What a difference a day makes. Or two days. Paul is getting a bit better, but his muscle is pretty pulled. He has to reeeeally take it easy. He tripped over some stuff in the garage and fell down, twisting himself as he fell. I have him on ice, but really he has to just wait it out. God knew this would happen so He isn't surprised and it doesn't impede *His* plans.
As is the natural course of events for us, our schedule again changed but we are dealing with it. As my practical daughter put it, "Why get upset about things that are out of your control?" Indeed. Such wisdom from a 15 year-old.
We will have a street sweeper ticket after today, but that's life and a small price to pay to get this done on God's timetable instead of our own.
We will completely finish packing today and tomorrow load the U-Pack. I will depart on Monday with seven of the children and head to Texas. Michael has a job that will take over a week so he will stay behind with Mark and finish it and do some other things that need to be taken care of before he leaves.
Please pray for us today that we will be able to be smart about what we pack and what we leave out for daily use. We have already unpacked a few boxes to retrieve needed items.
Thank you!!!!

Hi, Putmans. Will you just come on and get here already? Sheesh! Let me still be the first to welcome you to TX! I think you will like it here. I don't think in that area you will find much difference, weather wise. And, convenience wise, everything is still here - WalMart, Target, Taco Bell, haha. I have found the general lifestyle to be much slower (this IS the south, ya know, haha). People are warmer, less superficial, and just nicer. And that is coming from a 3rd generation native CA girl. We have lots of cool critters down here - orange lizards, toads, green tree frogs. Our chickens love them! Let me know if you have any specific questions...
