April 29 – “Pigs fly”

Today we did another delivery.  The upper cabinets to the buffet area have been stored, first in Mom's garage, then here at Omega Bay.  Our contractor said to bring them along with the lower cabinets, and his finish carpenters would install them onto the bead board and then affix to the wall.  When we drove up we saw our new front door in front of our house.  It was leaning against the garage door, and no one was around.  The just delivered it and left it there.  We paid a lot for that thing.  It looked great.  It looked better when we got it inside.  Now it just needs to be stained along with the rest of the doors.  Our closets have shelves and hanger poles.  Baseboards are being created.  Work continues.   We celebrated April's birthday today.  Christina and Kel and the boys and April and Nathan and Cailyn came for lunch.  We had time to fish a little with Jachin and Micah while waiting for the roast.  The only fish caught on this day was the croaker that struck on Micah's little rod.   Pigs fly.  What's the big deal about pigs flying?  Oh.  F-L-U, not F-L-Y.  Swine flu.  Swine flu.  That's all that's on the news.  Josh is supposed to do a wedding in San Antonio this weekend.  His family was going with him, but because of swine flu, they are going to stay home while Josh goes.   As a result of that decision, Chris is heading to Mansfield tomorrow to help Christi with Zakary and Caleb.  Mom may go, too.  Looks like a bachelor weekend.  I understand Kel's church is having a men's night out Saturday to see the Wolverine movie.  Sounds intriguing.   I never got this written last night.  I was pretty tired.  That sweet little granddaughter who spent the night with us decided that from midnight to two she was supposed to cry.  Chris finally gave her to me and she settled down on my chest and went to sleep.  Way to go DadDad.  Long night.   Psalms 18:30 says, "As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is flawless."   Father, I'm sure glad you are perfect.  It helps to know that when I get to where I have to let go – to trust.  Amen.
