Someday...

My thoughts on a "Someday"

Someday I will do this blogging thing right
Someday I will have kids, which will give me an excuse to do this blog thing right
Someday I will have a house of my own, with my colors
Someday I will have all my stupid loans paid off
Someday when those loans are paid off I might not have to work so i can stay home with those "Someday kids" and work on this blogging thing
Someday I will take a photography class
Someday I will have the perfect hairdresser
Someday I will not have a craving for caffeine, so the zits go away with the headaches

Lastly...Someday all that will not matter because I will be in heaven.

Week two in Muncie

So Josh thought my last post was negative, I thought I did pretty good! This week is a little different. I myself don't have as much to do so I am spending a lot of time alone. Which really isn't bad, I am doing lots of reading!

We go out tomorrow for day two of house hunting! We have narrowed the search and it is coming down to the important things! Which has bigger closets, which one needs bigger repairs sooner? Is the kitchen doable? How close is it to J's work? etc We are spending time doing pros and cons and questions to ask the realtor! I can say that watching a lot of HGTV is paying off! I am not a complete dummy going into this! Plus Josh sees a the man's perspective which is nice because well i am not a man!

Josh started week two and already loves it! He still feels under qualified, but honestly he has a lot more under his belt then the last guy so I am not worried! He is very organized which helps! He is coming home for dinner so no extra long hours...yet!! He is leading two small groups with different topics. Plus he has the Praise band and is preaching twice this next semester! He is a man of many talents!

This move has been tough but when God shows you over and over again why he wants us here it makes it a little easier. Just knowing that Josh is learning a lot, I have been to a women's night at a church and we are comfortable with the staff just shows Gods love. We are both getting out of our comfort zone. But seeing and hearing new things.

So for all you family members who may be worried about us, don't be we are in God's hands. We have trusted him thus far and have no intention of stopping!

Muncie Indiana

Well we are on day two in Muncie! We made it here safely. We got to the campus house and unloaded the truck and then walked everything up three flights of stairs. With no air conditioner! Though we aren't thrilled with the bed we are using right now we were able to get to bed early and slept hard. 

Ball State University has a gorgeous campus. I haven't been to a lot of it yet but we are going to walk it tonight. But if there isn't a building there are trees. The campus is huge, with 20,000 students, this place needs to have buildings to put them! Get this in the student center there is a bowling alley! Josh and I were very excited about that.

I have now wondered around Muncie by myself, my gps doesn't even work out here! I got us a bank account, car insurance and a meeting setup to get pre-approved for a house! Amos hates the apartment life already! So many stairs, but we have taken several walks already. He loves all the new smells and the trillion little chipmunks that are all over the place.

So far I haven't gotten home sick but give me more time! Probably when I really start hating the apartment and the stupid stairs! Or maybe with Josh working full time and me well not working! But right now we re enjoying the new place. No happy hour at sonic here though!
