one week in lancaster

so it has been a terribly crazy past 2 or 3 weeks. First my mother shattered her ankle, is now the bionic woman we call her, with 15 screws and a plate in her ankle. This happened exactly a week before my move to lancaster, so therefore i was in the hospital almost everyday/night of that last week in new castle. Then the moving and packing days arrived and just flew by and all the sudden i was driving away from new castle, my family, my friends, my home. moving to a place that is to be now called home, to my new church family, and new friends. so like anyone else does, on the drive out to lancaster that day i put on eminem "if you had one shot, one opportunity, to seize everything you ever wanted, in one moment, would you capture it, or just let is slip" I knew there was no looking back, no holding on to "mommy and daddy" anymore. i wasn't going to college, i was moving, for real, for good. This was my one shot, to get out, to take a chance, to make a change, a big change.

About a year ago God planted in my heart a seed and desire to move out here, of course not without holy hands, and to be apart of an absolutely amazing church, Freedom Life Christian Center. So after a year of dreaming and praying, it has all become reality, and i am giddy, missing home some days, yes, but not having much time to really miss it either. We (holy hands/first fruits) have moved our office out here to lancaster, more details on that to come in another blog. So i did not leave holy hands, i really believe holy hands will continue to be a huge part of my life, for a very long time. I could not be more excited about the opportunities i have with moving out here! Since i was a young girl i have always dreamed of getting my own apartment, with a little kitty of course and being independent all on my own before prince charming was to come along. i know it all sounds silly, but it's all coming together, and i just can't stop smiling, seriously. hehe. who would have thought i would love living in lancaster, but i do, at least this week i do.

anyways that's all for now, just some ramblings in my head...thanks for all the prayers. I am so blessed beyond words. :)
