Would appreciate work-related prayers, please. I mentioned recently about some work Gary had to bid on, and one being a set of custom bookcases. Have really taken for granted that he'd get this job, since this particular designer always uses Gary and while he tends to bicker about the bid prices, we get the work. Well, he's hemming and hawing about this bid and says he's going to ask a cabinet-maker he uses to bid as well, saying Gary's too high. So. While I appreciate that the cabinet-maker also has to make a living, it'd be wonderful if the bid came to us. We need the work SO badly. Gary will re-work his bid (also known as making it lower) and present it to the designer today. This is a designer who also works overnights at FedEx to make ends meet. There are several of us, it seems.
And, if you please, a bid for a table will be shared with a client today as well. Different designer, different client. The table he's offered a price to build is shown here...it's the darling, low cocktail table, and the only photo we can find online. The designer is Frances Elkins, whose brother was David Adler, a famous architect back in the early 1900's (I just love this sort of stuff).
Anyway, your prayers are certainly coveted. Will update when I know something.
