You all will laugh at this crazy rumor and a crazy coincidence too! I am not upset, and I had to laugh too. I am so thankful to find this out and got that straighten out this afternoon. (I did post it on the facebook to correct the rumor that is going around.)
This is crazy! Apparently there has been a rumor going around telling people that I am married. A wonderful deaf friend texted me on my cell phone and asked me that question "Want to know if its true or not. Are u married?. My reply was "No I am not married." I did ask her "Who said that?". Then her reply was that "Smile. Someone saw ur name on phone book and said Harrell-Owens where u live".
Oh boy! It was the phone book! I never saw my name in the phone book in the first place. I did check that under Harrell then look under Harrell-Owens and didn't see it. Then I had to look under Owens-Harrell.
Yes, it is listed under Owens-Harrell. I am glad that she told me about this. This is so crazy! Owens is my middle name from my lovely grandmother's maiden name. No wonder why I never saw my name listed under Harrell!
I am thankful for wonderful friend to tell me this and to clear up the answer to that question. What a day is this! This is wonderful news to me instead bad and ugly rumor. Some rumors are hard to clear up.
I just got that corrected this afternoon at Time Warner with the phone bill to let them know and the phone book to prove that error to them. It should be correct in the next phone book.
I was very curious why someone would think to look under Owens instead of Harrell in the phone book. The only conclusion that I reach to was that they thought that I was married to Owens because I have been "dating" John Owen (without the "s") by reading his book a lot lately, and I have mention that times to times on the facebook of having a date with John Owen and his book. What a coincidence for that to happened! This is too crazy to think about this!
I had to laugh at this crazy coincidence! I love this kind of crazy rumor. At least, I do hope that my friends on the facebook will see the truth out of that. Oh well! What a crazy day for me! The Lord is so good. I am so thankful for an easy kind of rumor to clear up the problem instead of bad and ugly rumor to clear up the problem.
Yes, I am still looking forward another wonderful date with John Owen and his wonderful book in The Mortification of Sin again and his other wonderful books later!

I am finding that losing weight isn't easy job for me. I have tried to do my own exercise, and I have fail at that. So therefore, I solved the problem by joining YMCA today. I am going give that a try. Please do hold me accountable to lose the weight in my middle. I really want to get down to size 10 again and not be in 12 which I am currently am wearing.
Lord willing, I will try post the improvement that I have done weekly or monthly. Next week is my first week, and I am looking forward to have an Orientation appointment with the trainer on Monday at 11.
I do other kind of exercise as I work in my yard or in my beautiful organic garden, but I am finding it hard to get rid of my middle. I do know that I am building muscle on my arms and legs.
At the Y’s, I do know that I will be doing cardio exercise and looking forward to that in every way. Cardio exercise should help me to lose the weight in my middle.
We all do need to be fit and healthy for Christ too.
This also will give me extra opportunity to reach out to the people that need to know Christ and to invite them to come and taste and see that the Lord is good at Christ Baptist Church of Wilson.

8 “Or what woman, having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and seek diligently until she finds it? 9 And when she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin that I had lost.’ 10 Just so, I tell you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” Luke 15:8-10 ESV
