Jehovah Rohi - The Lord is our Shepherd
We have a little catching up to do. Two weeks,
after the Lord blessed us with a wonderful home, we said "until
next time" (no Good-byes) to our wonderful friends in Houston, packed up
the home (400 boxes, wow we're blessed), sent Meghan and EK to Perry and Ward
and Kenai to Alaska. #wemissourcitygroup |
| An Alaskan Shepherd |
The first few weeks were a little bumpy for Ward and Kenai.
They started in a Motel 6 (told you it was coming), spent four nights in a Microtel on the 3rd floor
(yes, Kenai is still scared of stairs), moved to an apartment complex that Ward
lived in as an intern (which has not changed in 7 yrs aka rundown) and learned
about the joys of apartment life all over again. Owning a home is a blessing
that is easy to take for granted.
It took about a week before they felt half-way settled and
Kenai (By the way, no one in Texas could
pronounce her name and now that she lives in AK, every other dog has her name)
learned that every noise in the apt was not directed towards her. Then the road got a little bumpier....Kenai
got kennel cough even with the bordetala shot, the closing date kept sliding
further and further back, our house in Houston was not selling, and when the
cars arrived M's had $5,000 worth of damage. However, as The Lord does in his
time, he answered prayers and continue to pave the way for us. Within a week, Ward found a vet that would
board Kenai for his trip to OK to get M and EK, the Houston home went under
contract, and the closing date was moved up by a week against all expectations.
As I (Ward, FYI he uses a lot less "#"
signs), writes this entry we are headed to our new home on a one way flight....
Ready or not here we come Alaska
