a chance gaining anything from this. I mean their church (not that you can call it that...it is more of an inbred nutfarm) only has 77 members! There were people handing out cold bottles of water to everyone and making sure everyone was ok. Someone had donated a huge RV for the older veterans so they didn't have to stay in the heat. The atmosphere was just amazing. As time went by i started asking myself how many people were there...there were just too many to count. The people driving by in their vehicles were beeping their horns and sticking their thumbs up and shouting out their windows. The only toilets that were available were the ones in the church. I didn't really want to go inside but i had drank so much water because i was stood out in the sun for so many hours i really needed to go. I was nervous going into the church. Should i say something if i see family members? Shall i just walk by? It felt really awkward and i felt a little sad. When i came out the toilet i noticed the glass door ahead of me...My heart sank...There he was, Sgt Kevin Balduf in his casket with a flag draped over it =( Sgt Balduf left a wife and 2 kids behind. Again i asked myself what goes through these morons heads that they really want to protest at this funeral. This was a Soldier who gave his life so they can live free. They sure as hell don't deserve the freedom this Soldier was fighting for. How can people be so heartless?
I went back outside and noticed 3 Army soldiers stood on the hill in uniforms holding American flags with pride. It was a beautiful site looking around seeing hundreds of people turn up. As we were all gathered around the church Sgt Balduf's family came around and shook every single persons hand and thanked them for coming. It choked me..i felt like crying but i did my best not to. I watched Sgt Balduf's wife as she walked around and said thank you. She seemed so brave. You could tell she was torn apart but i think it made her feel a little better to see all the support. At around 1200 we decided to leave to get some food as our friend wasn't feeling to good. After we had some food i suggested we take a ride to the Islamic Center where the morons had said they would be to protest before the funeral. Sure enough we saw them a few hundred feet down the road but we couldn't tell how many there were. The plan was to drive by as slow as possible with the music turned up so loud that no one could here them chanting their stupid songs and rev the engines on the trucks. As we started driving up all the anti protesters started clapping and whistling. As we drove by i wanted to jump out of the truck and give them a piece of my mind but i just smiled and waved my flag. These morons are a bunch of lawyers who fund their sick activity's by filing law suits against people who get violent towards them. We drove past them twice and the second time round i noticed a bunch of gays dressed up holding signs..it did make me laugh. One guy held a sign saying "God hates fags? Why am i so cute?" most of them looked like students. On our way back to the church i checked on FB to see the updates about the anti protesters..I was shocked...2000 people had turned up, including 900 bikers plus the 300 that were just rolling up. WOW! And news was..there were 3000 more bikers on their way from East Tennessee. I couldn't tell how many morons were there but i know there were no way near as many as the anti protesters. We made our way back to church and saw the morons had got to the church. They were surrounded by 100 or so police..The bikers and all the other people on the opposite side of the road were shouting USA, USA and Go Home. The bikes were soooo loud that while i was filming my sound stopped working. The atmosphere was tense, you could see the anger on peoples faces but luckily everyone stayed calm. As we went to park our friends power steering went out so we hat to go and stop at O'rileys. I was a little bummed because i wanted to get out and carry on supporting because thats what we went there for. By the time we got back the morons had already left but we still parked the trucks and got out. The story was someone had slashed the morons SUV tires so they had to hire a car and a driver to get to the church. They lasted a whole 7mins at the church before they asked to be escorted away. Guess they didn't realize what was going to hit them. Oh i forgot, 3!!!! 3 morons turned up to Nashville to protest! 2 old ladies and a teenage boy. WBC seriously sent 3 people to protest and didn't even have the balls to send any men..guess they were scared of the bikers. Also supposedly the driver they hired didn't know who they were till he drove them to the church and saw the cops around them and when he had asked an officer what was going on, the officer told him who they were and he turned around and said "Fuck this im out of here" and he left! At around 1500 everyone started to pack up as Sgt Baldufs family had requested some alone time at the church. Words cannot describe how i felt on this day. Even just writing this i don't think anyone will understand. You really had to be there.

Here are some pictures that i took and others took and also a video when we were driving by:

The video i did, sorry about the volume like i said my phone cut out because it was so loud. At about 1 min you start hearing bikes as we drive up closer to the morons and the anti protesters. The morons are on the left and the anti protesters on the right.

Patriot Guard Riders vs Westboro Baptist Morons!

So it is official, Me and Jon have been talking about it for a while but we joined the Patriot Guard Riders yesterday and we will be joining them on Monday in Nahsville to support Marine Sergeant Kevin B. Balduf's family at his funeral.

The Westboro Baptist Church Morons are planning to protest at the funeral and the PGR is there to prevent them from disturbing when Marine Sergeant Kevin B. Balduf gets laid to rest. No body, not Kevin nor his family deserve this. The Westboro Baptist Church are a bunch of pricks and i just have no words to describe how appalling i find their acts. Did these people really have such a bad life that they say and do the things they do? They step all over the American flag, they say things like "God hates fags" "Thank god for another dead soldier" "God hates America" "God killed your son"...The list goes on. Westboro Baptist Church protest at military funerals and the Patriot Guard Riders come in with their bikes, cars and trucks when requested with American flags to block off the protesters so they can't be seen by people attending the funeral. When the WBC sing their stupid songs the bikers will rev their bikes a little so the singing can not be heard. The PGR is also there at home comings and other events to show their support. Here are some videos you should watch..

To find out more about Westboro Baptist church google it. Also here is a link to their official website: God Hates Fags. You can watch a whole bunch of videos about them on youtube too.

I need to get going but i really wanted to post this today. Have a great day everyone!

I keep losing my car..

2 days in a row i have parked my car and not found it again. I have felt like a brain fart the past couple of days because i'm constantly dropping things or just doing plain old stupid things lol. I was walking around the Walmart parking lot with my cart like a headless chicken today because i had no i idea where i left my car. I decided that i was going to bake today and for those who know me, know i can't bake for nothing. I was going to bake some cupcakes and put some yummy icing on them and add some colorful sugar. The frosting that i picked up was nearlly 4 dollars but i really wanted to bake so as i went to find eggs i walked past a shelf that had Funfetti stars and stripes cupcake mix for 1.25!! and the frosting with the stars and stripes candy was only 1.25 too!! I put everything i had picked up before that and just took the stars and stripes cupcakes. I wanted to surprise Jon with some cupcakes but he came home early so that didn't work out. I have to say, they taste AWESOME! For the first time out of all the times i have attempted to bake they actually turned out really good.

Now that they have turned out i am more motivated than ever to bake bake bake!! I did decorate some other ones too but im to lazy to upload the pics off my phone.

It is only 2.45pm and i feel so tired. I'm going to finish my post and then go and sit out in the sun for a while. Which reminds me...I bought a really cool camper chair thingy that supports breast cancer. I really wanted the black one with the pink ribbon but i figured black in the sun outside wouldn't be such a great idea so i got a white and pink one with a pink ribbon on it. It was funny when we went to Dick's sporting goods the day i bought mine because i sat down in one and Jon sat in another chair that had the little sun shade over it and i said to Jon ''Mines cool, it supports Breast Cancer!!'' I guess he wasn't to sure what to say back an came out with "Well mine supports SUN SHADE CANCER!!" I was in stitches! Sun Shade Cancer? lol he does crack me up.

Well im off. The dogs are passed out on the bed, i need to do some washing and then im going to relax. Hope you all have a great day!

It is Monday and i promised to blog!!! And im a murderer =(

I have just got done cleaning and cleaning and more cleaning. I had to get online to post something for Jon and remembered i was going to blog. Then for a second i thought ''meeeh i will do it another day'' BUT nope...i said i want to get back into it and now i have the time i will. So you probably want to know whats new in my life. And where do i start??? First off i have a new fave song for the summer... Zac Brown Band - Knee Deep.

When this song comes on in MY CAR (YES i have a car now and my drivers license but i dunno if i already mentioned that but i will go into that in a second) I have to turn it all the way up, open my windows and feel the breeze and just reeelaaax. It just makes me feel happy when i hear it lol.

Ok so noooow to my car...Jon bought me a mini!!! No he didn't really haha i wish but he bought me a 2004 Dodge Stratus. I love it, has a nice sporty tone to it :-) I get asked if it's purple but it's not, it is Maroon or Burgundy or whatever..just not purple lol.

 

Theeeen we finally got Jons truck lifted and put some pretty tires on it

Apart from that not much has been going on. I have been job hunting which finally paid off when i had an interview on Saturday at Pier 1 Imports and i got the call today that i got the job. Im so excited! I LOVE that store and the people seemed so down to earth there. I have to go there again on Thursday to sign the contract and stuff. It is only part time for now but that is ok because i still have a bunch of babysitting jobs which are paying really well and i was also going to look into going back to school.

2 weekends ago we went to Nashville to go canoeing with our neighbors. We decided to take the dogs with us..we didn't even make it 100ft and we all fell out the canoe and our stuff went floating lol. It was great fun and it was luckily the only time we fell out. We did have a few close calls because the dogs would not stop moving. A few weekends before that we went into Down town Nashville which i have wanted to do for so long. It is so awesome. 

So there are some pics of our little adventures in Nashville. On our next trip i want to go to Nashville Shores water park. Our pool isn't ready for the summer yet but we want to have it up and ready for July 4th as we plan on having a big party. It has been so hot here lately, mid to high 90's! It is about time to after all the bad storms and tornados and all that.

I need to confess on what happened last night when we started to clean out the pool. Man i feel terrible just thinking about it. So because the pool hasn't been in use for so long we had some frogs move in which obviously had a good time and filled the pool with tadpoles. They are growing up and ready to be frogs now too and last night Jon fished a big one out and put it on the deck. I took a picture to send to my friend and totally forgot about it till i slipped a little and heard a squishy sound and realized i had stepped on the poor bugger and mushed it =( Urgh it was such an ugly sight. I can't believe i killed it.

Anyway i wanted to upload a whole bunch up pictures but blogger keeps uploading them side ways and so i have to upload the pics with tinypic.com and then i have to type the stupid scrambled word and then copy and paste the link and it is really driving me crazy so over the next couple of days i will just keep posting some pics.

Oh 2 more things before i finish todays post and go and eat some ice cream and relax..Me and Jon are Auntie and Uncle again to a gorgeous little boy called Zachary Ryan!!! I can't wait to meet the lil man whenever that will be. And i wanted to share a pic of our new comforter set..it is sooo compfy! I can't wait to finally finish our room..oh and my bathroom still isn't done lol.

Pretty huh!

Anyway im off..I will try and keep this thing updated as much as i can...Ciao Frens <3

Paint and Tornado warnings!

My wonderful husband gave me a bunch of money yesterday so i can get paint and accessories to renovate our bathroom attached to our bedroom! I spent forever at Walmart with my new neighbor (god it is so nice to finally have someone around here). I ended up just getting paint and towels as I'm not willing to pay 20$ just for a bin and then another 30-40$ odd for the rest of the set. I felt bad spending the money as i know my love really wants to get his new tires which are now super cheap on offer. Hopefully we get our taxes back soon. Im so excited for the colours i chose. The walls are going to be  a bit lighter then GRANNY SMITH APPLE GREEN and the towels are BLACK..woop.
I shall post before and after pictures but it will probably take me a while. I have to get rid of all the old ugly gold towel racks and the horrible wood toilet paper holder and soap thingy and stuff. The toilet will eventually be replaced to. We looked at Home depot yesterday and they were like 80$ which is way less then what i expected. I cant wait to start on it. Lets hope i do a good job haha.

Well apart from the fact i am super excited about painting im not so excited about the fact the siren just went off on tv that we are on Tornado warnings today. It was so nice yesterday. We went down to the creek where everyone met up to swing and jump into the river and have a cold beer. I have been down there many times before but yesterday was the most fun i had. This morning i went out to let the dogs in the backyard and it was beautiful and now (an hour later) the sky is grey and it just looks miserable. Lets hope its just a little wind and nothing else.

Oh and i bought a defusier thingy for the bathroom where you put the sticks in and they soak up the juicy stuff in the bottle to make the bathroom smell nice but i cant figure out how to take the cap off haha. It says take the cap off and put the sticks in so i did but there is a plastic thing still inside the bottle and i cant punch a hole in it for the sticks. Im pretty sure im just having a blond moment lol.

Well i hope everyone had a good weekend. I know i had a good one =) Im off to clean and the start on my bathroom eeeeek.

I am still alive..

Wow i feel like i haven't been on here in forever. Sad how just a week ago i was on here 24/7 and now im back in America and i have abandoned my blog :( Hope you guys didnt miss me to much. I think this will only be a quick update as our AC unit is broken and its bloody freezing outside so its like minus degrees in the house and i can hardly feel my fingers while i am typing this. The travel was HORRIBLE!! The days when i enjoyed traveling are history..I just can't enjoy it no more. I even broke down and had a panic attack at the airport in New York..Welcome back!! NOT. I will have to go into detail another time but put it this way i was trying to hold onto the plane because i thought i was going to die.
The job front s*cks!!! i went to the job center yesterday as i have been applying for so many jobs and i just can't seem to get a job. Now i need to get my transcript translated before i can even apply for any of the CYS jobs on base that i really want. God knows how much that is going to cost but im also going to do my CPR and First aid stuff soon too. I am also looking at volunteering at the Youth Village in the mean time.
Hmm what else is going on..The AC unit should be getting fixed soon, Jon called and said they are coming today instead of tomorrow. Thank god for Homeowners Warranty! 75$ deductible and hopefully a brand new unit as ours looks a little fried. Jons friend came by and said there were sparks coming out of it when switching the temp and we kept having to run it on Emergency heat which has burnt the whole side of the unit..ooops. But there was no other way to get it running.

I need to go haha im to cold. Even with a jumper, dressing gown and blanket im to cold so im gonna take a nice hot shower. Will be back soon!!!

CleanTheDish-a-Phobia

I dont know what to call it. While i am typing this i am sat here with a grossed out look on my face haha. This has nothing to do with being lazy and not wanting to clean lol. I actually think i might have a mild case of OCD but anyway that is not important. Since i was younger i have had an issue with cleaning dishes or loading the dishwasher. I think im traumatized from when i use to stay at my friends house which was disgusting. When id stay at her house she would ask me if i could help her clean the dishes. She would NEVER scrape the food off the plate and just let the water get really gross full of food. (Im gagging while i type this) I dont understand how people can be so disgusting and live so messy. A few years later i was on holiday in Canada with my parents to visit g-ma and g-pa. After we got done eating a meal i was asked to do the dishes because my mum has really messed up hands from all her allergies. It was a NIGHTMARE! I avoided holding the kitchen cloth as much as i could. I was literally holding it by my nails trying to clean the dishes. I guess it doesn't help that im a picky eater to and anything i dont eat grosses me out too. Anyway my dad was a little mad at me because i was 'acting' stupid so someone else did it. When i load the dishwasher in my house i scratch every little piece of dirt of the plate and wash it till it is clean before i put it in the dishwasher. God forbid something yucky i dont like gets on my finger while im doing it. My mum laughs at me all the time. She finds it entertaining to watch me do the dishes. I had to write about this just because i have just got done loading the dishwasher and they had tuna salad for Dinner and it smells and its just gross and i got the juices on my finger :'(

Anyway i have to get going again. I need to get my washing done and pack my suitcase and do my big sister a favour. Ohh and today is the last time im doing the Share your blog Sunday..It really isn't worth it. but if you want your blog featured on here and its not just some junk then i dont mind if you message me. Ciiiao

My Dance Star

Destiny had another dance performance today at the Spring Festival in MG. It wasn't organised well at all and people were just being rude and freaking out. Me and dad used our brains to get inside and grab a seat before the other 200 parents and friends came in to stand by the stage to watch. We had awesome seats until some stupid people decided to stand in the center of where everyone was sitting..Did they care? Did they check! Ah well i managed to sneak to a different table and lay low and film.

For those of you who dont know, Destiny is my 10 year old little sister. She has been dancing for a year now and at the begining of Feb she made it into the contest group and has been training every Sunday with some other girls. She also dances with the "Kids Clubbers" twice a week. Destiny seems pretty worn out at the mo with late nights and dancing 3 times a week. I wish i could show you a video of her and the contest group because their dance is AMAZING but obviously im not allowed to film it as someone could steal their moves. They have a contest on May 8th which i wont be here for anymore =( But i will get a video of them from somewhere. I really hope they get far, last years group came 2nd so we will see. Here is a video of her and the Kids clubbers on the stage. The stage was horribly built and was shaking like mad lol. As you can tell during the Vid someone randomly coughs right into my ear THANKS. And 2 fathers decide to just stand right up front and take pics. Destiny is wearing a white jumper (Sweater for Americans) and green trousers.

This next video is another group from Destinys dance school that take part in contests, they are called "Baseline". The girl at the front with the crazy high ponytail is only 17 and is Destinys dance teacher! She is awesome!! The reason some parts of the dance seem odd is because they usually dance on way bigger stages and some people are missing.

The weather was awesome today too. After watching the dances we went to see my mum at work and went to JHQ to grab some stuff at the NAAFI. I use to work for NAAFI but in a different place. I saw an old friend of mine, Britta. It was so good to see her again and i saw my old manager too. Looks like everyone has traded stores again and he is now working there. It was so weird being back in that place and my old manager said that if i ever come back to Germany for good to call him right away and he would give me my old job back. Kind of made me feel good knowing that i must have done something right that i can always go back if i wanted to. I also saw an old family friend of ours today, she managed to put me in an urgh mood. She asked me when i was going back to the States and when i told her Wednesday she looked at me as if to say "Your making a big mistake girl"..Well guess what im old enough to make my own decisions and if i happen to fall on my face i will pick myself up OK! God i know people are worried about me but why not just support me instead of being like that and making me feel crap? Never mind here are some pics from today..

The red Tractor is a Porsche Diesel..Woot woo! And see the old Lady on her scooter thingy...She made my day! Lol..Well im off to sort my room out a little. I hope everyone is having a great weekend!

P.S Here is a Link to Destinys dance audition vid: Audition Video She is in the middle all in black.

Dedicated to Anna

I think we have had to many of these lately haha..

Splish Splash i was taking a bath

Its Friday!! I have just had a nice long relaxing bath and now i want some popcorn. I am not a bath person, i dont do it very often and i dont know who else does it but i ALWAYS shower after a bath. And seen as im seing my Love on Wednesday i decided to pamper myself a little, including shaving those monsterous hairy legs of mine...

HAHA no they are NOT my legs but i wasn't far off. Man i can't even use the excuse that it is winter anymore teehee. But its all good because im excited for some warmer weather and sun so i can start catching some rays. I hate being so typical British...as white as can be. I painted my toe nails dark purple too and sometime before i leave i will do my finger nails. It is so wierd that i paint my nails now. I never use to like it. I always use to think it was to girly. I can't wait till i can start packing my suitcase but these last couple of days are draaaaaging.

On another note does anyone else find it hard to be excited about anything when you go online or the TV is on and all these horrible things are happening around the world? I get frustrated watching the news right now, i feel bad for everyone in Japan but it is so obvious that they are trying to cover up the truth and everyone is telling a different story. I do really hope they will get the situation under control but really..One min its all fine and dandy the next min it is all over and nothing can be done. Yesterday everyone was celebrating the HEROS that volunteered to stay at the Nucelar powerstation and today it was said that they got ORDERD by the president to stay there. Oh and then NATO wants to butt in to Libya and threaten that any time now they would be ready to invade and Bomb!? What on earth..and of course the Brits and the Americans are all over it. WHY? Have they not lost enough money and soldiers in to useless stuff like this? Dig a deep hole put Gadaffi in a dog kennel and bury his ass..Im going to stop now lol im sure everyone else is just as sick of this as i am.

Oh there is actually something im super excited about..Anna banana at Beautiful Disaster has got me a birthday present!!! I will have to wait till it arrives in the States and then i will share with you all what it is. Eeeek i love prezzies. One week and a couple of hours till my buuurfday =) And it doesn't look like we will be going camping because the weather forecast says its going to be cold. Oh well as long as i am back home with my Love and my dogs that is all that matters <3
