I'm a Horrible Mom

I took my dog to the vet today, and there was a dog just like him there....who was a BORDER COLLIE!!!

All along I've been telling people that my dog is half Australian Shepherd and half Lab. Good grief!

In my defense, that's what I was told at the pound when I paid 40 dollars for him. You would think they would at least tell me the right breed of dog!

So know I'm pretty sure my baby is a runt of border collie....oh well :(

Life and Friends

I really went back and forth in my head whether or not I should blog about this particular subject, but I finally thought in my head, "Kelli, you never know who will read your blog, and maybe God will use your words for that person." So here it goes....


Last Sunday, my mom told me that one of my good friends that I went to school with at Cornerstone had been killed...Wow. Talk about so many emotions going through me. I didn't even know what to think.I took it pretty hard the first couple of days. I had never dealt with the death of someone I knew who was close to me in age before, so I had alot to think about. I started thinking about alot of the memories from when we were in school together and all the funny things that this person would do. I remember when we were in elementary, we got it in our heads to go out on the playground and dig in the dirt all the way to hell because we wanted to see what the devil looked like! Talk about a Christian education, huh? Anyway, I just didn't know how to deal with my emotions, and I would jsut start crying out of nowhere.

Sarah, one of the best friends I think I have ever had, came to the rescue. She called me on Tuesday and asked me if I wanted to help her plant some flowers. I thought it was strange, because I'm not the flower-planting type of girl, but I agreed. After we finished planting her three flowers, she told me that she read somewhere that being out in the sun and getting your hands dirty in the soil, planting flowers help with everyday sadness and depression.

I still feel sad over my friend and I don't think the situation is fair, but I know that God has blessed me with other friends who will help me when it seems like I don't know how to help myself. I hope that God has blessed you with friends like mine.

Its Been So Long...
