An explanation

Michael, Templeton, and I are currently living in Charlestown with my parents. Michael's job didn't really work for us anymore. It got to a point where he was being asked to move every few weeks. In October and November he was moved from Crown Point to Iowa, Iowa to Minnesota, and the idea of him being sent to Haiti was even thrown around.

There were also a few instances where Michael was asked to (understatement of the year) stretch the truth. We didn't feel like we needed to be associated with this particular company.

We also came to realize that if Michael continued to work for this company odds were that we wouldn't be spending much time in the same state. Michael was also told he would have 1 day off for Christmas.

Bottom line: Michael left his job for our family. Typically we don't believe in leaving one job before having another, but we feel that this was the right decision. Please pray for Michael to find a job quickly, the right job, and if it is God's will for that job to be around here!
