Hump day, harumph, harumph!

Halfway to where I want to be! It hasn't been a bad week, but I have had better. I have been digging out of the paperwork that had accumulated for me to load in the spreadsheets. A couple of days out of the office and I have paid dearly. Add to this work load the fact that we have been trying to talk out some possibilities in the office and it has been a full day.

I requisitioned a demo disc for some new software made specifically for the transportation industry. This is an updated version of what I had used in the past however they have a lot of new interfaces that are trick. I have told the owners that they may think I am crazy recommending new software because this particular program would get rid of the entry repetition as well as the spreadsheet entry that I am doing. In other words my job would be a victim of the upgrade. The owner has assured me that wouldn't be the case, I might take on different duties but he is convinced I am a "value buy". (I guess I should feel good, maybe).

Coach signed me up in this new network marketing endeavor. A meeting Monday, another tonight in Winters. I hope it performs at even a fraction of its potential. I don't know that I have ever seen coach as pumped as he is about this. Some of the ones I figured would be interested are staying on the sideline. Weird.

The remainder of the week may get wild and wooly! With commencement exercises many of the drivers are needing off Thursday and Friday evening, add to that the fact that one driver is having surgery Friday morning and it could be a week to remember!

When I made +e's graduation I had a little extra time to do errands. I was able to get inspection stickers on the company vehicle as well as my little work truck. I also registered the little truck. Today I bit the bullet and bought an air conditioner compressor (from Chris' NAPA store), so I may soon be driving the S-10.

Rian has an interview at Friendship this afternoon. It is for an assistant principal's job. Lubbock ISD gave him the same story as last year wanting him to get one more year of teaching experience, that one more with last years one more equals two. Talk straight here. He may teach history but he does know math.

The kiddo's step-dad's father Pat, or Paw as they call him is not doing well. He has had several health issues the past couple of years but yesterday Ollie called and said they were removing all life support and they were just going to try make him comfortable. Doctors don't believe he will last two days. It is a sad situation but he is so tired, he is ready. I am just hoping that the kids can be as accepting as he is. Sometimes quality of life is more important than life.

FATHER, I pray for a blessed day. I ask for YOUR presence at every juncture. I pray that YOU will go with me tonight as I travel to the meeting. FATHER I pray for success in this venture that Coach has presented me with. I pray for my health and for Krl's, I pray for relief for us both. I pray for Memama and Pepa, for Ollie, for Hag, for Pat Lawrence, for B., for Lillie, for Carol, for Michelle, for Aimee, for Ashlyn Kate, for Tori, for Jennifer, for Tj, for Anna, for Jess, for those continuing to recover from their injuries, for Dr. Mackie, for Yaenga and for Jeanine. I ask YOUR comfort and healing if it is YOUR will. I pray for those saddened by loss. Fill their void with YOU. I pray for those of us who struggle in our walk with YOU. Give us peace and purpose. I pray for our spiritual family and for our leaders. I pray for the efforts being made to expand YOUR kingdom. Be with Duane and he leaves Abilene and moves to Fort Worth. Help him to find his niche quickly. FATHER, YOUR love lifts me daily!
