Purpose

When I think about my blog I wonder.. what can I say, what's it for, should I always be positive or just real or what?? So I guess I'll just be all those, since it is about me and I am not always positive :)

Anyway, we live in a very rural part of Morgan County, Alabama and a very small community- Union Hill. I love the school and the fact that we live right next door to Grammy, Brian's mom and her husband, Poppy...who just broke his leg and it's in the middle of where Brian and I work (Brian works in Cullman and I work in Guntersville). But there are a lot of not-so-good things about it too. We have several neighbors with kids and I don't always have the time, patience or groceries to take care of them all the time. There is a neighbor and it just seems like they only come over to eat...I think they have food at home, they also don't really want to leave unless they have to. I know that I should help people but sometimes it seems like they and their parents are using me. I wonder if my parents ever felt this way?? What should I do. I want my sons where I can see them so I know what's going on and because I don't necessarily agree with how the neighbors raise their kids, I don't want mine over there.

There is actually a neighbor kid knocking on the door right now....I'm not answering.

So for all the millions (yeh right) of people that read this blog...what do you think?

I want to help and I want my home to be comfortable and for the boys to want to have their friends over but when is enough, enough?
