Scared
I'm scared, and I wanted to admit it. I am about to create a budget/financial plan for my family. I am using Dave Ramsey's "Total Money Makeover" to assist me, although I have not read very far into the book yet. We have two new bills starting and they aren't just chunk change. We have Noah's preschool tuition and Curt's college tuition plus our rent DOUBLED at the beginning of the month. I am an avid reader but I cannot read this book fast enough so I am skipping to the end and doing the charts first and I will continue to read the book as I have time. What am I really afraid of? Well, that's a loaded question. I'm afraid that with the rent thing and these new bills we won't be able to make it financially let alone actually work on getting out of debt. I'm afraid of what the numbers will tell me. Because numbers don't lie, do they? Yikes! Its high time we got rid of our financial flabbiness. We're probably more than flabby financially, actually. We're probably financially obese. Ok. I'm going to stop procrastinating and plug those numbers into the chart!

More pics coming soon....
I have yet to decide what my mode of showing pics is going to be. I would like to incorporate the roadrunner photoshow(s) somewhere into my blog so that all you have to do is choose a photoshow and you could view them. If anyone knows how to do this, please email me at: www.seeker4christ@gmail.com.
Time??
The posting time on this thing is off... I posted at 11:58AM and its showing 8:58AM for some reason...so dont rely on the time to tell you the actual time I was thinking this. I tried to change the time, but it didnt let me. Hmmmm...
All things made new
Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the desert and streams in the wasteland. Isaiah 43:18 & 19. This is what I am feeling the Lord telling me about my new blog. I am ready to blog again after quite a hiatus! The scars from blogging past still remain, but I can look back on them and be thankful for my growth in Christ. I am turning over a new leaf upon which I will blog about random things but hopefully it will mostly be about christ's work in my life, my family, and some funny things as well.
