Simplifying Life Part 1

Like I mentioned before we don't have TV. We just have highspeed internet. We just want to be simple. But lately I have become addicted to watch TV shows on CBS, ABC and NBC. Many of there popular shows are online. It has become very addicting and much easier than regular television watching.

We cancelled our Netflix account. And today I looked at a Service called Vongo (a starz service). I read many reviews. Here is an excerpt of one that I read...

This review is from Sharkjumping.com After almost a month with Vongo, Starz' new online movie service, I'm canceling it rather than extend the subscription. The strengths and weaknesses I detailed 3 weeks ago are still there after a lot of use, but what really stands out is a surprising lack of quality in the video delivery. The graininess is most evident when output to a TV, but even on my laptop, the quality is noticeably weak, probably close to a VHS or worse. It's not a deal killer by itself, but I now notice it every time I use the product. It doesn't heve to be HD quality, but I'm not sure that this level is sufficient by today's standards, even it accelerates the download process a bit and takes up less room on the hard drive.

If you read that article further you will see that it is not really what we are looking for.

There is also peritoneal mesothelioma. Mesothelioma symptoms are pretty rough. She was saying that many people call it the Asbestos Cancer. Who knows??

Katrina Relief Day One

Today was our first full day in Biloxi to help provide relief and recovery.  Honestly, when we came down here we thought that a lot more progress would have been made.  But as you can see from the pictures on http://www.degomi.com. There are still homes in devastation. 

We are hearing that it CLEAN compared to how it looked a few months ago,  but folks are still living in cars and tents.  A lot of families are lucky to be living in a FEMA trailers but most are not.

The major dilemma that most families are facing is they no longer have a home but still have a mortgage and their insurance covers wind damage but not water.  Their disaster relief money has already run out.  Not sure what to do to help them.

BUT, today I did hear of some needs in this area.

1) More work teams.  We are working with a ministry called Hands and Feet and they need more work teams.
2) At least 1 Double Wide Trailer for the free clinic here in the outskirts of Biloxi.
3) Prayer for the emotional and mental distress associated with losing everything but the clothes on their back.  Help getting through the grief process.  This is a job that only God can tackle. 

 We are sure as the days go by we will hear of more needs but for now this is

God Bless,

Real Estate Finally

Wow! I have been very busy. But now I am up and running. I have been doing real estate for two weeks now. And so far I really enjoy the freedoms of being an agent. I enjoy the people. Naomi has started her first day today at work. She had to go to calhoun for an orientation training. So I hope that goes well for her today. I am really excited about the next couple of months. Emma is starting her first full week at the new Daycare today. The biggest struggle so far about the new daycare is that feed here a lot of junk. Which emma eats better than we do. We both had to fight off a little stomach flu this weekend. Well my desire is to keep this more updated will see...
