Are you always looking forward to something?
July 29, 2009
I am. I’m one of those people who really need to learn to live in the moment because I am almost always looking forward to the next exciting thing/event/people/food.
Good news: we received our visa in the mail!! Unbelievable considering the long drawn out process (see previous post), and so very thankful to the Lord for giving us favor. We were hoping to receive it in time for us to return on our flight booked at August 10th. And since we received it way ahead of time, we got greedy and tried to change our flight to a few days earlier so we can get home. Few emails to the travel agent, few phone calls to the airlines, and we just kept running into walls, so finally we gave up.
But I’m bummed. Not that I’m not enjoying our time here in the U.S., but we are ready to start our new lives in Taiwan and six weeks is a long time to just “vacation” here in Colorado. I’m eager to get back to start job hunting, figure out a preschool for Hayden, and go furniture shopping for our new home.
I guess I need to just stay put for a couple more weeks and just live in the moment.
