Getting ready to travel.

Well as I start this thing out here I have no idea what I am doing I just went to www.blogger.com and followed my nose to this point. I have no idea what the next step will be until somewhere down the road I push another button but just in case this  makes it to somewhere where someone out there reads it I'll try to say somethine interesting. Oh this techy stuff is so brain wrenching, my head spins. Anyway back to saying something of interest.
Well having securely set our plans in motion by booking all our flights and paying for them with out cancellation insurance, by booking all our rental cars and telling all our hosts when we will be arriving on their doorsteps,  we are completely in the hand of our God. You might ask if we are just a little scared and the answer would be "no" " we are a lot scared". That's not to say that Gods hand is not secure, nor that He is not faithful in every way, it's simply because being securely locked into our humanity we are among those to whom Jesus refers when He says "Oh ye of little faith". Scared? yes, Confused? a bit, Going to change anything? not until God clearly says to. So as we rapidly approach the time when this furlough is about to begin (29 days from now) we are no where near ready and the excitement only seams to speed up the clock and hinder the process of preparation.
Gail has most of the rooms ready for the people that will be arriving on the 17th and will be ready when the time comes but she won't know it until conference is over and she has to prepare the rooms again for incoming students, before we leave. The yard is starting to look ready but it seams to be endless preparation. I often think that if I turn off the whipper snipper I could hear the grass grow but by the grace of God I to will be ready.
I am going to stop this rambling and see if I can make this go somewhere and possibly even control where that somewhere might be. What I ask of you is please let me know if you happen to be one of those to whom it makes it.
God bless whoever has had the experience of reading this. I was going to say enjoyed the experience but I think I'll stick with had the experience.

  2. You say technology is so hard, but I distinctly remember you building your own tax software from scratch on Excel, and building a database to keep track of our whole family that had an easy entry application, and could print out envelopes with addresses from the database at the push of a button. Oh, and reproduced the gateway house in sketch up before they started charging for it.
