One Day at a Time

Sometimes it’s just one thing after another, isn’t it? We’ve been fighting with AT & T to get our internet/cable set up for a week now. We had a brief window of service on Friday and then the picture on the TV froze during the evening news and we’ve been out of business since.

Marla graciously lets me have “office hours” at her house, and thank goodness because all of our banking is done online and I’m starting to feel very disconnected from the outside world. I haven’t watched the news (or anything else, for that matter) in two weeks. And don’t even get me started on how much I’m missing the Disney channel right now.

I’m sorry that the joy we feel about our new house has been stifled by life’s little annoyances. Last week I had a breakdown and cried to Vann about missing our community in the city. I now know why moving is one of the greatest stresses in life – and it doesn’t seem to be letting up – although we’ve only been in our house for two weeks.

I am longing for a return to a “new” normal. We joined a gym and I’m going to start going this week, in the hopes that exercise will relieve the great stress I feel. Hopefully we will be online for good this week, until then, please pray for us as we navigate through the beginnings of home ownership. We plan on starting our church search next Sunday, so we’d love prayers on that front as well.

  1. Let me know if you want to visit Watermark! We usually go to the 9am service. Hang in there! What gym did you join? We're at 24HR Fitness but about to switch to Lifetime Fitness, their childcare area is amazing!

  2. Moving to a new location from an area you have enjoyed for along time is great stress. All these many years ago(age 18), I still have a loneliness for some of the friends. They have moved everywhere. So, hang in there my dear girl, it does work out. Cry when you feels like it. We love you'all. Enjoyed the weekend.
