Well, yesterday I attended the viewing of a 9 year old boy who passed away from cancer. He attended our school last year - he was in and out all school year. It was very sad. His mom is VERY young - like my age and she was pitiful. I guess it reminded me that life is a precious gift. Not to be wasted. Appreciate each breath you breathe. Each morning you wake up and another sunrise - use each minute as if it were your last. Invest your life and energies in things that truly matter. No one is promised tomorrow.
Also, on the political side. We had a huge discussion around our campfire this past weekend concerning politics. Basically - I would have to agree with much of the discussion. People feel the republican party is the lesser of two evils. But, now a days the lines are so fine - It hardly makes a different. People believe that republicans will stand up for traditional values but it is primarily "lip service" soon to be swayed by lobbyists. For example - the governor of California (I dare not butcher the spelling of his name) - is republican and he is now probably going to vote for a law to be passed the requires all public schools to have the gay flag in the classrooms. Is this what republicans are all about? I say both the democrat and republicans are fairly corrupt. Anyway. Feel free to comment if you dare. :)
How do you catch a unique rabbit? ........ Unique up on him. ha ha.
Also, my golden birthday is coming up. I will turn 26 on the 26th. I am getting so old. Oh- woe is me!!!!

Hey! nice to see another "blog" entry :-) I check regularly. I know things are in kind of a sad state politically right now, but I'm glad we have a President that doesn't bow to the negative bashing of the media - I'm on his team! Speaking of your birthday, I mailed your gift today so, if it doesn't arrive quite on time, it's on its way! Love you both...
Hi Tara! Just to let you know, that Paul Davey passed away yesterday morning. He left the store in June and was diagnosed in July with cancer. He probably died from complications of pneumonia. His sister then died 11 hours later. Very sad, he was 49. Thought you would want to know.
Wow...Uncle Jeff, that is so sad!! How horrible!! Paul was always such a nice guy to work with! Very pleasant!!
By the way, you need to post on my blog! I'm highly offended!! :)
