A little of this and a little of that
Ok my husband is being really boooooring right now and reading a book. No, actually I'm glad that he can do that. He's been really tired since we came back from the honeymoon. It's good to see him be able to sit and chill for a while. I can't believe it's only Tuesday. When you are alone in the house all day the days draaaaag by. Seriously, it's not like I don't have anything to do, in fact yesterday, I thought, "Wow I have everything under control, we should be unpacked in no time." However, I also got a call yesterday from a certain shipping company saying that our stuff was in Portland, OR. About an hour and a half from here, so we took off right after supper. Dad Nice helped us with unloading the boxes from the crate into our garage, and we sat down ate some cake that I baked and talked. Anyway, it was a good evening and day, but today.... well, I think I just expected to much of myself. I must of unpacked at least ten boxes, loaded the dishwasher like three times. Wash and dried dishes lots of dishes, did like two loads of laundry, cleaned and put things a way, took a walk, cleaned off a chicken for chicken noodle soup, by the middle of the day I was very tired and frustrated, even though I unpacked about ten boxes there are still another like....I dunno... thirty? I ended up in tears--a combination of feeling like we were never going to find a place for all our stuff, and probably feeling a little lonely. I know, I know it's only been like two days since Justin has gone back to work, but seriously it feels like two centuries. I am looking forward to Thursday though it's the ladies sewing circle.(It's a little scary, I have to bring a dish, YIKES!). Also last night my hubby showed me a house where some elderly people from the church live, it's like very easy walking distance from our house. I think once I get a little more comfortable with my environment and such, hopefully the days won't feel so long. I really want to treasure this time I have with my husband. It is special. More special then I could even imagine.
Anyway enough about me, I just had to let off some steam, kind of a rough day. I wanted to share one little answer to prayer. At the annointing service one thing we prayed for was for Monday's test. It was a bone marrow test, which before was very painful experience for Gary, and so he was really dreading it(apparently they drill a hole into the hip bone, and really can do nothing to numb the pain). We prayed that it would not be as painful. Last night Gary informed us that he felt very little pain during the entire ordeal. Praise the Lord!!! Thanks so much for your prayers. They are still very needed. We really won't find out the results for these tests until like next week sometime. So pray on!!! Ok I still have a lot more to share. I love and miss you all greatly, and I do mean greatly, I really can't think about it to much,or the tears they just come. I feel like I really have to be strong especially right now for Justin. I feel like what they are all going through is a whole lot worse then my own pain, so pray that I would be a godly helpmeet for my wonderful husband.

Thanks so much for the update. I am sure the Lord will help you through all the adjustments that are facing you. Keep us posted as much as you are able. Our prayer service is tonight and we will remember the request for Gary.

I'm so proud of you for going to sewing circle. I'm sure it will take awhile to get used to being alone. Love ya,
