Okay so I'm doing it again, admitting that I don't always have the Courage to change the things I can. Unbelievable that my whole life has changed (sometimes just in regards to perspective) and I haven't totally admitted this to myself.I was at a meeting this morning before church and a lady was talking about the struggle she has been having addressing her financial situation. She's been taking the mail in and burning it rather than opening it, seeing her debt and calling to make payment ...
Respond with Love
My family was hit really hard over the Christmas and New Year break with colds, nursing the girls was successful but alas now it is my turn. Of course it is.

Easy Does It
Only 6 days until Jesus' Birthday!!!! Each year our 2 precious little girls go to their Grandmother's for the weekend at this time to celebrate their birthdays. They are both born in December....great planning I know ;) What this meant each year is that hubby and I would run to the liquor store and beer store, call up friends and have great food, drinks and friends with lots of sleeping it off for the weekend. We were always wrecked when they returned. What were we going to do this year? ...
