IM HERE

Its crazy that Im here... moved in and such... Its CRAZY because this has been a process that started years ago.. the planning the deciding, the declairing... not all in that oreder of course... Life has brought me here to Evanston IL at least for now.... mu ah ah ah.... I always say I will blog more... but I wont.... Ill just throw tid bits on for now and see what happens. Its been an interesting start. My apt. pics are below... I realize this is just the inside... I live above an old fassion barber shop and a delli. There is also a dry cleaner, italian resturaunt,coffee/bagle shop all below my building... I am within 50 feet of where I catch the L to go to the city or wherever I let it take me. I am about five blovks from campus and just a 10 min drive away from target. So far life is good... My friend tally would be up to two.. If only I could remember their names... met them in church this morning... we were the three white people at Sherman UMC. We didnt know we would be attending the all African American Cong. The ushurs wore white gloves and white uniforms and we sang from a book called songs from zion... lots of hand raising and amen shouting... some even waved bibles.... we knew the service started at 10:30 because we were on time... we didnt however know it ended at 12:30. The offereing plates went around once and were blessed then passed again. Thats funny because Pastor Ric joked about that last Sunday when I was home... we sang "if you have a dollar give it to the Lord give it to the Lord. I was right there with them for most of it.....

I'm so glad for your note and pictures. Glad you are there and the very best to you throughout the year. Yes, Pastor Ric had the offering plates sent around twice today to. Must be something new:-)
