Ch, Cha, Changes.

Opening lyrics to a song someone or other sang.  Beach Boys maybe?  I've no idea.  Yet it's been stuck in my head for a week now.

Ok.  I'm now in Jacksonville, FL.  It's been wonderful so far. 

I've had folks coming by with pots and pans and coffee makers and bed clothes.  I've gone off shopping with one of my sisters for interview clothes, found 2 suits and a bunch of shirts (one of them a sort of light purple).  J and T say it will bring on girls.  I'm rather doubtfull.  But hey!  If something works, it works right?

I also wonder why they think I need the help.  I'm no Robert Redford, but I've not exactly scared dogs and small children either.  Ok...not often anyway.

The Lord already sent me the right girl.  Just not in the right place for us to be together.  That will of course change.  I will go there to Cal or she will end up here in FL.  Or we will come to know others.  His plan is always perfect.  Even if I just stay alone, it's still perfect.  Heck, I'm happy as I am now anyway.

It is wonderful being here with my family.  I do wish my brother F would wake up and see what is before him.  But he does not seem to have heard the voice as yet.  No worries.  All of his choices will still lead him home.

I'm setting in here and getting used to things.  Other than the heat that I'm not used to, everything has been great. 

H and D brought me some pans the other day along with sheets and a "Coffee Pot"!  May God bless them for their gift!  Coffee!  The Staff of Life!

J has given my a comforter, CFL bulbs for my lights, a container for my grits and other wonderful things to get a place started.

My father has given me a wonderful office chair along with orange and milk crates to make a book shelf.

E gave me a microwave!  How much value can one give such a gift of love?

It's wondrous to me to have so much support surround me with help.  Nothing I've ever experienced in my life has been like this.  Amazing how caring and loving and supportive people can be. 

I've had folks do things for me before.  Great things.  But from my family?  I've known forever that my family takes care of folks in general and family specific.  I'm just now experiancing it in the specific and I'm Wowed!



It's amazing to me how much a family can help and support you indirectly as well.  My Sister T and I had a bit of a talk today and between her and J, I've easily maintain my perspective of what is and is not in this world.

My love to you all,

HUGS

Johnny.
