Well, really there is not that much to update you on regarding the eminent (sp) move. John is STILL talking to the people in Iowa (General Manager for two weekly papers, Red Oak and Glenwood). Two weeks ago we went to Omaha and met one of the supervisors there for an interview. That was the third interview he had, since than he has had 2 more! I think that is insane, he does not...he says that's corperate America. Anyway, the NEXT phone call should tell us if he has it or not....basically, if they invite him to come and look at the office(s) than that will be the indication that they will offer it to him. He is about 70% sure he has it, but HE will not decide on whether to take it or not until he sees the office(s).
I'm struggling with this all. Basically, it's vice versa of how I felt when we moved here. Two years ago, my flesh did not want to come, but I KNEW, that I KNEW that I KNEW in my spirit that we were coming here. Now, my flesh wants to go, but my spririt is not at peace about it at all. I am trying so hard to have trust in John (and ultimately God) that the best decision for OUR FAMILY will be made. There are so many things that I could "get into" but I really don't want to right now....I've done it enough in my mind...and you know, it all begins IN THE MIND! Anyway, I'm blabbering now. Basically, I could deffinately use your prayers as I/we go through this. Sometimes I just want it to be all over...and for us to go HOME....our ETERNAL HOME! At least I have that to grab onto during times like these! So, yeah...we'll see what happens. I just want to seek the Lord and have a more deeper, more intimate relationship with Him.
Things have NOT slowed down, which I had hoped would happen. I am now very seriously going to majorily cut down on lots and lots of stuff. I'm running myself ragged...and it is majorily affecting my family...why, oh why....do I get myself into this postion time and time again? Haven't I learned it YET?!?!?! Anyway, I and we are craving for some serious family down time AT HOME, without company, without anything to DO, etc, etc. Tomorrow is the day I am going to get on the phone and tell people "NO!"
Did I tell you...Christian music artist, Mark Schultz, who is a native of Colby, KS (where we live) is going to be performing at our school on Friday night. I cannot wait! It is going to be so much fun! Mainly because it is an intimate audience and so there will only be about 400 people there! He is one of my FAVORITE singers and so it will be so awesome! :)
Well, I need to go for now. Love all you guys!
