ready to go

It doesn't seem to matter how much we take out of 10 Alden Ave. there's always something left. I wish my checking account would work that way. We load up a box of stuff and take it to the RV to put away and even though it seems there is no space left there, we make it disappear. At least that was working, but now we seem to have reached the saturation point. We have stuff everywhere in the RV and can't seem to get it stored. And... there's still some stuff in the Alden Ave kitchen. If they would just give us a closing date we could play Anitarae's game of "just give me ten panic stricken minutes and I can be ready." We are tired of playing this current game and ready to move on to a new life. Hopefully a life of simplicity and purpose.

Yesterday, I helped Lee load up and cart away all of lmy shop tools. I'm glad he bought them because I want to help him get ahead, but I felt a loss for sure. Then Doug came over and we loaded up the TV. Carrying that go out the door had a real feeling of finality. I helped Doug set it up at his house then we went to The Red Rooster for supper. He and I have had some good times going to supper and to movies. I'll miss that, too.

Well, it's Sunday morning and we are camped outside the Nazarene church and soon we'll go in through the kitchen door and go to church. How's that for wierdness. We feel really blessed to have this campground. It's convenient and comfortable.

Lee and his family have promised to come to church this morning. I hope they do. They need the Lord in their lives. They have made great progress, but without God it's not complete and it's not worth anything when you realize how long eternity is. I believe there is a heaven and hell and I believe the Bible. Nothing in our culture has stood up to the test of time like the Bible has. I wish everyone could accept what Christ has done for us. Why is it so difficult?
