Long over due Update

Howdy all!

I know it has been awhile since I have blogged; actually I have not blogged since before we moved to our new digs. For the most part we are settling in. Most of our boxes are unpacked. Still have a few here and a handful at Christi's folk's house. It is definitely different being here in Louisville so close to downtown, we are only a handful of miles away from the skyscrapers. But with all the hills and trees in the area it is pretty much impossible to see them. The campus is gorgeous, sort of like a mini Miami. And while the people may dress even more preppy here, it is because of the dress code. And it is a total switch to be in a place where almost no girls wear shorts or mini skirts and t-shirts of some sort with normal collars. That is very pleasant switch to what I am seeing.

The apartment that we are now living in is a huge step up from what we are use to living in, but it seems to have a very cliquish atmosphere. It is not completely cliquish, but it is rare to somebody who does not have kids hanging out with a couple that does have kids. The singles always seem to be always going out. And the older couples, empty nesters, seem to hang out with each other when they are not hitting the books. That leaves pretty much just us kid-less married couples to hang out with other kid-less married couples, and most of them have taken up residence in the older Springdale apartments at the other end of campus or they live off campus. If we did not have such a cool set neighbors, newlyweds, I think I would feel completely cut-off. But we are still settling in and I think we meet more people as the year goes on.

And for those of you who are praying for me to find a job. Please keep doing so. I have some leads, but most of the jobs I was going for on campus have dried up. I still have two positions that I am trying for, and God willing I will get one of them. But there will be no info on those jobs till sometime next week. Also, if you could tack onto your prayers about me possibly starting up classes here at seminary, I am thinking about possibly going for a degree as well. A job at seminary would allow me to work around classes and save on gas money.

To all who read this, I miss you terribly. You are in my prayers and thoughts.
