So he can check everything and if everything is ok. Well all came back fine except for one thing. I'm at risk for HEART DISEASE!!! I've always been told since I was in my early twenty's that I have had bad cholesterol, I guess it's genetic, That's what the doctor told me. But I asked him why none of the doctors never gave me medicine to try to control it. And his responce was because I was still in my child bearing age. WHAT! LIKE I'M STILL NOT!!!! So He want's to put me on meds but there could be no chance that I get pregnant. I would have to go on somekind of birth control or an IUD. At this point at the doctors office I was so upset!!!! Bc I know that I am supposed to have 1 more child. So I rejected the medicine. So I went home and cried the rest of the day!! But meanwhile after being with the doctor. He is ordering me to exercise at least 4 times a week and go on a strict diet!!!<br />Which both of these are very hard for me to do! I hate to excerise and I LOVE FOOD!!!<br />obviously!!! So after prayer and a couple days to calm down. Im going to my OB with my lab results in hand and see what kind of medication would be safe for me to take and kinda get his feed back on what would happend if I were to become pregnant (bc the other dr said I would have to get abortion, and I told him that would never happend). But After sitting and really pondering on this situation I know that I need to get my self healthy and I still have 5 children that I need to care for and look after. I know I need to get healty for them!!! and for myself!!! So Im going to go on the medication and strict exercise and strict dieting!!!! This will be so hard for me, but I know I can do it!!!Rachel Benefieldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04345780913110706273noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588189613440799714.post-91457177315346305332009-06-17T13:37:00.000-07:002009-06-17T13:46:44.147-07:00My new adventureWell I have finally decided to sell pampered chef! Actually me and my wonderful friend Shaelyn has decided to partner up and do it together! My other friend Angie has put the idea in my head a few times since I have hosted a few shows for her. And I've always told her it really isn't for me. Then Shaelyn thought maybe we could do it together and after some thinking I didn't think it was a bad idea!!! I sure do host enough PC shows, Why not sell it!!!! So with that being said.... If anyone wants to host a show for us We would be delighted or we can do a catalog show!!!Rachel Benefieldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04345780913110706273noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588189613440799714.post-70647311858148229022009-05-23T17:33:00.000-07:002009-05-23T18:49:36.264-07:00Announcing #8 in the Benefield family<div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgq9b1WUhe0WKF6tkqJiKyugb798BuYFUpydCEygez0L1x1w9LF8mJBaMA_1A-DI_NmWNpPR8udGE8BOEI1XayJqiwfibVkghyknzfa-YI0U3EPKOTE4E0f-MeGjpU7HRaiGcilm9-thFw/s1600-h/027.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5339184968024458578" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgq9b1WUhe0WKF6tkqJiKyugb798BuYFUpydCEygez0L1x1w9LF8mJBaMA_1A-DI_NmWNpPR8udGE8BOEI1XayJqiwfibVkghyknzfa-YI0U3EPKOTE4E0f-MeGjpU7HRaiGcilm9-thFw/s320/027.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjn5QuO14doAYgHnMIxcV9XOeCdtQHmtmY9C_kTNXDfwyI91sGzzZ9ZWaM0PUnWpmwgBlMaXu4TGn_xnlfQPpYMKvJ1RIHRYjA4SjsgZZAcO0scrA4DX0Np_NUWuJ4luZVfYesrc_p-WQE/s1600-h/035.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5339182685087884546" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjn5QuO14doAYgHnMIxcV9XOeCdtQHmtmY9C_kTNXDfwyI91sGzzZ9ZWaM0PUnWpmwgBlMaXu4TGn_xnlfQPpYMKvJ1RIHRYjA4SjsgZZAcO0scrA4DX0Np_NUWuJ4luZVfYesrc_p-WQE/s320/035.JPG" border="0" /></a><br />Welcome Hunter!<br />The kids have been begging us for the longest time to get an animal.

We'll I'm not really an animal person but when I saw this little guy I must say my heart melted. We got him from the humane society in rogers they have about 7 of his litter left.

Never in my life had I ever recieved such a cheap electric bill. Well then yesterday I recieved another electric bill for $68 and some change. So I'm confused about the two different bills and two different account numbers and all. So I call carroll electric. and when I fianlly get a hold of someone, she tells me that I have 2 different accounts!!! HMMMMM, no I don't I said! Then she goes on about how I have an account at spruce and one on maple. Then I go onto telling her that we transferred our service on November 1st. That they were soppused to had shut off our service on spruce. I MEAN, SINCE WHEN AM I SOPPUSED TO TELL THE ELECTRIC COMPANY HOW TO DO THERE JOB...so anyways, I told her that I needed to speak to a supervisior, kept getting a run around. Well about after a hour of dealing with this lady, and nothing resolved she tells me that they haved to get it verified from the landlords that we did move out on the first.. I mean isin't getting your service transferred enough proof. Like I want to keep living in a house with no service. But apperently it was never shut off. Well The landlords have had construction workers and everybody and there brother over there at our old house getting it ready to sell it. And all of this time were being charged for the electric being used over there!!!<br /><br />Hopefully today we can get something worked out.<br />But can you imagine???Rachel Benefieldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04345780913110706273noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588189613440799714.post-83944481793453418782008-11-25T19:54:00.000-08:002008-11-25T20:18:34.366-08:00You've been tagged!1) Wrapping paper or gift bags?<br />I use both.

Before I ever answered the phone something didn't feel right I just knew something was bad. I'm not sure if it was because the last time she called was to tell my my grandmother died, but anyways, I answered... And she said Mom has cancer.. I didn't say anything. I didnt know how. It just took me back to when I was ten. My mom had uterus cancer 19 years ago. She was in stage 5. The tumor on her uterus was the size of a baseball. They found it when she was giving birth to my youngest sister Savannah.<br />But although she was stage 5 of this nasty cancer she beat it. Has been in remission for I don't know how long... So now It starts all over with Lung cancer. I just feel so useless, sad, mad all off the above. She has already said that she is not doing Chemo thearpy this time. She said she done it once and is not doing it again. And feels that when it's her time to go she is going without a fight. It's so hard to even think of this and I can't imagine how she feels but she is in very good spirits. probally because im a blubberring mess for the both of us. But it's just so hard when it's your mom. And I just feel so horrible for my sister that is only 18 years old.<br />Hopefully we can all get threw this and see what tomorrow brings!!!Rachel Benefieldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04345780913110706273noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588189613440799714.post-57778890939258401022008-11-05T07:27:00.000-08:002008-11-05T07:40:51.307-08:00Words from my mother in lawWell like most you of I stayed up last night watching the election and hoping and praying that Mccain would pull threw but all along I just knew that Obama would win and my worst night mares came true... He won ;o( . I just sat on my couch in disbelief and just really quiet for a moment and then I had to call the one person that I am really close to and give her the news I knew she was asleep but I didn't care. My mother in law... So indeed I did wake her up and gave her the news. She said that she wasn't surprized but she also told me that this is the signs of the times and from here on out she believes that things are going to go down hill from here and urging me to get our food storage squared away, pray with your family, Do all the things that the lord wants you to do and most of all Hold your family tight and don't let go..<br />So I just wanted to share this message with all of you guys and pray that we will pull threw the next 4 years.....Rachel Benefieldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04345780913110706273noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588189613440799714.post-90125517188063402782008-09-21T12:47:00.000-07:002008-09-21T12:54:00.536-07:00Noah's First Hair Cut<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4gFZ1qYziRJ6NCO7Znuk74gtKFzyOpi0BTUAzHb4zaw4px4SOMFslVKclVvzLIxZ8gcwz2jjnLGgsrVmFVeammaoNrBAw2P1isJzrjyXe1jyMmFa0jvtJ4fVnH8U4YOBQWQrssNcJ0PY/s1600-h/noah+hair+cut+355.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5248565256280752530" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4gFZ1qYziRJ6NCO7Znuk74gtKFzyOpi0BTUAzHb4zaw4px4SOMFslVKclVvzLIxZ8gcwz2jjnLGgsrVmFVeammaoNrBAw2P1isJzrjyXe1jyMmFa0jvtJ4fVnH8U4YOBQWQrssNcJ0PY/s400/noah+hair+cut+355.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsm9__hwsHF9brEPgZSCJl9xiThV9CM5TJ6BclFqiVjI1jngKhzGaH2E_2UIvQbaWHRjKaO6uvg-ScRNzQUydFwjIJZGI40I07Hf_9bgKtXSxvjBJFH969XFuu4vWkOwSQLsJCwc7Rd-g/s1600-h/noah+hair+cut+356.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5248565259084574146" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsm9__hwsHF9brEPgZSCJl9xiThV9CM5TJ6BclFqiVjI1jngKhzGaH2E_2UIvQbaWHRjKaO6uvg-ScRNzQUydFwjIJZGI40I07Hf_9bgKtXSxvjBJFH969XFuu4vWkOwSQLsJCwc7Rd-g/s400/noah+hair+cut+356.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJOLU92FEWrhz4UnIEjUdM2iEp_vlna-1v62qA-3gK1ShyIp2HMwfopbUEkIrnqhC_BrRvu-pJTF3Gt3ObaluyPeA5enmqxVraCCbyRm_oVVm8R1b5ZcDzJXX7TVmqAEilXoOvOYYmFOU/s1600-h/noah+hair+cut+357.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5248565266947564962" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJOLU92FEWrhz4UnIEjUdM2iEp_vlna-1v62qA-3gK1ShyIp2HMwfopbUEkIrnqhC_BrRvu-pJTF3Gt3ObaluyPeA5enmqxVraCCbyRm_oVVm8R1b5ZcDzJXX7TVmqAEilXoOvOYYmFOU/s400/noah+hair+cut+357.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Noah had his first hair cut yesterday.

Well after I drop him off We are driving down 102 and Logan is in the back in his car seat and he starts saying Snake. And I ignore him at first and then he says snake again, So then Im thinking maybe he had a plastic snake in the back of the car, So still not really alarmed. So I'm still driving then he say's snake moving. I said WHAT!!!!!. So I pulled over as soon as I could to see what in the world was going on, got out opened the door still didnt see anything so I jumped up to look, sure enough a SNAKE!!!<br /><br />Lets rewind a bit..... Chris earlier in the day went up to his work to meet a friend that was giving him a bunch of boxes for when we move. So there were tons of boxes folded down in he back of the car. So I guess that's where the snake came from It was laying right on the edge of the box right where Logans foot was. OMG! I was a mess. I opened up the back hatch trying to get the stinkin boxes out and mainly that certain one but the stupid snake kept moving I was freaking out and Poor Logan was freaking out I think bc I was. Well I fianlly got that one box out of the car and threw it down on the concrete and when I did another snake came slithering on out. Im standing there like I have Ants in pants hooping and hollering. Oh my goodness I was so disgusted... I was on my way to sign sealed and delieved for there scrapbooking rummage sale. But needless to say I hurried my butt home so I could tell Chris to get the rest of the boxes out of the car. And I was so paranoid when I was driving home. I just felt like there were snakes all over me.. ughghh!! So when I got back home, Chris did take the rest of the boxes out and luckily no more snakes.<br />Rest assure there is never a dull moment in the life of a Benefield!!!Rachel Benefieldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04345780913110706273noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588189613440799714.post-18822895182491189862008-08-28T07:34:00.000-07:002008-08-28T07:41:04.500-07:00My project for the day!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZ8FSY8FneC6kGQTsTTQpqe9ps9od_iiePbVGJMNMDVJu4l7O6R2rHT0UNy4v0oqINH1wnVkbngIltMkBt-9qKT2CsD8tqYYHh7HoK0pv5QwOvUogw5aj4dKgVOsdrXC4AyMnH2ref9GE/s1600-h/hair+bows+005.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5239578523199119778" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZ8FSY8FneC6kGQTsTTQpqe9ps9od_iiePbVGJMNMDVJu4l7O6R2rHT0UNy4v0oqINH1wnVkbngIltMkBt-9qKT2CsD8tqYYHh7HoK0pv5QwOvUogw5aj4dKgVOsdrXC4AyMnH2ref9GE/s400/hair+bows+005.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>I thought I would be a little productive this morning and start making some hair bows for faith.
