I really detest days like today. I don't have any inkling of what my day holds. I am not even sure what direction it will go.

Tuesday was a surefire hodgepodge day. A little office, a little shop, a little office again, pricing, checking, whatever needed to be done. Late in the day as I was getting ready to go home the owner asked, "Would you mind taking a truck to the metroplex tomorrow?" While I have no desire to do this on a regular basis, I don't mind on occasion. It actually works as a PR tool with both the drivers in our employ and our customers. Often times I will be told of a problem with a dock worker at one of the vendors, this way I can experience it. If they only knew the telephone numbers I have at my fingertips. Document the time, the dock, the machine number, and someone's feet are going to be to the fire! Of course sometimes this works backwards and it is one of our drivers who finds themselves on the hot seat.

After being asked, I put the wheels in motion to go that direction. I was planning on stopping by the store to pick up a card for Krl anyway so I put together a quick list of "goodies" I like to carry in the truck. Diet Coke and other high energy snacks. Did I mention Diet Coke? When I got to the house I put together my little cooler and got everything ready to go. Then the phone rang. "You may not need to go, we won't know until sometime tomorrow."

I arrived at work early this morning and just about eight I was reassured it looked like it would not be necessary to go to the metroplex. One thing about this joint, everything is just as steady and solid as laundry hanging on the clothes line! I suppose when I leave to go home tonight I will finally have closure on what my day held.

We had visitors yesterday. Memama was released from the hospital, she is doing good. She and Pepa and Tj ran by the house to give Krl her birthday gift. They didn't stay long. Then about seven-thirty or so Trc and Kat came over and delivered Krl's gift. Through the day Krl heard from all the kiddos, so she had a pretty good birthday.

So far this morning I have been enjoying the steady patter of rain falling on the building. This would be a great day to stay at home and sleep with the windows cracked. Hope for my day!

FATHER, please bring my day together. I ask for patience and tolerance to make it through it. I pray for Krl, for her healing. I pray for Memama, Ollie, Hag, B., Lillie, Carol, Michelle, Aimee, Ashlyn Kate, Jennifer, Tori, Tj, Anna, Jess, those still recovering from their injuries, Yaenga, Dr. Mackie, and Jeanine. I ask YOUR miracle of healing for them all. I pray for those saddened by loss. Comfort them. I pray for those of us who struggle in our journey with YOU, give us direction. I pray for our spiritual family and for our leaders. I pray for the efforts to expand YOUR kingdom. Restore unto me.
