Day One

Day one without my beloved Sister at work with me.
We had a fabulous weekend. Lizzie is now house sitting for a church family that is on vacation for 3 weeks. We spent Saturday at their house- they have a pool and a hot tub so we are enjoying the amenities. Paul and I will be with Lizzie on the weekend- so we can take her to church and have some fun in the sun with her.
Today starts the first day without Lizzie. I am going to rearrange my workload and schedule to make sure I do her job and mine.
I covet your prayers this week as I work on the adjustment of Lizzie not being here.
This week is our anniversary week. Tomorrow and Wednesday night we are staying at the VDARA to celebrate our anniversary. Priceline is AWESOME. I was able to get the room for $40 a night.
Well- gotta run.. Just wanted to give a small update.
Thanks again for your prayers.

Her last day

And the day has come- June 10th, 2011 Lizzie's last day of work.
I have such mixed emotions of her not working with me anymore. It is the selfish part of me that does not want to let her go. She has been a wonderful help to me. I am honored that I got to work with her for 6 months- But the realistic ME understands the reasons she chose to stay home- and quite honestly her staying home will make home life even sweeter- You see, she does laundry, she cooks, and she cleans. So, in essence my home life will get a whole lot easier and my work life just a little more complicated.... BUT- it is worth the sacrifice. The other good thing is- Lizzie will be able to be a blessing to many people from church while she is off work- and that is the best part of all!
SO- THANK YOU LIZZIE for your unconditional sacrifice to HELP in all areas of our lives!
We love you and will miss you at work- But I look forward to ALL that God has in store for you while you stay home.
