Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween, I hope you all are having a good Halloween and that you all stay safe tonight while trick or treating. You know what ever happened to the good old days of going door to door on Halloween. I remember as a kid dressing up in my costume and going door to door trick or treating. It was so much fun. Now days you have fall festival or trunk or treat. Dont get me wrong those are okay to and a little fun but not as fun as it was when I was a kid.  I know that times are tough and not safe anymore but if you ask our parents they would tell you that is how they felt when they was carrying us trick or treating. I hope that in the next several years we can get it back to door to door trick or treating.

Okay here is a few pictures of Mike and I dressed up for Halloween. What all are you dressing up as.
Over look our jeans and the fact that my hair isnt braided. I wish my hair was long enough to braid it like Katniss from hunger games. Yes we dressed up in district 12 training shirts for halloween this year.

jewelry candle

finally got my website for the jewelry candles going right. they had sent me the wrong link last week. so here is my site http://www.jewelrycandle.com/seatscandles/ if you want to go there and order any thing. they have candles with jewelry in them. tarts with jewelry in them and there is soap bars with jewelry them. They also have wax roses you can buy to and yes there is a piece of jewelry that comes with it. the jewelry prices are different. they go from $10 up to the thousands. So you will never know how the jewelry is going to cost.
I hope I can do really well in this adventure. I am going to try to keep at with the origami owl as long as i can but we will see how long i can last with it.

my first origami owl jewerly party

my first origami owl jewerly party was a bust. and it was my launch party. i had people saying oh i am coming and they didnt even show up. the only ones that showed up was my mom (which it was at my parents house), my sister inlaw, and one of my nieces but my niece and nephew was staying the weekend with my parents so that way my niece could be there for the party. my nephew and dad crashed it lol. my mom and sister inlaw bought a couple of things. i am seriously thinking of giving up on the origami owl since no one really wants to buy anything from or set up parties with me. or even share it with their friends and family members on facebook. i can not tell you how many people i have shared things for and helped out when i could and how many family members i have helped in the past. dont get me wrong i know that times are tough right now. i get that but there was some family members that could have showed up just to support me in this even if they didnt buy anything they just could have just showed up. that really hurts. Truthfully i have been having a feeling that it was going to go that way because everytime i have throw a party no one but a few family members shows up. at least if it is a party for me or mike one they dont show up. but if it is a party for them they all show up. well no more. if you cant show up to the parties i plan for myself or mike i will not show up for the parties you plan. and i will also not plan any more parties for any one else. they can do it their selves or let someone else do it. I am just so tired of being the one that people can run all over. i am tired of being hurt by the ones that say they love me and that they will be there for me. i see now who is there for me and who isnt.

i will keep trying to sell the origami owl stuff until after christmas , so if you want something for a christmas gift you better get to it now. i may change my mind between now and then but so far i am saying that i am not going to be. there is no since in it if i am not going to be making money from it.

the origami owl website is www.elizabethseats.origamiowl.com

i just dont get some people

i just dont get some people. i was in this group for adoption. well i made a post about our fundraiser page and shared the link (main you i have seen others do that) but i get told to delete it. dont get me wrong i dont mind do it but when people start being mean to me about it i will delete and move on but i just dont get how others can make post about fundraisers for this and that and i cant. so needless to say i am not in that group no more and i will not be joining back. i dont think they was given me much support in this anyways so there wasnt no use for me being there. i think we all should support one other and not just sorten people.

doctor appointment today

I had a doctor appointment today. My doctor is like nearly 2 hours from me so i had a lot of traveling to do. She told me that my thyroid levels are in the normal range and that things are good with it. That all the problems I have been having with my neck is from stress and my anixety.  She could tell right off the bat that I have a anixety issue as i just couldnt sit still. i was playing with my thumbs and i do that alot. and she also put me on metformin the extended release since i have pcos and diabetes runs in the family. and she also said that my chholesterol was alittle high and that my liver enzymes was high also. she said that could becaused from a fatty liver. so i guess that i have a fatty liver. which is probably true. i have seen where there is some people over weight that has had problems with a fatty liver. lets just hope that with diet and exercise i can get all this undercontrol.

i will tell you this that if none of the pills she gave which are the metformin and prozac then i will be finding another doctor. but i hope they work as i want to feel better.

when you move to a new town

when you move to a new town, you are basically starting over.  you have to find a job, a place to live, and get things turned on in your new home, and make friends. which making friends has never been easy for me like it is for some. i guess that is just because of being made fun of when i was a kid and i just dont trust people to easy. i am lucky enough to have mike and to have family and friends close by. even though they are a hour and half away i am still lucky to have them. i am lucky to have mike because he means the world to me. i am also lucky that he has a job and that helps right now. i will be glad when i will have a job to help him pay our bills. i have some online things going on and my part time photography business (when ever that starts making me money money. beginning to wonder if it is ever going to take off) i also have the origami owl but i dont know how well that is going to be. so i am going to try to find a job to help him out. he cant do it all by his self. we also have been trying to find ways to cut some bills down. and we have actually been lucky enough to pay off some bills. we have paid off like 5 bills off as of right now. we still have like two bills that needs to be paid off (this is not counting lights, water, phones, and internet) so we have decided that we are not going to get any kind of tv service. we have thought about the hulu but not to sure about it yet. will have to check and see if we have enough of data for the internet to use it at times. but we do have dvds so that is okay with us and plus we can always rent movies from red box.

i have my doctor appointments this week. so after this week i will be going to try to find me a job. i want a part time job because i would still like to be home to cook mike dinner. i so can not wait until we get our stuff from storage so i can start to cook meals and not being eating these microwaveable dinners or sandwiches.  i get so tired of eating sandwiches all the time. and i know mike does to. i also know that he misses my cooking. he told me once here while back that there is nothing like your cooking. dont get me wrong my mom is a good cook and he even said that but he thinks my cooking is the best lol.
well that is it for now but i will try to write more later.

Please please help us

Please help us raise the money for adoption.  You know they say it takes a village to raise a child, well it is going to take a village for Mike and I have the kids we want to have. Shoot we would be happy with just one child. But we need help with getting that one child and we have made the choice to go thru adoption. So please help us raise the money by going to this website https://www.booster.com/mikeandbethsadoptionfund and ordering a tshirt and getting your family and friends to order a tshirt. It is going to cost us around 24900 to be able to adopt. So please help us make our dream come true.

after months of waiting

after months of waiting for the doctor to get my medical records they finally got them. i went to the doctor to sign the medical release form on aug 19, 2013 and waited and waited and nothing. so i called the doctor office and they said they haven’t received them yet. so they said they would call the old doctor office. well they called them twice and they still didnt send them my medical records. so a couple of weeks ago i called them and they said they would fax the new doctor office part of my medical records and then mail the rest. well i waited and waited and so i called the doctor office to see if they had gotten them and nope they didn’t so i waited a little longer and recalled the old doctor office. and they told me that they mailed all my medical records on sept 27, 2013. well they wasnt suppose to mail them they was suppose to fax them and i told them that. but my new doctor office finally has my medical records and i have two appointments next week. one is for lab work and the other is to see the doctor after my lab work comes back in so the doctor can go over everything with me. so glad to have a appointment and maybe i will find out what is going on with me now.

found out how much it is going to cost us to adopt

we found a adoption agency and found out how much it is going to cost us. we are going to need around $24,900. $400 for the application fee $1500 for the homestudy and $23000 for other fees. so it is fundraiser time. i hope we will be able to raise all that we need to help for adoption. once we get our stuff from the movers and start to unpack we are going thru what we dont need or want anymore and having a yard sale. to family and friends if you have things you dont want or need would you be willing to donate it to us to sell in yard sales so we can raise money for adoption. we are fixing to do a fundraiser with selling shirts so that way we can make a little with that fundraiser. i will post the link for that as soon as i can.

will update you more on things later.

first day of setting up my little booth for my origami owl stuff

today was the first day of setting up my origami owl stuff at the little yard sale. didnt sale anything though. had a couple of people say they would be back but they never showed back up before i left. wouldnt have left as early as i did but the wind was blowing my table cloth up and causing things to move around and blowing my business cards every where. so i decided to call it quits for the day. but i am going back tomorrow. that is if it isnt raining so please pray that it wont be raining.  i know of one of the people that stopped by is more then likely going to order something. and i already have someone else wanting to order but they are having to save up money for it.

that is it for today's post. please pray that i will be able to set up tomorrow and that i make some money.

we found a house

yesterday i told you about mike getting another job offer that is going to be paying really good. well we went to that town today to look for a house since he doesnt start until wednesday but his first official day is saturday. he will be working 3 days a week for 12 hours maybe more with getting 15 something a hour. i think it is nearly 16 something  a hour. which is not to bad if i say so myself lol. getting back to the house we found. we got up this morning and left my parents house around like 730 something close to 8 got into cullman, al. (yep that is where we will be living at now) and spent all day looking for a house. we found one that we love from the outside (mainly the size of the yard) but the house was nice to. then we went to realtor office that was renting it out for the owners and filled out a renters application and then had to wait around for the background/credit check and then we got to look at the inside of the house. it is really nice (will share photos when we actually get in it). it is 3 bedrooms with one bath (kind of dont like that idea but it is doable lol ) it also has a pretty good size basement and a little storage like area in the basement. we are going to mail in our despoit tomorrow for the house. the realtor (well renter  broker is what they kind of called him) was not in but mike talked to him this evening and he said we can mail it back in to save us some gas money so that way we are not driving like a hour and half to turn it in. and that one day next week they will get the first month rent and such.  i so can not wait until we get moved in and get our stuff from storage. i am grateful that we have my parents letting us stay with them but we really want a place of our own. a place to really stretch our legs haha.

okay moving on from that and to other things. this weekend i am going to try to have a yard sale and setup a little booth from my origami owl. i got the business cards and the tshirt i order on saturday today. going to have my business cards with me this weekend at the yard sale and i am going to wear my tshirt. will post  a photo of that as soon as i can. i need to get some business cards made up for my photography business and get those photos upload to that website. it is kind of hard to upload photos at my parents because they have satellite internet and you have like a upload/download limit and for some reason it keeps exceeding its download/upload limit. we have been trying to figure out why it is doing that but we have no clue. so we all are trying to limit the upload and download we all do. but i may go somewhere with free wifi serve and try to upload them there. maybe will do that sometime this weekend.

well that is it for now. starting to getting sleepy. took some nyquil about a hour ago and i think  it is starting to kick in. will update you all on how i do at the yard sale this weekend that is if it doesnt rain me out. i hope you all are doing good.
