A light of Hope...

My son (2 years & 6 months old) has been in Arizona with his mom for the past three weeks visiting his Nanna, Aunt Missy, "Uncle Cherry" and her "brother Kay."  Not sure why he calls the two sisters by a masculine identity, but it has kind of stuck.  I miss him terribly.  We have been able to Skype almost nightly and otherwise talk on the phone wishing each other "night-night" and sweet dreams.  He called me back last night crying wanting me to sing to him.  My heart broke after we got off the phone that I couldn't hold him in his need.  I'll see him in about a weeks time.  I can't wait!

On anther note:

 A while back, my little p.o.s. '91 Toyota Corolla busted a head gasket and it was going to cost more to fix it than it was worth, so I sold it.   I was offered the use of a high performance running van from a friend of mine.  It was fricken awesome aside from the insane weekly gas bill of about $130; however this van had been sitting for three years and was not exactly all up to par and ready for the road, though he thought it was--it broke under my care.  I felt horrible about it but it was something out of my control as far as I am aware.  Since that time, I have purchased a clean, black, 2004 Nissan Pathfinder.  I couldn't be happier.  It's very nice.  I get to cut back on gas expenses and my monthly payments are under $150.  Not bad.  This has allowed some hope coming in from a more reliable vehicle.  AND I have begun to develop the concept of a new business and, after hearing my story, was approached by a business lawyer willing to help me at no cost just for the sake of seeing me succeed!  WOW!  How cool is that?  He has provided me a host of tools and experience that will guide me for the next few months getting a few things together and developing my ideas further for this success to come to fruition.  Imagine, me, a business owner!  That's a far cry from where I started.  All's I have to do now is stay focused.  I've already got the "cut above the rest" when it comes to the niche that puts me ahead of my competitors.  But we're not talking about that right now.  Haha. 

I hope all your summers are going well. Feel free to leave comments or notes letting me know you're reading this.  =)
