You really should...

 Watch "472. "You really should..."" on YouTube 

Over the past 2 years of making youtube vids...I've recieved many inboxes and comments. During the past month, I've recieved the dozen or so... I'm gonna list here.

"You really should...

- get a better camera.

- get a better microphone.

- edit your vids.

- make sure theres no phone ringing....tv playing, etc.

- add music.

- make sure there no fan blowing.

- make videos outside in natural light.

- review more products.

- not name products.

- practice what you're going to say before filming.

- stick to one subject.

- stop being random.

-  make a theme for your channel and only make vids related to the theme.

- be more professional.

- wear more makeup.

- make OFTD vids.

- work from a studio."

Etc. I could go on, but I'm already tired of typing. There are, like, a billion vids on youtube, a billion free vids, there for you to watch and I'm not a puppet. If you dont like my vids...watch someone elses. If you get ticked that i dont let you pull the strings and call the shots....oh well. If you send more "suggestions" via inbox or the comment box...don't get offended that your suggestion will be ignored from now on. I'm the only one that decides what goes on my vids, my channel, my blog, my facebook, my page, etc. Notice the word "my" is in the mix. If you don't agree then feel free to put what you want on your vids, your channel, your blog,  your facebook, your page, etc. You can only control you. I can only control me. That is all I have to say about that.

Who is peepla7 on youtube

 Watch "422. "Rep Yourself" response to whoissugar" on YouTube Whoissugar sent a challenge: rep yourself, who are you on youtube? This is my response, unedited and uncut. As always....my random gene took over. Haha

Gifts from route 643 and 169.

These are gifts from the children ...and the parents on my bus. Some are very thoughtful, some are from the heart, some...the thought is what counts. All are appreciated.

One child surprised me by asking to take my pic...this child acted like he hated me for the whole year for making him obey the safty rules. I hope he doesnt morph my pic into a monster. Hahaha nahhh...hes a good kid...just a little too much sugar in his diet.

Thank you for the gifts Andrew, Leah, Emma, Edward, Benjamin, Tamyra, Devon, Jacob M., Toni, Fatumata, Mikiahya, Chyna, Mrs. Klus, Mrs. Schmidt, Kaitlyn and Jeremy! Thank you passengers of routes 169 and 643 for making this a fun year.

Have a wonderful summer and hopefully I'll be your driver next year as well.

Say "Sorry" when you're wrong

This is what the mug is supposed to look like...only i had the 20 oz mug....this picture is on of a 12 oz mug.

Be a grown up....not a child. When you're wrong....admit it, appologize for it. To make excuses is just plain childish.

Brother broke my handblown coffee mug....stuck it in with the clean dishes....with pieces of glass falling out of it.  Then gonna tell me (when. I told him specifically-- don't wash my stuff...I'll do it.) "It was cracked when I washed it." Well now my NEW mug is broken. He owes me 20.00. If it was cracked...pisspoor excuse...not to mention an outright lie....then why would you touch it and even risk breaking it? Duh.

Accidents happen....if he had said "sorry, it was an accident" I wouldnt have been angry. And bottom line....he could have said sorry. No...he wants to make excuses. He needs to man up and get out. It wasnt even the broken mug that angered me....it was the attitude attached to it. No appology and then an excuse. C'mon ...how old are you? Mentally, I'd say around 9 or 10 years old, despite the actual years on the planet. Children make excuses. Grown ups do not.

Happy Days

 Watch "339. Happy day updates" on YouTube because of God's grace, my good days far outweigh my bad days. Then there are days like this day.  I woke up...pain free, the kids on the bus were mostly behaved, and....good hair day, I came home to a gift from my daughter, coffee from mom, went back to work...had a good run. Came home...dropped off stuff, headed to prayer meeting...more good news.

I even slept well. If all of my days were like this day...my face would hurt from smiling all the time.

A hat for a bag

Remember this hat? The wandering path....started as a scarf...turns out the recipient didnt like green...so I turned it into a hat. Hat was too big. This was a test knit...then fine tuned into a more fitting pattern.

Problem...i dont like green either. So I didnt wear it... I wore it to take this picture, and all the other pictures of its creation. I wore it today...and one of my coworkers was lugging around power paks left on hhis bus. Traded hat for this bag of goodies. Not bad for a hat I wore once. The guy that got the hat...fits him perfectly.

Making myself another one.....only took 2 days last time...I'll be wearing it by Monday.

Happy Remission Day to me!

February 8, once again....and now im 12 years cancer free. Mom gave me this beautiful necklace...a purple butterfly. The symbol for thyrroid cancer survival and one of my fave things. I've always liked purple butterflies...and then it took on more meaning.


Tthis time next year...it will be Happy Remission day to me...and my sister. She had surgery today...they got all of it. Im so happy....THAT is the best gift.

A final gift from dad!

The nursing home released all of Dad's things. A. Gifted bear is now in moms room. We put the rappin reindeer next to the hip hop santa....thats gonna be funny together. Then mom goes, "this...is for you." Its perfect. Look at the title of my blog...i love purple butterfies, its got one on it. My fave flowers are tulips, sunflowers and gerba daisies. I perfer silver to gold. I like longevity and unique. Simple over complicated. Its almost like he picked it out just for me. It reminds me of him with every glance. Its my final gift from Daddy!

This has to go

And there are those who would say this isnt fat....however my waist now measures what my hips used to measure and my hips are 10 inches wider. I went from 215 down to 164, up to 175....held at 175 for a year. Over the holidays....went to 179. Now im at 177....and im gonna keep going till my stomach is flat again.

My knees are already starting to hurt from the extra weight...its time to go.

Disposables

 Watch "200. Disposables" on YouTube lets not keep up the disposable lifestyle, let 2012 mark the begining of wiser choices. Reuse, reduce, recycle....the right way. A lot of the disposables are affecting us in more ways than we know.

Mom issued warning....

And folks should have heeded the warning: get your stuff out of the living room. Well...times up. Here you see the before....and after.

Never been the type to sort thru a bunch of stuff...thats why you get a warning to get your stuff....then whatever is left....gone, out, zapp!

Vote!

Its what you should do. If you have the right to vote...then get to it...today is the day. Its free, its simple, they have free parking at most places. If that don't get you going...you get a free sticker to sooth your inner child!

Headboard Library almost fell on my head!

The one sound I can't sleep thru is a lawn mower. Ted was outside mowing the lawn...got under my window...I woke up thinking "what is that?" No sooner than I get up...one of the boxes of my headboard library fell where my head was. God ALWAYS sends me an angel! I can't make this stuff up...not that imaginative. Ironic that it was the box of knitting books. So I went outside and gave a very confused Ted a hug and said "Thanks for saving my life." To which he repled "ok...woke you up for work huh?" Haha so I explained it.

If you have a headboard with a built in book case....and you actually use it for books...be advised this could happen to you too. I'm clearing all the books off of mine. From now on they going in a standard bookcase.
