Work, work, work

So my plan is to update this website regularly on Sundays, and at other times if I feel like it. But it looks like tomorrow will be booked. We have flight test engineers from Cedar Rapids in town to do testing on the rig, and as they want to get as much done in as short a time as possible, they are pretty much working as much as they can. So far this has included evenings and weekends, and they have only been here two days. So tomorrow, Sunday, I will be working in the morning to support them in troubleshooting some of the problems they are having. In the afternoon our church is having a graduate recognition, and I’m supposed to be there to pray over those graduating, along with the other adult helpers. And right now, I’m waiting for a guy to get home so I can call and ask him about another problem we are having. One thing I dislike more than working on a weekend is making other people work on the weekend. (Which is why I’m feeling rather bad for my driver right now. I’ve kept him up past midnight twice this week, and he worked all day today as well.) Fortunately, everyone we are working with has been very helpful and supportive in getting our issues resolved as quickly as possible.

And that support is on top of Cedar Rapids trying to swim out of the flood. See this link for some info. At this time I don’t know anyone who has been affected more than trying to keep water out of their basements. At least, the people I have heard from haven’t been seriously affected, however with the water supply low, everyone in the area is being affected. Please keep them in your prayers.

That’s all for now.
