I have a new layout and hopefully a new blogging attitude. I want to be more connected to the world as well, not just my world.



I am engaged, since the last time I wrote, to Lindsey Shepperd. She is wonderful and can actually deal with the real me. I still forget that now she is supposed to be my constant confidant, and not just sister. We are seeking the Lord on where we are to move, do school (me), minister, and live. It is still up in the air. We thought St. Louis was a viable option, but has not felt right about it. Uberspiritual... maybe, but I just have no desire to move without comfort in the plan.
