Adjusting...

Life has slowly been returning to normal for Megan and I since we got back from Ireland earlier this week. Here's what's currently going on with us:

* Megan is working quite a bit over the next few days (since Wednesday night she is scheduled to work 6 out of 7 nights...). If you think about it, pray for her. Those twelve hour shifts can be quite overwhelming when there are that many of them at one time.

* I have come down with some kind of cold. My throat hurts and my ears are kind of goofed up. This sure made worship practice last night a lot of fun. I hope I get better soon.

* We leave July 31 for a five day trip to NYC. We're meeting Megan's parents who are flying in from the Chicago area. This should be a lot of fun!

* Speaking of NYC...anyone have any tips on how to get cheap Broadway show tickets?

* It looks like I am going to be working some hours with RTS Virtual campus this fall. Since this upcoming semester will be a bit easier than what I am used to, I have been thinking about picking up some hours somewhere. I've been praying about it lately and then last week my buddy Dave (who works for RTS Virtual) gave me the head's up about the position. The job is a good fit for me and I can get at least 8 hours a week in (mostly on Friday). This should help with all the recent unexpected bills!

* I am still trying to finish up a couple of summer projects for Uptown Church as well as get these classes done. Time is slipping away fast...

* We've added a couple of trips to the fall/winter. We'll be in Southern Illinois over Labor Day weekend for Megan's father's wedding and in the Chicago area the first weekend of December for Megan's sister's wedding. If any of you Illinois people want to hang out and catch up a bit let us know.

That's all I can think of right now. Stay tuned for some more reflections from our week in Ireland we are working on getting done.

Hey Dan, we've had success at the TKTS booth (http://www.tdf.org/tdf_servicepage.aspx?id=56). We also have a Mini Rough Guide book and a couple of maps to lend you if we see you before you go. - Eric
