Just Breathe

Music moves me and this song really gets to me. Enjoy the lyrics and the music. I have loved Pearl Jam since they first started.

Just Breathe
by Pearl Jam

Yes I understand that every life must end, aw huh,..

As we sit alone, I know someday we must go, aw huh,..

I’m a lucky man to count on both hands

The ones I love,..



Some folks just have one,

Others they got none, aw huh,..



Stay with me,..

Let’s just breathe.



Practiced are my sins,

Never gonna let me win, aw huh,..

Under everything, just another human being, aw huh,..

Yeh, I don’t wanna hurt, there’s so much in this world

To make me bleed.



Stay with me,..

You’re all I see.



Did I say that I need you?

Did I say that I want you?

Oh, if I didn’t now I’m a fool you see,..

No one knows this more than me.

As I come clean.



I wonder everyday

as I look upon your face, aw huh,..

Everything you gave

And nothing you would take, aw huh,..

Nothing you would take,..

Everything you gave.



Did I say that I need you?

Oh, Did I say that I want you?

Oh, if I didn’t now I’m a fool you see,..

No one know this more than me.

As I come clean.



Nothing you would take,..

everything you gave.

Hold me till I die,..

Meet you on the other side.

Nothing Says I am Thinking of You More than...

Nothing says
"I am thinking of you" or
"I am happy you are here"
more than flowers and candles.

When I am going to have a guest or just because my family is coming home from a long hard day, I like to make them feel welcomed!

Making someone feel welcome in your home means you fix it up, squeeze some lemons into the sinks, bake some cookies or just light a candle!

I have gone a step further and decided to venture into growing my own flowers.  This saves money and makes my yard smell,
OH SO SWEET! 


These roses are starting to bloom on my back porch.

Here is one waiting for me to snatch her!

They are beautiful and smell like candy!

They are waiting for someone special coming tomorrow to eat some of my yummy...
My son even picked some for the special guest, but you will have to wait to see what all this about!  I sure hope the flowers can cover the fishy smell! 

This is Me, Then!

Jackson Family Easter 2010

This Easter we did something crazy!
We slept in, skipped, missed church, talked about Jesus and what he did for us, went to a movie, then to Whole Foods, then to Borders, then home to color eggs, cook dinner and watch another movie together.  We had a WONDERFUL non-stress day together!

Now, the day before, we had our annual egg hunt. That does stress me out, but its SO much fun! Take a peek and God Bless!
















This is Me, Easter!

Jesus is the Reason for the Season.

This is Me, Then.
