My first look at the clock was shortly after midnight, what am I doing awake already? Lots going on in my mind. Finishing the packing at the office, Krl's first day back in the work place since March 2001, work possibilities for me. Lots going on!

I suppose my main concern is Krl. She is going back into a field she enjoyed great success in. I know she is nervous but I believe she will do fine. I believe it will be like riding a bicycle! She is smart, knows her field, isn't scared of working, she is personable, and she knows her customer base! She will do fine!

I met with a couple of work possibilities on Friday. I need to fill the next forty-five days with something that will pay the bills. My next contract will begin around the first of September. One of the possibilities keeps asking me when I can start. We haven't discussed any particulars, pay, job description, or possible benefits. I did go in and look over their operation and it is in trouble. I think the last manager was so lost that they felt like they had to so something even if it was wrong, and it was! They are supposed to be checking into a contract the former manager signed which affiliated them with a regional company. This contract gives the regional company forty percent of profits and all they (the regional company) do is send out the invoices and collect the money. I am afraid that the simplest thing could be to just start again from ground zero. I don't see anyway to right this monster in forty-five days! Another new possibility is a former sub contractor who needs some help. We have worked together before and seem to understand what it takes to do the job correctly. Probably the best part is that they understand about my upcoming contract and will take whatever I can give them. Either one of the above would allow me to stay at home. I sure don't need to be going off now because when my contract begins I will be on the job site until January!

I have to get one of the travel trailers out for Kali and Ollie. There is a family reunion this weekend at Lake Brownwood and the family has out grown the facilities, requiring alternate accommodations. I will take the trailer to Kali's and let her get it cleaned up and beds made and then Friday I will take it down and set it up, I will then return to Abilene and Sunday I will go back to Brownwood, spend the day and bring the trailer home. What a pain!

We didn't do the pewee granddaughter deal this week. After Krl's Friday with Addie it just didn't seem like a good idea. To much of a good thing is not good! To much of a bad thing is worse! Addie is going to have to behave if she comes back to Meme and Dandy's! I did get up and around for Church and Sunday school. I would walk through the bedroom and call out the time and finally I was ready and headed for the door and Krl was not ready so I did the solo deal. I always enjoy Val leading. We had a group in attendance from Brazil and one of them brought the message. They had a short video presentation and introduced a team that is going to Salvador Brazil, one of the visiting Shepherds from Brazil led a prayer blessing this new team as they prepare to embark. Class was probably the best it has been.

I spent a little time looking at some blogs of interest. I ran across one, hisvoice.blogspot.com that was interesting. It had a hyper link to a web site sinbgone.com an on line source for forgiveness complete with the convenience of paypal! Wow! What next?

FATHER, please bless the coming day and week. Bless Krl as she goes to work. Give her patience and tolerance as she reestablishes herself in this industry. Bless her with success. I ask for YOUR wisdom and guidance in deciding what I need to do. Direct me. FATHER I continue to ask for you healing of Aimee, Rene', Carol, and Michelle. Bless them all. Expand us FATHER.
