WELCOME
You have arrived in Lev's Notes. Hi, I'm Levonne, or Lev, as most call me online. I've tried to make this blog a mixture of things I can share, anything and everything that has to do with me. Whether it be expressed thoughts on something that is a part of me, or something that I love very deeply. You will see a variety here. Levonne:More About Me, is exactly what it say. Here you can read about my childhood, my faith, things that make up who I am, and where I came from. Bits and Pieces: Are special pages that are close to my heart. Things that mean alot to me, and are a very important part of my life. I live in the United States, in the midwestern state, Missouri. I have shared some wonderful links with you and tried to show you all that is a part of the beautiful "Show Me" state, that I live in. You will have access to my home pages, links to wonderful sites, from health, Christianity, to travel. I also share the links to web pages that I have designed, and also to the many wonderful groups of which I'm owner. Educational links to higher education here in Columbia, MO, where I live, and lastly, links to several ribbon campaigns that are close to my heart. I do hope that you enjoy the time you spend here, and I encourage you to return often, and visit those sites and links that you've not yet had a chance to. I trust that I have included wonderful links, beautiful music, stunning photos, and much more, that I know you will enjoy. And don't forget...my daily ramblings...all that is going on in my life from day to day. Hope that all this makes you know a little more about what makes Lev tick. Have a GREAT day! God Bless. Lev

A Beautful Saturday

A big "HI", to everybody, on this beeeeeeeeeutiful Saturday afternoon! I hope you are all doing fabulous!

Well, I've just come to enjoy this blog thing, entirely toooooo much. Now I am in 3....my first and original, Lev's Notes, @ blogspot.... then came the Yahoo 360, and naturally, I jumped right into that. lol Then a friend introduced me to Frappr....and I jumped head first into that too! I'll have to say I'm pretty much a yahoo fan...yahoo mail, yahoo messenger, geocities for my websites, but I'll have to admit that I enjoy my blogspot, and frappr moreso than I do my 360...but I've been trying to do things in there and make it more interesting over the past couple of weeks. So...now that I don't ONLY have 3 blogs to post to...plus friends, and groups, I'm gonna have to get lazy, and will probably be posting the same message to them all. I SURE hope this doesn't detour you from stopping in, because my blog/post entry is the same in all. There are lots of other things on my blogs that you can hopefully spend time enjoying. For instance, you can now enjoy music on mt blogspot page, as well as Frappr. I have also created a new map on Frappr..."Vacation Places", I hope you stop in, join the map, and show us all your favorite vacation spots!

We had a fabulous 4th. I hope you all did too, as well, for those who celebrated. I shared some of the pictures with you of the fireworks that we shot off, and some that we captured of nearby neighbors. Landon, and the kids came over....Amanda had to work. Of course, the boys were just tooo anxious to start shooting of fireworks, and it was hard to keep them corraled (?) while we got things going for supper....we wanted to have everything ready, so we could enjoy the evening without having to take time for a break to go cook...so we got that all out of the way. We were amazed.... we went outside around 8:30 or 9,...set up our blanket in the yard...got our drinks, the fireworks all prepared and the time was finally here. It was getting a tad bit chilly...not really bad, but a little chilly for a baby....Mary only had on a little short outfit. So, I wrapped a blanket around her, and we went and sat on the blanket in the front yard. She stayed bundled up...found her thumb, and would laugh when I'd play with her. The sound of bottle rockets, and firecrackers, and screamers were starting to fill the air, and her eyes would get big....and then she'd laugh when I'd start saying "pop...pop pop" For over 2 hours, she laid on that blanket....never cried, or fussed when the banging was sometimes more than the adults could handle...and the artilery shells would explode so hard you could feel your insides move...and I'd run to the blanket, for sure that she would be in tears after that one....and all I would see would be smiles!!! Mary LOVED HER FIRST 4TH!

Kenny and Gabriel had an absolue ball! I don't know that I've EVER seen any two kids sooooooo dirty in my life!!! They were both barefooted, and had run back and forth through the black carbon snakes that lay all over the drive way...not to mention all the other dirt and firework debree on the ground. But, they had the time of their life!

Well, Friday, June 31st was our last day of work. Aaron left for Illinois Fri. afternoon, after I left...dropped off his dog at his mom and dad's, then caught a plane out of st. louie to LA to visit his girlfriend who is out there for 8 weeks. So...anyway, he was suppose to be back Wed. afternoon, and we were going to try to get some books shipped out, considering that we hadn't done anything in the past 4 days. Well, I guess it was about 11:30 when my cell rang, and it was Aaron...saying that he didn't know if he'd get back in time to do any work that day or not. He was at the airport...the battery on his car dead, and he still had to go to his parents...which is prob. an hour drive or so, to get Buddy...the dog, then back to columbia, which is about an 1 1/2-2 drive. then, on top of that, his laptop wasn't working, and we need it to process the orders and get the shipments out. So...things weren't going to smooth at that point. He called me again around 7...he had just gotten home, and was getting ready to have someone look at the puter and get it fixed, so we just opted to start fresh first thing on Thurs. The only prob....that meant it had been 5 days since any shipping had been done. When all was said and done...we had a about 7 pages of books for me to hunt up...amounting to about 120 books. IF...at all possible, they all needed to be packaged and ready to ship so I could be at the postoffice before 7. Needless to say....we didn't quite make it. We probably got about 3/4 of them sent out on Thursday night. The rest of them went out Friday morning, then more orders that came in on Friday, we packaged, and I took them to the postoffice on my way home. We FINALLY, got caught up! I will say that I worked my fanny off on Thurs. and Friday. I really did enjoy all those days off in a row that I got....but yet the whole time I was off, knew it meant that when I did get back to work, it was gonna be CRRRAAAAAAAAZY! And, I was right!!!

I have had a great day! it is so beautiful here in MO today...just a delightful, hot summer's afternoon. It's suppose to be in the upper 80's...which is about right, from the way it feels outside. Of course, the day started off perfect when I DIDN'T have to get outta bed....till I wanted. lol Which, I guess, was about 10. I had told myself last night, that I HAD to get some work done on this house today, and COULDN'T spend all day in front of this puter...hehehehehe. So, about 11 thismorning, after having about 3 cups of coffee...I decided I better get busy on the house...just do it and get it done, so that I'd have time later to sit down at the puter, and enjoy the rest of my afternoon. I got laundry started...bed made, bath picked up, and a couple loads of laundry folded and put away. I ran in...sat at the puter..check my emails, then decided I'd start on the living room. I'm starring at the 'dreaded kitchen'....the room I HATE the worst...lol Putting it off till last, which is the worst thing I could do...but, that's what I did today. So...by pushin' myself just a little, I had almost everything done that I needed to do by about 2:30...including the kitchen.lol I still have laundry in the dryer...and stopping to fold a load here and there, but for the most part, I'm just relaxing now, the housework done, and feeling pretty good about my day!

Well, I guess I'll head out. I do hope you'll all continue to visit my blogs...regardless of the repeats in post. There will be times when things will be posted to one blog, and not the other, I'm sure...for one reasone or another...although now, I'm not sure what that would be....lol Anyway..hope you've all had a wonderful week, and are thoroughly enjoying your weekend. I'll talk to you all soon....

See you in my blogs......
