What a Week!

I can't believe it has taken me this long to blog. WOW!!! However, it has not been an ordinary week. 4th of July was great. We enjoyed having my parents out for some great hamburgers. We then visited our neighbors for fireworks. FUN!!! On Sunday we decided to relax but it didn't go as planned. Jason's boss called him and told him he was laid off. Yep, that's right and one of the reasons I haven't blogged. We are still shocked and have no words to explain or to know what the future holds. Jason spent Sunday evening talking to family and friends and I was online figuring out the unemployment option and revising his resume. No time to waste. Monday we sent out about 8 resumes and Jason got a call THAT evening. YEA!!! I had a class on Tuesday and Wednesday so Jason was at home getting his portfolio ready for an INTERVIEW on Wednesday!!!! It went very well and the travel time was not bad either. Jason should know something this Monday. This weekend I am having Jason complete his honey-do list. I've got to keep him busy.

I found this quote on Monday after Jason heard that he had an interview; it is so true.

Life is a roller coaster. Sometimes you're at the top of the hill feeling good. Other times your heading for the bottom feeling totally out of control. Life is full of things that are hard to handle, but you can get through them.

We are praising God daily to help us in this situation. We are in need of guidance, strength, and patience. Nothing prepares you for life's twists and turns. We are taking things day by day. We know that many people are praying for us and it is appreciated. (tear)
