WE THINK ALIKE!!!!

Things have been so busy! Work keeps me hoppin! I love my new job. There are not many jobs where you can actually make a difference in someone's life everyday you go to work.
I love the facility that I work at and the people that live there I have grown attached to a few just in the short time that I have been there.
One in particular named Tim. If you have ever seen the movie Radio... that is him all over again!
He is legally blind and also has mental retardation. He is my buddy. He comes into my office and asks if he can play his CD on my computer. His favorite is The Bee Gees. #13 is his favorite which is Staying Alive. I haven't see him around at all this week, but he makes you smile when he does come around. I am so blessed to have found a job that I love so much. Thank you Lord for your blessings! I can't believe that I worked for Al Durso for so long. What was I thinking.
I have been "sick" lately. I have a cronic cough that has now moved down into my chest. I finally got some antibiotic and I am hoping it will rid me of having to cough every 5 seconds or so!
My purse business has taken off. The ladies at Oakwood continue to gobble them up. I am making UK (University of Kentucky) purses and they love them... you know people do "Bleed Blue" around here! I am so fortunate to have this one lady who bought one and has spread the word. She calls me everyday with new orders. I am really not even having to do hard core selling of them. The orders just come. It is nice to have some extra $$$ !
It is supposed to be spring here, but the weather is so crappy here. Rain/snow and cold! Bring on the real Spring!!!
Church is going good. We are trying out a new worship leader as we lost ours to Pastor another church full time. We are anxiously awaiting how God is going to yet again bless our church!
Our Youth group is slow going. Our kids are all about the fun stuff, but worshiping the Lord and Bible Study gives them short attention spans. But as my good buddy Judy says, just meet them where they are! So that is what we contine to do.

Desert Wind
Look for the new CD out by Desert Wind.
Michael and his band spent all day yesterday in the recording studio making their CD.
Pretty cool to have such a talented hubby!

What a week!
Well, it has been a while and I am sorry for that! Glad to be back in the world of bloggers!
I started my new job this past Tues.
God is so good and his mercy is everlasting!
He has blessed me with such a wonderful job. I am working in H.R. for a place called Oakwood.
Oakwood is a facility for folks with mental retardation and other mental issues.
I am so fortunate to be able to have gotten on there in H.R. I love, love, love it!
Thank you God for this wonderful job!
Well, as many of you know, it is Girl Scout Cookie time. This brings great enjoyment to our home. I love the once a year that I get to get Thin Mints.
Well, this year it meant something else for our household. It meant that Mandie (our Lab) has found a new love of the Peanut Butter Patties. I came home from lunch with a friend last week, and she had pulled the box off the counter and ate 14 of them.
I called the vet and them told me to rush her in. So we went to the vet where they proceeded to induce her vomiting and when that didn't work, they had to go in and pump her stomach! Poor girl. She was having a hard time. But now she is doing good. Silly little girl scout!
Spring is beginning to creep in on us. Our pear tree is starting to bloom and it will be in full bloom soon. It is rainy season here in the end of March and April, so let the fun begin.
I love spring time in the Bluegrass. It is my favorite time of year. I cannot believe it is going to be 4 years that I have lived in Kentucky. My life has been so richly blessed since I moved here. I know that people thought I was super crazy when I packed up and left, but now seeing how life has turned out for me here I think they would agree that God has a purpose for everything and knows the plans that he has for us!
Well, I guess that is about all for now. I promise to try to be better about blogging!

To all you blog Nazi's and you know who you are...get off my back! :O)
We have had a week of sickness in our household. Michael had strep throat and now I am getting a sinus infection. NOT FUN!
I am waiting to hear of 2 job opportunities and should know something early this coming week!
I found out that my cousin Ty is doing well, and that the Dr.'s do not feel that the cancer has spread and that he is going to be fine! Praise God!
That is about all that is going on right now. Will blog more this week!
