Ahhh!

So many good intentions and so litttle time. I was hoping to be back on the blog train last week but with a month left in my semester, things other than school are quickly pushed to the side. My reading for fun continues to pile up, google reader entries, grow and tv shows continue to be produced. Fortunately for next week which is Washington's spring break I will have a little break from work. Here's to hoping that I can regain some sanity. One day a time....help Lord...

Home sweet home

Life is finally starting to settle down for us.....a little. Mostly everything is at least in the room it's supposed to be, internet and tv access are back, our fridge is full, and yet we still have little time to enjoy things. I think when you move you should get like a week off or something. Both Britt and I work two jobs and most nights as of late get home on average....maybe 7 or so. Craziness. Jesus has certainly been challening me to sit at his feet in the midst of all of this. It's hard but as he told Martha, "Mary has chosen what is better...." and that is something I've been challenged with these last few weeks. Letting God have his way and order my life makes things go much smoother than when I'm in the driver's seat. One day at a time-Ps. 46:10

As of Saturday morning we'll be connected back to the internet surfing, tv watching world. The former is certainly a bit more important and the latter is a bit more unnecessary but a nice treat.

New home....

So we're somewhat settled in to the new house however we have yet to have tv stuff set up nor & I think more importantly internet service. Hopefully this weekend we'll get stuff set up. Sad as it is I think I'm having withdrawals or at least see how much I depend on tv or internet.

One more.

I found one more paper that I get the opportunity to write....due in two weeks:}

No more career counseling for me!

So, my presentation went really well-it was the first time I had ever done a powerpoint presentation.....does that date me? Kind of fun though and my career counseling class in over now. So only two more classes left for the semester which translates in to: Four books, two presentations, and a paper with other various readings. Sometimes I wonder why I'm doing this and then I remember days when I use to walk 10 miles and push carts. Oh yeah.
After class I drove home to move! Saturday night we moved in to our new house in Longview. Crazy, exciting, weird, we're in a homeowner's assocation now....that's strange. We got lots done that night and then had planned to move all of Sunday as well. Well life has other ideas sometimes and we got to spend half of our day in the ER. Brittany's grandma, who is 83-84 is still with it mentally but physically is beginning to get ambushed by her body a bit. We had to take grandma in Sunday morning because Britt's mom was out of town for the weekend for a retreat. Thus we lost half a day of moving which wasn't the end of the world but did make for a busier Sunday afternoon. So now I'm sitting at school because I'm sans internet and need to write a paper. Nice to have some comments from reader land. Bye for now....I'll post house pictures later.

So I'm about to give a presentation for one of my classes.......I'll give the report.

Mr. Jones....

So apparently I still have an occasional readership.  About a month ago I was thinking of doing away with the blogging due to business.....and as others have put it, "Real life trumps blogging". Buying a house, school, eating, sleeping-these things have made blogging drop further down on the importance scale.   However a good (but short-for me) night out with friends I haven't seen for awhile made me think "huh, maybe I'll keep writing for a bit.  So if you're still reading (Mr. Jones & others) I'll keep writing.
