Hello Everyone!

Hey Everyone!

Sorry for not writing sooner, I have been really busy!!! :-)

My mom just had a baby girl, and I have the responsibility to help around the house with the rest of my siblings, while my parents are out of town. ( They went to Duluth right after the baby was born )


I am finishing school this week, and the it's going to be a SUMMER Vacation for me! :-) I can't wait, this will be my first year to have to school during the Summer.

I will try to keep posting as time goes on, but as I said, I have a lot to do around the house, plus school.

Hope you all have a wonderful week!

God Bless,

Update Post!

Hello everyone!

Sorry I have not written on here the past few days, but I have been very busy, plus I wanted everyone to see the Give-A-way! :-)

This post includes the "wrap-up" of the 28 Day Challenge, and also includes what's going on in my life.


Day 23: A way in which you want to be remembered.

I want to be remembered as someone who loved everyone, who cared for people, and who shared with others. Might sound dumb to some of you, but I don't want to be a person, who was remembered as a selfish, greedy, cruel person.

Day 24: A movie no one would expect you to love.

The Movie would have to be Tron. I love it for it's graphics, plus the whole movie is exciting.


Day 25: A recipe.

You may not expect me to hand out a recipe, but my Sister made these for me, and I think their the greatest! :-) Here you go!

Chocolate Coconut Candies


1-3/4 cup Confectioners Sugar

1-3/4 cup Shredded Coconut

1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk

2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

2 Tbls. shortening


1. Combine sugar, coconut and milk. This should be really thick and sticky. Roll into 1-inch balls and refrigerate for 20 minutes.

2. Melt chocolate chips and shortening in a microwave on HIGH. Stir and possible melt more at 10 - 20 second intervals. Stir.

3. Cover coconut balls in chocolate and shortening. Place on waxed paper and let harden.

Day 26: A childhood memory.

Yet again, I would have to say owning Chickens was an awesome Childhood Memory


Day 27: A physical feature you love.

I love to work out. Not like running or jogging, but building muscle! :-)


Day 28: Hopes, Dreams and plans you have for the next 365 days

This is going to be a big one!

I hope to get my license this May.
I want to buy a car by the end of Summer.
I want to find another job by the end of Summer.
I want to do better at school.
I want to lose some weight (isn't this every one's goal? :-)  )


That's some of them, but I don't want to bore you with to much writing!


WHAT'S UP WITH YOUR JOB?

I quit last week, and I am no longer working at Jet's Pizza, I decided the atmosphere of people wasn't good for me to be around all day. I might find a job this Summer, but I might just want to relax. I kinda got "separated" from my family a bit, not spending any time with them.

Thanks for all your prayers! God bless,

Josiah
