This is completely outrageous! Do this quick.

BLOCK YOUR DRIVER'S LICENSE

This is upsetting, thought I should pass it along. Check your Drivers license... Now you can see anyone's Driver's License on the Internet, including your own! This is typical of the Federal Government. Remove yours now! Even shows your SSN! I just searched for mine and there it was...picture and all. Thanks Homeland Security, where is our right to privacy? I definitely removed mine; I suggest you all do the same. Go to the web site and check it out. Just enter your name, City and State to see if yours is on file. After your license comes on the screen, click the box marked "Please Remove". This will remove it from public viewing, but not from law enforcement.

P.S. even if you dont have one do this b/c it still has info on you

A Talk with Nanny

I was wanting to stay in Fort Smith over night because I had a late night class and then had an early morning class the next morning. There was NO sense in driving all the way home then turn around and come back at 8 o'clock in the morning. I usually ask the Jacksons if I can stay at their house, but Aaron and Jill were home so the spare bedroom was occupied. Also they were planning on having someone over from church for the night, so then my next option(the couch) was occupied as well.

So what is a girl to do...I had decided to just go ahead and drive back home, then Sis Lisa J. offered her grandma (nanny's) house as a substitute. Nanny said that she would be thrilled to have me, so I agreed. After arriving at her house...she showed me around and got me all the things that I might need and told me to make myself at home. We said goodnight and all was well for the rest of the night.

In the early morning hours, I awoke and took a shower and all that hygiene stuff...walked to the kitchen to get a drink and Nanny was awake, making some coffee. We sat at the kitchen bar and she told me of some stories from her younger days growing up and how everything has changed soooo much. I thought you would enjoy this story...

She was a young girl, about 13 yrs old, and she had heard of Trick-r-Treating @ Halloween, but where she lived nobody ever did it. She convinced her sister in law(who was many yrs older than herself) to take her around to the neighbors to Trick-r-Treat. They were all dressed up in there masks and halloween clothes and they ventured to the first neighbor's house...they opened the door...this was unusual and they didn't know what was going on. They threatened to shoot them if they didn't leave. Now talk about a Halloween Scare!

New House in Progress

We have been remoldeling the house and BOY...is it a mess right now. The house was torn completely apart and is just now (after two weeks) beginning to look normal again. I will add some pictures to this post as soon as I can, so you can see the improvements.

Day off!

Today has been a very relaxing day. I didn't have to work and I just have one class. Therefore I have spent most of my day doing...nothing! I probably should have my nose in my books and be studying on my day off, but instead I decided to create a blog.

OK...~I did study a little! Like this much___. But I should have studied this much________.
