In honor of my single female comrades!!

This is a well-known song that my cousin Rachelle Bollmann decided to revise. Enjoy!

A Few Good Men

1:
What we single girls could use is a willing man of God
Who dares sometimes to use his brain and works without applause
A man who has a decent face and patience to endure
Whose love is tough and gentle a man who is secure

2:
We wouldn't mind an orator who knows just what to say
But then we want authority to reason him away
He really needs humility to guarantee we win
We just need a few good men

Chorus:
Men full of compassion who laugh and seldom cry
Men who have maturity and won't tell little lies
Men who don't like freedom and always say "Yes Ma'am"
We just need a few good men

3:
We don't want a derelict with many debts accrued
We want the ones who have some strength, reject all the uncouth
If these stringent lines you meet, we may want you as kin
We just need a few good men!!

I happen to remember hearing you and Jennifer and ???? I don't remember who else, singing this song. As a married woman I must say I can't relate but it did move me to tears when I heard you ladies sing it from the depths of your souls! I am praying for you to get that good man some day in the near future!

It was Felishia, Jaleah David (at the time now Chirby)Jennifer and myself. I happen to remember kneeling down to dramatically finish a verse and my grass skirt (we were fully dressed underneath) stayed under my shoes!!! I almost fell off the stage! I am praying the same prayer!!! Only God knows!!!

That happened to be the most hilarious moment I can ever remember. Here I am, playing at this Luau Choir Banquet, my daughter is singing a verse, and kneeling down with her hands clasped in prayer. The song was funny, however, I could not imagine why everyone was almost falling off their chairs laughing. I looked over at the girls quartet, and here is Erica, still singing, trying to rise and her grass skirt is not coming with her. Although she had another skirt on, it was so funny. With the microphone clasped in one hand, she gingerly grabbed her skirt, tucked it back at her waist and finished her verse. She kept her composure, singing with her eyes almost closed as she does that when she smiles real big. It really was a night to remember. My advice to all you single girls... and guys... DON'T GET IN A HURRY. God's timing and choice is perfect!

I don't want my daughter marrying some spineless jellyfish that "don't like freedom and always say "Yes Ma'am" ...be careful what you ask for....you might just get it, but rather remember this:

This is a man's world, this is a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl

You see, man made the cars to take us over the road
Man made the trains to carry heavy loads
Man made electric light to take us out of the dark
Man made the boat for the water, like Noah made the ark

This is a man's, a man's, a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl

Man thinks about little baby girls and baby boys
Man makes then happy 'cause man makes them toys
And after man has made everything, everything he can
You know that man makes money to buy from another man

This is a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl

just having fun with my 2 cents

WoW!! Ha Ha Ha! Oh how I wish I could have seen this of which you speak! Only you Erica, only you. I must say that I don't want a husband that will ALWAYS say "Yes Ma'am", BUT it would be nice if he did every once in awhile. I particularly like the line that says "A man who has a decent face." It cracks me up. Really. And this other song, ha ha,cracks me up too! Just remember the line "it wouldn't be nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl." Ha Ha!

What Day is it???

One of the reasons I HAD to write a new post was because if you would scroll down JUST a bit, there are 45+ comments on the last post!!! LOL so I figured why not write a new post and allow a more easily accessible comment view... Cuz you know my fingers were just getting so tired of scrolling all the way down to the bottom to see the newest comment! ridiculous!!! Anyway, have you ever woke up and wondered what am I doing up???? Who am I, where am I??? WHY??? Lol, well if you haven't one day you may. Today I woke up wondering why I couldn't see, and where I was and wanting to go back to bed. Lol "alas" (that was for Bekki) I found out the reason why. I had forgotten to take my contacts out last night (stupid right? But it does happen to the best of us) and they had decided during the night that they did NOT like my eyes. So I tried to rewet them and put them back into my eyes. But nooooo.... My right eye took it just fine, my left eye threw a fit. So here I was with a ...

Hallelujah From the Valley

A few months ago, a young lady from my school introduced the song below during chapel to the student body. If anyone has a right to sing these words, she does. As this young lady recently lost her mother in a long struggle with cancer. Loss is something none of us take well. No matter what it may be. Some losses seem small to others, but to the person who has lost, it is larger than life. Whether it be the loss of a parent, a sibling, any family member, a friend, a pet, a pastor, a job, a house the list goes on. We try to rationalize the situation... But, sadly, our finite minds cannot comprehend the reason the Lord decided to allow this pain into our lives. Many blame God for so many different reasons, but God knows how much you can bear, and how far He will allow. Job was tortured, torn, accused, cursed at, heartbroken, and yet he still uttered those words that we can't even begin to think in hard times "The Lord gave and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the ...

Yet ANOTHER Eventful Weekend

Ok, so Friday was not so eventful. Other than everyone in the house was up around eightish...ish...ish. Lol. And then started cleaning.... and cleaned.. and packed and cleaned and packed. That was pretty much all we did all the way up until 10 something that night! (well... with a few breaks here and there). Then Saturday, we got up to the smell of my mom cooking and baking. I told Nicole it smelled like Thanksgiving in my house! We ended up having some close family friends over, the Jones family, the Sablan family, the Davis family and the Lee Jr family (lol Tiffany Randy and babies). The food was wonderful and the fellowship marvelous! Lol when Tiff got there I stole her newest addition, Ryan, he is SUCH a doll! And then took Baby Randy for awhile. It was so funny watching him crawl all over the place, and then go up to the dogs and get scared and try to get away as fast as he could! It was fun! Well they were all gone by about 5:30, and Bekki had told me that we wanted to meet at...
