I DO!!! The Constance Sorrow would have angus beef, bacon, italian sausage, mushrooms, carmelized onions, bellpeppers, swiss cheese, and a secret sauce in between 1 inch thick buttered grilled italian garlic bread!!!

My Final Requests For When Laid To Rest:
My major concern, of course, is the well-being of my children. I want for them to be cared for with love, patience, kindness, and MOST importantly the love and knowledge of God and our Savior Jesus Christ. I DO NOT want them to be moved away from my family in Georgia (especially my mom, step-dad, sister.) I want them to have the influence of my family's good nature, spiritual heart, and unconditional love. I DO NOT want them to be moved out of state, especially Mississippi, where they would be under the influence of the controlling, manipulative, and conniving demeanors of their father's family. I want them to know me and I know that my family would keep my memory alive for them and continually express the depths of my love and adoration for them. I want them to be told often how much I love them, care for them, and how very proud I am of my children. They are my heart and soul and if I had nothing else in the world besides them I would be much more than content. I want them to be raised to know the difference between right and wrong and that actions have consequences, also that they control the direction of their lives with the choices they make. I know that here in Georgia they may not be raised with a fortune and every opportunity handed to them, but they will be humble and be appreciative of what they earn for themselves and they will understand that happiness, love, and success is not bought with money but that it is obtained with hard work, sacrifice, and the willingness to pursue their dreams and goals.
As for my worldly possessions, material objects, etc.: they are just things and mean nothing to me. I don't really care who gets what. I DO request that people do not fight or argue over things that may belong to me. I would like for Courtney to inherit my engagement ring when she turns 16 years old or maybe even sooner if she proves herself mature enough to take care of it and appreciate it. My makeup and things that I have acquired from my employment at Sephora can go to my mother and be divided amongst her and my sister Rebecca. I would like for them to go through the items together and agree on who gets what. There is plenty there to go around. Anything else that isn't of any importance (i.e. clothing, shoes, accessories) may be given to Goodwill or the church or whoever wants them. If for some reason someone in my family wants a particular item, just give it to them.
I really can't think of anything else that may be of importance to me.
Like I said, my main concern is my children. All other things are meaningless, as life can be lived without them.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I want for everyone to know that I will be in that "better place" praising God for eternity and in such a state of complete happiness that there will have to be a new word invented to describe it. I pray that one day I will see my family there, worshiping beside me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Soon I will write letters to the people who mean the most to me, so that they will know how much they mean to me and they can always remind themselves of how much I love them.

Oh No, Not Again!
Well, while getting ready to go to Kroger this morning it happened again... My heart was racing for about 10 seconds and I felt like I could barely breathe. Now, I'm really getting concerned. I don't have insurance, so I can't see a doctor, unless of course I go to the E.R., and I really don't want to do that unless it is an actual emergency. I feel fine now. I felt fine as soon as it was over. Thank God Aaron was here, though. He comforted me and hugged me until I felt better. I think he really helped me not have a panic attack. When it happened I was in the bathroom singing and I reached to hit a really low note and ran out of breath, then I felt my heart start racing. Maybe lack of oxygen? I don't know. But two days ago I walked to the front office and back and up that steep hill and I was fine. It doesn't seem to happen when I am exercising or doing anything strenuous... I don't get it. But I have decided that if I want to be around to care for my children that I need to make some drastic changes in my lifestyle. I am quitting smoking and I am eating healthier. I am no longer drinking sodas or sweet tea, just water and juice. For dinner tonight I am going to eat (as much as it pains me to say) fish and veggies and salad. I am going to do as much as I can in my power to change my habits and be healthier. My next blog will probably be my wishes if anything does happen to me. I've been thinking about it for a while now, and while I know that it isn't anything that will hold up in court, I also know that my family respects me enough to carry out my requests if something were to happen to me. I wrote a "Last Will and Testament" about 5 years ago, I may even still have it sealed in an envelope somewhere, but I need to update it anyway, so what better way that on the internet? HAHA!

Take A Hike
I just got back from walking to the front office to pay rent. It's not that bad of a walk, really. It's about a mile total, but there's this steep hill that had my legs burning and my heart pumping and my lungs reaching for oxygen. Even the hill wouldn't have been so bad if it weren't for the fact that I was pushing the stroller with the car seat and the baby in it... But either way, I made it there and back and rent was paid on time. Now I'm sweaty.
Aaron may be going to New York for a week for his job. I don't mind so much that he goes, although being alone with two small children for 7 days will be hell for me, but I don't see how it's worth the money. He'll only make about $180 more that he would here in Georgia working 7 days... It doesn't make sense to me. I'll definitely want to keep myself busy, though, if he does go. At first I was thinking "Maybe I can spend the week with mom!" but then I remembered "Courtney has school." Oh well, I'll think of something, I guess.
Right now the baby is asleep and I am going to put off cleaning the house and watch a movie, because I want to.
