Saturday I moved back to Texas to attend seminary. This week has been spent unpacking and trying to get the house in order. I decided not to post any pics until I get it done, but since I'm on a grad student's budget, its gonna be awhile before I can afford to get the little things that will really spruce the place up. Here are some basic pics of the living room and kitchen as they are right now.

Its not much to look at but it's home. Still looking for a roommate to help split the living expenses, but I know it's all gonna work out. Milt and Janet are really loving the new place. Janet has a decent backyard to run around in, and Milton has loved playing in all the empty boxes from moving. This has been an adjustment for all of us, but having Milt and Janet has made the transition much easier.
The decision to leave my old job was a tough call to make. The church I worked at is full of loving generous people with whom I have become good friends. They even took up an amazing love offering that helped pay for all the deposits on my new place and for my moving expenses as well as some school costs. I will miss them all dearly.
The toughest part of the move was leaving behind all my good friends and adopted family. I know that a part of growing up is leaving and meeting new people, but that doesn't make it any less painful to do so.
I'll post some pics and info on school in my next post. I need to go spend some time on campus with the camera.
The good news is I'll be working for my school as a graphic designer/publisher. It's an exciting opportunity, but will definitely be a challenge. The good news is I get to use their brand new Canon T3i camera and Mac computer with editing software! I'm super excited to see where this leads.
Blessings to all. Hopefully, you'll be hearing from me soon!
Looks like you are getting settled.
