There has been so much that i have wanted to blog about, but i haven't, and i am pretty sure that it basically comes down to laziness.
So in a nutshell, and totally random, these are a few things that have been happening.
Today, a butterfly landed on me.
That is something that truly brings me delight.
We are moving to Doty Island, into an upper apartment in this big ol' house that i absolutely adore.
It has hardwood floors, glass doornobs, and vintage bathroom fixtures that i go gaga over.
I am on the job search again. Even now, i am rolling my eyes, considering the fiasco, turned brilliant, adventure that it was previously.
Milwaukee has been a really great place to live for these 8 months. It has opened my eyes a bit, to a couple things, such as, but not limited to...
- the importance of buying local and small business.
- community can be a really good thing.
- racial divisions and poverty have no easy answer or quick fix
- strangers can surprise me by their grace and kindness
- be green, ride your bike, walk, recycle, find creative uses for things, and garden.
And our home church, a group of people who have been so supportive, honest, vulnerable, and loving, I will miss most of all. God surprised us with this place and my heart is full when i think of the people we have known in this place.
...my dear ones, o God, bless thou and keep, in every place where they are.
