Too bad I didn't find this picture before April 1st. :)

Would I have got you, Connie? If I got rid of that worth1000.com (fun web site!) and made it look like an "Obama has gone too far this time trying to be cool/popular" newspaper article. Probably not even then as you know to be on the lookout. :D

Pretty cool, huh? :) I can't believe I can read that jibberish.

Our smoke alarm went off in the middle of the night. It was a false alarm. But afterwards I kept having nightmares about our house being on fire or us dying from carbon monoxide. In the morning I felt like a steamroller had run over me, I was so tired from the poor sleep.

I couldn't help but think what if our house really had been on fire. Are we prepared for an emergency? Well, I'm ashamed to admit that even though our church has taught about preparedness FOREVER now, our 72 hour emergency kit is only half done. If I don't get it finished in the next little while, I'm a rotten egg!

ps. A new poll on the right. My favorite season is fall. Early fall. When days are still warm and sunny (but not too hot), trees are gorgeous (love, love, love the fall colors!), no more bugs (yeah baby!)... On a day like that, I just want to stop time. It doesn't rain much here in Alberta so I even love the rainy days.
