Let's hope St. Peter ain't asking for proof of income!

I went to God's food pantry today with a friend...and I have to say that I was disgusted at how people were being treated there...they turned away 4 people because they didnt have proof of income! What the hell?? They are there to get food because THEY HAVE NO INCOME! These people were turned away and told to go to the unemployment office and register for work and get a paper saying they did so....THEN go to the food stamp office and register for food stamps and get another paper saying they did so AND THEN bring both papers back to the pantry and they would see if they could get them some food....THEY WOULD SEE IF THEY COULD GET THEM SOME FOOD.... What the hell have we become? Bureaucratic, holier than thou, ass kissers get to sit behind a desk and point their gold encrusted fingers at those less fortunate and shame them for being down on their luck in front of a whole office full of people who are patiently waiting their turn to be embarrassed and called out by the higher eschelon of muckety mucks!
I couldnt believe it...I thought about grabbing the lady behind the desk and screaming at her that these people (who had children there) were there to get help...who better to help them than GOD'S FOOD PANTRY! But Nooooooooooooo not unless they can show they have income or are trying to get income....
“Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.” Matthew 25:31-46
Nowhere in that verse does it say....you better bring proof of income or proof that your looking for income or dont come at all....
SHAME, SHAME, SHAME GOD'S FOOD PANTRY....SHAME!!!!!!
If I ever need help I'm going to the catholic church...they dont turn away unemployed people...they feed them and help them get warm clothes....and no one has to show proof of income!
What a crock the pantry is...my food donations are going to the catholic church and any other soup kitchens in town...I want my contribution to be used on those who really need it...not held for ransom until they comply with bureaucratic rules....SHAME!

Sons of Anarchy!!

Ok folks...tonight makes 4 episodes into the 2nd season (its on FX by the way at 10) and I am already dreading the finale! I know its coming....and its like I wanna watch every episode but my gut knows each episode brings me closer to the end of the season....its a vicious cycle but I love it just the same!
If you've never watched the show believe me when I say you are missing out on one of the finer things on TV! This show is fierce, its violent, its scary, its intense and even romantic in its own way...you couldnt ask for a better hour of television...specially since The Shield retired...Kurt Sutter is the shit when it comes to awesome TV! The cast of this show is awesome...each part is played by these actors as if they were truly the characters...its unreal how each one makes their part real.
I have to say that even though each character has their own appeal...Tig and Chibbs are my favorites...there's something dark and sinister about Tig that makes him oh so sexy...and Chibbs...well his accent and his smoldering hottness is about all I can take....call me crazy but I love them both....Hell I love the whole show! And Gemma...well lets just say I would so like to be like her...she is bad ass...and I must admit...she is a hottie!
Everyone I know watches Sons of Anarchy...its awesome...if you havent watched it you should give it a chance....Tuesday nights at 10 on FX!!!!
Let me know what ya think....

You Never Know When You Might Need Some Help...

I have found that after losing everything to help out my step daughter and her drug addict, drunken, waste of skin and oxygen boyfriend who is now sitting and hopefully rotting in jail as I write this for a warrant, felony child endangerment and attempting to allude a police officer because the asshole ran from the cops and left his 2 year old behind....I have found that helping people is a good thing but some people expect it from you because either 1, they are your family or 2, they think the world owes them because theyve had it hard....
Well I've dealt with both those types and neither one is ever grateful but if you help people for the thanks and applause then you're doing it for the wrong reasons....HOWEVER, I would help any one of my friends or family until I had nothing left...which I have.
My question is this....why is it that now I am at rock bottom...no home...no money from my paychecks because I have to pay up everything I'm behind on and each week Im more behind than the last....why is it that some people take that as a sign to try and cheat me out of what little I have left...or make me feel like I am a worthless piece of scum because I have nothing....?
I will have something again...its only a matter of time...Im like the little engine that could...mostly because I have...I keep chugging along until I reach the top of the mountain, the only difference is this time I wont be heading full steam ahead into the downhill pits....lol.
So while I'm here saying....I think I can, I think I can....believe me I can...and I will...and if you treat me like a stupid idiot who is desperate to sell all my belongings for chump change and broken appliances you're the fool because I know its only a matter of time before I'm back on top and I'm gonna be using those appliances and things instead of saving to buy new ones because someone cheated me out of the ones I already had!
I healp people whenever I can because its the right thing to do, you never know when you might need some help in return....
When have you needed help or helped someone in need?

Adios Patrick Swayze...

Today I, as with many, mourn the loss of one of the greats....Patrick Swayze. This was a man who set the bar for all my future boyfriends after I watched him in Dirty Dancing and then Road House. To me this man was my youth, every weekend for a full summer after Dirty Dancing came out my friends and I would rent it and watch it back to back leaving only enough time to rewind the tape. We taped the the movies dialogue on cassette tapes so we could listen to it everywhere there wasnt a vcr. I can quote all the lines from that movie, word for word and dance every dance step by step. Point Break made us all want to be a surfer and hang out on the beach, the Outsiders made us all want to rumble, Ghost made us all believe that love lives forever. I want to believe that now.
To his family and friends...my thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of loss and thank you for sharing this great treasure with us for so long. For the other fans...lets remember this icon and honor his memory by sharing with the next generation all the laughter, love, honesty and general bad assness that he gave to all of us...may his memory and his art live forever!
R.I.P. Patrick Swayze, you will be truly missed and you will always be truly loved!
This weekend will be a Patrick Swayze marathon at my house...every movie he ever made will play in honor of this great artist...I encourage each of you to do the same...a tribute to a great and talented and handsome man.

9/11

Today began like any other...except for the reminders of that day eoght years ago...
Every time I wrote the date today I remembered where I was that day and how I felt...every time I think of it I remember...
Every day I say a prayer for the men and women who are risking their lives for our freedom, every day I say a silent "Thank You" to the veterans that have survived terrible wars only to come home to the thankless masses who judge them for what they had to do...
Today as with all the other days I would like to say "Thank you to all those on active duty and all those who have ever fought for the freedom of our nation...and most of all Thank you to the those who gave their lives so that we can go to the church of our choice, buy the things we choose, and say what we feel without the threat of the firing squad!"
Have you thanked a Veteran or active military personnel today?

What's your plans?

Worn out...this weeks been the pits...and believe it or not it has nothing to do with work! Work is a good thing lol...
The one bright highlight was the season 2 premiere of Sons of Anarchy!!! It totally lived up to all the expectations I had...I knew it would be awesome and I was not disappointed!!! So now every Tuesday at 10 thats where I am...sitting in front of the tv watching SOA on Fox!
2 months left until New Moon comes out!!! Looking forward to that!! I have always loved the Vampires and nowadays there so much hotter than they used to be.
I had a terrible toothache this week which made the days more crappy...I have eaten enough Orajel to numb an elephant but I think its getting better...at least its bearable...only used the Orajel twice today and not once did I want to slam my head in the car door! Yay!
Im signing off now...Im taking a couple of Excedrin PM's and Im off to sleepy town...tomorrow is a new day....and it's Friday!!!!
What's your plans for the weekend?

How come when you're in a hurry...you're always behind?

What I Wish...

For every day I live to see I have at least one moment where I say to myself or whomever is listening "I Wish...", what I wish for is different every time and sometimes there's more than one wish on my list and yes they are all things that I really dont need to survive or even be happy. I can live without those things that make life easy...hell, I do it every day. What I wished for today was something I hadnt ever remembered wishing for before...I wished for one day where I wasnt afraid...fear is something that can and does hold us back, it keeps us tied up in knots wondering when the worst is coming or whats waiting for us around the next corner. I'm afraid every day that I wont be here when my husband needs me most, that I wont be able to provide what my grandchildren need, that I wont be able to keep peace in the family, and most importantly, that I wont be able to be me, have my own opinions and desires that define me.
You see, I have an opinion on most everything, and believe me its not a popular one in many cases, but its mine. I have boundaries that I wont compromise no matter what and every day I am forced to hold those lines because of someone trying to push their opionions through; I wanna be bold and brave and I wanna be loud and heard...and wanting that makes it harder to stand my ground.
I guess in the end what I wish for is for the courage to stand up when the world says sit down, the ability to hold firm to my beliefs and opinions and stand my ground when challenged, but most of all I wish to be fearless...
What do you wish for?
