Well hello everyone. I hope that you are all well.
Today marks my sixth day in the hospital for a headache I started having on Thursday morning while at work.
Each day that I have been here my headache has stayed almost the same. Tonight just before Tina got here and just after the nurse had given me my pain meds, I got such an incredible headache that I thought I was going to end up back in the ER.
When I first arrived to the hospital, we really did not know what to expect. What I did not at all expect was a spinal tap test that pointed to meinigitis and three days, so far, in isolation.
Well, I will try update everyone as we see this challenge through,
Kurt

Kittens Live!
Hello!
Several days ago God blessed us with some kittens. They are very fun to watch, but not so fun to clean up after! :)
I made this short video in memory of Tina's cat and friend Puff. Puff went to wait for Tina at the Rainbow Bridge on Saturday November 22, 2008. Puff was almost 19 years old and it was time for her to go be with God. Puff was a very good friend and a better alarm clock to Tina for many years. Puff would wake us up almost every morning between 330 and 4am so that we would have time to get to work...oh, and time to feed her! :)
Below is a short video that I made of the new life that God has brought into our home! It is just a short funny clip of the new kittens that allow us to stay with them!
We hope that this brings you as much joy as these little ones bring to our lives!
May God bless you and may His grace be with you all!

Hello!
Good Evening folks!
Sorry that it has been 2 months since I have posted, but Tina and I have gone through some very hard challenges and issues. We both have now stopped drinking and Tina has gone through some amazing growth in her personal life. She truly is not the same person she was just a few months ago.
If I had not been promoted in April, I would be the next in line to be laid off at Harrah's Security! Times are VERY challenging for the Casino industry, and in the last 3 months we have cut over 20 security positions.
As of midnight tonight (1200am on Friday) we went to a 10 hour shift. I now work 4 10 hour shifts and have 3 days off. Since I was #9 out of 10 Supervisors, I got the Midnight to 10am shift with Sunday, Monday and Tuesday off. So I get off work at 10am tomorrow (Saturday) and do not have to be back to work until 1201 on Wednesday.
I built a frame to go over the window in the bedroom to keep the light out, and for the most part it works good. I just need to find a way to secure the bottom to the wall to keep the light out. I have 2 picture brakets on top holding the fram on top and weather stripping around the sides to keep the light out. One of the requirements I had was that it would be easy to take off and put back up for my days off. And except for holding it close to the wll at the bottom I have met all my goals for this project. It is light enough that Tina can take it off, but she is not tall enough to put it back up. If anyone has a suggestion, please let me know. Right now I have the cat tower leaning against it and stuffed with unused Tina clothes to help push it into the wall.
I have been in the Amway business since 1991, and have personally seem many people become VERY successful with this business. Over the last several months, I have felt God calling my heart to head this way again, so once I get caught up on my homework and adjusted to my new work schedule, I will be really working my Amway / Quixtar business. Since the products I sell are of a far better quality and cost less per each use (Amway products are concentrated) than the name brands I do not think that building a good base of customers will be too hard. And in today's economic climate, finding people who want to secure their families financial foundation should be even eaiser. If anyone is intrested to see the products that Amway sells (folks it ain't the same Amway you think you know!) go to www.quixtar.com, and if you see something let us know. Ordering on-line is very easy and the cost to become a customer is free. But you do have to sign up through me so that you are linked to my business. I do have a standing special and that is, your first order is at my cost (wholesale. This order would need to be placed through me so that I can adjustthe cost to you!).
The reason that I have not done much with the Amway business before was that there was never a pressing need for me too. But now with all the bills piling up and the risk of loosing my job everyday, I have found the motovation and drive I need to get out of the 'job' world.
Well time to start getting ready for work. It is not only a Friday night, but it is also MY Friday night!
Good night all

Ramblings for today
Hello everyone!
Guess what?
Tina made the Dean's List at school!
I forgot to mention this in the video, but wanted to make sure that EVERYONE who sees this blog knows how great of student Tina really is! Tina has just over a 3.5 GPA. I only have a 3.25 GPA right now. I am very proud of Tina and all her hard work to get this. She did not know that there was such a thing until she got the letter in the mail!
Great Job Tina!

God's Love for All People
Hello and Welcome back to my Blog! Sorry I did not write last week, but we have been very busy with Tina's mom and son in town. It was a good visit, and I am sure that every one is glad to be back home! :)
With my new class, we are writing a paper that should turn out to be about 10 pages. The first weeks theme was God's love for All People, and that is what I talk about in my video. I did this at night, and was tired so I am not sure if I am just rambling or if I makes sense.
Well, With God's Blessings and My Love,
See you next week!

New Class, New Begining
Hello Again Everyone,
Well here it is, almost two weeks late. My latest installment of my video blog. I never knew how much people actually watched my videos, but I have received some feedback from friends and family about not posting.
Bev is home, and last I heard, doing well. Tina’s mom and son are in town and are driving Tina a little crazy! We have 4 people in a small apartment and Tina thinks that we all must be doing something all the time. Well her mom is right, sitting down and relaxing for a day or two is good too!
I have done some changing in our ‘office’ area and have added shelves and lights to make things more convenient for us and easier to actually sit down and do our school work. Classes start tomorrow after our 4th of July break. I am excited to get going again.
Well, with God’s Blessings and My love to you,
Kurt
