April showers bring....

It's May already ...... MAY! How is that even possible?

I recently joined in on the Twitter fad, but I honestly don't think it's going anywhere. Facebook really is the "all-encompassing" application for my needs and honestly, why do people really need to be updated on my every move? Plus, I don't get unlimited texts, so the bill could really add up.

I've been staying busy. We're trying to figure out a time when we can get the house painted and we're struggling with whether to have it painted or painting most of it ourselves. A family friend should be able to do the whole house for $1500 and if that's the case it's a done deal. Having the house painted will help its appearance so much. I can hardly stand the wait.

Everyone seems to be losing their jobs these days. The economy is the most talked about media-bit in the last 12 months and increasingly so over the last few months. The unemployment rates have skyrocketed and I'm praying every day that Neil and I are able to both stay employed. Times aren't looking good for publications, the advertising isn't coming in as it used to. Neil's bank is looking healthy though, and my magazine is hanging in there. We can't ask for better than that at this point.

Some things coming up in the future ... Mother's Day, doggy dash to benefit the SSPCA and another walk we're doing before a Journey concert at Raley Field. It's going to be another busy month and before you know it, June will be here.
