Moving on Over

So the papers are signed and we seem to be done with a major
transition in our life...the sale of our first home. We have been
moving several non-essential items over the past few weeks on
anticipation of today and our major move comes tomorrow.

I am happy in how things have progressed so far and I look forward to
getting settles in our new place. Hopefully his new move will allow
for more time at home and more money in the bank.

In all of this I keep praying that God will grant us wisdom and lead
us down the path he desires us to travel. Where that is, at least for
now, is yet to be seen.

15 Easy Steps to an Exciting Day

Step 1: Wake up at 3:30am to get ready for work.
Step 2: Attend 7am Meeting.
Step 3: Head to OB/GYN for ultrasound and discover you're on track
for having a health baby boy.
Step 4: Return to work after 3 hours of non-productive time and a
crap load to catch up on.
Step 5: Be the last one to leave from work.
Step 6: Get a phone call informing you of a showing on your home
tomorrow afternoon.
Step 7: Realize that the house is a mess and your wife is getting
home late with a tired and hungry toddler.
Step 8: Further realize that poorly installed shingles caused a leak
inside your bedroom, which led to the removal and destruction of a
four foot piece of baseboard, and four, 2-inch square holes that you
cut out to do some investigation and venting.
Step 9: Arrive home with a headache and cold sweats because you
haven't eaten all day.
Step 10: Get phone calls, that you just don't have time for as you
try to fight a headache and clean, from family and friends
congratulating you on the good news about the baby.
Step 11: Get phone call from wife that she hit a deer.
Step 12: Realize that your beautiful, pregnant wife and 2-year-old
daughter were just in a car accident.
Step 13: Have your wife inform you that it was a minor hit, the car
is drivable and she'll be home in a few minutes.
Step 14: Clean. Clean. Clean.
Step 15: Realize it is 10 o'clock and if you're really lucky you'll
be asleep by 11 o'clock so you can get 4 1/2 hours of sleep before
starting your new day.
