Moving!


I am moving in like 20 days!!! That’s right everyone, I have found a place to live in Regina and am moving there the first week in July! I am actually excited about! I am busy packing/sorting and cleaning! It’s crazy!

I know that God is with me on this move and that He will be with me no matter where I go. That is helping me not to be to stressed about it. I am also trying to cut back on my worrying and not worry to much about this move. Every time I start to worry about it I stop and make myself think of three positive things about the move. It’s actually working pretty well! I am looking forward to hopefully getting to know my Regina friends a bit better while I am living there.

I should be used to packing and unpacking things by now. After all I have done it six times but its one of those things that even though its gets easier with practice you still don’t get used to it. I must say though that after six times I have a pretty good system down for packing! Haha

Anyways I should get back to spending time with family/friends and pets as much as I can before I move!!!

Shalom Everyone!

WOW!

Wowie! Has it really been over a month since I have sat down and typed out something to put on here! I am going to have to make it a point to write something at least once a week! I do have a few things to share, some good and some bad. First off the bad. As most of you already know sweet precious Kolbjorn passed away on May 21st. That was pretty hard for me to take. I felt pretty down for a week about it, and I kept remembering the sweet things he would say and do. It is comforting though to know that Kol is with Yeshua and that I WILL see him again. It’s funny though that I still keep expecting to see him, I wonder how long it will take before I stop wondering that? I feel so blessed that I got to know sweet little Kol. He was such an inspiration to me. He always had a smile on his face, was ready with a hug and could always make me laugh. You will be missed sweet Kol!

A couple weeks ago I went camping with a couple friends of mine that I met at camp last year. I hadn’t seen either one of them since last August so it was a lot of fun. Both of them are completely hilarious( in a good way!) and they kept me laughing. It was so nice just to be able to hang out with friends and laugh. I am so blessed to have them both as friends. Lots of good memories were made that weekend for all three of us I am sure! They were even sweet enough to be willing to eat gluten free for the weekend. Brave, brave people!
While camping I learned that ticks are very intrusive little things…ohh and icky! My friends were not really impressed by them so I was removing them off their clothes/ getting them out of their tents etc. I was handling it pretty well( I am not really scared of ticks) until on the last night as I was going to sleep I felt one crawling up my back. It was pretty much an immediate strip down in the tent to get rid of it! Ugh! Then when I came home and showered I had three come crawling out of my hair, one attached to my leg and a week after the trip I found one embedded in my head that was already huge and white. Lovely. Thank you for taking up residence in my head but I didn’t have a sign that said “space for rent”. On our next camping trip ,tick repellent is going to be the first thing I pack!

Camping was also a nice way to de-stress after the passing of Kol. Just to be able to hang out, laugh and share stories did wonders for me. I think they should consider camping with friends a form of therapy! It does wonders, it really does! Thank you both for the amazing trip and taking the time to hang out with me. I appreciate it sooo much!

Also I have been making progress on the moving to Regina thing. I am actually looking for places and starting to pack. I am getting really excited and I am looking forward to it. Regina reminds me of Camrose so I hope that I feel at home there right away. Please keep it in your prayers that I find a place to live there soon! I must practice patience though, trust God and remember that things happen in Gods time not in mine! Patience Krystal, Patience! God will provide a place in His time! Easier said than done but hopefully with a little practice it will soon be easy!

My cousins grad is this weekend! Wow! Where has time gone? I still cant believe that she is old enough to be graduating from high school. It’s crazy. I don’t think I will believe it until I see her walking across the stage getting her diploma! Maybe not even then! Some days I still find it hard to believe that I graduated from high school Haha! Gods blessing to you in your future Hallie! Maybe the Lord be with you wherever you go!

Also Gods blessing to you my dear sweet friends and may the Lord bless you and keep you, may the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you, may the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace!

Shalom!
