Change in plans! In doing our research we found out that buying the materials in for the walls was cheaper in Mississippi. That was one of the reasons we were considering building them here and shipping them down. Therefore we will not be building them here. But we have a backup plan for the 21st. It is really interesting how God works. Monday morning Dave Hatch ( director for Habitat in St Joe County) called Chris to see if we would be willing to work with them on the 21st to build walls for a home they are doing for a displaced Katrina victim! Chris had told them no at first, but after we discussed it Monday night, it became a yes.
Habitats across the country are building up to four homes for people that were displaced by Katrina or Rita that have decided to stay in their new location. The home that we will be doing the walls for is for a gal that works with Mike L. So we have our own personal conection with this project. Like I said, it is amazing how God works. As he shuts the door on one thing he opens it on another.
Finally a day off from work. I work days tommorrow the I am off Sat, Sun, and Mon. Sort of a mini vacation after my nine days in a row. It is great that we can work with one another so well that we can flex back and forth like this. Again it is really great to have Missy back. It really takes alot of the load off of Andrea and I. Whew!
I am just looking foward to August when Joe gets back so that we can sit down and I can then get started on raising support. See ya later alligators!
