Lifehouse

I have found a new music group. They have been around a little while, but Birdie and I just discovered them. I am very impressed with there music. So impressed that I thought I would share them with you. One of my favorite songs is “Breathing”. The concept behind the song is that we should be content just to be hanging around Heaven's door just to hear G_d breath. I think that is just an amazing level of devotion. I can understand the love involved. How many of you have desired to be in the presence of someone even in the quiet times just so you could be close. I know I have.


Breathing Low High

Some other songs I like by Lifehouse.

Sick Cycle Carousel Low High
Hanging By a Moment Low High

The New Job

Well I started my new job today and to say the least like most first days it was boring. I spent most of my day reading manuals, signing paperwork, asking questions, and trying to not get in the way. Tomorrow I will get my hands on an actual analyzer and get into the real learning. It will probably be a month before I get started traveling and that is when the real work begins. I am quite confident that I will catch on quickly and be their #1 tech. Not too difficult a feat considering there are only two of us and the other guy is green.

The only concerns were the background check and drug test and it appears that I have come through that gauntlet as I received an e-mail from the Texas Workforce Commission (where I found the job posted) congratulating me on getting the job and deactivating my account. Is that cool or what? One thing I will lament is the lack of ability to get on-line while I am traveling. My lap-top is down right now and it is looking like I won't get it fixed before the beginning of the new year. The only problem is that the CD/DVD drive crapped out and I tried restoring some stuff that took out the operating system. If I can get the drive fixed I can reload the software and then take it with me when I travel.

OH-HAPPY DAY!

After feeling the desperation of underemployment for almost two months and two weeks of thinking that Del-Mar is not going to hire me they asked today when I could come in for the pre-employment drug screening test. This is just a formality with me as I have never done drugs in my life.

Now all that is left is getting caught up on bills and rent. Once we have that done we will be looking into getting our emergency fund redone. This job is really a God-send. I will be getting back into the industry that I know and have opportunity for advancement as well. I want to thank all of you for your prayers and well wishes. Hopefully I will get back on track with my usual posts on the Word and Yeshua, maybe even answer a few questions.

Update

Here is how things stand for us right now. I have had two interviews that seem promising one id for a gas analyzer company and one is as a maintenance tech for a company that makes CDs and DVDs. Both jobs would be good ones. I thought I would have received a job offer from the analyzer company by now as they seemed to really want me to work for them we only had salary issues to work out. The second company I interviewed with today has two positions open and it looks promising.

On the home front things are looking grim. After a month of working with a group that said they were going to help us with things like rent finally came through but are way short on being able to pay our rent. We currently have about $400 in he bank, they are offering to help us with $300. that is going to leave us $300 short on paying rent that is already past due. I still have one more bill to pay and we need to eat for the next two weeks. Please be praying that G_d provides a way for us out of this.
