fog and phone calls, just another day

Growing up working outside all the time, you’re life becomes determined by the weather. It’s been raining here for the last three days, after a bunch of rain last weekend. This is more rain than we’ve had all year. And that makes for some bad landscaping weather. This morning, we woke up to cloudless, cold skies that made it really foggy almost until lunch time. I’ve heard that fog is supposed to be depressing, but it was a fun day. Everything was soaked, including us. It was cold, but we survived. We also got to go home early because it was just too wet.

From fog to phone calls, I came home and transitioned from landscaping to “support-development”…made a bunch of phone calls, lined up hosts for a dessert get-together in January, and worked on lining up some more details for a survey trip in March. Sometimes, it seems discongruous. But, I’m thankful for days like today, too. Nicolette and I are able to keep working at pretty flexible jobs that let us prepare towards this goal of serving the Church full time. Depressing fog that turns the road into a maze of slow-drivers became a fun day of getting in touch with old friends.
