Practically imperfect in every way. Start with a lot of silliness. Mix in some insecurities and a handful of awkwardness. Add a pound of naivety, innocence, and child-like wonderings. Blend well. Half-bake and top off with a sprinkle of imagination and dollop of dreams. It’s the recipe for me!

"I think we have come to find out that the Education system, run by Liberal Hippies that really couldn't find any other job that allowed them so much time off, the ability to do drugs, and to spout their rhetoric is alive and well. It is teaching out kids things like 'Abortion is Good,' 'Government is Bad.' We have educators that, for the most part, don't teach to the subject, they teach to their beliefs. It is really sad, and even sadder when you see highly intelligent children buying into it." --Kelli

Rob was supposed to have a second phone interview today for a job in Misery Missouri, but it’s been rescheduled for Thursday. When his employer made their announcements earlier this year, it felt like we had a lot of time until the changes would affect us. Now here we are with September right around the corner, and December not far off. I’m starting to worry a little bit. Many of the people we met in Florida this past weekend are in the same industry as Rob, so we’re hopeful that he can find work through them, if not through his current employer.
I get the feeling that Rob would enjoy having a month or two between jobs. He’s mentioned visiting his family in Florida again during Christmas this year if he’s jobless. I’m afraid to make flight arrangements for such a trip though, in case we’re not even living here by Christmas. And thinking about living elsewhere before the end of the year? It’s a little freaky. The reality is we probably won’t be able to sell our home before the end of the year, so the boys and I will probably stay here for a while. At least, that’s my plan. But it sure would ease my mind a bit to know Rob’s employer’s plan.
It’s the spark of an idea that hits me unexpectedly. It’s the silly wonderings I have after a whirlwind of thoughts. It’s about creativity, inspiration, and imagination. But sometimes, it’s just about eating noodles.
