Really!  How could anyone think that the Nintendo Wii isn’t the best thing next to sliced bread?  I obviously am spilling yet another Ms.Conception!  I can’t tell you how much fun our family has had on the Nintendo Wii.  My daughter who absolutely hates sports loves boxing of all things.  While I will have to say, her form is quite funny, she usually comes out the victor, and it is cute as all get out to watch her.

My son is quite the baseball player and bowler.  The competition rises everytime our family takes part in a game or two.  We also sit in front of the tv and sing with the High School Musical game!  We have enjoyed it very much and would recommend it to everyone!

The Nintento Wii is tons of fun for the entire Familii, try it and you will Sii!

Girl Friends Aren’t Important

Posted on October 8, 2008, by Kim, under Relationships.

For any of you who know me, you know that I am about to dispell this as a MAJOR Ms.Conception!  Today, I have had a number of conversations with “my girls”.  I don’t know why today would be the day where I could see a number of my girls face to face, and spend hours on the phone with them today for various reasons.

It is days like today that makes me proud to be a strong, feeling and caring woman.  A woman who loves her family and tries to serve them to the best of my abilities, which at times I feel like aren’t many. I had to touch base with my girl who just got back from a funeral out of state and then had the priviledge to seek council from a great friend in the morning, and right after that, my phone rang where I could pass it on to another girl friend.  I then was able to apologize for causing hurt feelings, by just being careless.  I met my friend and her little babies for lunch today and then was able to practice with the girls from worship team tonight….A busy day, but submersed in a circle of girls that are my girls!

I am quickly reminded that without my girls I would be lost–Granted, Jesus is the ultimate friend, but he is so relational that I know these friendships please him, so without His presence in their lives pouring out into mine, I would infact be lost.

Tonight on the way to practice, I stopped at Starbucks to grab a cup of coffee and I just enjoy reading The Way I See It the quote was from Madeleine Albright, “There is a special place in hell for women who don’t help other women.”  Now, while I don’t believe that and I’m sure she probably doesn’t either, but she is making a point that we are, as women, suppose to stick together and help each other out.

This is a long post, but it has to be said.  Friendships are golden and not to be handed out like candy.  They are special and should be cherished.  I am very excited about this weekend, as my best friends from grade school all through high school and I are going to get together.  We’ve known each other for 29 years!  I can’t believe it’s been that long, but it has and these are friendships that I NEVER want to lose.  I am very much in love with my friendships and will always thank God for them…If you have a close friend, please let her know how much she means to you!  If you don’t have a close friend, please for whatever reason you don’t, find one and cultivate a friendship!  You will be so glad you did!

The Relief Bill is Going to Save the Day

Posted on October 6, 2008, by Kim, under Politics.

I am a frequent reader of the site www.rightchange.com and it is very imformative.  I just found this on the site and it is really eye opening. 

Just how much is $700 billion??

  • It is almost $150 billion more than has been spent on the Iraq War since the invasion in 2003
  • It is equal to $2,300 payment for every person in the United States, and more than $100 for every person in the world
  • It is enough to buy 233,333 Super Bowl ads
  • It could build 400 space shuttles
  • It could purchase 3.5 billion iPhones
  • It could purchase 700 billion items from the dollar menu at McDonalds

I have a hard time believing that this bailout is really going to benefit anyone for the long haul.  This is a global issue…not just the responsibility of the current administration. 

On a much lighter note, I hear Barack Obama is a huge fan of nuts, especially Acorns!
