One Trillion Dollars
Notice the pallets are double stacked.
Can you see the little man with the red shirt standing in the corner?
No?
Apparently neither can Congress.
.
ONE TRILLION DOLLARS is a whole lotta money.
Money that our country doesn't have.
Lets hope and pray together that good comes from this. That our nation can heal and rebuild itself. That one day we can pay off our debts and truly be free.
In the mean time, lets at least be realistic and honest with ourselves and each other.
We need each other, and we need God more now than we ever have.

Shout out to Joe
Several things have been causing me stress over the last few weeks.
(Many of you have offered prayers for our family, and I want to tell you they have been felt and answered. Our family has made more positive progress over the last few weeks than I thought was possible. It is always a work in progress, but for those of you who asked, please know that things are going well and we appreciate your prayers.)
There was one night that I was feeling an exceptional amount of stress. I went to my bedroom, pushed the power button on my TV, and when it failed to turn on, every emotional bulwark I had in place crumbled, fracturing the spine of the metaphoric hump backed mammal, and ultimately, (sparing the messier details), leaving me in a teary mess on the bathroom floor.
The next morning I googled TV repair in Virginia Beach and found the name of Joe Searles.
I called Joe Searles TV Repair and set up an appointment for him to come out to the house and check out the problem.
He showed up right on time, and although we wasn't able to fix the problem here, he was friendly, professional, and polite, and even helped us load the TV into our van to take it to his shop.
After working on my poor TV in his shop Joe found that 2 circuits on the circuit board were not providing the power needed to turn the set on. And instead of replacing the entire circuit board at a cost of several hundred dollars, Joe simply replaced the 2 faulty circuits.
When I picked it up, he and his associate loaded it into my car for me.
Joe was up front about all of his fees and surprised me by not sneaking any extra fees in, the way any car repair shop might have.
In the end, the total repair costs were much less than I had feared, and only a fraction of what it would have cost to replace my whole TV.
So if you happen live in or around Virginia Beach and find yourself needing any TV repairs, (or an Elvis impersonator - Joe is multi-talented), give Joe a call.

I couldn't have been more pleased with his service.

Thanks Joe!
