Where are the Bitches?

We (and by we I mean Allison) have been having trouble with the computer again. So much has been happening!! Rose has a new boyfriend. He is very nice and buff! She thinks he is great. Angelia got her hearing checked and she is doing better. The surgery she had on her ear really did the trick. She'll go back in six months for another check-up. I'm doing much better since my "Fat Bastard" post. I'm feeling happy again!! I've lost 3 more pounds. That always makes me happy. Hopfully, we'll be back soon and then we can give all the details. I'm at work right now on my lunch, so this is short (again).

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

THE CLOSET

A woman takes a lover home during the day while her husband is at work.
Her 9-year old son comes home unexpectedly, sees them and hides in the bedroom closet to watch.
The woman's husband also comes home. She puts her lover in the closet, not realizing that the little boy is in there already.
The little boy says, "Dark in here."
The man says, "Yes, it is."
Boy: "I have a baseball."
Man: "That's nice."
Boy: "Want to buy it?"
Man: "No, thanks."
Boy: "My Dad's outside."
Man: "OK, how much?"
Boy: "$250"
In the next few weeks, it happens again that the boy and the lover are in the closet together.
Boy: "Dark in here."
Man: "Yes, it is."
Boy: "I have a baseball glove."
The lover, remembering the last time, asks the boy,"How much?"
Boy: "$750"
Man: "Sold."
A few days later, the Dad says to the boy "Grab your glove, let's go outside and have a game of catch." The boy says, "I can't, I sold my baseball and my glove."
The Dad asks, "How much did you sell them for?"
Boy: "$1,000"
The Dad says, "That's terrible to over charge your friends like that ... that is way more than those two things cost. I'm taking you to church, to confession."
They go to the church and the Dad makes the little boy sit in the confessional booth and closes the door.
The boy says, "Dark in here."
The priest says, "Don't start that shit again, your in my Closet now

THANKSGIVING DIVORCE---
A man in Phoenix calls his son in New York the day before Thanksgiving and says,"I hate to ruin your day, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are divorcing; forty-five years of misery is enough.
"Pop, what are you talking about?" the son screams. We can't stand the sight of each other any longer," the father says. "We're sick of each other, and I'm sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Chicago and tell her."
Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone. "Like heck they're getting divorced," she shouts, "I'll take care of this,"
She calls Phoenix immediately, and screams at her father, "You are NOT getting divorced. Don't do a single thing until I get there. I'm calling my brother back, and we'll both be there tomorrow. Until then, don't do a thing, DO YOU HEAR ME?" and hangs up.


The old man hangs up his phone and turns to his wife.
"Okay," he says, "they're coming for Thanksgiving and paying their own way."

The Fat Bastard

Ok people, I know I've been gone a while. Things have being changing in the world of Jenn. I've just recently been feeling better over a bad, bad break up.
It all started about a year ago when Terry told me that his sister's best friend would be moving into his house. His DEAD sister's best friend! She was getting out of prison, but that's her story. Of course I had the normal reaction. I was pissed!!! Some how he managed to convince me that he loved me. Sigh!
So for months I started to see them "connecting" over his sister. I told myself, "They’re just old friends," thinking they have been friends for years. Not true. When I asked him one night how long he had known her, he said, "Well, they first time WE met her." That was two years before! I knew it was over between us. I was very sad, but not heartbroken. Huh? I mean I cried all the time, but it wasn't always for Terry. A lot of the time I found myself crying for Greg. Huh? I decided to just let myself cry.
For what ever reason, I’ve been doing very well since the last time I saw him. The week in June. He brought back a night stand that was "mine." It was his, but it had my things inside. I didn’t really want to talk to him. I wanted him to say he was sorry and know he wanted the same thing from me. It was mostly small talk. It made me sad at first, thinking that things had gotten to this point. Sad and Awkward!
Two weeks later I was thinking that maybe I was too harsh. I called him to see if we could talk things out. He said he’d call me right back. Riiight! I always knew it was the right thing, us breaking up. It was really doomed from the start. My beloved Greg died and I needed someone to take my mind off it. Terry was just what I needed. So last night Allison and Rosemary finally tell me that they saw him in the mall last week with her and her kids. I WAS RIGHT!! So now what? Move on and leave that mother-fucker where he belongs. In the past. So long Fucker!!! You’ll always be, "Fat Bastard," to me and my family!

What Have I Been Doing?

I have been reading a book called, "Classic Christianity," by Bob George. It explains what Jesus did for us on the Cross. I have always been grateful for how Jesus sacrificed himself for the forgiveness of sins for the whole world, but I didn't really understand how that could be.

Bob George has a really tight grip on what Christianity means. There is only one place in his book that I do not agree with, and that is being gay is a sin. I really cannot believe that. I feel that this man has done a great deal of good works, but has a ways to go as far as understanding God's will, (as do we all). So when I read books like this, I always take it with a grain of salt, but I read them because I, too, am searching for a clearer understanding of God's will.

I obviously couldn't relate the entire book to you on this little blog, but I will tell you what I learned most from it.

When Adam disobeyed God, that made the entire human race become, "spiritually dead." We were not relying on God's will to guide our lives, anymore. We used our free will to decide to stop listening to God's will. Since then, man has been sinning. Even when following The Ten Commandments to the tee, we were still sinners. There is nothing we can do to stop sinning because of our very nature. We were separated from God by our own doing.

So God in His grace, gave us Jesus, the bridge back to God. He was the only man on Earth to be born without that original sin. He was/is the perfect human being. He was, "in" God, and God's will was the only will He followed. He was like Adam was in the Garden of Eden. And like Adam, changed the whole world.

God put all of our sins onto Jesus, and then Jesus was killed. To God, our sins have been forgiven; dealt with. We keep sinning, but God has forgiven us for all of our sins. When that finally sinks in, we realize that we can stop begging God for forgiveness and begin trying to hear His will again. When we hear and listen to His will with our hearts, not just our minds, His Commandments are naturally obeyed.

What stands out the most here for me, at least right now, is that the whole world was changed by Jesus, just as it was changed by Adam. We are closer to being like Adam and Eve in the Garden than ever, and I am so excited about that! If you really think about it, the world has gotten better since Jesus. People have become more and more concerned about their fellow man as the ages go by.

So, THAT IS THE GOOD NEWS! I used to wonder why Jesus being killed on the Cross could be good news, but now I understand. Everything between God and man has changed for the better, and has been for the last 2,000 years. God just wants us to come back to Him. He wants us to live in, "Eden," again with Him, but we must choose to listen to carry out His divine will of love and peace.
