Greetings & Salutations Faithful Stapleton Blog Readers!
As you can tell with the gaps in my posts the Stapleton Mansion remodel has been keeping me busy. I have also had a lot of out of town nights at work, and I found out on Friday I have to go to Texas for a week in October. Then when you throw in the fact that Jessica had bronchitis (Petey stayed in the bed with her for 1 ½ weeks straight, boy did she get the axe murder look when she went back to work), along with the remodel moving slower than my crack brain had planned we have had to put off moving. We are going to stay in the town house another month to allow the remodel to be completely finished before we move in. This would mean a move in date of late in October but I have set no dates yet. A lot has happened since my last entry all the walls are up and the drywall hung downstairs. The upstairs is trimmed out and almost fully painted, & we have ordered a Kitchen from Chandlers and that is just at the house.
At church we have begun our 40 Days of Community campaign for which I created a website. Speaking of websites I have been getting pretty good at building them lately I have recently begun an online sermon archive for the church called PRBC Media it’s linked to the church’s home page. This site is streaming baby! I have even figured out how to stream video but have not got the chance to use it yet. What was I talking about oh yeah the campaign Jess & I are leading a small group of middle school girls on Sunday nights for the duration of the campaign, we had our first meeting tonight. This weekend Jess & I went to see Beth Moore at the Charleston Civic Center. That was a great time, yes Beth Moore is a women’s bible study leader but I and some other men from church went to it with their wives I have labeled us “trophy husbandsâ€. But her studies are really good and thought provoking; Jess & I have been working on one at home together. While we were at the conference Jess, myself, and 2 other couples were asked to go up on stages to speak about what we loved most about our wives. So in front of 11,000 people I got on the microphone declared my love for my wife. Needless to say got some brownie points from telling the truth for once!
Well wish I had some more to talk about but I can sum up the time since my last entry this way. I have been at church, remodeling, working, or sleeping. I hope this entry finds everyone well catch ya later.
