And It Begins
Whew. We’re finally at home, not just in our house, but at home. My mom came this weekend to help us unpack, hang pictures, and get all the little things in order so we can just rest. We moved in last Monday, so tonight makes a full week of being here. We’ve met the neighbors (very nice folks I can see being friends with), painted two rooms, unpacked everything, and even managed to throw more stuff away.
Tomorrow I start my job working for the Hutto Chamber of Commerce. It will be a great way to invest in the community and just to get the vibe of Hutto. Plus, I’ll be doing a lot of the stuff I love (creating systems, maximizing potential, stuff like that). However, it will be the first time that I have a “real job” since Kylie was born. I’m gonna miss getting to see her as often as I do, but for now it’s just a part time gig (hopefully full time sooner than later). This week I’ve been going at breakneck speed just so I could slow down this weekend before the big plunge. Life is about to get very interesting, and I’m excited to see where God will take us.
I’m fighting the dichotomy between moving fast and taking it slow, pressing onward and being still. Is it possible to do both? I’ve heard that some sharks die if they stop moving (just checked on Wikipedia, it’s true). Is it true for me as well? I’ll probably include some of my thoughts more in depth over the next few days, but for now, I need to rest (ha). Tomorrow it begins.
