Ups and Downs

I went through and read all the blogs I normally read and I realized that of all the ones that have been too busy to blog I am behind the most (except for Taylor, who looks like he has given up). It has been a rough month. As you most know Kevin is now unemployed. Cut-backs at Federal Mogul, and he was one of them. I have been trying to go to school and with so much on my mind lately it has been really hard to concentrate on my classes. This is to the point that one of my classmates and friend has commented several times that I am not myself because I can't seem to pay attention or remember anything. Thankfully, she has been trying to keep me straight. Kevin has had several things fall through so he decided to do something radical. He left for Berryville, Virginia this morning at 4:18 a.m. We have friends there he will stay with. As it stands right now he will stay for 2 weeks unless he gets a job there. If he gets a job he will stay and try to come home Thanksgiving. He already has one interview on Monday morning so please pray for him-it pays really good and it was very similar to what he was doing at his last job. This is a big step for us because we have lived in Monticello together all of our 23 years of marriage. Kevin moved here when he was in the 7th grade. We are all scared to death because we will be basically starting over, but we think there are more opportunities in that area. We also feel God is leading us there. It's really hard to know for sure where we will eventually end up, but we know that He is with us wherever we are. He is driving his old beat-up, Honda Accord, 5-speed with over 200,000 miles on it and this a test of my faith today and tomorrow to try my best not to go insane with worry about him. But I KNOW that God will take care of him because I have asked. Thank you Lord. I'll try to keep you updated about the trip and job hunt. Thanks for all your prayers!!

Please help

help,Help,HElp,HELp,HELP!!!!! I need help putting my picture on my profile. Is there anybody out there who can explain it to me in language I can understand??? I have been trying to do this for hours and cannot get it. Please, Please help me!!

Fall Coming???????

Is it me, or is it just wishful thinking? Is there a little coolness in the air? Just a little when the wind blows??? I love this time of year when it starts cooling down just a little bit. It brings relief and hope that the heat will be over with someday. I love yellow, red, and yes, even brown leaves falling off the trees. Although this year I think the leaves started falling early because of the scorching heat and no rain. Fall just always gives me a little lift and that is something I really need right now. Bring on the cold weather!!!!!
