Good morning, Tink! I'm glad to see you're settling into your new place well!!!



Tinkerbell_ -> RE: Don't even TINK about it! aka...Welcome to Andalasia! (4/12/2008 11:27:39 AM)

I really am! I just need to get some pics hanging on my walls and I'll be good to go. *beams*

Good to hear. [:)]



humbleinspirit -> RE: Don't even TINK about it! aka...Welcome to Andalasia! (4/12/2008 1:05:15 PM)

Hope that you are having a good day Tink!



AngelInWaiting1983 -> RE: Don't even TINK about it! aka...Welcome to Andalasia! (4/12/2008 2:55:20 PM)

Hi Tink! Nice place. I promise I won't decorate it! (Well, only if you want me to. I have a wonderful crew!)



Tinkerbell_ -> RE: Don't even TINK about it! aka...Welcome to Andalasia! (4/12/2008 4:40:19 PM)

LOL! Thanks everyone! Please...make yourselves comfortable. I'll tell you a little bit about myself and if you like what you hear you can stick around even more. *grin*

I'm a single mum of two rodents boys; Thing 1 is 11 and Thing 2 is 8. I've been divorced for just over 4 years and while I went through and extremely difficult time with it, God got me through it beautifully and I am in a much better point of my life.

We just got our first house together (yea!) and are having a blast getting all settled in and decorating.

I don't do a whole lot outside of work and the boys and my church but that's good enough for me.

Although my best friend, (whom I call Kyoudai) and I run a small Bible study together and it's turned into an amazing life changing event. We minister to my boys and two girls, one 14 and one 19. They came from...less than stellar homes and while the 14 year old's parents are involved in church the way they raise their girls is "If they aren't hurting anyone it's okay". Flea (the 14 year old) seems to be seeking...something and Kyoudai and I are trying to help her find it. The 19 year old (Llama) acts like a typical 13 year old and is struggling to find her place in this world. In the short amount of time we've been working with them, Llama has been making huge efforts to mature and grow and I'm extremely proud of the steps she's made.

As soon as I'm able to afford it, I've decided to "hire" the girls to help me out around the house a little bit, and stuff like that. Help them earn some money, help me out around the house, and also help them with responsibility. Kyoudai and I take them many places and we always pay so he figured this would be a good way to help them help us help them. Did that make sense?

Also...something huge to tell you (although it's only huge to me. *giggle*). Kyoudai is probably the closest thing to a 'partner' that I have ever met. HOWEVER God spoke very clearly to the two of us that we are not meant to be together so that made life just a bit easier and we are able to work together with no pressure.

Oookay...I've babbled enough. On to decorating!!! *dances away*

Tink, that's awesome that you're in those girls' lives (and your boys', too [8D]). I'm sure you're making a huge difference.



Tinkerbell_ -> RE: Don't even TINK about it! aka...Welcome to Andalasia! (4/12/2008 6:40:33 PM)

Oh thanks Shema! It's been awesome for Kyoudai and I as well. We are learning scripture from different levels and learning how to interact as adults...LOL

Our favourite thing to say is, "We're in this together even if we're not married!" [8D][8D][8D]



Tinkerbell_ -> RE: Don't even TINK about it! aka...Welcome to Andalasia! (4/12/2008 11:42:45 PM)

Thing 2 was extremely cute tonight. Apparently helping with the girls wore him out because both boys put themselves to bed fairly early.

We were in his room, I had kissed his babies good night, and we were praying...in the middle of his prayer he starts snoring! How adorable is that????

*sigh*

I have such amazing boys.



sunshine4God -> RE: Don't even TINK about it! aka...Welcome to Andalasia! (4/12/2008 11:51:11 PM)

Hello Tink,Cool place you got here! God bless you and have a good night!



FunBetty -> RE: Don't even TINK about it! aka...Welcome to Andalasia! (4/13/2008 12:52:22 AM)

Heya Tink,

Just popping in to say hello. No cookies tonight...spent too many calories sampling the dessert I made for the auction tomorrow. What?! It was chocolate QUALITY CONTROL!!!



Tinkerbell_ -> RE: Don't even TINK about it! aka...Welcome to Andalasia! (4/13/2008 5:12:21 PM)

Ahhhh...I love beautiful Sunday afternoons. Throw the French doors open, welcome the breeze, feed a squirrel or two...*sigh* This is the life. *beams*

My dad even raked my back yard a bit when he came to visit. *grin* Apparently I'm still his helpless little baby girl. *giggle*

G'day!



AngelInWaiting1983 -> RE: Don't even TINK about it! aka...Welcome to Andalasia! (4/13/2008 8:52:29 PM)

Hello Cammo! How are things down under?



Tinkerbell_ -> RE: Don't even TINK about it! aka...Welcome to Andalasia! (4/13/2008 8:57:28 PM)

Greetings Cammo and Terri! Glad you stopped by! *grin*

I just got home from church and feel an early night tonight. I do hope everyone had a restful day and I'm going to try to have more to discuss tomorrow!

[:D]



cammo2006 -> RE: Don't even TINK about it! aka...Welcome to Andalasia! (4/13/2008 8:59:57 PM)

Quite well. We had quite a storm here last night, though it was just thunder/lightning (though impressive sounding thundercracks!) and (alot of) rain. Barely any wind, which was strange.

I'm actually amazed it didn't hail. I was completely expecting it to.

Sleep well Tink! [:)]



AngelInWaiting1983 -> RE: Don't even TINK about it! aka...Welcome to Andalasia! (4/13/2008 9:01:55 PM)

The clouds rolled in really heavy tonight here and got really cold all of a sudden. I'm hoping its not too bad.



Tinkerbell_ -> RE: Don't even TINK about it! aka...Welcome to Andalasia! (4/13/2008 9:03:19 PM)

Thanks, Cammo! I have a bit of a headache and feel that a good night's sleep is just what I need. Plus my contacts were bothering me and since I hate wearing my glasses I figure I better not torture myself with them for too long! *grin*



Grace-N-Mercy -> RE: Don't even TINK about it! aka...Welcome to Andalasia! (4/13/2008 9:08:40 PM)

Hey, girlie!! I just found your new space and HAD to break my no-PFY rule and post in here. [:D]

Sorry you have a headache! Just curl up into your down-filled bed and dream of princes!

(BTW, I had a down-filled bed night before last and it was dreeeeaaaaammmmyyy!! [:D]
