Job Update

Just to let everyone know, Kerri got offered the job at Sylvan Learning Center and she starts at the beginning of December! Thank you so much for your prayers! She is also looking for either another part time job or a full time job during the day because substitute teaching is not working out so well. So, if you could keep that in your prayers as well we would greatly appreciate it!

Today we're going to head to the mall and just hang out for a while. Not much to do when you're poor so we're just going to window shop and get out of the apartment for a while. Then at 6 pm tonight we're going to watch Iowa beat Minnesota in their final Big Ten season game! It should be a good game!

Kerri had an interview over the phone last night to be a tutor at the Sylvan Learning Center in Eagan. It went very well and they asked her to come in this morning to see the facility. If it all works out she will be working part time Monday through Friday from 3:30pm - 8:30pm. They will let her still substitute during the day too. Hopefully she'll have good news about the job by tonight!


Also, in the land of Scott, I purchased a depth finder last night that I'll use for ice fishing! I got a really good deal on it and it works well. I can't wait for the lakes to freeze and I can sit out on a bucket all day long looking into a black hole in the ice! I know...sounds fun! Well, I love it and yes, it will be fun.

Prayer Request

Hey Everyone,

Kerri applied for a part-time teaching position that will last for the rest of the year. It would be awesome if she could get it because substitute teaching isn't going well. There just aren't a whole lot of substitute positions available. Getting this job would be great not only financially but also for Kerri's teaching career. The school is also located in Eagan so she wouldn't have to travel far anymore. Please keep her in your prayers as this would be a great blessing!
So this past weekend was very long...but good. I (Scott) played guitar Saturday morning for the leadership seminar at church and then again for the Saturday evening service. Then on Sunday I played guitar for both morning services. By the time Kerri and I got home from church we were both exhausted and took about a 3 hour nap. We both felt like we were on drugs when we woke up. It was not too fun.

Saturday night, however, we went over to Jimmy and Amie's house for dinner. We had a blast hanging out with them! We played SceneIt! and tennis and bowling on their Wii. Kerri and I will have to "invest" in a Wii someday so we can keep up with everyone in our small group (since it's one of those hidden requirements to be in the group without getting harassed).

Kerri's making cheese quesedillas and peas for dinner, a lovely combo! It's the best we can do right now because we're po (money's so tight that I cannot even afford to spell poor). Off to dinner I go!!!
