Thanks

Thank you all for your kind comments, phone calls, listening ears, and prayers. This has been hard for me, and your support has been SO appreciated.

It seems like every day I hear of another family that's struggling - several are losing homes they can no longer afford because work has slowed, and several where the husband/father was recently laid off and is scrambling to make ends meet. I have one friend who's graduating from a top law school this spring with no job prospects (out of ~300 new graduates, only 40 have jobs lined up) and tens of thousands of $ of school debt to pay off.

So, I guess what I want to say is I'm sorry for complaining. Times are tough for a lot of people, and truthfully we still have so much to be thankful for.

I'm counting my blessings these days, and one thing near the top of the list? . . .

good friends.

Right on!! Thank goodness for good friends. We've been stressing a lot lately, too, but I've fallen in love with one thing that President Monson said at Conference: "the future is as bright as your faith." I've been thinking about that a lot lately, and I've realized (for the millionth time) that faith will get us through anything. Yay for that too. :-)
