    Well I just wanted to Thank all our Military personnel past and present for their service and keeping us all safe. It is the end of the month, so it is a natural time to evaluate goals and also the halfway thru the year mark.I am still not in that comfortable place but hoping to be there by the end of the year. I have convinced my husband to look for a short sale or some other good deal on a rental in his 403b. He hasn't wanted to do it but I pointed out we were only making 5-600 a month on the ...

    G & I bought new bikes a few weeks ago. Wal.mart was having a special on men's and women's bikes for $69 each with free shipping. I have not seen a bike that inexpensive in a long time. I have been looking to buy a bike for awhile. I've looked online and on Craigs.list and have not found found a better deal. So, we bought the bikes and got them assembled. So far we have taken them for 3 rides. We have done about 4 miles each time. It has been nice to get out and ride around the park and ...

    I have been having a great week. My daughter has done very well, she may even hit the deans list at the local Junior College. My son also got notification to join an Honor Society for being in the top 5% of his graduation class at UCI. It will hopefully help him to get into Med School. I am a very proud parent, that my kids have worked so hard. It is good to see them progressing in their careers. I also was going into Folsom Prison and a baby falcon landed within a few feet of me and my friend in ...

    I went ahead and paid another credit card. It felt really good. I may try and apply for a cc to move some to a lower interest rate as I continue to pay down.

The pictures are about one month old and the one with the parents by the pool is from Southern California. I planted lettuce this morning and I will try and transplant some of the plants that are crowded. I ...
