Busy with family!

Josh and family got moved to Minnesota safely, praise God! They are still with me, but are going to meet their new landlady as I type this. They've found a trailer house just about 1-1/2 miles down the road from us. This will be nice for visiting and so we can all help each other when needed. Jess has found a job at Subway in the town that is about 12 miles from us. Josh brought his job with him. Starry will start school tomorrow and she will be in the same class as Hazel. Nathan has had some bipolar issues and is in the hospital in Fargo where they are reassessing the meds he's on. I think he will be discharged on Friday and hopefully things will go better.

They will be surrounded by a small community out in the country. There are three other trailers, one occupied by a local pastor and his family. The landlady's husband is also a pastor and they have raised a special needs child, so it looks like they are in a good place to make some friends and have some fellowship. As soon as we move their belongings one more time (they're in a storage garage in that town 12 miles away) we hope to all settle into some sort of routine. Yeah, right. Life doesn't seem to like to let us do that, lol. But we'll get as close as we can.

Winter may finally be grudgingly releasing its grip on our area. We still have piles of snow, but the temps are rising. It's sunny and we have a south wind today. It feels kind of humid. I think that's a good thing. :)

I don't have much for new photos, but Micah's three youngest posed for these with their Paul Bunyan beard. It was crocheted by their "other Grandma Lisa". This Grandma Lisa gave up on crocheting pretty quickly, lol.

And Starry lost a tooth!
Well, y'all, I'm tired. We're all just getting over being sick. In fact, Starry and Nathan haven't even gotten to see their cousins yet, so that should happen soon. We're pretty much recovered.

I'm enjoying all of your blogs. Thanks for coming to see mine! Much love!
Shalom.

  2. Oh, my goodness, family moving closer to other family sounds so wonderful! Our family members seem to be moving all away from one another at this stage :-(

    I am so happy for you all! Sure it's not necessarily easy living close to ANYone, but it's right. May God bless it!!

  3. Dear Lisa, it is wonderful, that the family comes closer together. really wonderful and good! You are the heart and you have a big heart. I'm so sorry of the illness bipolar. The most important way is the right medicine. I know, what this illness means! Thanks goodness there are modern possibilities of helping. I hope you will sometimes or more often find your private place like Jesus did, to get new energy to make good work, you know..

    Many greetings from Dori from the wild Bavarian Forest.

  4. Hi, Lisa. So glad they arrived safely and things seem to be settling down for them. So sorry you've been sick! But life will sort out, and peace will come. I hope Nathan is better. Getting the right meds/dosage is SO helpful. And that beard is hilarious!
