It’s amazing how days can seem to drag on for forever and, yet, I cannot believe that it’s already November.  To quote a classic dcTalk song, “Time is ticking away….”  The time change hasn’t helped either.  With Nashville being so close to the time zone line, it already gets dark here by 5:30.  Half of the time, I’m feeling like the day is already gone and it’s time for the kids’ bedtime only to realize that it’s 6:30 and I still have a good hour or two to fill up with activities for them.

All that to say, I figured it was high time I wrote an update.  Of course, since my fickle friend has me so messed up, I’m tired and it won’t be a very long entry tonight.

There are a couple of things that I wanted to share a little bit about.  Mainly, Tony has a big interview tomorrow (Friday) afternoon at 3 p.m. CST.  About two months ago, the doors began to open quickly for Tony to pursue becoming a Chick-fil-A owner/operator.  He had started the application last fall, but with Josiah’s cancer diagnosis, it was put on the back-burner.  Now that Josiah is doing so well, Tony’s boss brought up the possibility again.  Tony & I discussed and prayed about it and felt like he needed to at least finish the application and see what God did.  Well, long story short, Tony has an interview tomorrow with the CFA head of hiring for the west coast – just an example of God’s favor in this situation.  The normal timeline they gave us would have had corporate calling Tony around Thanksgiving to set up an interview.  When God moves, He sure can be quick when it’s the right time.  We covet your prayers – for the right doors to be opened and/or shut, for wisdom and clarity… and for peace that God continues to be faithful whether we have good or bad chaos in our lives.

For now, if you’d like an update on some of Josiah’s stuff, you can go check out www.caringbridge.org/visit/josiahzapata – it’s been an eventful couple of weeks for him, too.  I’m just too brain-fried to continue writing tonight.

Thank you for your prayers and for your words of encouragement.  Hopefully, time will not slip so quickly by before I update again.
