1. For camping/beach trip this weekend! I will be hanging out with two awesome ladies at a camp and at the oceanside for the weekend. It's supposed to be 100* so. I might die.
2. For my parents to be in town for 3-4 days: my dad on business and my mom just for fun. It's a little hard to plan things to do and places to go when we're so new here ourselves.
3. For work: Craig successfully transferred his CDL-B to Mass. so he can drive here (despite the MN gov shutdown!). Plus, he was hired at Scott's Lawn, but that won't start for another week or so.
So life will be a bit crazy for a week and then it seems it will be more normal than it has been for over two months.

Back to Work
So far the two of us have been fancy free for the last month or so, with (almost) no responsibilities. Which can be fun but a bit rough on the bank account.
I have found a start-up business/ministry based in Chicago that will give me work to do from home. This job is pretty much exactly what we have been praying and searching for, so we're very thankful. There is no guaranteed income from them, since it is a demand-driven thing, so that would be a topic for further supplication... however, I have lived 27 years without being in dire want, so I have confidence that God will continue to provide.
Craig is still job hunting and calling and waiting, so it will be great to have some money coming in while we wait for his work to come.

No jobs, just dreams
Apparently the economy is improving? Apparently we missed that ride.
Craig has driven a school bus for something like four years now. I haven't had a job in my field ever. (Shoulda gone to heavy machine school instead of Bible school...) We are really starting to long big time for a family but we have no idea how God will orchestrate all these things, because they sure haven't been added yet! He has faithfully provided for all our needs to this point, even for my medical bills from back when, and this new car that will pass the MA inspections.
We continue to send out applications and emails and resumes and letters. Blah. I'm more of a farm girl; I wish we could just have a cow and chickens and grow our own food and forget this working stuff.
Cows don't ask for 3-5 years' experience.
