everything is a little bit in a holding pattern at the moment.
there's not a whole lot happening at work because of a lot of people being away and the development of new programs kind of still developing. so it more feels like we are just waiting for things to move forward there, but not really know how or when that will happen, or what it will quite look like.
then we're also waiting to start something new with TEAR, and not really sure what that will mean.
then as we look a little further ahead, it's exciting because we have our UK trip coming up in a bit over three months, and it's going to be awesome. so just counting down the days to that.
then there's a little bit of concern or worry in my head about finding out when we have to move out of this wonderful house. maybe july, maybe later. the worry is more about where we end up next and how we possibly find somewhere in this sort of area, and how we possibly afford it. the worry extends to the whole idea of renting because we'll never be able to own a place - even if we both had "real" jobs!
another part of me is also wondering about when we might start a family, but also totally freaked out about the idea. firstly about having kids that we're responsible for the health and safety of (physically, but also mentally, emotionally and spiritually), and secondly for things like my health! i hate vomiting.
and then i'm excited about possibilities, in our lives, and in the lives of other people we love. all the new opportunities and adventures. things in the future that we have to wait for to be the present.
time is a strange thing. like with our UK trip. now it's in the future and muchly anticipated. when it's in the present, it will only be in the present for three weeks. and then it will be in the past and all over. and we'll have the next thing to look forward to, whatever that will be, and just have memories of the trip. it's all a bit strange.
Category: WhatevernessHaving little ones is cool. It's scary at first, and you don't really know what you're doing, but they add so much joy and love to your lives. The are an awesome blessing and responsibility from God!
No hurry though! When it happens, it's great!
