Today we had some guests arrive from AZ. They are originally friends of Rob's and Betsy's, but I claim them as friends now too. Jeanie and Marv flew in his airplane from Camp Verde. Marv comes from Canada eh and is a retired school teacher among other things and Jeanie is something like a hydrogeologist. I could be wrong on that, but she is a pretty smart cookie. Anyway, after they arrived, I went up to the site and started working on the foundation for the library/guesthouse again. I started thinking about all the crap I've got to get done before school starts (if I get accepted), and I started freaking out. It mostly has to do with going to work at State Farm again (if I'm accepted). I hated that place and now I'm turning back to it again because I know I can earn a decent living doing it. I feel like I'm selling my soul though, cuz I know I'll be miserable selling something I hate talking about just for a dime and a nickel. But on the bright side, at least I'll have a job in this torn up economy, and I'll be able to finish (hopefully) the guesthouse. Count your blessings, name them one by one....

Hmmm. We trade our personal wishes and wants for what can contribute to the good of the family and that is called LOVE and sacrifice!!! I think it is great that you are willing to do it for a dime and a nickel. I guess that means you won't be able to come and stay for a month if dad goes to CA for treatments! And way to count your blessings! That never fails to work for me!
ha! if i didnt know any better, i would say youre an ative member of the church! haha. oh ya and come stay with me for 6 weeks while mom and dad are gone
awwwwwwww...good old State Farm. I remember when you sold me on them..and even when you hooked me up on Progressive! hahaha Martie is still with State Farm. I'm sure you'll manage it somehow. ;)
