So much is going on in our world right now. Darb's is sick...sinus infection that's making her cough up stuff like an old person. She's also been running a fever, max of 103.1! How's that for sick! Bodie is crawling and sitting up. Crawling....everywhere, we can't keep up with him! He's into the dog bowls in a second if you're not watching. My job has been extra busy and stressful, but maybe things are looking up (it's job security for one of us right now). Matt, however is not looking good at the railroad. I am ready for the economy to turn around and pick up. Matt is going to be laid off this weekend when his vacation is over. Vacation...he only took a vacation b/c if he didn't then we wouldn't have gotten a pay check for the past couple of weeks, so at least he got his full 2 weeks paid vacation to make one last decent paycheck. We cancelled our planned vacation for September, a week at the beach just the 4 of us. I don't know what we are going to do. I am going to trust in the Lord b/c he knows more than us and has a bigger plan. We have sold one of our vehicles to help lighten the load for a while. I am just trying to be as positive as I can in a world of negatives.

First off I'm sorry to hear that Darby is sick again. I can't imagine what its like to have one sick and one crawling all over the place.

Secondly I know how hard it is when you get laid off. I am the only one that works and was laid off 6 weeks after returing from maternity leave. I know how tough things can get but just keep faith. We found out later that getting laid off was the best thing that could have happened to me. I got a much better paying job with more stability. You'll be in my prayers.
