[Getting.Set]

Well, things are set now for the big 'unveiling' on Sunday. This is the week that we announce to the church that we are leaving in a couple of weeks. This has already been an up-and-down week as it is and I'm sure that Sunday will be the same way. It will be emotional, especially talking with the youth. I feel like we're doing things the right way - at least in a way that causes the least amount of hurt feelings as possible (although I know there will still be some).

We finally found a house to move to, which is a huge relief. We've been waiting all week on some details about the job before we confirmed with the house that we wanted. We're planning one last trip to the city to get things squared away. We'll take some pictures of the new house to show some family/friends around here & begin to try and figure out what goes where.

I'm glad of one thing, at least - I'm going to enjoy not having to whisper anymore or worry about someone overhearing something. I feel like I've been living somewhat of a double-life for the past year. I'm not going to go and spill my guts in front of everyone in the church - it will just be nice to know that if I did it would be okay now. I don't have to worry about what people are going to think about what I think.

It will be a major adjustment to make and a totally different type of life than we've been living thus far. It's kind of scary, but it is more exciting than anything. We're ready for the move, at this point (mentally - not even close to physically being ready). Exciting days ahead!
