Hello family! We are home and busy working on the house and trying to find a job... an interesting combination since each could be a full-time job. Which should come first is the question. Do we wait to get the house ready for sale before we get a job, making it difficult if we have to move, or do we hope to get one locally and not have to move? Well, we are trying to split the difference. The big project now before the weather changes is painting the outside. I have been playing with colors on some Home Depot software. Would you care to vote? It isn't a perfect representation, but it helps. We are hiring out the painting, but as with all home projects, the preparation is just as difficult! I know you wish you were all here to help, especially Russ.

Love you all!
