What's Going On?

I woke this morning before the alarm went off somewhat disoriented from a BAD DREAM. Android like paratroopers were descending from the sky amongst all unholy chaos around me. I was within a large group of people, none of which I was related or familiar with, at some sort of Museum like structure in a downtown like area. It was the end of the world. We scrambled to get AWAY only to find a wounded soldier. I tried to carry him whilst a WILD LION attacked us from below.

Then I woke up.
I've been watching too many doomsday movies...i.e. I Am Legend.


I've also been watching Glenn Beck...He had an End of the World Expert on the other day - SCARY STUFF!

The economy seems to be heading down the toilet and I don't think that sending out a so-called "Economic Stimulus" checks will do much to fix it. Gas prices are Sky High and everything else is undoubtedly going to go right up with it. Our Government isn't going to do anything to help...they only get involved with stupid things like mandating Ethanol being added to Gasoline and muck things up worse! Did you know that it uses more energy and costs more money to produce Ethanol and it is helping to create worldwide food shortages?

Read about it here

I can only wonder where the bad dreams are coming from...hmmm.....I wonder. I worry about the safety and well being of my family. We've been stockpiling food (on the cheap) - crazy like 12 boxes of cereal stashed in my son's closet and thinking of where I can store more, more, more. I buy, buy, buy when I can get it for near nothing and use coupons, coupons, coupons! I'm going to stop watching those scary movies but I'll keep watching Glenn Beck...I love that guy! I'll keep trying to make good things come from bad situations that I don't have a whole lot of control of and let go of the feelings of inadequacy that tend to loom. I know that Heavenly Father has a great plan for each of us if we live in such a way to make it so.

I am confident in my Faith I know that we are richly blessed to know His truths. My family is striving to be prepared...but I worry can we really be prepared enough? It's just a lot to think about....
