Status Report

Still haven't seen Narnia. Looking like it might be a future rental.
Haven't learned how to (and therefore haven't installed) wood flooring. Also haven't saved enough to buy the wood flooring just yet.
Finished past "24" seasons and enjoying the current season. Don't mess with Jack!
Did some painting of the entryway.
There ARE feet on the chairs. You can sit in them, just don't wiggle around a bunch.
Did not read all of Genesis, but my weekly bible study has begun again, so I am making progress.

I'm currently between classes at UHCL's scenic campus killing time before my 7 o'clock class. There is an interesting student body here at UHCL. More like an airport than a traditional college campus. Most people come here to do their thing (finish a degree, get another degree, improve their employabilityness) and leave. Not many groups of students sitting around discussing current events or the lecture from class. We are more like employees. That's the way I approach it at least. I'm here to do a job. To get a piece of paper that will make someone want to hire me, and pay me enough money to do things I want to do. I do enjoy some classes. Others not so much. But all in all it's good. I'm very blessed to be here doing this. I know that. I just wish I could fast forward to the end. Then I could tell my wife she can quit her current job, and try this one again if she wants.

Yes, it is a job. The time will pass before you know it, and you will have that piece of paper that indicates you are officially qualified to do what you can actually already do. Odd- the power of a piece of paper. I'm proud of you for the many jobs you do!

You are such a sweet husband. I remember the last year of grad school feeling oddly job-like to me. It was weird since I knew we wanted to start a family and I probably wouldn't be getting paid for that piece of paper anyway. But, I have it and can use it if and when God tells me to. Speaking of family...could you two at least consider creating some cousins before Kara goes for ANOTHER degree?!?!?!
