Don't worry. Its still me; I just changed the title a little bit. The old title was getting alittle confusing between me and my mom... and I liked the Shieldmaiden idea better... hehe.
What is a shieldmaiden? A shieldmaiden was a woman warriar for her country and king. Eowyn in The Lord of the Rings was a shieldmaiden. I figured that if I'm a 'soldier' for the LORD then I would actually be a shieldmaiden. I like that term better than 'soldier'; not that it really matters...
Anyway, I thought that I would let you know so that ya'll wouldn't get worried. Hehe! I just hope that I spelled it right!!!
Until the next time fair warriors!

About the election and things on my moms blog
OK. Inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale. Seeeeeethe.
I do not know how many people visit my blog and my moms, but I know that there are a few, and if any of the ones who left the comments on her blog questioning some of her stuff visit mine, then I have a few things to say to you:
(Please read all the way through even if you don’t like it; and if you have any comments, put your name or initials on them.)
One: We DO NOT (and by we I mean America) repeat; DO NOT deserve God’s blessing at all. For we have ALL sinned and fallen short of the glory of God* (Romans 3:23) and so far, I have not seen America bless God or follow His standards. (And I would like to thank the lady that pointed this out on my mom’s blog)
We have ‘christians’ that are gay.
We go to church every week, but during the week we are demon possessed heathens.
We say that abortion is ok, because the mother has right to make her own choices ect. ect. (What about the innocent little life that she is carrying? Does that baby have a choice?).
We allow other religions around us that HATE our God and us, ‘but that’s ok’ ‘we need to be culture friendly’.
We have elected people as our leaders, who we KNOW do not follow God (and I am not just talking about Obama).
Need I go on?
God said that we are not to tolerate the gays because He WILL NOT tolerate what they are doing. Though He still loves them, they will not go to Heaven.
God has a law written that says "Thou shall not MURDER". Point blank.
God has said that He does NOT: N- O- T; does not want us to accept other religions or be around them, because we can become SO perverted and influenced in a bad way by these other religions and turn away from Him.
And finally we need to pray and choose a leader that would please God, NOT us.
WE HAVE GONE ASTRAY AND TURNED EVERYONE TO HIS OWN WAY!!* (Isaiah 53:6)
So, am I saying that God shouldn’t bless our country?
YEP.
We are mocking Him to His face, we have turned our backs on Him, we are rejecting Him, we are lucky that he has not annihilated us as it is!!! And Heaven knows that we ought to be disintegrated, but praise be; He LOVES us, red, yellow, brown, black, white, pink, orange, purple, blonde, brunet, ash, raven,; HE LOVES US, but we have shown that we hate Him. So why should He bless us?!
America, BLESS YOUR GOD.
Two: We are going to a one world currency…
Sorry, but we just are. The Bible says we are.
Don’t take my word for it though, go look it up in your Bible yourself!
Three: This whole election was about race.
If you do not think that this whole election was about race… look again.
I personally do not care if we have a black president, but what was wrong with Allen Keys when he was running for president? The Media ran Mr. Keys to the ground, but lifted Barack Hussein Obama up like a god. What is wrong with this picture?
I like change! I was all for a new sort of president when Clinton was in. That needed to change!
There is nothing wrong with change, but change is meant to be for the BETTERMENT of the people and country; not for the worse. ‘Dictator Deluxe Hussein’ is not for America’s betterment. SORRY! He is not! His religion says that he is to destroy us and the Muslims said that they would destroy us from within our country… if you don’t think that Barack is not Muslim then why does he not honor our solders and our flag and the Holy Bible???? Because Islam forbids it. His dad was Muslim so he probably is too.
And finally: SHUT UP PEOPLE!!!!
Anyone who is truly in the LORD’S army, needs to stop bickering and haggling about the stupid election and president and start reaching out to people and telling them to repent of their sins! And I mean repent. We are running out of time and I don’t want to go before God empty handed!
This ‘you ask Jesus into your heart and you’ll be saved’ goody, goody feeling thing has so got to quit! People need to be really convicted and repent!
The Bible says that if you believe that Jesus came to earth as a man, died for your sins and rose from the dead and if you repent of your sins and acknowledge that Jesus is Lord; then, only then, you will be saved.**
Sack the ‘feel goodie- goodie’ thing and get real! This is not supposed to feel all good and fuzzy about yourself and what you have done! You are supposed to gain a deep peace in your heart that you are secure in God’s arms and start yearning to learn more about Him and to reach others and tell them about what He did for you and them. That yearning is a desperate feeling! We are under spiritual warfare whether you want to admit it or not! The devil is trying to kill us and your spirit is supposed to know that and be feeling desperate to reach out to the lost in sin and dying!
And this does not mean ‘go into foreign missions’. America is a mission. God often calls us to start in our own home town. The world starts where you are at. When He said "go into all the world" He did mean foreign countries, but it starts at your own home!
(That makes me feel better that I can start somewhere close.)
I don’t like it that our country has become so perverted that other countries are sending their people to preach the Gospel to us!
Wake up!
America is a heathen country now and it is gonna get worse! Much worse! We have got to have a revival and preach the true Gospel to our countrymen. Not the gospel according to Barack Obama or Al Gore or Hillary Clinton or George or Mary or Becky or Sweetpea or whomever; it has got to be GOD’S/ JESUS’.
Have I made a point?
I don’t care if you don’t want to read it or hear it, but I have been silent long enough and could not stand it any longer.
Sorry if you don’t like what I have to say, but ya know what? I was not put on this earth to please man; I was put on this earth to please God and bring glory to him. So there. (I must have some of my mom’s saspot in me.)
I have told you what God has put on my heart. He most likely would have said it more gently, but then he could say it with a loud booming voice too.
This may seem rude and out of place for a Seventeen year old, but then; who was gonna do it when God put it on my heart.
From here on, I will be talking little about politics and much about Salvation.
Politics is stupid, Salvation is real.
While this is still a free country, I have an opinion and I can voice it… or write it. You also have an opinion, so leave a comment if you so wish.

After drivers test three...
A couple of ways to run a stop sign:
(Don’t sweat, its easy, trust me.)
1. Just forget that it is there and drive on.
2. Slowly edge forward, but never stop (I found this out on my third flunked driving test the other day).
3. If driving a standard, go half way past the stop sign and kill the motor… just don’t kill your grandmother with a minor heart attack over it… better yet, don’t have her in the vehicle.
4. Start stopping, but when you remember that you don’t need to turn just keep driving forward. A tip on this one: don’t do it behind the police station.
5. Am I telling you this out of experience? Yep.
6. If you have any other ideas on how to run a stop sign; please tell us in your comment.
7. Am I mad over not passing my third driving test? Nope. I’M JUST EXTREMLY DEPRESSED!!!!!!!!
Stop sign runnin gal: Sweetpea
Why oh why cant I figure out that STOP does not mean Slightly Tap On Pedel?

Driving test #1
A few tips for those of you who are soon going to be taking a drivers test and some comedy for those of you who have taken it…
1 When you get in the vehicle take three deep breaths; in, out, in, out, in, out.
2 When the examiner gets in the vehicle touch your mirrors and make sure they are adjusted correctly just for his benefit.
3 When you back up do not look through your mirrors but look over your right shoulder even if you are driving a van… grrrr.
4 If you should be asked to turn left onto a four lane road, please turn into the left lane not the right… bad habit.
5 At a stop light even if you have the right of way, look both ways just in case someone should run the red light; and be rather exaggerated about it just for the examiners benefit.
6 Be sure to study lots on the different ways of parking before you take your test so that you at least have some idea how to parallel park and please remember which way to turn your wheels when parking on a hill… ahem.
7 As I said earlier, look behind your right shoulder when backing no matter what… you may look behind your left for a moment, but not to long.
8 When turning please remember to hug the right turn and swing the left turn. Not hard.
9 And last but definitely not least, PLEASE, no matter how nervous you are, DO NOT run the stop sign… as I did… Ow that hurt.
If you are wondering if I am telling you out of experience, then the answer is yes.
My first drivers test, I turn into the right lane instead of the left on a four lane road (I have the parents to blame for that one though… hehe), I didn’t exaggerate my looking both ways for the examiner, so he took it that I didn’t look, I completely flunked the parallel parking, I forgot to turn my tiers when parking on a hill by a curb, I didn’t look behind my right shoulder when backing (course I couldn’t see a thing when backing in that big, clumsy van anyway) and last of all I ran a stop sign… Ow that hurt.
So these are some things for you to consider and hopefully remember in the future.
The examiner did not quite agree with the S.T.O.P. meaning that I gave him…
Slightly Tap On Pedal, but he took it very well!
Humbly yours,

Drivers test #2
This is going to be rather short. I have one more thing to add to my first drivers test list:
10 Endeavor not to bump over a curb… especially with both wheels.
Yes, sadly and MOST UPSETTINGLY I did not pass my second test simply because I bumped over a curb in the van… right from the start.
I was not nervous this time, however the examiner (he was a different one this time) seemed to be the nervous one.
He had to ‘end the simulation immediately’ after I bumped over the curb… with both tiers… grrrr.
“You either need more practice, or” he looks around at the rather large van “Or you need a different vehicle.” Then he gets out of the van walks into the building and tells my mother the same thing.
My mother is shocked.
“She never bumps over a curb. I am usually getting on to her to get closer to them.” Is what she says.
So anyway, we are both thinking that # three is a charmer and we are going to get the windshield fixed in the pickup (or borrow someone else’s) so that I can try the test in it.
We went to the ‘miniature city’ in the pickup the other day and I drove the whole time and did perfectly fine in it except that I forgot to look over my right shoulder when backing a few times, but that was it. There was a lot of traffic that day, but I still did fine. I am just way more comfortable in the pickup.
So I will eventually type again and tell you of my third try at trying to earn a little piece of plastic that says I can drive. Until then… pray for me and the dear examiners.
Yours truly,
Aggravated, upset, van unloving, not feeling sweet or Christ like right now,

Death to computers!!!
OK. It wasn't actually the computer this time. It was my little hard drive that was not suppose to die. So much for that. It choked, died and took everything that I had on it with it to Davey Jones Locker...I know! Davey Jones is not real, but it didn't go to heaven either! I had two documents that were not saved over to my computer and some pictures and my book. Yes, MY BOOK. I do have my book updated; however I had not recently updated it onto my computer and I had a whole complicated page and a half typed on it. RRRRRRR!!!
Burp, choke, die- repeat Burp, choke, die.... is anyone else seeing a pattern here? I am!
The little picture is supposed to be an animation of a computer burning up. I don't exactly want to burn my computer- I would rather zap it to life then throttle it. Or the hard drive in this instance. Anyway. Hopefully I can get some more un-irratated posts on here soon. Until then.
