the story as to why i chose the verse i did for today's verse

today we had a meeting at work, in which we learned that our offices may be moving. last week they were talking remodeling, so this is kind of sudden. it's understandable, though, as our offices are downtown st. paul, so i'm sure not the cheapest. neither is parking. parking is currently costing the school over $70,000/year. which means that they're cutting that out after school ends whether we stay at this location or not. which means we'll be having to pay for parking. which will be about $1700/year. which stinks. so depending on where we go, i guess i'm happy for the move. though this does mean that we'll be losing our lunch break walks in the winter, as right now we can walk in the skyways. that just sounds way too sedentary. also, in losing the skyways, i lose the chocolate shop man who i have fallen in love with. they need to tell me if we're going somewhere with free parking so that if we do i can blow all my parking money on trips to the chocolate shop before that.
that's not the big thing, though.
the big things are that because i don't know where we'll be, and because i may have essentially gotten a $1700 pay cut, i can't move out this summer, which i was hoping to do so i wouldn't kill my father. so please pray that it's not too hard for me to tolerate him when i'm home with him all day for a couple months (my mother some, too, but mostly my dad).
and as for the immediate - as of a week ago, thing 5 was going to get an assistant. i don't know if that's still the plan because they were talking about budget cut-backs, but i had been offered the position. i told them that if i could get her to swear in blood that she wouldn't ever leave and only have babies in the summer, i'd do it, but that i'd be scared of what would replace her if she left. she and i work so well together, but i don't want to work with (and kind of under) someone i can't get along with. at least if angie were to ever leave, i can be pretty independent from the other registrar. now, though, i'm wondering what they're going to do. will they still be hiring an assistant? will they maybe hire an assistant but get rid of a registrar? what's better job security? last thursday at my year-end eval they told me i could have through this week to decide because they'll be wanting to post one or the other job next week. but the board meeting that was deciding all this was thursday night, so i don't know if things have changed. in my eval i told them that we have down time and that if they're taking some of the work that angie and i do for thing 5 away from us to have her assistant do it, we'd like to have more to do during those times. so basically i told them we're not busy enough. 
all this to say that in the next couple days i need to decide which job i want, the main factors being job security and if i'd get along with whomever may someday replace thing 5. prayers would be much appreciated.
