We’re closing on our house this coming Thursday. We’re without a residence for 6 days. Thanks dad for putting us up for the week. Our possessions will be in boxes. Thanks lil’ sis’ for helping pack today. We should be, as long as the paperwork continues to fall into place, moving into our new house July 2nd or 3rd. Thanks sweet wife for being patient and trusting me though a stressful and overwhelming moving process. I got to sleep till 7:30 am yesterday. Thanks son for allowing me to.

Neither sale is final but we have a contract to sell our house and contract to buy another… finally. So we’re moving out of Greenville, NC and moving into Apex, NC.

I’m thankful for God’s timing in this whole process. I’ve once again been humbled not having things come together as I would have chosen them to happen. It’s a true reminder that I am not in control as I reflect on the process we’ve gone through to get to this point. It’s also nice to be reminded that things could still fall through and that if they do it’s what God has in store for us.

So tomorrow we visit the last church on our list in our search for a new fellowship, continue the journey of paperwork we began today and get ready to start the magnificent task of packing our house in preparation to move in two weeks.

Yesterday our house was surrounded by a cloud of smoke from the North Carolina wild fires. On my way to work this morning I drove through thick and thin areas but never got out of the smoke. Since the smoke arrived any time I go outside my clothes smell like it. This image was forwarded to me this morning. Not sure the validity of it, but from what I can tell it seems to be accurate. Pretty wild image to process.

So Fedora 9 was released yesterday. I’ve been running it for a couple weeks on my laptop at work, and also for a couple weeks on my MythTV machine… kinda. I had the os installed but never finished setting up MythTV. So I finished the other night. In the process of wiping the box clean I also wiped out my photo gallery… kinda. I had it all backed up but when I tried to restore it things didn’t go quite right. So I’m reimporting all my photos back in to the gallery so I can add the new ones I’ve been desperatly wanting to add. I think I may just use one of the new ones as a background for the site too… we’ll see. Anyways site is back up. I posted the link in the links to the left… kinda. Oh that one I really did.

Today at lunch we heard loud distorted eminem. Then we saw this guy… he was singing (rapping?) along and doing a one armed robot thing like rappers do when they sing (rap?). Too good not to get a picture. Then my boss suggested I submit it to failblog.org. That’s where the iPod FAIL comes in. Pretty funny site, check it out. I’ll let you know if it gets on failblog.org.
