4 Blessings and a Curse

Blessing 1)  I know that in a previous blog I had written that Carl may have felt the baby move but the more I feel this baby moving, the more I think that that was just a little gas bubble :)  BUT on the weekend, the baby was being pretty active and Carl really did feel the baby move!  Today marks 20 weeks into the pregnancy and we are getting more and more excited to meet our little girl!

Blessing 2)  Carl had his first job interview!  Everyone can breathe a sigh of relief, the interview was for a job in Vancouver :)  Carl feels the interview went well and although he doesn't have high hopes because they are looking for someone with more qualifications, it was good interview practice and gives us hope that something will come about!  We should get an answer this week as to whether he got the job or not!   

Blessing 3)  Carl is officially DONE school!  His final report came back with minimal corrections which he was able to make in a day.  He officially handed in his report this morning and will be applying for graduation status this week!

Blessing 4/Curse)  When we received notice that Carl got his report back, he made the corrections right away and saved it on a USB so he could take it to Staples to get it printed.  The next morning he went to turn the computer on and nothing happened...After taking our computer in for diagnosis, we've discovered that the LCD screen is shot and will cost over $700 to get repaired!  Sooooo, the blessing - Carl was able to save his report the day before the computer quit!  The mishap...We don't have a computer!  I'm currently on my lunch break at work writing this blog just to give you all the heads up that it might be awhile before I post again!  We are praying that we are able to save all the information from our old computer (Carl's resume, all of our pictures, etc!), which shouldn't be a problem if it is just the LCD screen that's gone! 

Now the pending question is, do we buy a new computer or go ahead with our plans to explore the East Coast?......
