Life IS change!

I asked my Wednesday evening prayer meeting family to pray about whether or not I need to move.  Within two days, I knew it was not in His will.  Ask Him, He will make it clear. Just make sure you are listening!!

So, I have decided to make some drastic changes in my home.  I will make the garage, (Thomas's room) back into a garage.  (no more hail damage on my car, and hopefully, I won't get robbed again.) People won't know if I am home or not.  Then, I am going to make my room into the guest room, and move into Luke's old room. Eventually, I will remodel my one bathroom.  I don't think making this home into a 2 bedroom, 1 bath, will make a difference in later years. (After I am walking the streets of gold....)  Every home around me is a rent house.  Since I am so close to McMurry, investors could buy it for students. Or, McMurry can bulldoze it, and make parking.

Also, I have been conversing with a Master Gardener.  I will be making my front and back yard into a xeriscape yard.  No mowing, just plants.  I will do it in several stages.  Hopefully the first stage in October, then as I have the money and energy.  I plan on completing it before next summer.



Another change:  Thomas is moving to Lubbock.  Praise God, he has an elementary teaching job!  He had a Skype interview with his principal.  (He adored her!)  Within an hour, he received a phone call from Personnel.  He was told that his principal, 'didn't know what he would be teaching, she just wants you on her campus.'  Hurrah!  Someone who sees how wonderful Thomas is, and what a great teacher he will be!  We drove up last week, and took the first place we looked at.  (Another God-thing)  His duplex is almost as big as my home.  However, HE has TWO bathrooms!  There is even a little backyard for Izzy, and a little patio area.  His walk-in closet is as big as my bathroom!  It is in a great neighborhood, and close to his school.  God is GREAT!!

Maybe Luke will even have some time to see me, when I go visit Thomas.  I can only pray.

Change:  As of this time next week, I will have hearing aids.  It is time.  Heredity, since my paternal grandmother had them, my daddy, even my brother.  Thomas is pleased....no more "What did you say?"  I must admit, I am even looking forward to them. More clarity, less feeling left out.
