Yesterday ended up being long but it wasn't a problem. Some required maintenance needed to be done! Still it was a good and productive day! Today was good. I got home early enough to see Kat before Trace and Lauren picked her up. They sure are missing Ellen. Ellen is having a big time at the Marsha Sharp Lady Raider Basketball Camp! woo! woo! She is enjoying staying with Uncle Rian, Aunt Erica and cousin Reid! Ellen met Coach Sharp and has been collecting Lady Raider autographs! Her team lost last night 15-6 but she had all six of her teams points! Go Ellen!

I got some bad news late today. My work partner, Jaime,is being pulled from our job. I am so disappointed and I think he probably is too. We are thirty-two transfer from completion, six days. We have been through three hundred and twelve and counting! You become mesmerized and one way or the other I need to be there at completion. I hate repetition but I hate quitting more!

I have been trying to figure what might transpire in the next two or three months. We have a lag before we have to perform on our next contract. For the past ten years I have spent from late August until January in the St. Lawrence community. I have made some good friends out there. Its a 24/7 job while it is up and running but it is rewarding! I will try to write more about Padre Tom, the soap of choice and the general info about the community.

FATHER, thank you for the tremendous day you blessed me with! I thank you for allowing me to work with Jaime and I thank you for the way we complimented each other, bless him as he goes on to other work FATHER. I thank you for the safe day, the productive day. I am so tired FATHER and we have just reached hump day! Rest me well FATHER! We are back to the one day off work week. FATHER I thank you so much for this job, we are almost at completion. This would not have been possible if not for your involvement FATHER. YOU are the GOD FATHER! YOU are MY GOD! For YOUR GLORY, FATHER! Please bless my tomorrow when it become my today! Thank YOU FATHER!
