Rhonda's Ramblings

~Cast your burden upon the Lord, and He shall sustain you. He shall never permit the righteous to be moved. Psalm 55:22

~In times of trouble, remember that God is too kind to be cruel, too wise to make a mistake, and too deep to explain himself.

~Heart shattered lives ready for love don’t for a moment escape God’s notice. Psalm 51:17 (msg)

You saw my mistakes and watched my heart break
Heard when I swore I’d never love again
And when I was weak, unable to speak
Still I could call you by name
And I said, Heartache Healer, Secret Keeper,
Be my best friend
And You said, I Am.
-Nichole Nordeman–I Am

This weekend’s high: hanging out with Colleen and her kids at the Mandarin Festival. Even though Tayven was in a whiney mood. But I always love spending time with Colleen. And I bought 10 lbs of Mandarins. Any mandarin recipe ideas?

This weekend’s low: A really rude customer who totally yelled at me, even though she was the one who walked out the door without paying. Of course I followed her out the door to get her to pay. And she had the audacity to yell at me.

So, I watch Fear Factor entirely too often. It is on every night at 11:00 pm. So, I watch it when I get home from work. I don’t know why I enjoy watching people make idiots of themselves. Do some daredevil stunt where they are locked in a box in the water or consume pig rectum or live cockroaches or balance on some stucture that is hanging perilously in the air.. All while trash talking each other. For 50, 000 dollars. That’s not even that much money. I could barely put a down payment on a house with that much money. It’s definitely not worth almost killing myself over. But these people think that money is gonna change their life. One girl the other day wanted to win the money to go on a Spring Break trip. What kind of trip is she taking for $50,000? Definitely not a week at the beach. Not that I would turn down that much money.

I just don’t know why I am fascinated with the show. I do really like the host, though: Joe Rogan. He is a strange mix of encouraging yet mocking at the same time. Watch it sometime. It is strangely compelling.

So, what would you do for 50,000?

I know this is a boring post, but everything else I wanted to post was depressing me, and I don’t want that. Fear Factor…not so depressing. Just dumb.
