So it's four days until moving day, and I think it is hitting me more and more that I am actually moving across the country. Today was my last day at my church in Wadena, it was the last time I'll see my grandparents until Christmas, and the last time I will see my very bestest friend Krystal for awhile! I've decided I don't like to think about all the "lasts". Instead, I am going to think about all the "firsts". Like my first night in my new apartment, and my first day with my students! Those thing make me really excited in the midst of the sadness of the "lasts".
On another note, my and my dad watched "The Book of Eli" tonight, and it really made me think! (if you haven't seen it yet, you should! It's an AWESOME movie!) Anyway, I kind of feel a bit like Eli, I am definitely walking by faith, not by sight in this "big move". I have no idea what God has in store for me, but I know Casa Grande is where he wants me, so that is where I am going! Crazy stuff! I am a planner, and this is definitley not the way I saw my life going even just 6 short months ago...scratch that...1 month ago. But God works in mysterious ways, and I know that his hand is working in all of this!
Well, that's all for tonight! Whew, feels good to get those thoughts out on "paper"! As moving day approaches, I find my mind just whirling and whirling with nervousness, excitement, any other emotion that you can think of!
Signing off,
Ashley
