change.

Yesterday was the first day of this sore throat/stopped up nose ordeal and today it is even worse. I didn't sleep well last night - needless to say (being sick over this and some other stuff). Please pray for me & my family. We are getting ready to go through some changes in our lives. With that - I will leave you with some quotes that get me to thinking.
