Today is cloudy, just waiting for the Realtor to call us to let us know if we are getting the town house in Edinburg. I will have to force myself to empty boxes, renting is not like owning your own home, always feel like your never really home. It will be nice knowing we will not move again in a year unless we are able to buy a place before then. I'm feeling very alone, no one to visit, feel like i have no purpose. I need to help someone, that always makes me feel better.
Jerry will leave Monday to go to New Jersey for orientation for 3 days. If we get the house we will move when he gets back, NJ is 2.5 hours closer here in MD than VA. He will drive rather than take the bus. He's dreading it, he looked up the hotel and it didn't have very good reviews. He also hates sleeping in their beds. If it wasn't for our cat, Terri and i could go with him. I do think this will be good for him.
I think of you all so much, i am praying God gives me Friends from NY and some like you sisters in Maine. To tell you the truth, i'm not looking forward to meeting new people. My heart is still in Maine, I can't think about living in VA for years and years, in my mind it just seems like i'm passing through. I still miss my little home in NY.
I am so thankful Jerry has not swelled, i wouldn't even know where to take him here. I will have to find a hospital in VA, i think we are a half hour from one.
I will let you know when we will be moving. My love to all.

Hi Holley... was catching up on your blog... I am so sorry that things aren't falling into place! We will continue to pray! Call anytime if you want to chat. (: Love you lots... Janet
Hello Holley,
Catching up on your blog again - been wondering how you are doing and so glad you post because it helps me to find out, when I have time! Ironically I am in Virginia right now, at a "Girl's Weekend" my cousin is having at her house, for us girl cousins (my sister, my 4 cousins who are sisters, and 2 of their daughters, are here). I went RIGHT BY the Front Royal exit on the way down! I think that is the exit I took for a ladies retreat a few years ago at the church in Amherst - I think that's the town - could that be a possible church for you (maybe too far)? The church name is Dayspring Christian Fellowship (is like ours). I could get contact #'s when I get home if you want. I think Chupp is one of the names there. Anyway, it sounds like you are in MD now? The Demars moved there, as I mentioned (you might remember them - from Maine, moved to Oxford, were pastoring in the Finger Lakes area, and now just moved to MD - can't remember where though!). I pray and trust you are finding the Lord faithful in all of the uncertainties - I know that can be SO hard when circumstances just DON'T SEEM TO MAKE SENSE! (Believe me!) But God is on the throne, is still in control, and I STILL LOVE YOU SO MUCH my friend! Wish I could stop & see you on my way home Monday! My sister is driving but if I hear from you maybe it would be feasible??
Love you,
Michele
