Well hello. I'm slowly getting around to actually working on this website. I can hardly believe I've waited almost an entire month before adding a new entry. Let's see. What's going on in my life? I have new roomates. They moved in two nights ago. It's been interesting. I've only met them once before they moved in. They seem to be pleasant enough. As exciting as having new housemates should be...I still really miss living with Christians. I somehow doubt that Dave and Tonya (the new housemates) are even remotely active in religion. Hopefully I'll actually be seeing them around. It was starting to get remarkably lonesome coming home every day to an empty house (Ryan and Shawn are usually gone when I get home and I don't even see Holly much any more). Jeff might start working with Ryan and Shawn. He's no longer working at Krispe Kreme (it was getting stressful to the point that it was really harming both his marraige and -- more importantly -- his relationship with God. The place where Ryan and Shawn work (I've forgotten the name) would most assuredly be less stressful than managing the Krispe Kreme, but the schedule wouldn't be very good for his marraige now that I think about it. If Jodie works during the Day and Jeff during the afternoon and evenings, then they'll have very little time together unless one or both of them loose a lot of sleep. There are a couple job openings for manager positions around here.

God, please help him to swiftly find a good and stable job

On the brighter side of his unemployment his relationship with both Jodie and God have drastically improved. It is so nice to see his beaming smile once more. He's even been writing again! After such a long time of writer's block he's at it again.

My own relationship with God has been on a strange rollercoaster. Overall it's been getting better, but at times like now it seems like it's hit a little plataeu. I've been getting stressed out again. I could really feel it at the end of the elementary school dance class I taught. I was getting so frustrated over how I wasn't able to find a way to communicate

Sometimes I just need some time off. I am more than ready for another vacation.
