Blogging Again

It's been a year since I added any posts. Life has a way of getting in the way. My two oldest have joined the Army, so far I am blessed that neither one has seen any action yet. I've gotten a new job that I actually like. My youngest son has a form of high functioning autism. We all stay busy with him.
After a year of no posts I still find contact requests in my email every week, so I have decided to start posting again. Not as frequently as I did in the past. Got to love those offbeat news stories.
