Well HI! Been a while I know. Been a busy summer! So much to say…….. so little time!
ShawnDe, Kevin, and the kids are all here now. ShawnDe has a job finally, the kids are in school – matter of fact they all start tomorrow again – She is working for a bank. Everyone lives at Mikes house. LOL little crowded, but fun.
I got laid off in June - again!! Damnit! Oh well, it must be in His plan for a reason. Our church is amazing. We all go every week, and when we miss, it feels like the whole week is off somehow. For some reason I am not all that worried for the most part. I hate being unemployed, and here I am at it again. The economy sucks so bad I am having a hell of a time finding a new job, but again, it’s in His plan. Not mine to understand I suppose. Frustrating as that is.
I still have my wonderful guy Rick in my life. Wow! What a blessing he is. Not like anyone I’ve ever had in my life, and quite a nice change. I have spent a lot of time down in Montrose with him and his family. They all love me, even tho I’m not quite sure why. But man they do! And I love them too! His mom, Dorothy, is just a KICK!! She makes me laugh everytime I’m around her. His dad, Bill, is a doll. Both his sisters, Karie and Kim are wonderful women, and I think they are amazing.
I had the honor of meeting his cousins, Tami and Laura this summer and both are equally amazing women. I am very pleased to have met them both. They came all the way up from Louisiana to see everyone, and Rick is especially close to Tami. She is a dear, and been thru quite the hard time with a brain tumor and all that goes with it, and yet she is still here. A very strong, Godly woman.
We have had a very hard time this summer tryin to find a place to live. It has been extremely hard, with the economy going bust up here, and all the energy companies pullin up stakes. Lots of people moving out of the area, following the jobs, but no one here wants to drop their rent prices or acknowledge the fact that the BIG MONEY is gone. So we have just waited it out to see what would happen, and it worked. We have just found a 3 bedroom house with a HUGE LOT, all for an extremely reasonable rate!! Less than half of what the going rate is here, and I am thrilled!! I cannot wait. It will take about 3 weeks for us to move in, as the old tenants really tore the place up, but thats ok, I get to pick paint colors and appliances! This will be fun!!
