Ever Had Enough?
When was the last time you had one of those days? Not counting today. It seems that everyone
around needs either high blood pressure meds or the proverbial chill pill.Between people being so
outragously rude, inconsiderate, and just short of stupidity,
it makes one not want to leave home every morning. It is only made worse by the "Christmas Spirit".
A cashier that asks for your I.D. in order to insure your safety and I truely appreciate yet is greeted
by a rude individual that is ticked by the "inconvience". That same person would raise 9
kinds of hell if some one had stolen their card and used it.
I was in Hobby Lobby one day and wanted a pre made small wreath in order to use on my table for
an Advent center piece. There was a woman standing there staring at the wall of wreaths. I saw one
that would work well and so I picked it up. The woman, still standing and staring looked at me
and with a huff said "that is the last one". Not knowing what to say I just walked away. After thinking
about it I should have replied "then you should have picked it up, right!"
While walking through the store I noticed two women shopping and having an enjoyable time. They
turned and were looking at something else when I saw another woman looking in their buggy
then picked up a bunch of flowers and put it in her buggy and walked away. I
didn't know what to say. Shoud I tell the ladies or stop the woman? I just stood there
speachless.It seems that it has been forgotten that this is supposed to be the "Joy Of Christmas". The
season to care, love, help, and have compassion for others. Especially since it is not
done the rest of the year.

Our Economy?
Why do we blame government for the state of "Our Economy"? From the local mayor to the
president, we are the ones that put them in office. It is our fault that the country we live in
is in such a mess.
Why do we believe any thing any of them say? You know the minute they are elected they are
going to sit back and have the biggest laugh of their life on us. The term necessary evil comes
to mind.
I mean who remembers "No new taxes" or the solution "Don't ask, don't tell"? I mean how can
they mess things up anymore than the one before the one before the one before. Oh, I am sorry
because that was "Daddy Bush" right? Well you get the point. And let's not forget the latest
one "bring our troops home".
Our govornment is kicking the C E O's of companys out for taking 350,000.00 dollar bonuses
and I have yet to hear the first elected official offer to give theirs back or take a cut in pay. These
buisnesses may be why people are out of work but I don't see the difference between what they have
done and our govornment. Has the Senator,Congressman,or even Govenor that you voted
for given up their vaction in Europe on our money?
Leave the "illegal aliens" alone.
If it weren't for the people coming across the border from Mexico, we would have all starved to death
by now. They are doing jobs for less than any "American" would do even at minimum wage.
It isn't that they are not wanted here and taking from our social aid programs. It is because
if they become legal then who wil we get to do our dirty work for so cheap.
We have people, born and bread Americans, that are already sucking the system dry. You have seen
them and and thought "I wish I could sit on my behind and stick it to Uncle Sam". The ones driving
Linclons, wearing their rings, and using their food card to buy groceries.
There is a 33 year old lady, well person that has 5 kids. She recieves 650.00 a month for housing,
800.00 for food, help with all living expences and has no intention of working or looking for a job.
Why should she.
You see as long as she has a child under the age of 4 years then the money will keep rolling in. She
has a man in her life with a menial job and as long as they don't get married, they have it made. She
sells some of what is on her food card for drugs.
Reporting things such as this doesn't do any good because there are so many taking advantage
of the system there is no time to investigate the "accusations".
How about we trade our dead beats for those that want to come here and do the right thing.
Stupid Cell Phone PEOPLE
Yes, I said it! I am talking about those people that are so busy talking on their cell phones while
driving that they forget that there are other people in the world.
The one that cuts you off in traffic, runs a light or weaves in and out of their lane on the
highway. A friend of mine lost her daughter to one of those people. He was so busy talking
to his friend about their weekend adventures that he didn't notice the STOP sign and ran through it.
Think about that the next time you say "not me". If you are on the phone then yes it could
be you.
I have had a cell phone for quite some time and when ever I was driving I would not answer it. When
I stopped I would return the call. There are to many people that don't seem to know how to drive as
it is and I did not need any distractions.
They make these great little devices now called BlueTooth. There is the jawbone that makes
it look like you are talking to yourself. Headphones that are very descret and work very well. Then,
like my car, there are cars now with a thing called SYNC. When I am in my car and recieve a call
it is answered through the speakers.With more people working from the road these days it
seems it would be a good investment. It has been banned in school zones so it seems that should tell
you something.
scrappin
I am still creating scrap stuff but since people can be so inconsiderate they are only offered to those that e mail me.
I know that to leave a comment on 4 shared, it requires membership but there was a comment section under
each freebie that I posted.
People can take time to click on the mouse to grab but don't have time to type 6 little letters. T H A N K S I am not the
only one that feels this way. There are a lot of designers that are going to stop offering freebies. We take the time
to make something and even though it is usually something for our own pages, we take the time to share it. I do this
because I love to create but some do it for profit and by offering freebies they hope it will encourage
people to join their sites.
The piracy issue is bad enough but a little appreciation would be nice. I recieve e mails directing me to other sites
that are sharing my things. It seems no one even takes the time to read or so many would have been able to find
the password to my downloads. It was in big type in the Terms Of Use.
There are also tutorials added to Mommas Scraps but those are only accessable to members.
