So, my mom was reading my post about the "To Write Love On Her Arms" cause and pointed out to me that the paragraph ,that I pasted from the site, said "being someone that has struggled with depression and suicidal thoughts...."
HAHA! I didn't mean to copy that part of the paragraph and put it on here, I only meant to copy the support paragraphs.
So, if you were puzzled by that, you now have an explanation.
And, no, I do not struggle with depression or suicidal thoughts.
Blond moments are what make life fun and not so serisou! I once laughed at fellow coworker (who was blond) because she didn't know where Nicaragua was. She challenged me, "So where is it?" I laughed, "In Africa, of course." That's when a fellow non-blond coworker stepped in with the globe and said actually its in Central America. I'm so stubborn and bound to have the rigt answer all the time that I wouldn't believe until I saw the globe. I felt really sheepish after that worked really hard to sound extra intelligent at work, LOL
"On November 13 write LOVE on your arm in big letters. Be creative spread the word. This is for all the survivors and all the innocent. All of the people who are hurting and who think that suicide is the only way they can turn.
Also, don't forget to donate so all of the kids in need can get the help that they deserve.
It's such a simple thing to do. If you can dress up for spirit week at your school, i think you can take the time to write LOVE on your arm. Its time to stand up and get the word out. Maybe someday there will be a cure for this, instead of just a treatment that could potentially make it worse. It takes just thirty seconds to write four letters. I challenge you to stand up and speak out!I think some people are confused about what this is. All you have to do is literally write LOVE on your arm to show support. Maybe even donate money or time at your local suicide hotline. When someone asks... 'Why is that on your arm?' You can spread the word about depression and suicide. For some reason in our society, depression and suicide are still taboo topics that a lot of people want to keep quiet. But i think that everyone needs to start talking about it. Help is out there, and by keeping quiet we're only hurting the people who need the help.
So speak up, and speak out

Thanks for all the comments on my senior pictures, the fiddle picture was definitely a favorite.
Hey Abbey I forgot to send your mom the chocolate gravy recipe until I made some this morning and thought about it. 1 cup of sugar, 3 TBS flour, 3 TBS COCO, 1 cup of water, 1 TBS vanilla Mix dry ingredients. Stir in water and vanilla. Micro 30 sec. to 1 minute intervals at a time stirring as you go. Probably won't take but a few minutes. Watch it or you'll have pudding. :) Enjoy.
Just a few of my favorites of the outdoor shoot. And, I'm serious, these are just a few...He took over one thousand pictures that day. you're probably wondering how we got a Senior package with 1000 pictures, right? Well, he's a friend of ours, so he's just shooting all kinds of photos for us. :)
We're doing studio shoots in a couple weeks!
(these are unedited...the photographers just sent me the prints so I could choose which ones I like)
Oh Abbey! They are beautiful! I love the one with your fiddle, but the two of you together is awesome! And I love the one you put up top of your pleo! And sure thing, if you wanna play with my pics! ;) Do you want me to email them or can you get them from pleo? (They are small on pleo...)
I think the fiddler one is the most appropriate for a senior picture but my favorite is with the horse of course (the 1st one) and WoW I love how you two look in the last together... I haven't seen him in years. What a sweet guy! =)
THANKS for calling me a guy!!! ;D Just kidding!!!! :D I do look like I have been in a fight, I had to go to 4-H like that and that is what people kept asking me, "Have you been in a fight???" and btw, I love them all!!!! The first or third is the best though.....
Those are sooo cute!! i like the one w/ the fiddle the best, but they are all really cute! Im glad you are in my speech class, because today was pretty crazy. on torrys paper where it said "were you persuaded?" i wrote NO THATS SICK. What goes through these peoples minds??? and what up w/ the girl talking like that about homeschool? idk interesting stuff! lol
The pictures are all so beautiful.I think the last one is extremely cute, though! ;) How things going? I haven't talked to you in a while. Take care! :)
Awesome pic!! So is that a quote from a song? And are the Yeaters sick or something?? I gues the Cochrans are bringing Kela still. I will call and ask them for sure.
