Trying to Keep My Head Above the Water...

The new job is certainly challenging, and I'm just trying to keep up. I've been in several courts over the last week, learning the idiosyncrasies of each court and meeting so many folks it's hard to keep it all straight.

The whole "takes 25 minutes to get to work" (though it's only about 8 miles there) is an adjustment too, but it's all for the long haul and the end result.

Good news is the house in the Valley closes tomorrow, got those docs signed and Fedexed out today; God has certainly been faithful in getting that closed soon. After reviewing the settlement documents today and figuring in the real estate fees (that we would have paid even in a better market), we really didn't lose all that much in the end.

We did attend a pretty interesting church this past weekend, an Anglican church (Anglican Mission in America) where they had actual wine with communion and had some formal readings but also had two Chris Tomlin songs and Days of Elijah (Robin Mark song?). We were presently surprised; as usual, a smaller church, but this will likely do okay for the time being while we are where we are--especially since it's only 4 miles from where we live and not 20 or 25 miles!

So here's to another Saturday and hoping that sleep will come in abundance then...had too much to accomplish last weekend, so hoping that rest arrives then.
