It’s been a little scary lately with all of these large earthquakes happening all over the world. It’s times like these that I think about what it will be like if the “big one” strikes here. It also helps me to realize that I need to look at earthquake emergency kits and either buy one or make one for our family.

We all have our “off” days. It goes something like this: You wake up late and you just can’t seem to get motivated to do anything.

I’m sitting here on Christmas morning – sneaking in some computer time while the kids play with their new toys and eating a quick bowl of cereal. As the year is drawing to an end, I’m starting to reflect on a lot of things. I’ll write more on my reflections in the coming days.
This will be short and sweet…I’ve had the same site design since I started this blog over a year ago. I’ve wanted a new design – but it’s quite pricey, so I’ve stuck with what I have.
Ok, so let me just start off by saying that there’s nothing exciting here. But I got up at 5:30 yesterday morning and on the spur of the moment decided to go out and shop. There was only a couple of things I wanted, so I ran to Walmart first.
Happy Thanksgiving.
It’s that time of year where we start to reflect on all we are thankful for and I am just overflowing with thankfulness. The year started out very tough for us, both financially and with just a lot of bad experiences. The end of the year holds another story.
