You know once in a blue moon you will have a day like yesterday. A day where it flows, where regardless of what happens the next thing is just a little better and better. Work was a very busy day. Completed the brokerage agreements, confirmations and the remaining portion of the packet. If I say so myself it turned out really nice. The afternoon was spent helping to answer some interrogatories for my employer. If you own a commercial truck, odds are at some point a lawyer will chase you just because you have insurance. The litigation they are currently facing involves something very similar to a sweep and swoop. I am to the point that if the guys have an accident I hope it is "an accident". I will try to move on from there.
I got a phone call from Rian and he had been in for his third interview for the Principal job he has been pursuing. It went very well and he has been offered the job pending school board approval. This particular district is doing some revamping and this would basically be a new position. The superintendent was very optimistic about the board's action however. Board meets June 12, so the celebration will wait until then.
On my way home Krl called wanting a few items from the store. I made a quick stop and came home to help her prepare all the pieces of Schezuan chicken and broccoli. It looked like a mass production line, all the different items prepared and "in waiting" for their dance in the wok! We took a quick break and received a call from Kali and +e (addie). +e wanted to come over and see her Meme and Dandy. Once they got here she played, watched a little TV in her and Kat's room and then she got serious about exploring the back yard. She is so ready for us to open the pool! Maybe this weekend. When she got wound down a little she sat in Dandy's lap and we read. Finally everyone was ready to eat and +e even tried the broccoli and peppers and onions. I was surprised because she did refuse rice. Go figure.
About that time Rian called. He, Erica, and Reid were headed out the door to get something to eat. He said they were going to celebrate! (I thought they were going to wait). He then told me that come February '06 to expect another grandbaby! Krl had told me about three or four weeks ago to expect this. (I don't know how she does it but she always knows). I told Rian if they were having another kiddo because little man wasn't a baby any more, just ship him to me. (Of course this could mess up Christmas in February, Krl has always wanted to do Christmas in July). After Rian talked with me he talked with Krl and with Kali. They both were excited.
This situation was a little tense. Kali has been trying for a while with little success or their hopes would get up only to be dashed. She has spent a lot of time and money at the doctors and having different procedures. You could tell Kali was tickled for Rian and Erica but still jealous in a small sense. Krl told her that their time will come when it is time. Up to about now I don't think +e would have been able to accept not being the baby and being the big sister. You gotta believe GOD knows what he is doing
Anyhow, it was a good evening. Krl retired very early, she has had another fall and has a headache she cannot make go away. I am very concerned about some of her health issues, particularly her balance and some motor skill coordination. She seems very frail at this juncture.
Several opportunities seem to be coming to fruitation. I just hope I can have adequate time to prepare for them. All I will say is that I am cautiously optimistic.
We are having an Ignite/Stream Energy Team meeting tonight at the Fairfield. Coach is coming in from B'wood with his powerpoint presentation. I think he has been to Temple, San Angelo, Brownwood and tonight Abilene, so you can tell he is hyped about this. Right now I am needing a little help. I told him I felt like I got taken to the prom and left in the corner. June 18 their is going to be a BIG Stream Energy/Ignite meeting at the Abilene Civic Center. I think many of the big boys are coming in for that one.
Today is a toss up. More interrogatories, more data entry, a couple of trailers up at the shop. It could be filled with variety.
I haven't talked with the newly weds but I understand they are home in Lubbock. Krl has talked with them and they are talking of a reception maybe July 2.
Make it a good day!
FATHER thank YOU for the blessed day yesterday. I could use a do over! FATHER I pray for healing, for me and for Krl. I pray especially that YOU would help Krl to feel better. I pray for Memama, Pepa, Ol', Hag, B., Lillie, Carol, Michelle, Aimee, Jennifer, Tori, Ed, Ashlyn Kate, Tj, Anna, Jess, those continuing their recovery from the accident, Dr. Mackie, Yaenga, and Jeanine. I ask YOUR gift of healing for them. I pray for comfort for those who are hurting from loss. I pray for those of us who stumble in our walk with you. I pray for our spiritual family and our leaders. I pray for the efforts being made to expand YOUR kingdom. I pray for Rian and Erica's new baby, I pray for a good pregnancy and a healthy baby. YOU are good to me. Every blessing YOU pour out I'll turn back in praise.
