Happy Access Day!

Today was proclaimed Access Day in Fargo Moorhead on behalf of the company I work for. We are in the process of building new housing for people with disabilities. This project will provide homes for nine teenagers with disabilities who otherwise would wind up in group home. We had ground breaking today, and in 100 days we will be cutting the ribbon and clients will be moving in. It is quite the project and I am very excited!

The Faith of a Child

Today I took a lesson in faith from my 8 year old cousin Nicole. Her mom is in the advanced stages of cancer. While the rest of us try to make sense of everything, Nicole has it figured out. Her words: "Jesus will take care of my mom." She doesn't question...she just knows.

Happy 4th of July!

Nothing beats a day filled with family, fireworks, and duck bar jokes! Hope you all have a great day!

Not so sure I like my car...

The Focus almost lost another wheel. After $900 in repairs, I am hoping the wheels are fixed.

Follow up to Clean Up Week....

Well, another fun and exciting week filled with dumpster diving is over! The week was spent driving around Fargo Moorhead looking for decent junk. We found a couple of tables and a few other random things. The best part of clean up week is seeing all of the crazy things people throw out....or maybe the best part is picking up trash from one person's yard and moving it to another person's yard. We found a snowman in one person's yard....and then proceeded to move it our friend's yard. All in all....it was a really random week....but I haven't laughed as much in one week as I did this week in a long time!!!!

Skype

I have recently discovered the joys of using Skype. It allows you to have video conferences with anyone. All it requires is a free download of Skype and a webcam. Check it out at www.skype.com!!

Weekend

My weekend was pretty hectic, but all in all....it was a good weekend. Friday was spend sitting at home. I know....not really an exciting Friday night...but I had an overnight on Thursday and I didn't get any sleep. Saturday was spent with friends from work. There was a fashion show that several of our clients were in. I had a good time. Most of the weekend was spent with my mom's side of the family. My cousin Jim had prom this weekend, so we went to watch Jim and then we all went out to eat. My cousin Nikki also had a birthday party. The highlight of the weekend was riding with Eric on his newly purchased 1985 Honda 3-wheeler. The 3-wheeler burns oil, has no brakes, and broke down several times while we were riding. Good thing he didn't pay much for it! All in all, it was a great weekend! As always, I took a ton of pictures!

Darn car!

The Focus almost lost a wheel while I was driving today. Not cool.

Update....or not.....

So, I just realized that my blog isn't too exciting. I am lacking updates....not that updates on my life are all that exciting. So, time for an update. Life is going quite well. There. I'm spent.
