Pastor Dave's Highlights

My 2nd grader got to go to the Indiana State Fair with his class today. He seems to have had a good time. I don't remember having field trips to the Fair as a kid, but we did go to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in 5th grade.
 
I haven't posted my own content recently with all going on with Harvey and how busy I have been. My church has been hitting financial difficulties for over a year. We had meetings, discussed it, and trimmed our budget for 2017-18. We have still been having troubles, and I voluntarily offered to make my FT position a PT position and began looking for PT jobs. I had some good prospects and called the Elders together along with our Finance Chairman and secretary/treasurer. This was Thursday night.

They unanimously decided they prefer me to be available to the church more than PT, and tapped into an Annuity we have until we make it past this. My only stress-free moments in two weeks were tending to the rabbits. Thursday night, I had my first good restful sleep in two weeks. Last night another.

I was prepared to actually look for housing and FT work. I thought I was going to have to use a new screen name of "Formerly Known As Pastor Dave" I did find out I CAN find something in the current job market, and we found a few properties to our liking. For now, I don't have to find a job or home, and I can continue being "Pastor Dave".

Now I can focus again on the world, Haha! (said in my somewhat lunatic voice)
 
I'm glad that it worked out since the new name doesn't abbreviate well - 'FNAPD' :)

Not knowing whether or not your status is permanent is never easy to adjust to.
 
glad things have worked out for the present. you know that God will always provide. sometimes the path isn't easy but its always doable.
now I have a question for you. what causes my young bucks ears to flop over like they are? have never had this happen before. I've taken most of the summer off and haven't bred and of the does but with things cooling down its about time to get started. well shoot it won't let the picture upload, i'll try again later.

yea it finally let me post the pic. buck is fine, eats good, looks good, acts good. his ears just decided to flop.
 
How old is he? You said it's the first summer this happened with him? I am leaning toward the heat, but I am sure it is just something in the cartilage. Do you show him? I know the ears have to stand correct for judging, but not sure how you get them back up. I would ask @Bunnylady
 
this is his first summer, about seven months old now. I don't show so it really doesn't matter. I've just never seen one do this before and was just curious if anyone else had.
 
not a lop cross, he is a nz/fg cross. just have never any of my bunnies do that. i'm going to cross him over some nz and palomino does now that the weather is cooling off. lost my palomino buck this summer. i'm thinking the heat and his age were just to much for him.
been meaning to ask how your mom is doing? well I hope. give her a hug for me.
