I want to dedicate this post to my friend Elizabeth.
On Sunday, September 12 three best friends were involved in a car accident on I40 heading towards Conway. The wreck happened around 1:30 am. Two of the passengers were rushed to a local hospital where they were treated and released for minor injuries. Elizabeth, the third passenger was unconscious at the scene and med flighted to the hospital.
Elizabeth suffered from a bruised lung and was set up on a ventilator to help her breathe. She has been sedated since then from the intubation. She is recovering in Intensive Care. She has had several scans of her brain, all revealing no signs of brain swelling or bleeding. Until Elizabeth can be awake, the full extent of her brain injury (if any) cannot be known.
Elizabeth thankfully has not suffered any other injuries such as broken bones or internal bleeding. At this time doctors are awaiting her lung to heal so that sedation can be lowered and the intubation removed. At that time she can be better assessed.
Elizabeth, you are such a strong beautiful person. Hang in there. We love you so very much!
Pray, Pray, Pray. Thank you.

Frugal...
Hello... I am back. Have you missed me? Life has been crazy busy. Work is taking everything that I have plus some. When I go home, I don't want to be anything but a hermit. Sad I know, but hey, that's life.
As everyone knows, this economy sucks. Watching my family be affected by it makes me really put things in perspective. Life isn't about glitz and glamour. So I have decided to start becoming frugal and try to become debt FREE. This is going to be extremely hard for me because I am not a saver. Never have been. I can't save a dollar if it killed me. I am not good with money, I don't know how to budget money, and I don't know how to spend money (the correct way). So I am going to start putting most of my earnings into a savings. Not a big fan of banks so it won't be a "bank" savings account. I am going to do like my great grandfather did, bury coffee cans of money. Maybe not to that extent but I am going to have a hidy hole or two.
We shall see how it goes.... so friends, if I say no, it isn't because I am being mean, just trying to save money.
