Hello. My name is….

Hey ya'll! My name is Jinger Francis Stacy. I'm 29 years old and have lived in Trumann all of my life. I have TWO wonderful men in my life, Shawn, my best friend and true love, and my son, my baby boy, Talon Kade. Talon is two years old and he is my whole world! Gosh, it's amazing how different your outlook on life becomes after having a child. It's no longer about you: it's all about them, and if it's not that way, well, you need to check your priorities.

I guess I'm getting old. The other day someone asked me, "What are you doing Saturday night?" When I look back on my reply I think gosh, I sounded like a dork! I told them I would probably sit in the recliner and read Good Housekeeping or Woman's Day, while Shawn watched football and Talon watched Cars for the ten millionth time. But you know what, (yes I started a sentence with a conjunction), I wouldn't have it any other way.

Next on the agenda is Christmas. So do you all feel the same way I do? With the way the economy is right now, I'm buying for the little ones in my family and that's it. Isn't Christmas supposed to be about spending time with your family, eating (my favorite part), and most importantly, Jesus' birthday??!! It just seems like people, including myself, get so wrapped up in what to buy for this person and worrying if they will like it, that we tend to forget the true meaning of this holiday. Let's not stress about it this year folks. I know, easier said than done. I can honestly say that last year I spent less money on buying gifts than ever before and it was the best Christmas yet!

Well, I guess I'm finished gushing about how I'm such a "thrill seeker". If you didn't get anything out of this blog, please, at least remember this: The happiest people don't have it all. They just make the best with what they've got!

Until next time my friends, don't forget to spay and neuter your pets! :)
