To The Work
We drove back to Stockton yesterday, eager to monitor the work progress by contractors on our house. It was a relief to see that work had been done in our absence. We scheduled some texture and plumbing work for next week and dove in to some much needed yard work.
After driving 6 hours we had some energy to expend. We only worked for about 5 hours but total productivity might have equaled a full day’s work.
It reminded me of the first day of work on our Mexico Mission trips. Driving to the airport, flying to Long Beach, driving to Ensenada seems to take forever. The moment we hit the ground we are ready to strap on tool belts and get to work. We seem to get a lot of work done the first afternoon / night.
You wake up the next day and are very sore.

It was good to see you guys at Greg’s but we missed you at P-dine. Don’t work too hard in the yard.
Missed you very much this week. I actually resorted to going to classes! AND IT’S ALL YOUR FAULT.
Glad you’re home and things are going well.
Save some yard work for me in ‘08.
Glad to be able to spend some time with you at Long Beach. It was great to meet your family. Tell “George” I said hello and the same for Madison. I enjoyed our partial game of “pony” at Greg’s. She really made me mis my kids. We are praying for Beth’s family in their loss. I pray too that things go well with your house.
When I stumble out of the car after a long trip, the LAST thing I want to do is work.
