Update Up to Today's Date: October 6, 2006

Well, this week has CERTainly been the MOST stressful, yet. I know that were it not for friends and family (especially Katlyn and my mommy) praying for me back home and all of my close friends up here (Kelly McDermott, Carolyn Candland, Rachel Smith, Laura Puckett, Lindsey Wolfe, Jon Weirich, Andrew Salmon & Ben Campbell) as well as a visit from the Brighams and a possible visit with Morgan from Vero Beach, I DEFINITELY would've floundered this week! [How's that for a run-on sentence?! Forget it -- I'm pretty much tired of editing my work. Sorry to disappoint ya. ;-p ]
