So, since my last post, I have:
- introduced my parents to my Beloved's parents
- hosted an goodbye Chicago / "engagement" shindig
- packed up way too much crap
- said adieu to the Windy City (and lovely Bowers House and the awesome ladies of WWOW)
- cried
- drove to upstate New York (stopping to visit friends in Cleveland)
- attended Eleanor and Thor's wedding
- met Craig's Peace Corps friends
- drove to Virginia (stopping to visit great aunts in New York and Pennsylvania)
- arrived at our new home
- wondered if new house was haunted
- fought with movers
- cried
- got a library card
- took a drug test for my new job
- started my new job
- unpacked a too little of my crap
- decided computer is possessed
- got a reimbursement from movers
- made a few new friends
- missed my Chicago friends tremendously
- loved on Craig
- found a great used bookstore
- got food poisoning
- got well
- built a bookcase
- unpacked a little more
- found a church (rather two churches) we like
- beat Craig at Pente
- cursed my demon computer
- found a box of cassette tapes from college, high school, and junior high
- actually listened to Milli Vanilli (or the two guys who really who sang for the lip-synching duo)
- laughed
That's about it. Not too much to write about.
What's been happening with you?

Wow, you posted! :) It sounds like everything is going great. Well except the food poisoning.
(nothing exciting happening here)
I'm glad to know you've made it to your new home safe. The food poisoning sucks, but you can't beat a good bookstore.
Sorry I never got back with you on the stats. I didn't need them. My denomination has a wonderful research and stats department, so I'm set. But thank you for thinking of me in the craziness of packing up and moving. I do wish we could have got together one more time before you left, but schedule was haywire, and I know yours was.
i just enjoy the term loved on
Rachel- so good to see another post from you and to know that you are settled (as much as possible) into your new life! ACC is thriving, growing, praising, happy, and seeing God's presence in all we do! The Chi Rho kids are starting a new year with awesome kids...the leaders, myself and Steve Roberts, are learning more and more from them each day! The kids asked me to find out what your address is, so that we can send an appreciation card/letter/video(?) to you. You may email your address to me at campbellrn@aol.com, if you don't mind! Keeping you and your brother, along with your Beloved, in our prayers! Debi
