The NIGH****CHMAN - Friday - 8/28
Looking forward to hearing of the results of Jill's kids tennis matches.
Have a good weekend, I will try to stop in from time to time.
A REPEAT FROM YESTERDAY, IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: I received a prayer request from someone on the TMB that needs attention. We have prayed for an individual on the TMB in the past. That person has passed and no longer suffers, but the family has requested anonimity. So I will honor their wishes. They do not want the person's name out there on the internet. Just know that someone special to one of our board members has passed. Pray for the TMBer as well as the family of the individual.
If you are new to the board, this link explains what the NIGHT WATCHMAN is (if you are interested). Otherwise, just read on, you will probably figure it out anyway.

Anonymous prayers for the friend of a TMBer, who is very troubled at this time. I have been in touch with the TMBer and prayers are still needed.
Prayer requests are listed below.
Continue to keep your thoughts and prayers for the members of our Armed Forces serving around the world, especially during this time of increased awareness. Please thank God for these men and women every day. In addition, please keep the wives and family members in your thoughts.
PEOPLE SEEKING EMPLOYMENT:
Anne and her spouse
Jennifer - (Cruise Director Julie) - still interviewing
Jen Ewald - hoping for a traveling position to open up shortly
Jeri
Lalocaweta - her spouse
Stephanie and her friend Mack
Vicki V.
Those who are not yet unemployed, but layoffs are looming
Upcoming Surgeries/current hospitalization:
Meggie is in Arlington Memorial while they check on her pancreas.
Recovering from Surgery:
Christopher J - had his RNY on 7/21. He is recovering, but had a stricture. It was repaired on 8/14, now the recovery from that surgery moves on.
Dana's sister Renee is recovering from two surgeries. Her skin graft on her leg is not healing properly.
Janet (1divaatheart) spouse recovering from kidney surgery.
Karen (Misty750342002) - Pray for her spouse as he as recovers from his eye surgery in an attempt to save his eyesight.
Other prayer requests:
George - BJ the Carboy (a car salesman who I purchased my car from) is the son of Jerry Reynolds. Those of you in the metroplex have surely heard of Jerry. He used to own a car dealership in the metroplex and did lots of charitable things in the area. BJ is in the hospital at this time and not in good shape. Originally they were talking about a heart transplant. Right now they have backed off that. His cariologist believes the heart transplant is the last thing to do, when all else fails. Can't say as I blame him.
Jennifer - prayer for the sale of their house.
Jenn Ewald asks prayers that her financial situation improves so she does not lose her house.
Meggie - friend Nancy is in assisted living home and is on her last days. Pray for Meggie's family also as they try to fight through this.
Vanessa (ButterflyReborn) asks for prayers for her family.
Vanessa also asked for a request for continued prayer for The Dunford Family and all of their friends, doctors, nurses, medical staff, and even all of the people that have never met Elizabeth or the Dunford's but have prayed for and/or have been affected by their story. Elizabeth's pain is over but the real, deep pain has yet to begin - especially for Michelle.
Below is one of God's children that definitely need our prayers. This is one specific cases, we know there are others out there. Remember them too.
Gina J. - Pray for her 6 year old Marina, diagnosed with a terminal illness at age 2. She has improved, but still needs our prayers. Pray for this brave little girl
GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!

Prayers for all of the spoken and unspoken requests. Healing prayers and thoughts going out to Meggie, and the Dunford family. Prayers for anyone hurting tonight for what ever reason.
Blessings to all,
Avis
Had a good interview today. I'll find out Tuesday if I've made it to the 2nd round. If I did, the 2nd round will take place the week of 9/14. It's a field position for a company HQ'd in Chicago, so my office would be in my house. :) No commute to the office. Just driving for sales calls which is awesome!
Today's drive back was uneventful with the exception of the A/C in my 15 month old car going out. I'm so not happy about that. I should probably have called the dealer this afternoon, but I didn't feel like dealing with all of their "dumb girl" questions. (i.e. "Did you press the button with the snowflake until it lit up?" and the like.) It's a good thing I tend to run cold naturally. I made it to Waco before I needed to take my sweater off. When I stopped for gas in New Braunfels, I realized how overheated I was. When I got out of the car, my seat had wet spots where my thighs had been touching it. Totally gross. When I got home, I showered as soon as I got the car unloaded. I'll call the dealer on Monday and get it in. It should be covered under warranty as I only have 16K miles on it.
I'm getting ready to call it a night. Have a good one! Prayers for all who need them.

If I were lying, wouldn't my pants be on fire?!?
