A home at last


We found a place to live!


As many of you know whe have been in transition for a long time, but finally we will get to settle into a home of our own. We are renting a place in Cosmo City and we will move in the middle of January, now all we have to do is set up our house. . . which is equally as exhausting as finding one, but alas it will be home!


So far we are doing okay, I finally took a stab at driving which was better than I thought it would be, next I just have to drive where there are cars on the road. . . my goal is to feel comfortable driving by the time we move in, so I have a lot of work to do.


In my mind I knew there would be a lot of adjustments to my life, driving, new language and people already thinking that I speak it, new brands and foods I have never heard of, everything going a lot slower. . . but I never could have imagined what it would feel like to have everything happening at the same time. It is a whirlwind of unknowns and new experiences, so far nothing is easy, so I just have to change my attitude: my montra " Nobody told me that the road would be easy, but I don't believe He's brought me this far to leave me." I am so glad that Jesus doesn't change when the world around me is so unfamiliar.


And I am so thankful that Trevor is even keeled and takes things easily, when I let him, he really brings me out of my "tornado of crazy" and helps me to take one thing at a time :)




The last 2 weeks with Christmas and NewYears, I am missing home and the easy friendships that are so close to my heart, but again one thing at a time!


Happy New year friends!


Sending you love and blessings fo 2009!
