Perspective

2010 has definitely had it's ups & downs so far. Sebastian & I started out sick, which doesn't sound like the best way to start a new year. David hasn't been working very much because of the cold weather, so our already tight budgets have been s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d. My hard drive that MOST of my pics were on killed over ~ I don't want to even talk about how I am completely at fault I am, on multiple levels, for not having them backed up "correctly".

But the thing that puts all that other stuff into perspective...

I recently found out that a very close friend of mine, my sister's best friend since forever - practically our other sister, was diagnosed with a type of thyroid cancer. She is a super-strong woman, though, and I know that she is fighter. She survived the death of her father way-too-soon, she survived the birth of her 4-year-old triplets born born at 26-weeks and she WILL survive this. Keep her & her beautiful family in your prayers, please!
