This is all in the course of about two weeks. Need I say more?
The Navy brought me back to Dahlgren. We refinanced the car from 24% to 4.9%. The financial counselor we are seeing found 3000 bucks in taxes from a couple years back for us. Anika’s insurance settlement from Cali is about to go through. We may be seeing a new car in a couple of weeks. I got a new job, my own office away from all the people I was facing when this started. I got my clearance in, so I can work the secondary job I came here for. I got my other clearance, so I can get my part-time job in a few months (which could make my career if I decide to go to the civilian life). I got promoted, so I’m now OS1 (SW) Hickok. Found a church we’ll be able to attend and worship with regularly (sorry, Anchor, we’re not quite able to drive all the way to you yet). Started a new study using Rick Warren’s “The Purpose Driven Life.” And most important: I got a huge smile out of my wonderful wife for the first time in two weeks, which blew all this other stuff away.
Praise the Lord! I’m slowly learning to remember:
“Don’t tell God you have a BIG PROBLEM. Tell your problem you have a BIG GOD!”
Romans 8:28 still stands as my #1 verse.
And here, of all things, you’ll find the most recent photo of me. Not many pookapictures have been on the market of late, but I finally found one. Fuzzy, I know (not just the mustache).
