Life in General

So it's a Friday afternoon and I'm anticipating the weekend! I don't really have any big plans, and that is a nice change. I feel like we've been on the go for the past few weeks non-stop. I guess that is what happens when you work all week and have to cram the errands for two days. I'm looking forward to the chance to relax and not have a schedule to stick to for the day.

As far as life goes for Grant and I, there aren't any big changes. We're still waiting for Grant to finally get to days, but it looks like it is going to be closer to July before he finally gets there. He's going to be working by himself at night until then, so please be praying for patience and endurance for him as I am sure he will be very stressed out!

Work has been going well for me. I still like my job and my hours...of course there are those times when I wonder how the heck I ended up as an accountant, but those moments pass and I find myself enjoying my job more and more everyday. I am beginning to search for outlets outside of work where I can help people more. I feel like I have a calling to do something more...I am just searching for what that is in particular. I'm sure that God will lead me to it, I just have to learn that my ideas of what he wants me to do may not be exactly what he has in mind.

I've been trying to think of ideas for vacations, as I can tell that we are starting to get the itch for one. It's amazing how necessary having some time off away from work can be for a couple. I mean we see each other everyday, but sometimes it seems like a routine develops and it's good to get away and reconnect away from all of the issues and sometimes concerns of everyday life. I went out with a friend for lunch yesterday and she was telling me all about her recent vacation to Australia, Fiji, and New Zealand!! While I know we can't afford to go there...it has definitely put the itch in me and I find myself searching for vacation ideas more and more! :-)

Until next time...
