Sooooo, ya like the new blog??? I do. Been very partial to the color blue lately. And admit it... this angel is way too cute! Well, I have been feeling better, but the money thing is still really tough. The hardest part is not being able to do things for the kids (all of them) that they SHOULD have done for them. Not being able to spoil them really sucks.

I find myself escaping more and more often into my little internet world here. Life has become kind of lonely and the people I chat with on line and play web games with help. My kids are great, but it is nice to talk to people my own age.

I signed up for the IL DOT Motorcycle Riders Course. It is free and I will be able to "legally" drive a motorcycle when it is over. That will be cool. It's about time I did a little something for me.

My dad is not doing well. I don't think it will be long for him. I really miss him. All of you should cherish the people in your life that you love. They are taken away much too quickly. My father has been on this earth for 93 years. I still did not get enough time with him. Life is fragile and short. Don't forget to tell the people that you love what a difference they have made in your life.
