Hello blogging world...it's ME...just call me TIF...I'm a silly, serious, goofy, clumsy, anxious, worry wart, shop-o-holic, shoe addicted, HARD CORE bargain hunter, art loving, creative outlet in many forms, photo taking, Photoshop addicted, people pleasing, song writing, choir singing, people loving, fiercely faithful, curious, sheltie loving, honest, trustworthy, quirky, loud mouth , protective, passionate, finger snapping....lol..., deer hunting tomboy (who wears pink camo, and sometimes fancy house shoes to my stand), wife to my high school sweetheart, Mom to my amazing almost 24 year old son, finding it's time to get personal and get real...and a woman who is still searching for who she is! Whew...that's a mouth full and I've not even begun! I hope you will join me in my journey to find me...Here I am a "___-ty something" gal who had to grow up early and fast...now...I'm just trying to find out my own place in this life! The one thing I know for sure...I love my Lord and Savior and I strive each day to live a life that is pleasing to Him...sometimes I fall FLAT on my face...but there is always a hand to pull me up and show me that "YES" I am a sinner...but He loves me anyway!

Wow, you have a 23 year old son? You don't look old enough to have a 23 year old son! :) That's definitely a compliment. :)

THANK YOU! And...about the nomination...just consider it another verification that you ROCK! :o)
DeleteI have to second what Julie said. I thought, did she mean 23-month? Serious! lol
DeleteNope...almost 24 YEARS old...sigh...LOL!
Deleteokay, just to clarify this. you don't look like you have a 23 year old son. i'm at the same age as you son. and yes, that's a compliment
ReplyDeleteWhy thank you sweetie! All of his friends in HS used to think I was his sister! I'd get stopped by campus police asking for my school ID all the time! One day I was volunteering for an ROTC event...I was driving some of the boys...and I was on the phone away from the kids and this boy came up to my son and said, "DUDE...your sister is HOT"...my son said, "DUDE THAT IS MY MOM!" I nor the boy EVER LIVED THAT DOWN! Every time my son's Colonel would see me he'd tease me about it. I just hope I look 40 when I'm 60! LOL! XOXO
ReplyDeleteHi Tif, found you through the blog hop. I love meeting other bloggers of faith. I love the camper/retreat idea and I really hope you find one. I could use a retreat place like that. I live in a community of 350 people so quiet space is hard to find! It's nice to meet you and hope to read more from you! My name is Tammy and I blog at www.tammygrrrl.com.

I love your blog! I am your newest follower. I would have thought that you were about 25 years old, not old enough to have a 23 year old. I hope you check my blog out.
ReplyDeletewww.hollyenjoyinglife.blogspot.com
HA! Thanks Holly! And I will totally go check out your blog!
DeleteFor whatever reason, I was unable to comment on your most recent post. So, hi! I am so very glad that you stopped by my blog & commented, because I just adore your blog. I love how much you love the Lord, as well. I have never met a blogger that I felt so inspired by, in that area. So thank you. Your songs are beautiful, as are you.
