  • MOVIN’ ON UP… ER SOUTH
    We did it.  After the wedding Rach and I will reside in Toccoa.  She has a good job (that provides insurance) down there so having her quit her job didn’t seem the bright thing to do, and I need a break from schooling… so I will work while she goes back to get her Masters of Arts in Teaching at Piedmont College that’s just down the road.  Thankfully Toccoa isn’t expensive and finding a place seems pretty easy.  Never thought I’d be moving back there, we’ll see how it goes.  Things can always change, right?  Right.

    NOBODY CALLS ME CHICKEN
    Saturday was my grandmother’s birthday so along with some Jan Karon books that she enjoys Rachel and I also presented her a framed picture of us dressed in our orange for the Clemson Tigers/South Carolina Gamecocks football game.  I think she liked it, the first phrase out of her mouth, “Oh look, you’re choking your chicken!”  Grannies say the darnedest things.

    …a [chicken] pox on both your houses!”

    That’s all for now.

  • HAIKU FRIDAY

    Polyjuice potions,
    You-know-who is back again.
    Harry saves the day!

    Mom and dad are down to visit.  All is well… great day of work 10 hours.  I’m going to sleep now.  G’night all.

  • BURNING
    I got home from work and I am pooped.  I can not be thankful enough for my job especially when pay day is tomorrow.  I enjoy working for GeoTrack as I get to be outdoors, working with my hands and yet I know that my time working there will soon come to an end.  Trying to study for A&P, work, planning a wedding and life thereafter has been taking its toll on me.  My last two tests have been not so great, passable, but not so great.  With great reluctance I fetched a withdrawal form for my two computer classes that I have enjoyed so much.  Both professors have been understanding and sympathetic… coming from a community college, that really says tons. 

    Working outside gives one plenty to reflect and think about life… if Life is a street, why do I feel like I am stuck in a cul-de-sac?  God mystifies me.  Rachel and I have talked about some future plans for down the road but I do not want to share them now.  We’ll see what God does.  So until then I’m working hard and striving to be close to Him as best I can.  Wish me luck.
