What's around the corner...

in this fantastic journey of our summer is still yet to be determined. Tomorrow we sign a contract for a 1 year lease, and then we begin the process of moving from one house to another. I know that it's just a house, but still...I'm moving again. About two years ago I had settled with the fact that I would be living in our now previous home at least until the kids graduate high school. Now we are looking at a whole new world of possibilities. I am so thankful for so many of my friends who have been encouraging. I did not realize how people I know have gone through a similar situation such as the one that my family and I are going through.   The closer I get to moving day the more anxious I am becoming. It's like someone hit my "Hurry Up" button. I don't want miss anything that God is doing in my life and in my family's life, but I am ready for this chapter to be done.  I just have to keep telling myself to live in THIS moment and not do the ...

The Road has...

lead us to a new direction in our lives. I had to go back and read my posts from a couple of weeks ago. I could not remember where I left off, and I needed to make sure that I didn't repeat myself. First let me say that I apologize for not posting last week. I did keep a running status via Facebook, but I also know that is not the same thing. So where I left off... We stayed at the hotel until July 9th, and then we had to say good-bye to our new friends at the Comfort Suites. I will tell you, that I enjoyed our stay there. Everyone was so gracious. I am just so overwhelmed with gratefulness by people that I know and didn't know well who helped us out every night. Our family enjoyed many home cooked meals while we were at the hotel. I don't know if I'll ever be able to express how I feel. Loved. That is a good word to start with. Loved. We've decided that as soon as we get moved into the new home, that we are invited each person that took the time to bring u...

Progress report

Very quickly on the past 10 days (I promise a better blog later in the week) I am now 40! Yeah, that's right the BIG 4-0! I am so thankful to have made it this far! God is good. I celebrated my 40th with a "psudo" surprise party. It was so wonderful to just have a "normal" day with all of the uncertainty that is currently our normal life. As of today, we are still in a hotel. When Tropical Storm Debbie decided to hit us, she decided to flood (only a little, but enough) my den. Our carpet was soaked 2 feet in. So, now we not only have a homeowners claim in, but also a flood claim in. We only have 1 bid in for the septic. It does not ease my mind when I saw the dollar amount. All I do know is that God has a MUCH bigger plan than what I can see. So one day at a time it is. We have been so blessed by friends and family who have brought us dinner or have had us over for dinner. It has been overwhelming the neighborly love that we have been show...
