Simplicity is Key

Rolling dough in Haiti. Miss the people, miss the simplicity of life there. This makes me stay positive.

Update on my life. The kids are doing great. Man, we are so blessed to have such amazing adults. Jesse has moved to Missouri with Hannah to pursue a new career. Wade is busy being a father to my amazing grandchild. Gabby is back to school to be a nurse practitioner. Kaelan is still going to Spokane Community for a Criminal Justice degree. Emily is still at Whitworth College looking at getting into the psychological aspect of Criminal Justice. And Noah is finding his way still, but making it work in Spokane. All out of the house and living on their own without our help. Sometimes that is the greatest accomplishment in this day and age. I'm doing well with the Mortgage gig. I've never worked harder in my life, but I love it and the money is stupid. Dan and I are finding a new love of RVing. Every weekend we are either planning or going. I love spending time with him.

Excused Absence

Its been a crazy few days for me. I haven't been consistent in my writing as I should be. I went to the fall convention for the Realtor officers a few days ago, which was an experience in of itself.

It was like I was missing something the whole time I was there. My mind kept playing tricks on me as if I was forgetting something. That subtle voice in the back of your head that tells you something is amiss. Something was wrong, and didn't feel "right". I guess that is what b...

So I have been giving a lot of thought lately on going to night school and getting a degree in something. Well...The verdict is in. I don't think I will until the kids are older. I just don't have the time, or energy to work full time and sacrifice my precious time to sit in a classroom. It boggles me how some people do it. I prefer to live life to the fullest and enjoy my time as if it were my last moment on earth. I reflected on this earlier today. I was actually running about 10 minutes late for work. As I was driving along, there was a really bad accident. The only thought that came to mind was that I could have easily been in the middle of all of it had I been on time. How my life just flashed in front of me. Life is short, I'm going to enjoy it as much as possible.
