Dad has either 6 or 7 weeks left at Marshfield Clinic (he will decide once he sees how it plays out with insurance costs, etc.). He is so ready to be done with that place. I’m glad he got to work in a hospital setting for a while, but I don’t think it was as great as he thought it would be. And I know it didn’t use his best skills. I hope he can find something way more enjoyable in Tennessee!
Just one example: he thought he was on call this past week, because that was what the schedule he accessed said. Then the boss today said, “Woops, it wasn’t you that was on call; it was so-and-so.” So he spent the entire week glued to his cell phone and didn’t get paid for it and now this week he is actually on call. It is stuff like that…
We have a lot to do before he can leave, but he got quite a bit done this past weekend. He needed to open up the wall in the recording room and take out a window and an exhaust fan, because lots of air was getting in there. Then he insulated it and closed it up. Then he also had to move the pipes to the front bathroom that keep freezing. He put them under the floor – essentially in the basement, though only about a foot from where they were. He still has to do the final hookup. But those were two “big” projects that needed doing and it only took the one weekend. He is also working just about every day on emptying out The Garage. Another HUGE project!
Pray for him, if you think of it. He is both excited and conflicted about leaving his job and often overwhelmed with what all needs doing.
Nathan can relate to feeling conflicted, excited, overwhelmed. It’s hard to get all the little things tied up.
We’ll be praying it all goes smoothly!
Thanks, Amy.
And, after I watched War Room, I’m praying regularly for all of you. I was before, sometimes, but I’m much more earnest now, so let me know if there are particular things you would like me to pray for.
Thank you so much. We can always use prayer. I’ll have to think about specific things and let you know. That’s a great movie!
