Wow! My joints are creaking, knees are mad, back is stiff, fingers swollen. Ah, the joy of physical labor!

Got the call yesterday. Contract will begin Tuesday. I was instructed to be there but that a full compliment of people wont be necessary until Monday October 4. They want some equipment and a few people. I am excited but I am dreadful as well.

Krl and I have just about made a deal. We have both been fighting a depression the last few days. With all that has gone on and the need for me to go to the jobsite it is no wonder. Pray for us. Pray for closure for Krl. God has something else in mind for her.

FATHER, please lift our heavy hearts. Energize us, boost us. Renew our confidence in YOUR plan being carried out as YOU intend. Be with Rene', Carol, Michelle, and Aimee. Heal them. I pray for the needs of our spiritual family. Be with the hurricane victims. Direct the relief efforts. Praise to YOU from whom all blessings flow!
