Turning Point – The First Day

There is no better way to introduce it or say it than to just do it: The Fab Hub has a brand new job!!! Woo hoo! Hooray! And thank the Lord! It’s exactly what he needs to make this break into the world of IT. It’s the door we have been hoping would open. I…

When Life Gets in the Way – A Preamble

Two years ago, my Husband and I halfheartedly talked about considering a new start. Perhaps one or both of us were ready to think about looking for something new, something that would allow us to stretch and to grow. We very tentatively started to broach the subject of what we might like to do, where we would look, and what…
