The Hope of America 2009 took place for us this year on the 6th of May. We captured some pictures and videos from this event our daughter performed in...
This morning when I was headed to go to work, I started my car. Now, you have to know that my car is a 1993, Ford Escort. This is a car that Jay Leno has made fun of and I must agree with some of his joking around. To say the least, the car is nickel and diming me, needs more repairs and is quite temper mental, and has more than just a personality of its own. It used to be that when it was severely cold after starting, it would engage the automatic locks. Well, now it seems to be doing that almost all the time. I didn't notice this in time, as I closed the door as I notice the shed door was open, and went to close the shed door, and then was locked out of my car with it running. Well, I had the back windows down a bit, but not quite far enough for me to reach in and unlock, but enough for a young child who could, so I thought of my neighbors kids who may not have gone to school yet, so I knocked. Then I remembered, they don't hear me when I knock or ring the door bell. So, I th...
There is a lot happening right now, or has been. My wife was pregenant, but no longer, because it turns out the pregancy was ectopic. She had to have surgery and one of her tubes had to be taken out to remove it. She is remaining as positive as she can be. She is in a lot of pain.

I have already let the other Bear leader know that I am needed at home, because of the surgery. We will see what tomorrow brings. The kids have a day off of school, teacher work day, I guess.
This is the title of a spoof Christmas song...dreaming of a tight Christmas...if you are loading my blog in the month of December you may hear it played in the play list below. This is the 2nd Christmas season in a row that I have been unemployed. It is a humbling and stress induced experience. I realize there are blessings involved, such as being able to spend more time with my wife and children, but sometimes it is quite frustrating, especially financially, to wonder if we will squeak by another month with mortgage and other bills being successfully paid. Where are all the IT jobs here in Utah County. I know there has to be at least one or two companies that could use my expertise. None the less. I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year. Hoping and praying that not only myself, but others who may be experiencing financial hardship may find relief in one form or another. God bless everyone.
