That's crazy, man. I can't imagine being away from my wife that long. I'd go nuts. I'm currently in month three of the unemployment thing and the newness of "being free" and not having any paperwork to do has gotten old and is now extremely boring. Plus the whole insurance thing, and not having it, isn't much fun either. Congrats on getting back on track, man!

Yeah, we usually get to see each other each weekend, but recently had to go 3 weeks due to other travel. Booo!

Luckily, we had me and my son covered on a separate, private health insurance plan so we were covered. However, I'm looking forward to finally going to the dentist someday soon!

Embrace the chicken wings. They will get you through!

Congrats on the pastor job! It sounds like a great opportunity. :) I'm sorry it's been so hard on your family these past few months. My brother moved to Louisville for a job in July - he describes it as "surprisingly urban." :) Hope all is well, and I'll be thinking of you and your family.

we're praying for you all and know the Lord will give you the strength you need.
