Just when you think you can't possibly go any longer...

...you find yourself surrounded by others so inspiring that without even realzing it, your energy level bursts into overdrive! Our church family - and you all are really our family - is incredible on a level that is beyond expectations.

I have been feeling beyond exhausted, internally exhausted from the move, meds, work, etc., seeking sleep and rest in any corner at any time I can find it. But somehow working at church last night was relaxing, rejuvenating, and exhilerating.

It's abso-tively a God thing.

Aftershocks

Physcially moving this past weekend was the smoothest transition I have experienced. Pastor Ray and his whole family came (he even drove the big scary Uhaul truck so I wouldn't have to...) along with don't-know-when-he-ever-stops-to-take-a-break-Jared and Dave's aunt and uncle, Danny and Wendy (our fave relatives.) Even with all the stress of the riduculous landlord, it was unbelievably awesome. Wendy said "don't worry, we're here with you guys to the end" and they were! Blessings came in the size of these people.

At one point there were three pick-ups, two vans, two SUVs, one Uhaul, one car, and one panel truck sitting in our small cul de sac. I bet even the neigbors were impressed (and hopefully not too annoyed...)

Now, the aftershocks: Can't find shoes, clothes, soap, where to put the dishes, groceries, putting together the beds, desks, etc.

No big complaints though. We love our new home and thank God for providing this home and our beloved friends and family. We love all of you and thank you for everything. One big grill-out coming soon!
