Had A Bad Day

A couple that we’ve been friends with have been having trouble.  Big time marital trouble.  We’ve made ourselves available to this couple to listen, to share, and to just encourage them.  If my marriage could survive then surely their’s could.  It’s a whole long story but sufficed to say – there have been years of issues [...]

Changing Churches

After six months of attending a church here, we decided it was not a good fit for us and decided to leave.  It was very hard…I struggled a LOT with the decision, my husband and I prayed and talked at length for many hours.  I cried a lot.  I felt sadness, disappointment, and a sense [...]

House News!

So after our trip to Georgia for Christmas we came home to our tiny condo.  It was extra small after being in my mom’s 4,000 sq foot house (it’s huge…what on earth would anyone need all that space for?!?).  So we called a mover just to get a quote on moving our big furniture and [...]

I Miss My Life

I began to cry and soon was completely inconsolable….  I was just devastated.  [...]

Hubby is Here!!!

My husband arrived back here last week – it was a very long drive but we’re happy he’s home…

Saying Goodbye

I spent the last week saying goodbye to my friends in Washington – it was so hard.  My friends took me to dinner and a movie and my boss took me to lunch.  I had friends come to my husband’s retirement ceremony and it was wonderful to see them but hard to say goodbyes.  I [...]

Packing…

I’ve known for a year that we would be moving.  But now we’re down to less than 3 weeks until we go and I am starting to freak out a little bit.  I know it’s a done deal, we have the moving truck reserved, we have a tenative closing date for our house, we have [...]
