ITS A RUMOR! CNN Reports......

If you have heard the story on CNN that Rider University is currently under "lock down" due to someone being on campus with a weapon - IT IS NOT TRUE!

The phones are ringing off the hook! NOT funny.

A note from our president.

Dear Rider University Community,

In this difficult time following the Virginia Tech tragedy, misinformation is often quoted and rumors sometimes circulate without substantiation. Such is the case today with false rumors regarding an incident at Rider University.

Please be advised that the rumors and reports that circulated on campus today are false. The Lawrence Police Department and our Office of Public Safety have checked our campus and have deemed it safe and secure. There is no threat to our campus community.

Happy Wednesday!


Good Morning ~

So, I have been lacking in posts. I guess because I've not been feeling well....
AND, a lot has been going on.

I will add to this one... in just a bit. I need to put my head, and my thoughts together. :)

The Pursuit of Happyness


WOW. I cannot believe how powerful this movie was. It was amazing.

All I can say is this. IF you have not seen this movie, you should really take the time, and watch it.

For those of you who have any idea what it's like to live in poverty, or ONE step away..... you will have a knot in your throat during the whole movie. Like me. Although my experience was not the same as theirs, so much of it was. And, it was a huge eye opener, and reminder of how far I have come in my life. :)

AND, if you've always had it easy..... It's a must see! It might help you to appreciate what you have, just a little bit more.

I'm going to have my kids watch it. They have no clue what life could have been like, or could be like - thank god.
BUT, I want them to know that life is not always so easy.
