Slow going

Well, just an update on our adoption process. SLOW!!! We are still researching though. And trying to find the money to do this. Wow. It's so crazy. I feel like I'm a wheel up on a jack... spinning and going nowhere! It's driving me crazy! But, we want to be sure we go with the right agency for us. We don't want to get burned by one that doesn't fit our wants and needs. So, I'm still researching. I'm getting ready to call a few of them next week. I have a list of questions ready to ask them. That's about it.

I took a few more pictures.. messing around and I think I will share them with ya'll. I got my film developed.. but.. they didn't tell me they don't print black and white, they just develope the film. How crazy is that. UGH. So now I have to find a place to print them. Geezle petes. Well, here are a few more that I was messing around with taking. Have a wonderful weekend everyone. And if I don't write anything before Thanksgiving, have a Happy Thanksgiving!!

Update on my friend

My friend Narong, who was in the accident, passed away today. Jeff just called me and said he had just talked to the officer that has been with the family. He was with a family member and said most of them had gone home. Jeff did not want the other officer to have to say he passed away in front of the family so he asked if he was 10-7 which means out of service. He said yes, 10-7. That's so sad. He was such a great guy! He would do anything for anyone!! He was one of those people that everyone loved. I've known him for so long. Gosh, it was almost 30 years. That's a long time to know someone. We take life for granted. It's so short. I know Narong will be truely missed! Keep his family in your prayers.

Prayers needed very much!!!!

I am asking for prayer for a friend of mine. He was in a HORRIBLE accident today. He was on his motorcycle and someone ran a red light and hit him. It's not good. He has LOTS of injuries. He wasn't wearing a helmet (grrrr). They have done brain surgery to relieve the swelling. They had to take one of his legs because there was no bone practically left in it. He is now in surgery (it started at 11:30pm) to try to stop the abdominal bleeding. It doesn't look good. They are afraid they will lose him when the open him up. Jeff was VERY glad he was not on shift today when that call came out.

I have been friends with him since the 3rd grade. I'm now 35 so that's a very long time. His family came to the US from Laos. My parents gave him his first birthday party (suprise party no less) ever! He is very well liked in our community. Please pray for him!!!! Please pray that God will put His healing hand on him. That the doctors will know exactly what to do. Please pray for his family!! I can't imagine what they are going through. He built his parents a home (the one he wanted to build for himself). He stopped by my parents house a week ago and told my dad that he was almost done paying off the house and he was going to buy his parents a car. He's very selfless! He's such a great guy!! Please keep him and his family in your prayers!!! Thank you all so very much!

Fall

I love this time of year. It's so pretty. And I like that it's not so stinkin' hot. I love to take pictures. We have this great walking trail in our neighborhood and it's so pretty right now. So, I took my cameras with me and took some pics. These are just a few. I took lots of film pics (I know.. very old fashioned) but I don't have them developed. I love to take film. Epecially with the great cameras that I have. I thought I would share a few of the pics with you all.

Not much else going on around here. Just researching adoption agencies and everything about adoption. Keep us in your prayers that we will choose the right one for us. Have a good one!!!
