That is what the big move is amounting to, a panic attack. (Matt has a more fitting term he uses at work, cluster****, but I am trying to keep this family friendly.) I know that when we prayed about the idea we were kind of invoking the jitters & anxiety that plague humanity in general, but they specifically turbo-breed when you are committing comfort suicide.
I mean, our life here is pretty sweet. We have a community that adores my husband & all the amazing programs he has been a part of, almost all the extended family within reach, 2 date nights every week, the boy's teachers are our genuine friends, money left after the bills are paid, weekends that can be devoted to fun instead of endless house projects, & so much more that goes unnoticed.
But not for long. We are hoping that God will blow our mind with the next chapter of our story. So far, the expectations are really high. As are the worries. Did we hear right? Will there be a better job? Will there be a job at all? The church has been the source of our greatest hurts, is this going to be different? Do we really trust Him?
I have decided it is like the rookie mistake of praying for patience. If you have done this, you know what I mean. The universe upchucks all it's calamity on you & you get patience, along with some wisdom to never ask for it again. There are all these desires that swarm in our hearts, now, we are stepping out with our family to see if any take flight.
In the meantime. For my peeps who need deets, this is what we know: we are moving to the Seattle area from June 1- August 20ish for sure. We are committing at least this summer to checking it out. My sister, Lindsay is embarking on this adventure as well. We will rent at least a 4 bedroom place to give her a room in the Achuleta casa. Pray for her. Just kidding, she loves the wild boys & we even left her alone with them for a few days to make sure. We will be moving Memorial Day weekend after, hopefully, securing a place to live over Easter weekend. All of us, Lindsay , & some grandparents will be heading to Seattle for Easter services at the church we are going to be a part of. Maybe there is a frat house by the U of W for rent? Haha, I am not joking. We do not have any job lined up, just some programs & the church that we want to check out. That is really freaky, & that is all we know.
Thanks for all your encouragement & prayers, it has meant so much to me in the last week. And, yes! Seattle will not change the blog! It will in fact, get better, in quantity anyway. It may just be a lot more posts on panic attacks :/
I myself am a huge fan of the phrase cluster**** sadly. If anything else this will be a great family adventure, Im sure you guys will find what it is you are lookign for up there and make that your new home base. Devin on the other hand hopes you hate it and the whole thing tanks, but thats cause he is 11.
