reality talent shows

HOW do i get sucked in to these reality talent shows?! every time i say, "I'm not gonna watch, I'm not gonna watch" yet here i am watching America's Got Talent and i get all giddy when my faves get thru and so sad when they don't make it!

*sigh* at least i haven't gotten in to So You Think You Can Dance this season hehehe. i stopped watching American Idol years ago thank goodness! enough is enough! :)

nothing

i have absolutely nothing to post about really... i have been neglecting the gym, my asthma's been acting up and my nebulizers being a jerk, just blah blah blah

we attended my uncles funeral Saturday (7/10). it was surreal, sad and just something you never want to do, or see ur family go thru (you can read more at my cousins blog)

no one likes to see the people they love in pain because they have lost their only surviving parent, but there are other family issues popping up that i wont discuss here.... but are just killing me for them. as Jen says on her blog, I know God has a plan, it would just be nice to have some insight on what that plan IS!

please continue to pray for my family. we will probably be driving to Abilene one, two, however many, weekend(s) and help the girls go thru my aunts stuff. it will be sad, and painful, but also another opportunity to be with family and remember the good times :) that is what this past weekend was... it reminded me that, altho my uncle and i had not been close for many many years, we had some fun and great times when i was a child. not everyone gets to have an El Nerdo in their lives ~

prayers

my oldest cousin found her father dead in his home this morning. needless to say the family is in shock. Nyki is actually pregnant, due this fall and almost collapsed when they found him. Thank God, she and the baby are fine - as fine as someone can be in this situation.

her younger sister lives in the Dallas area and is one her way home to Abilene... we are on standby. we do not know any details yet, but those should start coming in soon.

to be honest, I was truly surprised he lasted this long. my aunt died of cancer almost exactly 2 yrs ago, and he didn't really handle it well.

please pray for our family as the girls deal with losing yet another parent.

thank you and much love,
Kendra

blogs blogs blogs

so I read a lot of blogs. they are all so cleverly written... some are quite profound, others terribly sad... but what is my blog?

I am not overly clever. I am not overly dramatic or unique... and I struggle with what to say a lot of the time. I want my blog to touch people, help them if possible... but how do you do that?! It is the question that I have been pondering lately.

I don't know just how many people follow, or read my blog... but if you are out there... what would you like to see eon a blog? What kind of stories or posts do you like to see?

Thanks for your input in advance!

prayers please

hello all, I am asking for everyone to please say a prayer for my sister-in-law, Kristen Thrasher. She was admitted to the hospital yesterday for meningitis. She has 2 small children who need her well, so we are praying for a speedy recovery and a short hospital stay!

Thank you my prayer warriors!
