Well I have been meaning to make a new post for a couple weeks, but my time has been very small since I am currently working in El Paso for one of our clients helping on site for a Turnaround. It is great to be back here and be working with some of the great people at Western Refining. However, the long hours are making it tough to take care of personal things and Ironman training. I did drive here so I could bring my bike and trainer. I am now a member of the El Paso YMCA and I also now know what it is like to run through a dust storm....not fun! Here is a picture of me climbing through a tower for your viewing pleasure. This is me inside a Stripping tower inspecting the internals. For those of you who don't understand what it is I'm doing when I am working a turnaround, here you go. Long hours and a lot of climbing and exhausting and dirty work. It is a nice change of pace for a while from our normal office design work at MPEC.
I am very excited to say since I sent out my letter, I have a lot of response!
My current total pledged is already up to $2700!!!!! A big thank you to those who have pledged financially or committed to pray for Little Eden and myself through the rest of this journey.
For those of you back in Houston, I miss you all very much and look forward to being done with this turnaround and being back to the normal. For everyone else, I miss you as well, and we need to catch up. I will continue to push myself train through the long hours and also keep up with my reading and prayer. I have so much more I would like to add, but it is only 8:30 and it is already time for me to go to bed to be ready to go to work at 4:30 am tomorrow morning!
