It's amazing how it was the combination of unemployment and the loss of our home of five years that brought me to my knees. These are not insurmountable obstacles but it felt so big. It took me awhile to regain my footing and my perspective. We have been lifted up by friends and family and surrounded by love and good wishes. People that do not know me have sent me love and prayers and good thoughts. It has been unbelieveable. Only good things can happen. This is not the story of a family getting torn apart or about people facing deadly illness or the forever loss of a loved one. We are unbelieveably blessed. I believe in the power of prayer. I believe in the combined effect of goodwill and good wishes from others. Look at what happened in Amy Powers' life last week. Amazing. Thank you to all of you for lifting me up. I wish I could give each and every one of you a hug.
We have two applications in on two possible rental homes. Hopefully, we will know something by next week.
In the meantime, this is a Good Life. A good good life.
Can't get this song out of my head today:

...just watching and waiting to see how God works it out for you and Family....... Praying for you.
I'm super, super psyched you got that house, Amy. I hope this is the beginning of a big turnaround for you and your family.
I know a little something about trying to emerge from a run of challenging events and regain the feeling that one's life is on track again, Amy. Keep the faith. Forward motion and a cheerful spirit are the keys to success. In the meantime, please count me among the wide circle of supportive friends gathered around you.
