Well, we got a mega virus on our home computer, so I am writing this from work. Not a whole lot going on here... Jim is now working as a Bailiff at the courthouse now. He really loves it. The first question that everyone asks is "does he get to carry a pistol?" The answer to all who are still curious it YES, he does! And he carries handcuffs, pepper spray and all that cool stuff that guys like. By the way... he really looks hot too. Anyways, that is the only new haps around here. All else is good, kids are outta school and loving the freedom of being hoodlums at home. Hopefully our computer is up and running again soon at home, but for now, this is all I got. Sorry no new pics.

I just wanted to share this, since it was on my mind...
"I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future". Jer 29:11
Sometimes I feel like a leaf tossing in the wind, with no rhyme or reason, no goal or purpose... but then I have to remember these words that resound in my head. The words of the Lord of the universe. He who created such intricate details from proto-plasm to gravity and planets and stars, yet He still says that we are His greatest creation. Sometimes people feel so unimportant, and useless. Sadly enough, it is the hurtful words and actions of other people who install this sense of unimportance in others. If everyone would just smile 10% more of the time, and if we could all just rearrange the words in our vocabulary from "I" and "me" to "please" and "thank you", and start thinking of others before ourselves just as the Lord commands, this corrupt world we live in would be a lot more joyful of a place to be.
Mark 12:30-31 says, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these."
Well, just food for thought... ~Chryss
