for prying eyes only
Vivian and I have almost finished arranging our apartment. Last night we spent the majority of the night digging out our wall decorations and other miscellaneous decor so we can begin hiding our very pasty white walls with crosses and paintings that Vivian has done.
Decorating an apartment is always fun because it's like turning a temporary living unit into a home. Once you put up your first wall-hanging fixture, then it's officially a "home." Before that, it was just an exaggerated cardboard box with ceiling fans that temporarily provides us with cover when it rains and an occasional hot meal.
Nevertheless, we have almost unpacked every cardboard box that, for the time being, has only served us by being a place to stack things on.
In a short while, once everything has been hung and nailed and stuck-to and positioned and re-positioned and centered and stapled and taped and stored away and shimmied-to-the-right- a-little'd....then I will have pictures of our new home in Bedford.
Until then, I leave you with this:
"We need to stop asking God to bless what we're doing and get involved with what God is doing, which will already be blessed.*"

Congratulations on your new place! That's always such an exciting event-because it really matters where your home is, especially as you spend time there together and invite people into your home. Enjoy!
I love you both!!
