The NIGH****CHMAN - Friday - 7/24

Thanks Ken for updating us on Meggie.   I will be up there sometime tomorrow to see her.   I hate that she is back there...but she needs to get this taken care of so she will feel better.   Tell Meggie tomorrow when you see her that we love her and are praying really hard for her to get over this.

Evening George;

I'm exhausted. I got barely 2 hours of sleep last night before it was time to get up and go interview this morning. The job is interesting. The pay is about $28K less than I was making in salary, but there's some good benefits that will cover about $12K in our regular out of pocket expenses. And since I'd gotten such a huge raise when I moved departments in November 2008, It's actually still a higher annual salary than I had for 2008. It's probably manageable assuming I get called back.

After my interview, I met up with Rachel (bluesun) and Ian for lunch. We had a nice visit although I wish I had gotten more sleep. I would've probably been more interesting. After lunch, I hit the road so I could get back to SAT in time to pick Michael up from his ATL flight. Traffic from Round Rock south was horrendous. It took me over 6.5 hours from Addison to home.

Tonight, we've been getting the outside of the house ready for the open house on Sunday. Tomorrow during the day we'll work on the inside to stay out of the heat.

I'm off to the shower. I need some serious rest tonight. I think I'm operating on less than 9 hours since Monday.

Prayers for all who need them. Especially Meggie. She's had so many complications.

I hope it happens for you.  And best of luck Sunday.

Prayers for you and Michael Jennifer.   Can't imagine what you are going through.   I have been in my same house for 31 almost 32 yrs.    UGH I would die if I had to move.   Good luck on the job front.   I know that God will open that window for you to go through soon.    Good luck on the open house too.   Now....Go get some much needed sleep.   Love you guys !!!

If we had roots here, it would be hard, but in nearly 8 years, we've never established any solid relationships with anyone local. We're both just completely ready to move on. It's hard not knowing where you'll be living and working in a month or two, but people move all the time and it works out. It can't be worse than staying here would be.

I wish you and Michael the best with your job hunt and move.   Hope you end up in the DFW area so we can see more of you guys!!!

Just wanted to stop by.  Brad and Oleta are moving everything out of her mother's apartment and it is either going to their house or storage.  This is the first step.  Oleta has been working hard on it since Friday, they want to finish by tomorrow night.
