Tyler: Mommy, you are making me sad.

NYC...and then a furlough

Molly was great at taking these "us" pics Well, I have to say this weekend was fun filled and my bubble was burst a tad this morning.  In the grand scheme of things, personally I'm incredibly blessed each and every day, furlough or no furlough.  At this current hour of 10pm, we don't have a resolve or Continued Resolution Authority (CRA) to fund our government employees.  I'm worried about employees with a sole income.  I'm worried about the single parents.  I'm worried about all the "missed" items in the event of a furlough.

I'm hoping the saying is still taught in today's educational system (fingers and toes crossed).

February...month of <3

What an amazing, beautiful & fast pace world we live in. I'm not sure how the month of January zoomed by, but February has arrived without notice (ok, other than the calendar).  Today was a sunny day spent watchingTyler's first   basketball game, a trip to Oxon Hill National Park, a quick 5 mile run, homework & move night. Along the way, I ran into an old friend who is a Wounded Warrior looking for help transitioning into the civilian workforce. It's sooo refreshing to chat with an old friend like no time has passed. Sharing trials & tribulations face-to-face really makes problems manageable.  Bring on the month of love for great friends, family, & all those who support us all!
