Noga, noga, noga nogonnaworkhereanymore

So if you get that quote you must have seen Office Space once or twice at least. You may also be wondering why that is the title of this post. Well, it is because AMD decided they needed to cut costs. They decided the way they needed to cut costs was to cut 10% of the workforce. And you guessed it! Paul is notgonnaworkatAMDanymore. There is no rhyme or reason for who they let go. Apparently it wasn't based off of performance which is kind of stupid, but they did it and now we are trusting God to take us where He wants us to go.

So right now there are a lot of things up in the air. Will we stay or will we go? That is the question. Paul has said that he is not going to limit his job search to Austin so we could be going anywhere...in the world.

The interesting thing is, even though I have been an emotional wreck, during our Quiet Times God has really been preparing both of us for a change. We aren't sure what that looks like, but we are sure it will be exciting. So we are excited and nervous, and in need of lots of prayers. Thanks!

Keep us posted! Wow, that's crazy. We will be praying.

Everything is going to be okay. Isn't it great that I can state that and not have it just be a nice sentiment. God is in control. God is good. God is all knowing. This was not a surprise to Him. He knows exactly what He has in store for you!

That said, we will be sad if you leave Austin right when we come back...that would be lame! So, we are going to be praying that God will provide a job for Paul in Austin!
