Finally Working!!

Today is my first day back to work since leaving the bank on December 29, 2006. I can't say just how my bills have been paid in this time (and there certainly are bills) but between refunds from services I had overpaid to Christmas money and now tax refunds I was able to hang in there.

This month ahs been quite something. I have read a few books, finished others, began attending my new home church and helping them out, and had PLENTY of quiet time to myself. All in all I think I will look back on this period of little to do with much fondness. A simple, quiet existence I can hardly look forward to, but I can certainly look to make those times I do have to myself slow. Slow is good.

My church - we don't have a web site so I cannot direct you there - my apologies. Easton Wesleyean Church is a great little community. It is growing by leaps and bounds and that growth has recently been natural - as in - through conversions. The senior pastor is Rev. Matthew Maxwell and he has an assistant - Pastor Vaughn Martin. Both guys are great and have their gifts engaged in their ministries.

Perhaps most remarkable of all is the men's group that meets once a week at Pastor Matt's house. It is a small group study intended to help mature men (in one of 20 areas) help those who are less mature. As it happens there are five or six of us guys and the conversations so far have been very productive.

One sad note - I have had to move yet again. Can't go into details here, but drop me a line and we can talk about it.

All for now - the bell is about to ring!

so does the "bell" thing mean that you are working in the school system?
