Year in review
Well for those of you who actually check this blog out occasionally it has been a year since I have last posted anything, and for that I am really sorry. Things have been kind of different than I am use to and I think in general my life has just been kind of blah. Not to mention it is really hard to blog while I am at work and the Internet at our apartment is a crap shoot.
The past year has probably been one of the most remarkable and yet blah years I have ever had. There were times I could not believe so much was going on and yet at the same time I have seen very little happen in my own personal life that I have come the realization that I have been just coasting through life.
So here is the review of the past year:
Shortly after getting this job at the library Christi and me found a church that we could call home here in Louisville. And over the course of the past year we have became partners at Sojourn, joined a community group, seen the church attendance go up by over 400 people, helped organize the counting of the offerings, and this Sunday Christi will begin playing with the worship group on Sunday mornings.
Also, shortly after getting this job we made friends with a set of neighbors, and for about four months everything was great. But after those four months the friendship disintegrated, no need to go into details, suffice it to say that it was a learning experience for Christi and myself and a wake up call to how people respond differently to same situation. During that rough time it was amazing to see how are community group really stepped up and helped us through it.
This summer Christi and I actually got to take a vacation (our first one ever as a married couple that was longer than a weekend) with the purpose of just relaxing. We did practally nothing. Did some shopping. Spent a day at a coffee shop. Saw some movies. Ate at some pretty good chain restaraunts. In short, just took it easy without having to worry going to work the next day.
And now classes have been going for almost two months for Christi and I have been plugging away at my job. However, I feel that Christi and me are now coming out of a transitional period. I have had this feeling that something is coming are way and that we will need to step up and do it. So who knows what will be.
I do not know if I will keep this post up to date, or if I will start a new one or if it will be a year again before I post. I guess we will have to wait and see.
