Bahd luck.<\/p>\n<p>After our lunch, Paul, Jesse and I went over to Northchase apartments to talk with the new Manager and Ast.

We had a good talk, but I&#8217;m never particularly optimistic.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s like I was telling Paul, it&#8217;s all about timing.  God&#8217;s in control. Period.<\/p>\n<p>J and I went to Walmart to pick up supplies for the mission.<\/p>\n<p>Weird, scalloped shaped clouds.  They produced light sleet on my windshield.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com\/Partners\/p\/IMG4662\/753351394_C5Zw4-M.jpg\" alt=\"c\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com\/Partners\/p\/IMG4655\/753351502_bN9Pr-M.jpg\" alt=\"s\" \/><br \/>\nThen over to Azalea to see how the kids are doing.  Did I mention that the second Xbox we took there got ripped off?  I&#8217;m still hoping that one of the older guys took it with them and will bring it back, but I&#8217;m not holding my breath.  Fortunately, the Nintendo 64 works, now that we got the pieces it was missing (that were also stolen.)<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com\/Partners\/p\/IMG4658\/753351336_wguYF-M.jpg\" alt=\"m\" \/><br \/>\nOh well.  That&#8217;s why the call it missions.  If it was easy, everyone would do it.<\/p>\n<p>Had some sad news today.  My camera developed a speck on the lens.  I took it over to Best Buy and they&#8217;re going to fix it.  I had a warranty.  But it&#8217;ll take 2 weeks.  I looked at every other camera there and all the new &#8220;better&#8221; models are not as good.  They may have more megapixels, but the viewscreen is much smaller.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes I really hate these &#8220;upgrades.&#8221;  When they make a really good model, why do they feel they HAVE to change it?<\/p>\n<p>Back to the archiving project.  I&#8217;m on 2006.<\/p>\n<p>Take a look at this wacky car.  It looks like it was made out of tupperware.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com\/Partners\/p\/IMG4653\/753351800_EiyL6-M.jpg\" alt=\"c\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Met up with Ian &#038; Ruthie North, Bayo Otiti and Paul Reynolds today for lunch.
