Title:

As I lay in bed tonite...

Post Text

I've been living very comfortably in my small apartment, in a small community up in the mountains of the Dominican Republic... It took me some time to get used to the slow pace, and the smell of the cows (i'm a city girl), but i got to really like it...Finally. And now that i feel content here, we have to move :) I guess God has a sense of humor-when i finally give up my fight, and accept his desire for my being here, he takes me out- I'm excited, and scared at the same time... We don't even know where exactly we are going, but by the end of the year we'll be somewhere in the Midwest, depending on where does my husband get a job...He needs to be back by the end of November, to start a treatment on his kidneys (that's the main reason why we're leaving) so i might be facing thanksgiving and christmas without my husband, because i can't leave yet. I trust in the Lord, but it's so hard for me to just get up and leave my friends, my house, my things... We are going to sell as much as we can, so we travel as light as possible, and the thought of having to start over again is overwhelming right now...To the point of tears as i pray for us. I'm going to miss this place, the views, the smells...I'll miss my neighbors and friends...I won't have my mother and family one hour away from me anymore, and that's going to be hard for me. I know i'll be happy, i trust in God, and he only wants good things for me so i can prosper, but it's so hard to change. So if you have some time, pray for this family of four (Peter-the husband-, Julie-me-,Lara-the baby- and Nina-the dog), Thanks, Julie
