Loser Like Me!!!

Stay Tuned till the end of the blog for lots of pics!  Well, I found my notebook of notes this weekend, and now I can't seem to find it again. (It's not lost, I'm just not in the mood to look for it.) So, we will have to wait again for "Lessons from the earthquake/tsunami.  Instead, I want to share the words of a song.  It's called "Loser Like Me" and it's one of the top five downloaded songs on ITunes.




The words and the song struck a chord with me because one of the lies that Satan wants us to believe is that we are losers.  If we are losers, we are hopeless and many people use that as an excuse to not even try.  Well, of course we are good enough.  We were good enough that "while were sinners God sent his son to die for us."  Romans 5:8  Also, we know that Satan is a big, fat liar!!!!






 John 8:44

You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desire. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.



Here's the song lyrics:

Yeah, you may think that I’m a zero
But, hey, everyone you wanna be
Probably started off like me
You may say that I’m a freakshow (I don’t care)
But, hey, give me just a little time
I bet you’re gonna change your mind
All of the dirt you’ve been throwin’ my way
It ain’t so hard to take, that’s right
‘Cause I know one day you’ll be screamin’ my name
And I’ll just look away, that’s right
Just go ahead and hate on me and run your mouth
So everyone can hear
Hit me with the words you got and knock me down
Baby, I don’t care
Keep it up, I’m tunin’ up to fade you out
You wanna be
You wanna be
A loser like me
A loser like me
(Cory Monteith/Finn)
Push me up against the locker
And hey, all I do is shake it off
I’ll get you back when I’m your boss
I’m not thinkin’ ’bout you haters
‘Cause hey, I could be a superstar
I’ll see you when you wash my car
All of the dirt you’ve been throwin’ my way
It ain’t so hard to take, that’s right
‘Cause I know one day you’ll be screamin’ my name
And I’ll just look away, that’s right
Just go ahead and hate on me and run your mouth
So everyone can hear
Hit me with the words you got and knock me down
Baby, I don’t care
Keep it up, I’m tunin’ up to fade you out
You wanna be
You wanna be
A loser like me
A loser like me
A loser like me
Hey, you, over there
Keep the L up-up in the air
Hey, you, over there
Keep the L up, ’cause I don’t care

You can throw your sticks, and you can throw your stones
Like a rocket, just watch me go
Yeah, l-o-s-e-r
I can only be who I are
Just go ahead and hate on me and run your mouth
So everyone can hear
Hit me with the words you got and knock me down
Baby, I don’t care
Keep it up, I’m tunin’ up to fade you out
You wanna be
You wanna be
A loser like me
A loser like me
Just go ahead and hate on me and run your mouth
So everyone can hear
Hit me with the words you got and knock me down
Baby, I don’t care
Keep it up, I’m tunin’ up to fade you out
You wanna be
You wanna be
A loser like me (A loser like me)
A loser like me (A loser like me)
A loser like me

So, which is it??? Are you a winner or a loser???











Sunday, March 27:  After Zumba, I headed to Murray.  I had an appointment to get my teeth cleaned, so I took Monday off and decided to spend the night with my mom in her new house. 




Going across the lake


Almost to Murray


MSU basketball arena (I don't know the official name.)





Monday, March 28:  I got my teeth cleaned without any problems.  My mom and I had lunch and I took somemore things to the Peddlers' Mall.  If you are in Murray, check out my stuff in Booth #88.  Check out Renee's stuff too.  She is so generous to let me put my things there, no charge.  It's her kind way to help the cause!!








I am almost to my mom's new house.  It was a beautiful Spring day.







There is her house.








View from her backyard








I made a few pieces of jewelry.









My mom's kitchen









The front door





Here we go again, I can't take off one of the pictures, if I remove one they all come off.
My mom's front door




Here's a few things that I put in the Peddlers' Mall.


























I headed home after I got my teeth cleaned.  It was a beautiful day for a drive.  I decided to drive through Cadiz instead of the by-pass.  I took some pictures of a few of the old homes in town.  I also stopped for a delicious lime Diet Coke.  It was happy hour!!




I love these old homes!!





















Tuesday, March 29:  When you are a teacher, taking off a day is a lot of work.  There is tons of prep to get ready for a substitute, and then there is usually a lot of catch up when you get back.  Well, things ran very smoothly today.



Please ignore the clutter!! 




I put this pic in for my hubby.  He hates the awkward poise.








I came across this funny picture on Stumble Upon.  If you aren't familiar with Stumble Upon, do a Google search.  It's pretty cool.  Let's see who can come up with a funny caption for this picture!!!

Weekend Fun

Saturday, March 26, 7:30 am: I am off to WW.  Good news:  I didn't gain any weight.  Bad news:  I didn't lose any weight.  I am following this diet and exercising 4-5 days a week.  I'm getting slightly frustrated, but I will not give up!!!


Update on Buffalo Wild Wings (This is close to WW.)


If you follow me on FB, you know I made some purchases earlier in the week at one of my favorite stores......Target.  I went in for a magazine for my son and a pair of socks.  I ended up spending $63.  Well, I had found a cute blouse that must have been "junior" sized.  I needed to go to Target and return it.  Going to Target can be dangerous!!!  :0)


Dogs in Clarksville are smart!!!







Target!!


The jeans seemed too good of a deal to pass up.  It's a good thing I tried them on because they didn't work.  That saved me a trip.  I don't usually like to try things on.









Zumba was great as always!


I allow myself a venti Caramel Frappuccino on Saturdays.  This was a pretty tree in the parking lot.  Red bud? I don't know.




The hubby and I had a PF Chang gift card left over from Christmas and we decided that we could go there for our late lunch/early supper.



We also had a coupon for an appetizer.  This is it: Dynamite Shrimp!  Awesome!
















I had my coffee for the day, but the hubby hadn't,
so we went next door to Starbucks there in West End




The day had been rainy and cold, but we decided to check and see if there was any geocaches nearby.  There was!











The clue mentioned "pi" and there was a pizza place nearby.  According to the GPS on my phone, we were right there.  It was pouring down raining, and the hubby wouldn't get out of the car to help me find the cache, so it was a fail this time.  You can see the pizza place below:




After that, we went and looked around at a neat shopping area no too far away.  It's called Nashville West.



It has some of the usual stores:  Old Navy, Target, Marshalls, Ross, DSW, and some other places.  We decided to go and look around at the World Market.  It's kind of like a Pier One on steroids!


















































We got home and decided to take the dog for a short ride and run an errand.







The road to our neighborhood is actually declared a "Tennessee Scenic Highway".  Here is one of the really pretty areas.

Maybe this is why I'm not losing any weight.









Sunday, March 27


Heading to church


















Going to Zumba and playing with my new phone.






After Zumba, I headed to Murray to see my mom.  I have taken Monday off because I have a dental appointment.





Sorry about having this picture up twice, but for some reason when I try to delete it, it takes all of the blog off.  I fixed that by clicking the undo button.





























Heading into my mom's new neighborhood.









The sun has finally come out.  My mom and I are enjoying this Sunday afternoon.  UK is on the TV, it's been a close game!!!
