Imagine my surprise. I didn't think anyone really read these anymore. I got a call from a dear old friend the other evening checking to see if I was okay. I guess if you read this blog lately you'd think that. I sometimes write when I'm upset. While still valid feelings, I see where it would cause alarm.
Update time. I've been praying constantly and my prayers have been answered. I know it wasn't just my prayers either, and I thank everyone for doing so on our behalf. Lee got a new job. He just started on Monday. I hope he will be happy there. I've had a little bit of a hard time reading his reaction to the work. Could be newbie anxiety or that there is a modicum of confidentiality to the work. Maybe I'm the anxious one.
Our refi went through. It only took 7 months and 5 days. Yes, that long. It was literally dead in the water and somehow came through. Oh, and we got an even better interest rate than the one we locked in initially. I suppose I should mention I was praying about this too.
Mark got his Eagle project! He's gotten all of his signatures and now it's a matter of him gathering support, some funds, and a legion to carry it out on July 27th. He will be helping out Noah Webster School on a couple of projects they need done prior to school starting in the next month.
I have this theory of threes. You know how people say bad news comes in threes? Silly superstition really, but I think there is slim truth to it. I've just given an examply of three good things that have happened. Within a week, mind you. I had texted a couple of friends that the next thing that happened would be bad.
Well, it was. The IRS sent me a nice letter saying that they wanted $500.00 more to account for one of our deductions they were disallowing. I have until the 29th of this month to pay that. I think it's funny in light of their scandal.
Maybe next time I post, I'll have a funny to share. ;)

Love you all. Glad to hear all the good news. Was especially glad to have you come for our anniversary party. I can't wait to see all the pictures of family. Thanks.
I'm happy you have been blessed with so many tender mercies!
