The Ticking in my Head

Only two days until Im on my own. I have to say at moments waves of fear, loss and yes, dread, have overtaken me. Not for long mind you, just enough to get the adrenaline and emotions above normal. I know this is just what has to happen to get from A-B. Still I am preparing for a very introspective summer, at least thats what Im praying for. Tick, tick tick, thats the clock I keep hearing, and then maybe a gunshot! Not because anyone is hurt, but, because the race is on! I have a long race ahead but I must remember there is a finish line. God give me the victory that I run this well. Amen.

Lot Landing!!!

Ok friends, its official, Maui Man called and Ken leaves the 30th! The lot has landed and has been decided. It was so great to have that, "for sure "feeling.

Now, reality is hitting that my hubbie, is leaving me with all the coo-coo-nuts!!! Wow this should be hilarious! Don't worry, I'll be sharing all the craziness just so you all can feel more sane, than me anyhow. ha

I forgot to say Ken found out he had free air miles, so his ticket was free! How cool is that?Every little blessing, is still a blessing!!!

Nail Biting!

Friends-

I had to blog for therapy this morning. I was reading in my Bible, (which you find yourself faithful to do in times of major transitions) and this Proverb summed it all up. "The lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is from the Lord."Pvb. 16:33

Last night Ken and I; I believe, ate everyone of our fingernails off. We waited for the phone call until I fell asleep( stress knocks me out). The elusive man from Maui, this stranger who holds the details of our life and future in his PHONE CALL!!! Thats how it felt believe me. Now we all know the song that reminds us -"He holds the whole world, in His hands" and truly it is God, but we also know that God speaks through the circumstances of our lives. This was not looking good. Maybe we jumped the gun, maybe we aren't supposed to go anywhere, maybe a bizarre ice storm is going to hit my airplane and Gods trying to save us!!!The list just wants to grow!!ha

Well needless to say, the elusive man DID finally call and he's still making plans for Ken. Yet, I know anything could change any moment. I guess until Ken's feet touch the sands of Maui, our lot is still in the air. We are not the deciders.

Thanks for reading and if you feel compelled to pray for us and our nail biting, we would appreciate it!

Hawaii Details

To Our Reader Friends and Family,

This blog allows us to keep all the details of our latest adventure fresh and alive,and all can enjoy it with us!! The adventure Im writing of, of course is our future move to the island of Maui, in the Hawaiian Islands(in case you don't know).

It began with Ken looking for a job in his past profession of, HVAC and Refrigeration Systems Technician. It was a trying time but after many phone calls and a long drive Ken found a job in Vancouver. Neither of us was to excited about living in the rain after a decade of sunshine, but we were thankful for Gods provision and would be closer to family. In Ken's heart he knew he had always wanted to move back to the islands(he had left them for me, 20 yrs. back), but thought for sure all jobs would be snatched up. On a whim, he began a search which blew our minds! There was five openings for Journeyman Techs. He sent his resumes out and within a day had his first call, then another and another. Needless to say, my husband is a wanted man, and not just by me!!!ha Well we have prayed and prayed for God to have His will in all of this and I am moved to tears, that he has allowed me the chance to say "yes" to my husbands dream, after being the reason he left in the first place.

So, Ken has chosen the company and will be finding out today when he will be flying out. I will stay back with the kids and finish our summer here in our little town, allowing them to soak up the only place they've really ever known.

I forgot to say, Ken's brother Chris lives on Maui, and has for the last 20 yrs. He told Ken that his condo was empty and free for him to live in, what a blessing!!

Now, we're in the process of letting go of all earthly possessions, and flying free to the new life God has for our family!

I really intend on writing more often as I go through this new adventure and, I pray you'll all enjoy it with me.
