Today...is a gift

Today was beautiful. For my LAD #8 (layoff day) I landscaped all day long with my friend, James. He lost his job a while back, so we just had a good laugh about how pathetic we are. Not in a negative way just trying to have a good old fashion belly gafaw! And we did. It was a great day and I am greatful for good friends. Plus I had a few calls today for some potentially awesome job prospects. I am ecstatic to say the least.

I allow myself one moment each day where I am free to to feel a wee bit discouraged. One moment-that is it! No more. But today in that moment, my thoughts suddenly turned to a neighbor of ours that has been fighting cancer for sometime now. She has two sweet boys cheering her on andan amazingly strong husband. She has been quite ill at times and yet still remains an absolute fighter with a huge smile on her face. Though I don't wish to have to go through what she has, I do wish to become more like her. The Winder's love ya Jen! Today is her birthday and a great milestone. So I am calling on all my good friends around the globe to throw a prayer Jen's way if you get a chance. I do believe there is strength in numbers! Thanks

Your friend,
Jaron
