Ok - One more post

Work has been CRAZY busy - what with the guys being helpless without me and me trying to get things in order before I leave.

Just kidding - but things have been crazy. New boss, big boss, and project managers in town this week have caused me to get behind on my note taking!! Boo for that - but what do you do. When the boss tells you to do something you can't very well tell him "in a minute please"

Ok - well that's not really the reason for this post - The point is that last night I took my car to the shop to check the transmission fluid level and get the oil changed. Well turns out the transmission fluid is on some kind of a lock box and I can't do anything unless I go straight to the dealership. But that wasn't the only happy news I got. I was also informed that I needed 2 new front tires at a whopping 133 each. So $313 later I left with an oil change, 2 new tires and no fix to the main reason I went in in the first place! Thank goodness I had some money in savings.

Please pray that THAT was what I needed my savings for and not for the time I'd be missing work. I know that God has it under control, and everything will work out like it always does. I just need to remind myself sometimes! :-)

I leave tomorrow!!! Wooo HOOOOO!!!!
(I realize most of you are confused since I said yesterday I only had one more day to leave - but I don't count the day I'm on - nor the day I leave - it makes me feel better :) )

So my flight leaves tomorrow at 4 pm and by Sunday I'll be with the kids.

God, you hold me and those kids in your hands. I know that I'm going on this trip for a reason, and whether that's to catch a vision to go full time into ministry or whether that's to be the one person who can talk to those kids and let them know that no matter how alone they feel - You are always there and you call them by name. You call them beloved. Open their hearts and break mine.

thank you all again for all the prayer and support you have given me. Can't wait to get back and catch you all up!
