Afternoon y'all. I know I haven't updated in a while and this still won't be one I just really want to write down what I am thinkin.

I turn on the news every day...sometimes 4-5 times, just to see what new has occured and it still never seizes to amaze me that something worse just happened. I lay their in bed at night praying for these people down in the gulf and really all over the affected area and it just brings me to tears. You always know that something like this could happen, but you never know how close it can hit to home.

Last night Ben had to go into work cause he is on 3rd shift. He called me at 10 to tell me goodnight but couldn't talk long cause he was really busy. Then about 3 in the morning he called me to tell me that he was commin home cause there was no gas down in the southern counties so that means that the trucks that deliver for him could not make it to Milliken. I am scared to death cause if this keeps going on this means big time cuts at his job and I am sure everywhere else. He is suppose to go in tonight but not definte if there will be any work. With gas prices going up and work slacking back that means times are going to be tuff. Not only for my family, but I am sure for all of you as well. I keep praying that this will all be taken care of very soon, but of course it is human nature to be scared to death.

I know as of yesterday 95 percent of our gas stations ran out of gas yesterday, luckily some came in last night and there is a limited amount out there right now in our town.

It is sad that it took a natural disaster for people in this country to come together to make a fight for people who lost everything and it is sad that even in this disaster that people are still devilish. I pray for everyone and hopefully y'all will pray or take a moment of silence as well.

I would like to ask each and every one of you that if you could sometime in each day take a moment of silence or pray for the lives that have been lost, for the lives that were affected, and also reflect that people will start changing how they live.

I know most of you may not believe in God, and I am of course not here to make you try, each persom is intitlled to there own beliefs, but this is how I feel and I just wanted to put it out there. I am sure you may disagree or agree with me.

I am going to leave this post with a statement. "God never gives us anything we can't handle, sometimes God's way is not our way and we might not like it, but there is a reason for his actions and I am sure in the end we will see the reason why he allowed this to all happen. Maybe it is to remind us that we need to love, and cherish each and every person."

Thanks for listenin y'all.
Love-ya and please stay safe
Amy
