One month later...

Ok, so first of all, I need to apologize for it being over a month since I've updated this thing. I forgot my password to sign it and it was a big mess trying to get it reset. Note to self: write these things down!! Anyway, so I have a lot to put on here!!

Moving date is still set for March 13th... 13 days from today!! Holy cow! I'm still not sure what I think about all that. I'm super excited to go, but still scared at the same time. But I know God is in control!!

I was in Texas just last week for about 9 days. I left on Valentines Day (since I had no other plans...) and drove straight through. I spent the week looking for jobs and a place to live. Job wise, a lot of places wanted me to apply online, including a bank called Woodforest National Bank. It's located in our Walmart in Altanta (the town right next to Queen City). I had an interview with them last Saturday and it went really well. So, now I'm just waiting to hear back from them. I'm hoping to hear something by Monday. The housing was a little more difficult. Everything is either low income and a bit scary, or brand new 3 bedroom, 2 bath for $700-750 a month, which I suppose is a great price, but still way more than what I need. So, as of right now I'm still on the hunt. I have a place I need to call back. There is a lady in town that has rental properties and she has a great little 2 bed, 1 bath available. But she was leery of renting it to someone who wasn't moved down there yet. So, I'm going to call back to her closer to the 13th and see if it's still available. In the mean time, if I dont find anything, looks like Tommy and Heather will have a roommate for a little bit. But thats ok.

Also, I wanted to let everyone who reads this and is in the DSM area, that next Saturday March 7th from 1-4pm, I'm having a Going Away Party at Berean Assembly of God. It's a come and go as you please type of thing, but I would love to see as many people as I can before I go. So please come if you can. Berean is located on E University across from White Water. When you come, just go to the back parking lot and come in the south doors. It will be just to your left when you get in the door. Anyway, I hope you can all come!

Well, there's not much more to report. I'll keep everyone posted on any new updates, now that I can post things on here again!! Love to you all!
