Settling In Part 2

Hello dear friends,

Things are beginning to feel more like home here. We are settled into our apartment. We have decided to bring Miss Jane up with us this month. I think this will make our little apartment feel more like home. And it will give us company when one of us is working. So, here are some highlights.

We visited Calvary Baptist Church Sunday. The sermon was very challenging and the people were very friendly. This church differs slightly on doctrine but the major points are agreeable. We were invited by a woman in my BSF discussion group but we chose to visit a Sunday School class and go to a later service. BSF is FAN TASTIC! I am really thankful for my discussion group. We are all interested in developing relationships which is such a beautiful gift! Roland is planning on joining a men's group.

Roland is really enjoying his job. He has a board today and then he begins to qualify on his first set of five plants. He begins shift work next Monday and is excited to get started. He has been really impressed with the training offered. It is very extensive. We have been invited to watch the balloons for the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade being blown up with nitrogen from Linde! We are both excited about this and hope we can go. Linde is providing buses for the 1 1/2 hour trip each way. We will also be near the Natural History Musuem. We think it would be fun to tour that too.

I have been offered a part time job at Best Buy as a customer service rep. I will be working up to 32 hours a week. It won't be anywhere close to as stressful as working in mental health. I was impressed that everyone working there seemed happy and the management was nice. I think I will enjoy the business and bustle of the holiday season in retail. Since we will not be going home during the holidays it will give me a chance to be around people.

We hope you are happy and well.
