I give....

I like to dance, love it in fact. I am one to always be dancing around the kitchen. I enjoy going to our local winery, Harmony Hill Vineyards and get my groove on. However I am exhausted at the dance of life at times. I feel my flow is more like some sort of dance in which I take one step forward and two steps back. In the nearly month since I've updated I found myself in fact being offered that job that I interviewed for. What a blessing! Our fantastic family mobile, Ruby came home. School started with a smooth run out the starting gate for our children and it seemed that things were moving in a happy direction. I must have forgotten to knock on wood.

I was on my way to my mother in laws after some shopping on my day off. As I approached her drive way I realized I had the brake to the floor and I was not slowing down like I should, and there was some smoke coming from the front passenger side tire. While I would love nothing more than to see that van burst into flames I didn't want to go into the creek in the process. We soon discovered that the brake line had ruptured and the pads were into the rotors. We also soon discovered that this brake line is yet another part that is only available through Dodge and it will need to come from a dealer. Cha ching! Oh... And it's a holiday weekend so we will have to wait.

I find myself trying to as positive as I can, to see the rainbow after the thunderstorm, to see the glass as half full, to blah blah blah. We will move on like we always do, and I say that the thunderstorm washed my cars and plants, and half full means there is room for rum in my glass.
