My week in review...

I am chagrined to notice that it has been six days since I posted. I guess I succumbed to being a human doing rather than a human being...It was a busy week, but the time I have been home I have been spending with my girls...

So here is the week in review.

Last I posted, I was ruminating on the values of relationships, and that is part of why I haven't written as well, I have been focusing more of my time on person to person interaction.

I was waiting to hear about the outcome of bidding I had done on a foreclosure home for my friend Linda (see www.tapestryministry.com, feature family). I was the successful high bidder on the property for $48K at auction on 3/2. I heard last Wednesday that the seller, a bank, did not accept my offer. They countered with $79K. It was all I could do to not be rude to the poor intermediary on the phone but remarked that we were not even in the same conversation. Then later that afternoon I left to work in Cleveland, and went on to Prpotland, OR to work on Friday, and returned home yesterday.

Today was spent worshipping, enjoying a fellowship meal at church, hanging out with my girls, taking a walk with a friend and having dinner out with my husband, girls, oldest son and his girlfriend.

Then, I also received a call from Matt who is due to fly home from Switzerland tomorrow. He missed the last train from Milan to Geneva and I am helping him trouble shoot that situation.

If I could list a prayer reuqest here, it would be that Matt make it home safely tomorrow, so he doesn't miss anotehr day of class, and that I would find a suitable, affordable house for Linda.

Tomorrow I will tell you about my job.
