The last couple weeks have been very interesting. Not only has the economy turned sharply south, but Wall Street is falling apart. No matter the financial calamity, I am pretty peaceful. I know that God is going to take care of us. He hasn’t set up this ministry to collapse just yet. It may be a little tighter around here, but things will be ok.
I am not necessarily opposed to change, I just want to know exactly why change should occur. I am against progress for progress’ sake. Why? Because I am fundamentally against needless change. The next few months are going to be challenging, because we are up for some big change. Some change I understand and support, others I am sure will not be easy to accept. I have learned a system, and lived it for four years. A new system is about to put into place, and I’m sure I am going to be quite frustrated at times. I know that all the changes will be for the betterment of the ministry, yet I am comfortable with the way things are. I know, it’s when you get comfortable that you become stagnant, but I am still having a hard time with the thought of some of the oldest systems in place being replaced. In hindsight, I’m am positive that I will see the benefits, yet in foresight, I am a little cloudy. Not to worry, I will make it. I will charge through the fray, and succeed in accepting the inevitable. I just keep in mind, “It’s all for the glory of God.”
On Monday I finally finished setting up m new apartment. I have lived there for three weeks. Sad that it took so long? Yes. Do I care? No. I moved upstairs and two apartments over. I am now directly over Tim and Rachel, and beside a shade giving tree. I haven’t lived above anyone since JB moved in 2005. My bedroom floor is ridiculously squeaky. Unfortunately, it is directly over T&R’s bedroom. I guess they will get over it, if they haven’t already. My carpets are no longer stained red around the edges. I’m not really sure how that happened. I also don’t have a hill in my kitchen floor. Its nice to be able to leave my windows open without fear of break-ins or death. My cat likes it there. She seems much happier. Thank you to everyone who helped me- Brent, Crissy, Abi, TJ and Cory. You are greatly appreciated and are heroes.
The thing I hate about moving is getting used to the shower taps. In my old apartment I could set the water to the perfect setting while doing anything in the world, including writing a 38 page thesis on bio-mechanics. In this apartment, I haven’t quite gotten it yet. I either burn myself or freeze. Not the best way to start the day.
After waiting over a year and a half, I have finally gotten a DVR. I am very excited. I can now record X-Men every night. I loved that show when I was a kid. I can also record Survivor and the Amazing Race so that I can watch it even if Crissy is unavailable. Or random documentaries on the History Channel.
