here i am!

and so here i am for my semi-irregular blog update.

busy, busy, busy. worked with a friend at a clothing bank, folding, steaming clothes, putting clothes out on the racks.

tomorrow austin goes in for his last reconstructive surgery. his last will be having the rods and pins in his arm and hand removed. we're getting there!

today i also bought the remaining fabric for the church in el rosario to finish their pew recovering. i bought enough material for them to finish the pews and the chairs that they have in front of the church. it is an olive green, which sounds horrible, but it actually goes well with the other fabric. it should hide the dust and wear well. i bought 13 folding chairs from craigslist and am hoping that someone will have a shop vac they can donate. i have 3 wrought iron coverings for the kitchen windows, haven't been able to get anything for the church. don't really feel too impressed to make that my burden either. it's good enough for now.

still don't know when we will get back down there. it will depend on when little gavin arrives and how megan is doing with it all. they are our priorities at this point. if we don't make it down there on the 25th, i will make it down as soon as i can.

oh, before i forget, remember that key i was having made? they did it! now i'm just keeping my fingers crossed that it will work on all the cargo compartments. if norris is able to fix the last few gotchas, we'll be out in the desert this time next week riding dirtbikes, drinking cervezas and having a grand old time. if the rv is not ready, we'll head down to baja. either way we'll be having some fun!!!

that's it for now.
