Gary Gets A Treat



I couldn't find a picture of our car, so I put up one of his namesake. With Geoff having to drive to Boulder once or twice a month, and winter on its way, we decided we should get new tires and get the car realigned. Wow, what a difference! It's like driving a new car. Very enjoyable.

The short version of what transpired this week was we thought everything was fine with the loan, we found out it wasn't and we lost the loan and the house. The bank screwed up, and the bank came up with a solution to appease us. So we are getting the money, and we won back the house. But it was a heart wrenching experience, that has left us very distrustful. We put our faith in Jesus to resolve it, and comfort us.

We go back to waiting to close (next week), and will scramble to move and clean. We are elated we won't be staying here, and that the dreams we thought were lost, are not.

Mary & I met for lunch at the museum yesterday. I love hanging out with her, and I hope she doesn't move. We saw Jeff, who wasn't overly social, he was hanging with his new department. He did offer to give us a behind the scenes look at the Zoology collection in the future.

Well, back to packing. I'll close with a quote from Family Guy.

Peter Griffin: Yes, we all enjoy the Bible in this house!
Francis Griffin: Really? What's your favorite book of the Bible?
Peter Griffin: Ah... um... ah... the one where Jesus swallows the puzzle piece and the man in the big yellow hat has to take him to the hospital?
