I'm Back!

I have returned! It has been far too long, and the world has changed significantly since my last post...at least my world has changed. When I left you, my car had just been totaled, I was about to move to Boston, and it was last August! I am in Michigan now, and never ended up making the move to Boston, which is quite a story in itself. A tree had fallen on my car one week before my departure to Boston. Totaling my car created a bit of a delay in my departure. After the tree fell on my car (which seemed like a bad thing at the time), I had to deal with my insurance, car shop, buy a car, and get all the paperwork involved completed before I could move. I did find a car (an audi A6), and everything finally seemed set for the move. I packed my things, and loaded up the car for the trip. That night I slept on the couch, fully expecting to depart the next morning for Boston. I received a phone call around 8 in the morning from my old boss at Pratt & Whitney asking me if I wanted to stop in to talk for a couple minutes. I took the short drive to Pratt, and walked out about a half hour later with a new job offer. I accepted the position at Pratt, and have been working there ever since. I am currently a subcontract purchasing representative, which probably means nothing to you. The job is much better than the position I was going to take in Boston. I am making much better money, which will help me to pay things off quickly, and have full benefits. It is slightly strange being back in Michigan, but I have been enjoying my time back home. I have been volunteering with the jr. high youth group at Calvary Church as the music leader, and have been participating in one of the worship teams at the church as well. I love working with the jr. high...they are an incredible group of kids, and I am certain I am learning far more from their willing hearts then they will ever learn from me, musically. Speaking of music, I was finally able to purchase my Taylor walnut series acoustic guitar! The exact taylor model is W14ce, just in case you want to look it up. It is a beautifully created guitar, and sounds amazing! The past 8 months have truly been a blurr, but God has been teaching me an incredible amount over that time, and I truly believe that it was his plan to make the tree fall on my car to delay my leaving. I think that this is where God wants me right now, and even though I don't know His whole plan I can definitely see His working through my life. I will try to post more often now. Until next time I wish you all the best, and hope you will seek His will in all you do.

Glad you're back and in our area rather than Boston. Thanks for your help tonight.
