On a Warmer note

This summer on our family camping trip. Little Mack was the one that got ate up by the mosquitoes. Poor little guy but he was a trouper about his swollen face and red whelps all over. On the last day as we packed up....I found Isac and Mack in the truck waiting..with Isac playing and treating Mack as a King>>>This is King Mack Isac said I'm his servant. I'm taking care of him. I thought what a sweet big brother to care for Mack us we ready ourselves to leave thanks Isac for caring for your brother when know one watching;)

oops if you are just starting this tale you have to go to the post just before this

Okay I don't know what happened but if your starting to read this you have to go to the one before it make more since not that it's going to make since. I remind you again the content is going to be strange and unusual. As I was saying what is a person to do. I try to gain my composure to go be with family. taking pizza and trying to act normal as we could for the boys or for all of us it was a time that seams so surreal is that the right word like your watching a movie but is real in my travels to bountiful (not knowing that Pete was on his way to the new hospital good thing) but as I got in the car I realize I could cry and scream out as I pleased and no one would care so as I approached downtown slc I was prompted to pray for Pete with every being of my body and I thought what a more appropriate place than close to the temple of God My plees for Pete that all the power of heaven be with him as an army to go to him to battle for his life I also ask for myself that I be bond up in the armor of God to give me the strength to battle what had to be in front of us all. So thankful I asked for that armor because I had no earthly idea of what lay ahead of me. As I returned home that evening with Pete given 2% chance talked to Jen and thought it was time for bed but before doing so I had gone outside as I did I heard something coming from the front of the house then two hispanic guys go running by me in our yard I thought thats weird and not right bad feelings again as I had told Jeff the day before it was 7:34 I tried to call Jeff but he didn't answer so I fell asleep on the couch in front of the TV until 11 pm when I heard a knock at the the door not wanting to wake up I try to not hear it but I think it was a help me I heard that got me awake but then I heard the person go upstairs. again the overwhelming feeling something is not right upstairs in the house so I get up to check things out not going upstairs but outside I observe the following 1st the renter running out the house on his phone yelling for help I JUST FUCKED UP he was saying thats weird go back in the house go back out to look again when I heard thuds coming down the outside stairs see renter dragging a big duffle bag out of the house with all his might with a weird roundness about it that made me think body. now I know something is not right upstairs I call Jeff get Nellie telling her what is happening guy pacing in and out call after call for someone to help him. not knowing what to do I just kept watch when I knew he was in I went out this had been going on at least 20 mins on the last trip out I noticed about a 3 foot piece of duct tape covered in blood yes dripping in blood never in all my life had I seen such a thing of course I had already picked it up before I realize what I had my hand on I screamed Nellie screamed for Jeff he would tell me to call 911 I would say no that is not what I want to deal with after he said it about the 3rd time I knew I must make this call even if I was afraid they would think I was stupid they did not think that in fact they stayed there with me till the police arrived needless to say the guy got away just as the police arrive his dad I guess came to his rescue when the poloce arrived they asked if I knew I had a broken window no I did not as I took them in the house we started to find blood through out the house we went up stairs to his room finding his door busted in bed moved in front of the door with one spent bullet casing on the bed by one other bullet it was at this time they asked me to leave and every time I would come back they would ask me to leave again not nice I thought the step dad of the renter had showed up wanting to know what happened that is what I'ld like to know and didn't any of this people care when I would say I don't need to be dealling with this or I don't want to be dealling with this my son in law was given 2% chance to live this is not what I'm to be doing now I need to think of him they got the stepdad to call the renter he would not cooperate with them to come back to see that he was safe beings we had been told by renter that he had been beating up by some guys I do know that the police had names and numbers detectives in my house for 4-5 hours my house was more or less a crime scene as the next days went by more things came to surface things like his mother told me he was mixed up in the mexi mafia they had been after him but thought he was in a safe place our house I guess you can run but you can't hide one renter in the front had notice hispanics all around our house and yard for hours that night I guess when he got home he was jumpped in the back they took his keys to car and room he got in the house I guess fighting for his life fight went from kitchen when one renter thought he would go out and break it up until he heard someone say you have a gun shoot me he got scared and left as did the girl in the front he said he heard the fight go to the living room where the window got broke then it went up stairs with renter busting in his door of his room to the safety of his gun he moved the bed in front of the door but the fight continued in his room I'm told it was a loud brutal sounding fight that had everyone hiding behind locked doors until the police arrived and questioned them from what I understand it just kind of quit with running down the stairs. Now I've just slept through all of this if I would of heard it I probably would of went upstairs and got hurt. other pieces to the puzzle I do know after 11 he was washing his bedding why are you doing this his girlfriend took it days later I had noticed the windows open up in the laundry room but waited for the police before I looked bedding off his bed was being washed with the windows open after googling his name found out he had a traffic violation in may ran when pulled over he was caught and charged with pills package to sell and 16 grams of cocaine why was he rent from us???????not sure. we found his drug log 2 to 3 pages of names items sold and money owed this guys was not doing small deals so with that thought maybe he was dragging about 135 lbs of dope out of here and not some little dead Mexican the thing is the police don't tell you a thing the only thing they said was we had an incident that was drug related no shit Sherlock anyway it is so funny how life is and all it felt as if I had to go battle satan him self for I was bond up in the armor of God just fighting to my left and fighting right in what ever battle was thrown in front of me but he didn't trick me this time to turn away from the one and only God we have because in all of that my whole being said I had to be fighting for Pete which I kept that up the whole time as I had to deal with other things at hand. I just hope that the next full moon goes much smoother than this one. and in the end all is well all is well. okay again I feel better to get that out whee the tales of Kathys life anyone want to write a book??????I've got alot more of life's journeys

I HAVE A STORY TO TELL

So many places to start. first I think I need to say this ......everyday of your life you're getting ready for tomorrow..you just don't know in that everyday life are we doing the right thing to get through tomorrow.. and then in a whirlwind of events in your life you look back and say what was that all about or did that really just happen? huh what I'm confused please just someone make me understand but at no prevail I have to sort it all out on my own.. so here I am at the new form of release blogging tales till my hearts content. some my not be for the weak of heart so if you have doubt of being brave at heart to hear all then stop now because things are going to be said here beyond belief but they are true and one of my life's stories I've fought I many of battles in this life and I think I've come out of each with a lesson learned and a stronger person in the end I just hate that refining fire to burn so hot. The past two weeks have been unexplainable..some small things leading up to this......people at work customers wanting be to be huggy when I helped them doesn't usually happen.....visit from cousin over joyed me and made me happy:) phone call from 1st boyfriend about his gift of the old letters and pics of 40 years ago long time ago....so full of warm good feelings it scared me I even said to someone I work with that I was afraid something bad was going to happen I felt so good I shouldn't say things like that should I...so many events...visit it the er brought the weird nurse to my help one that was dressed right out of the 5o's white hat dress hose and shoes whole other story.....feelings of somethings not right calling Jeff on Saturday to tell him somethings not right with one of the renters I can feel it seeing people with the renter that did not feel good saying to Jeff I don't have a reason today but maybe tomorrow which when tomorrow came I did indeed have reason....not being able to sleep that night with overwhelming feelings somethings not right then we getting up having a message from amy that someone was in ER don't call till 8am the longest 2 hrs to spend.it find out about my son in law Pete had a massive heart attack. what is a person to do but to try to gain composure

I forgot the Pics

Is there anyone else??????

thats son is told that he looks like Jesus? It's kinda of a family joke or something. just a part of my life I would like to share. Yes I've come to the conclusion it is true my son looks abit like the pictures we have all seen. There was even a time when his church acallings was to make sure the church building was locked up after meetings one night as he was doing just that a member came by the church building and thought he had seen Jesus in the building roaming the halls with a call to the bishop he found out it was just Bro Walker abit funny. Not only does he look like Jesus I know for a fact he pretty much thinks of what Jesus would do in about every event in his life. I worry sometimes as he brings strangers home to give them a job for a day or two so they could send money home to their families or still picking up that person along side the road on that long dark hi way when prompted. He is as tight as they come when it comes to his money but he's always helping other people in his strange weird ways. He's my little hippy child what can I say . I love him more than he will ever know. He has come to his mothers need many many times and for this I'm grateful. Sorry I have to ask some of the things I have to ask. I think he may sometimes know me better than I know myself Thanks for giving me back something that maybe with both thought we had lost 7 years of life. So proud of the man you have become amazed when I see the beliefs you have glad you know how to follow your heart and your dreams I love you Jeff. And for what ever reason people think you look like Jesus I guess I'm happy for that, if they only knew how much you are like Him they would be amazed as I am.

What's a person to say???????

As I pondering the events of the past week I'm overwhelmed with thoughts. I have a need to get some of this out. So here I go maybe some will read or maybe they won't. These things are special and dear to my heart so bear with me as I try to express whats on my heart and in my mind. First a BIG thanks to everyone that has been here for all of us. We have had people shouting out to the Lord from all over this world it is amazing to say the least. Not only that the windows of Heaven were opened and we received a MIRACLE and that is were I'm overflowing A God so loving to grant us this blessings. Thanks is just not powerful enough there is no words know to man to express this things. So in my frail yet strong state I'm trying to get the brain to connect with the fingers so I can tell you a bit of what I feel. I would love to be running around shaking people to wake them up that a miracle has happened right here that the Spirit of God was here with us so close at hand in our need with out a doubt I know that when the time came that many were busy in the fight for this mans life on this side of the veil and from beyond the veil. Brothers and Sister we have A LIVING GOD and He is not alone there are armies that are in heaven waiting to come to our needs as they did as they busied themselves with the works that needed to be. I had asked that all the Power of Heaven be given to us and it was it was that is where I get overwhelmed to know all the forces that were with us was giving without a second to spare. there are some out there that judge me and I don't care if someone wants to judge mefor they do not know me or know what is in me. So I would like to share with you that I have a very strong testimony of the truthfulness of the TRUTH of a LIVING GOD that loves us dearly that he has a SON JESUS CHRIST that lives this day we have been given the gift of HOLY GHOST that we will not be alone but we need to listen for the promtings and act on those things, I know we have the restored CHURCH of JESUS CHRIST we have the keys to the PRIESTHOOD and all the Power of Heaven if we have FAITH to receive this things we have a living Prophet this day to watch over us I love all this things beyond measure I'm grateful with every being of my body heart and mind for the things that are so freely giveno me and my famiy My family is the one of the big blessing I've been given in my life I feel so unworthy at times that God has trust me with the special spirits I have that are called children and they give me grandbabies that I'm continuely blessed okay I feel better now. so this is my testimony and I say this things in the name of Jesus Christ Amen

FINISHED FOR NOW....

I think we stand out in the neighbor in a new way....Jeff has finished the outside for now as he said. I think it looks real nice like the house can breath better after being freshened up abit The changes being green tan paint and pokie bushes in front GONE thank you Jeff. new red on front and side window sills front porch new WHITE trim and pilliars the porch floor was refinished this summer. stained and sealed he did have green paint left overs from the past he had to add to the circles on the front he has had alot of input from passer-bys from our hood they like it so if we get the yard under control next year we should be up there..the neighbors might have to pull out the paint brushes to keep up. NO MORE GREEN PILLIARS:-) okay Ray if you look at this you have to say something.........I want input....the house is saying "How do I look"? I'm wondering if Jeff is going to take those work clothes with him same thing he had on 10/24 lol and about every other day too.

Why do some projects make you happier than others????????

Does anyone remember this??????One of my many treasures. I have had this stool/ottoman for around 23 years. It belonged to my GREAT grandmother Mamma Grace Oral Spears Weed Chapman (had to enclued Weed because that is my line) she gave it to me saying I should take it because I had so many little butts (4 kids) along with it came a piece of fabric she had she was going to recover it but never did...the fabric was nice old fair good condition piece that she had cut off the back of her couch (it had always been against a wall so was clean and had no wear.. I not sure what she threw away if anything. because at the time when it came to part with couch her mind saw something useful so she saved it with an idea in her head then planted the seed with me. I used it and usally had it covered with something but it has served me well. So I discided to follow through with her plan. little to my suprise was when I removed the bottom covering and saw inside to it's unique design in it's construction again I say she made it and I would pretty much guess the supplies came from her scrap wood pile piece of who knows all nail together covered in ( if you look through the knot hole and cracks) what appears to be an old wool quilt and handed picked cotton on one side there was a hand drawing of what I'm guessing is her plan sketch out for something. All of that thrilled me be yond words It made me appreciate her more than ever she was quoted once in the chickasha star you can always make something out of nothing. Indeed you can Mamma I'm glad I have this merger piece of furiture it's worth more to me than money can buy but to someone else I'm sure it's a piece of junk and long ago would of made it's way to the junk pile. I'm glad I found the hidden treasures inside of the woman that spent her life making the best of what she had making something out of nothin' and all her needs were met. I was very glad I finilly finished it I must say I think it was I of the easiest things i ever did it was kinda of weird because all I had to do was cut the top piece folded reminder of the fabric in half cut it sewed 1/2 in seams and it fit perfect to the top with out any measuring cutting at all never have had that happen and I'm guessing I probably never will again either it worked perfect no measuring Is that normal? Has that ever happened to anyone else or was I being guilded by the knowlegde she hadalready giving me thanks for all that I have from my Mamma

Okay I''ll make it easy!!!!!!!!

here's a before shot.....now can you see the differents???????

CAN YOU SEE ANYTHING DIFFERENT???????

NOT FINISHED YET BUT TELL ME WHAT IS DIFFERENT?????????

Isac

Oh what do I say about Isac my oldest grandson.........so many thoughts go through my head....but most of all I'm so thankful that we have Isac he has blessed us all I think....he was the sweetest baby and I'm thankful I had so much one on one time with him in his early years. things change years go by and Isac is growing up I've realize that at 11 1/2 we are kinda the same size I have an inch or two on him in height but I
m thinking he may have past me on the weight thing...I realize that in another 11 1/2 years Isac will be a young man out of hs could be on or returned from a mission could be married could have a 5 year old we just don't know but I'm anxious to see what or who he becomes..some might think he is a stinker or something.....but I think he is one of the best kids I've seen these days..I see kids his age and again I'm thankful for Isac.....he's just a GOOD kid..I think he has been giving the tools and love that he needed to become who he is.....I thankful that Isac was the 1st grandchild he took me to the next step I my life the best place I've ever been a Weema......what I could say about these loving grandchildren that God has so graciously giving me....the one thing I can say is I've never in all my life felt so loved as I am now what a reward it is to be a parent because if you are lucky you will become a grandparent some day like me......I have always loved my kids so much.......so can I just say Thank You for all these grandkids.....oh I got side tracked......Isac.......I love you and I'm so glad you are in our family the 1st grandchild.

FUN AT THE HALLOWEEN PARTY

I think everyone enjoyed the party. I did but of course I love it every time we are together. I would like to say thanks to Arin and Troy for having us. I know we wrecked the house but you did invite us, so at was to be expected. It was nice to have the garage so we didn't trash the carpet with our painting and the spook goops didn't get spilled. It was fun and I hope everyone else enjoyed it too.
