I just had two cups! Love it!

I can relate, relative to the guys' perspective. After my divorce, I had to travel to earn enough cash to pay support, and still survive. The emotional turmoil of the breakup and upheaveal left me completely alone, and extremely lonely. I reached out to a church and learned that there were some lovely single women in there, only later to discover that in no way was I ready for a relationship. And they, even less so. Many, many nights I would come home from work to turn on the TV just for the noise. Sometimes I would insist on getting out to dine by myself. Haha! That's a trip which I do not miss. Occassionally, I'd see another forlorn soul sitting alone reading a book; probably hiding from the eyes of others. And I would think, gee, it would be so nice to dine with that person and have a pleasant conversation. In the end though, I always went home to the noise of the TV, more lonely than ever. Paul expressed, it is not good for man to be alone. And I know exactly what he meant. It leads us down paths where we should not venture. Women are probably not as prone to those kinds of distractions, I would guess. Eventually I met and married again, and we are miles from family still. But at least we have each other to rely on for sweet company. I don't want to ever be single again, unless the Lord should call her home. Who knows what lies in store then... I racked up quite a few single years; and sometimes, not gracefully.

Our church is our local fortress where we worship the Creator with other Christians. We do not cater just to the saints, but the sinners as well. They welcomed us with open arms and we immediately felt right at home. We support missionaries all over the world, particularly in Russia, where we are deperately needed! I feel the Lord's presence every day we are there! check it out here cbcomaha.org We have an awesome body of believers to worship with! Much thanks to our pastor too!

Rush Limbaugh is the king of talk radio, and I enjoy his show the most. Have been a daily listener for many years now. I like Glen Beck and feel he has a humorous and enjoyable show and would go so far as to label him my second favorite. But when he tries to talk about Christianity, I question his beliefs. To me, he seems like he still adheres to liberal views, regardless of how often he says he is a conservative/Christian. With Rush, you get the real deal. I just don't get a warm fuzzy from Glen.

We all may end up riding horses to work.

We've stopped eating out at restuarants. And have decided not to take any vacation trips this year. It costs us about 140 dollars just to fill up our two vehicles. I think the economy will eventually feel the effects of this madness. We live on a fairly busy street, but have not noticed that people are driving any less yet. It will have to affect some peoples driving habits at some point. How do teens afford gasoline at these prices? They drive by our house day and night!
