Ramblings and Whatnot

This was a busy week. Work was crazy but that's normal.  I took my mom for her second cataract surgery on Wed.  My oldest started football spring training and my youngest, soccer.
Watching the world only made me pray harder and further my resolve to prep and teach my family to survive. With North Korea threatening to end the cease-fire with South Korea and launch pre-emptive nuclear missiles at the U.S., our government being virtually incapable of making a smart decision, and it taking a 13 hour filibuster from Sen. Rand Paul to get an answer from the Atty. General on whether or not the President would/could launch drone strikes at non-militant citizens on U.S. soil, tells me things are not the best.
 
The weekend was a little calmer.  I got some work done in the yard at my house and my mom's.  Yesterday afternoon, I took all three kids fishing.  The eldest was the only one to have any luck, and he only caught one little bream.  Then again, when the wind is blowing between 10 and 20 mph, you're not gonna catch much.  They had fun, though, and that's what matters.
 
Last night was week #2 of The Bible on the History Channel.  I'm still enjoying this, and am thankful for folks like Mark Burnett and Roma Downey, who will heed God's call to spread the Gospel.  God bless them!
 
Well, back to work.  God bless!

I'm not dead!

I'm still alive, though if you're still checking my blog, you might have wondered if the contrary was the case.  Life has been crazy, and kept me away from the blog, much of any crafting of things, etc.  It's been pretty much nothing but work, home, kids, and helping my mom.  Fortunately, I think things might be settling a little, so I hope to be back.

My mom has her second cataract surgery coming up on Wednesday, and I'll be with her.  I plan to take my leather stuff with me to work on once I get her back home.  If so, I'll do my best to take pictures and get back to the possibles bag tutorial.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
