The NIGH****CHMAN - Tuesday 9/15
Pretty nice day outside. There is this yellow thing in the sky though.
Losing a little optimism about my Rangers after last night, but tonight Michael Young comes back from his injury, so maybe it will provide a boost.
Just so you know folks, you need to TAKE YOUR VITAMINS.
If you are new to the board, this link explains what the NIGHT WATCHMAN is (if you are interested). Otherwise, just read on, you will probably figure it out anyway.

Elizabeth's pain is over but the real, deep pain has yet to begin - especially for Michelle.
Below is one of God's children that definitely need our prayers. This is one specific cases, we know there are others out there. Remember them too.
Gina J. - Pray for her 6 year old Marina, diagnosed with a terminal illness at age 2. She has improved, but still needs our prayers. Pray for this brave little girl
GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!
Today has been a STRANGE DAY!!! During the middle of the day (and it spread like wild fire throughout work) we found out that one of our co-workers was in a fatal accident on the way to work this morning. She was ejected from her wheelchair that was in the van (the wheelchair was not ejected). She was 41, a passenger... who normally drove herself to work. Her mother (we believe it was her mother that was driving) is in the hospital (last we heard ICU). This happened about 615 this morning near 820 & 287 in Saginaw. Renee was confined to a wheelchair (after a leg amputation years ago).
Please keep her family and co-workers in your prayers as we all mourn the loss of a wonderful lady.
I'm going back to my corner to think....

My inability to shake this funk is really taking a toll on me. We'll be in Dallas this weekend and I hate that we're coming up and I don't have any interviews scheduled. I'm so tired of this holding pattern.
I'm getting scared about finances. It sucks watching your savings dwindle away. My mom keeps reminding me this is why we have savings, but I don't like making withdrawls. Ever.
I think I'm going to try to go to bed early tonight. Maybe I'll have happy dreams instead of thinking about my current reality. Prayers for all who need them.

If I were lying, wouldn't my pants be on fire?!?
Happy dreams.
GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!
