Scott Update

Since this blog is entitled "Team McIntyre," I thought, perhaps, I could let you all know how my fabulous husband is doing these days. One word: great! Scott finished the summer quarter at Metro just over a week ago and.....drum roll please......he earned an "A" in Algebra class! Praise the Lord! All that studying was worth it! That officially ends his love/hate relationship with math classes (at least for this degree), so now he's on to more fun, creative things.

This week is Scott's last week at FastTrak Freight Services. He's been driving a delivery truck for them since January, but has signed up for five classes this fall at Metro, so he's going to focus on school fulltime, which he's never been able to do. Uncle Sam is being very generous with his MGI bill, so between that and the tuition reimbursement he'll receive from the Nebraska Air National Guard (that he just joined this week), we'll be a-ok at the McIntyre household. God is so good in how He provides for us.

Part of the National Guard committment will invovled Scott going to Texas for about 2 1/2 months, at some point, for additional training. We're hoping that can be in late spring or late summer so I can spend part of the time in Texas with him over my summer vacation. I've learned in last few years, though, to hold all plans loosely, so we shall see how that all transpires.

Another requirement of the National Guard is passing the physical fitness test. My husband is a fit guy, but running is not on his list of "desirable exercises," so if you see us running in the neighborhood, give us a friendly good luck honk...Scott will get a kick out of that. We'll also be having mini ab and push-up workouts. Hopefully I'll be more buff at the end of all this, too!

So there you have it, the latest on Scott. Join us again next time...
