New home...still settling in.

Joshua and I moved over Labor day weekend into our new home! We have so much space, and it is beautiful. The house is truly a blessing from the Lord. Now, I'm working on adjusting to my new commute and unpacking. The unpacking is going quite slowly. Part of the slowness is due to the fact that almost all of our boxes are in the garage. So, it makes finding specific boxes difficult. But, it will get done in time. Also, since Joshua and I have decided that we have too much stuff, we're planning on going through them together. However, he is away right now at training in Indianapolis (he's planning on seeing Kevin and Amy on Sunday). So, a lot of the unpacking is on hold.

The other reason the unpacking is going slower is that I now have a commute. When we lived in Folsom, my job was 10 minutes from our apartment. Now, my drive is about 50 minutes! But, I am thankful for our house, so the commute is worth it.

I'm hoping I can get a lot done with the house before Joshua returns. We'll see...

Man, 50 minutes is quite a drive in these parts. In Southern California it's pretty standard. I used to drive 40 minutes and I loved listening to news on NPR. When I stopped commuting I felt like I didn't know what was going on in the world anymore.

Say hi to Joshua for us!
