So it has been a couple of weeks now since we moved from AZ. It seems like it has not been that long and that it has be long at the same time. Part of me feels like we have been on vacation (since this is usually where we use our vacations time) and that everything is as it was. About a week ago I realized that this would have been a longer vacation then I would have been allowed to take. Logically I felt like it was time to head back to AZ and get back to work, but this is not what will happen. The other part of me has lots of different emotions running around. I would try to explain them but I do not think that my skills in typing would be able to convey what I what it to say.
It actually has been a pretty great couple of weeks. Don’t get me wrong I feel that it is hard living with Melissa’s parents. I am glad that it is not an extreme like in “Meet the Parents” (one of my favorite movies). There are some funny things like walking around the house in the dark and trying not to run into things. Answering the phone by saying Blanchard residence, actually that is fun because I can act like the estate butler.
I also wanted to give you an update on how we are doing. I have been doing some work outside, and Melissa has been doing work work in the house. We have both applied to be substitute teachers at the schools. I am pretty excited about this because I will be able to do what I love most which is hanging out with kids. I am also looking for some temporary work at the temp office. It is not the most luxurious positions but it will pay the bills. I am also still looking for a ministry position. I have some promising leads and some conversations coming up at the end of the week in which I am looking forward to.
If you would continue to pray for us that God will direct us and lead us to where He wants us to be. We know that with God anything is possible.
