Well, the 50 degree weather has turned around and the sleet is taking over. Back to winter in Iowa. Oh well. We weren't really expecting that it was over!
Well, the van is gone. We had to make a decision regarding the van since our mechanic didn't think that it was worth fixing. We got 175,000 miles out of it, and it was a great van. I was sorry to see it go. However, we were able to trade for a bargain Toyota that is much smaller, but will get great gas mileage. The girls really like it (which is good, because they are the ones that will be squished in the back!) We downsized about two years too soon, but in God's providence, we thought it was the wisest choice that we had. Lord willing, this car will last a long time.
Financial decisions are so "iffy" these days, and you wonder if you are doing the right thing. We are glad that the Lord is in control of the economy and not Obama. I could spend lots of time worrying about all the socialistic laws he is imposing, but am trying to rest in the knowledge that God is working out His will. I am glad that the government is not the answer to all our ills.
Jathan found that he is likely to deploy after his training, unless his unit deploys before he is finished. We'll see how that turns out.
We get to meet Jathan's girlfriend in a week and a half when she comes to visit. We are looking forward to meeting her. Jathan got to meet her parents last weekend and he really enjoyed her family.
Well, work is calling. In the face of all the world issues, we have the work of today, with the individual students that we will have come through our door. We pray that we might get to present the Gospel to them, and they would come to know Christ. It would be great if they understood math too!
