Hi, all. Sorry I haven't been around lately, but a ton of stuff has happened since my last post. I have been working. I work for a consulting firm, and the client engagement that I was hired for hasn't quite gotten into full swing yet. That would normally make me nervous (it still does, actually), but in my case, I'm glad, because my company lets me work at a location closer to my home, and sometimes out of my home, which makes the transition easier.
Also, my wife had to have some surgery (we found out after I was hired), and so it has helped being at home while she healed up (took almost 8 weeks for her to fully recover). The good news is that she's fully recovered from that surgery - the bad news is that the pathology showed some cancer cells, so we're not out of the woods yet. More surgery should do the trick, but it's hard juggling a new job, kids starting school, and wife's illness.
Well, God doesn't give us anything we can't handle.
We missed our bi-annual WDW trip - after so long out of work (wife also out of work until recently - 2 years out for her total), finances won't allow. With other complications, we probably wouldn't have gone anyway. But soon, we hope.
Keep the prayers and pixie dust coming, please - it's worked so far. Thank you all so much.
There have been a ton of other things going on in my personal life (not for these boards - sorry - shame, really, because it's good soap opera!), so if we got through these last two years, I'm convinced that there is nothing we can't handle by the grace of God.
