Happy 1 year Anniversary.

A year ago today (the day after Memorial Day) I loaded up the van and started out on my journey. I had some physical destinations in mind and planned but it was the non physical destinations that were uncertain. After about 7 weeks and around 7700 miles later, I came back to Idaho with a bit of an understanding of what I thought I was supposed to be doing next. Low and behold, I had no clue what I was really supposed to be doing but I remained with an open mind and HE guided me yet again to my current destination/purpose. It wasn't going back to school in the nursing field but applying for, interviewing, and getting the job with the State of Idaho. Now, after almost 6 months after starting the job, I am getting more and more into the works of the Family and Community Services Division of the Department of Health and Welfare. I work with a good group of people, enjoy the different situations and people that I encounter on a daily basis, don't mind the 17 mile commute into downtown Boise everyday, and continue to be Too Blessed to be Stressed. Life is Good and I am sincerely grateful for all my blessings.

I will continue to hang on, enjoy the ride, and keep my eyes and mind open to what may be put in front of me. Thanks for coming along.

Until next time. OUT!

RIP ~ Savana

Today our beloved dog of 13 and 1/2 years passed away after an unknown cancerous tumor ruptured. Yesterday evening she was her bubbly jumping up for joy and running around the backyard playing with the kids self but this morning Diana found her semi conscious and paralyzed in the back legs region. She got her to the vet but tests showed massive white blood cells and internal bleeding. They made her comfortable until we could get the kids out of school early to say goodbye. She was cremated and her ashes will be scattered in the tree farm.

She was a good part of our lives and will be truly missed.
