To Do List

Right now I should be sleeping.  I've vowed to be up and exercising no later than 6:30 in the morning, which is half an hour later than I'd like for it to be.  Well....no.  I guess technically it isn't later than I would like it to be, but rather, later than it ought to be.  Anyway....

I sat down at my computer to try to do a couple of the things on my To Do List before heading to bed, when I got distracted reading blogs and remembered.....Oh YEAH!  I have a blog too!

I'd love to be clever, or witty, or sentimental, or anything really....  The only thing I have on my mind is that To Do List and how it continues to grow. I'm not an all the time kind of list maker, but I take spurts where I do, or when it becomes a must. This week seems to be one of those times. Each day I've been making a list. The problem is, some of the tasks are either too big to fit in, or I simply avoid them.  So consequently.... They keep getting transferred.  I can at least be happy for the fact that some of the things get checked off.

Maybe no one could care less....but if nothing else, someday I can look back and see what exactly was on that list that I was talking about.

-Till garden (I'm thinking this is a task to be delegated to Craig and Josh for Saturday.)
-Get boy's clothes down from attic (to be sorted and switched out for season).
-Address postcards about business (There are 500 of them...)
-Finish taxes (***shudder***) I will be so glad to get this one checked off!
-Next week's lesson plans
-Register for Homeschool Convention
-Check on accompaniment track for awesome song heard on the radio. (Wait, I DID do that one! Unfortunately, there isn't one...)

Add to that all the regular stuff, and well, you can see why I should head to bed now.

Now what else is it I'm forgetting.....?

New Business

I have been meaning for quite some time to write a post about our new business. I am sure that most of you are aware of it, but we are always finding people who are not up to date on our latest news. 

So, back in October, Craig left his job at ServiceMaster and began a joint venture with his dad, Terry.  CaTO Disaster Solutions offers many different services including, but not limited to, fire and flood restoration, carpet and tile cleaning, all types of floor care, and trauma cleanup. 

Like any new business, start up is a challenge, but we are thankful for God's provision everyday. He continues to amaze us with His faithfulness. Craig absolutely loves this type of work.  He has been in the industry, off and on, for more than 15 years, and takes great pride in doing a job well. It is kind of a joke between us that anytime we walk into a building I'm looking forward and he's looking down. He always notices floors, and I often will hear him gasp and comment on the beauty of a shiny polished floor. Don't worry though....he doesn't use equal drama when pointing out dirty floors.  Actually, he likes seeing those just as much, if not more, because it's like his canvas! A really dirty floor that he can make clean makes him happy. :)

I am thankful and humbled that Craig is able to do what he loves for a living.

If you are interested in learning how you can hire our services, you can comment or email me, and I would be glad to give you more info. We do covet your prayers that the Lord would establish this business to His Glory. Thanks.
