The company Russell works for sent him to Colorado to work on a Wal-Mart re-model. He has been gone for a few weeks and I miss him like crazy. We had all sorts of home improvement projects we had planned this summer. Before he left, we tried everything we could to make it be so he wouldn't have to go.
Russ called me last week to inform me that the project needed some sort of secretary. After a trip out to the Wadman, a drug test, an application, and a little interview... I get to go live with my husband!! I am sort of a gate keeper/security/secretary person. Russ' parents lent us their camper. (It's HUGE) And we'll just be in Colorado till August. I am looking forward to this adventure, working with Russ, living in Colorado...
It seems that lesson I learned back in YW in the Pleasant Valley ward keeps re-surfacing, "You can't plan out every moment in your life." I think we can definitely make plans, but we cannot naively assume things will work out exactly how we first think they should. It seems that our summer is really working out in a great way. Not our original plan... but I think the path we are supposed to take. It amazes me that God cares about the little things, like what the Clarks do during the summer of 2010.
good luck out there, and enjoy the summer with Russ!
