i'm working right up until we move so that i can make all the money i can. i've been working more nights and i had forgotten how much i like the dinner shift. lunch is kinda boring and people are in such a hurry to get in and get out that they either ignore me or are just plain rude. not everyone, but enough to make it not so much fun for me. plus, for some reason, people don't tip as much at lunch. crazy, but true. it's not even that they spend less either. i haven't quite figured that out yet. so anyway, i'm enjoying being back on dinner shifts. more money + more relaxed people + time-flying-by-quicker = happier stephy!
we have already, almost, secured an apartment to live in. we're waiting on the application process. i'm not foreseeing any bumps there, so hopefully we'll be living right down the road from the church. we're very excited about being able to walk or ride our bikes to church. plus we'll be right across the street from my bro and sis-in-law. that will be nice. i've missed them so much this last year.
so...in the next THREE weeks, we have to pack, finish getting everything here squared away, pack, go to homecoming at TNU the first weekend in november, pack, give away a bunch of stuff we don't need, find a washer/dryer, couch, tv stand, etc, and did i say pack?
ahhhh...it's all so amazingly wonderful. really, it is! i couldn't have imagined something better working out for us. it's awesome how everything has just fallen in place. for so long we were so frustrated because we were so eager and ready to be serving in the church. but it was definitely worth the wait. i know that God is going to continue to do incredible things in brunswick and i'm so excited to be a part of that.
hopefully jonah can withstand all the traveling we're about to embark upon. YIKES! he's a good kid though. i'm sure he'll be marvelous!
speaking of that crazy kid...
yes, he does have my cheeks, but he also has a banana shoved in his mouth!
