HI, FOLKS!
Well, it was quite an adventure getting here, but I am finally moved into my new apartment and am back online as of this afternoon. Due to circumstances way beyond my control, I was forced to wait an extra day before making the drive up, which did not make me a very happy camper.
And despite my best efforts (including two rummage sales) to purge my earthly belongings, it still took two U-Hauls to get me and my 5 tons of stuff to Ashland. But strangely enough, as it turned out, I had an Episcopal priest driving each of the moving trucks. Plus, when we got here after a grueling 7-hour trip, total strangers from my new church (including my new parish priest's son and two vestry members) helped us unload everything.
When she heard about my two heavenly roadies, my new boss seemed fairly nonplussed. Then I really freaked her out by telling her that God sent me here. And do you know what the real kicker is...? After everything I've been through to get to this point in my life, I truly believe that. So don't mess with me, St. Stan or Mother Madame Superior. LOL Will write more soon. Take care everyone.
PS. And yes that is an actual photo of the first 14-foot truck being backed up to my front door last Monday afternoon.
