So much has happened this year. I find the woman who is the light of my life... Dad progressively loses the battle with cancer... My sister fights her illness with grace; as usual... and that career opportunity - in fact a paying job - still eludes me. I have fixed the gutters, roof, and cleaned the house top to bottom... but that just doesn't make me feel complete. Rebecca is wonderful. Her children are challenging, but great. I look forward to mornings like I never have before!

I wish everyone better economic and social situations. I've met so many new people... my brain is on hold with names. Learning Lansing hasn't been too bad... but I could really use a good reason to drive them - Like a job!! We haven't lost the house yet.
