Most of you who know me really well are aware of my "creature of routine" lifestyle. I am sad to report that those days are slipping through the cracks as of late. Life seems to be changing its course right before my eyes and I can't seem to grab on to anything solid. Take for example the two fraudulent charges that appeared on my credit card last Saturday morning. Apparently, someone decided to check-in to a hotel room in Malaysia and then shortly, thereafter, purchased some expensive luggage at a local store there. How that happened is beyond me. My emotions upon finding out all of this bizarre news was of confusion and relief. I say relief because the kind folks at Chase Bank quickly acted and closed the account. I don't have to pay close to $600 in charges. Alas, they do not release the details of the investigation once it's solved. That's good news for the thief because I would have sent a singing telegram in the form of Sanjaya all the way to Malaysia...and the thief would've suffered until his or her ears started to bleed.
So back to the life-changing stuff. Although it seems like there's not enough time in the day for me to accomplish all of the things I want to do (blogging, exercising, watching movies, talking to Amanda, and etc.), I feel it's a good progression in life for me. Moreover, I'm finding myself going to bed before 1:00 in the morning most days now as opposed to 2:00 or 3:00 - hence no entries as of late. Please pardon my choice to slumber instead of staying up and writing the night away. I think once summer comes, the days will become more routine - which will be NICE!!! - and I'll be able to get back into the swing of things. Life continues to bring on adjustments that necessitate good transitional skills from both me and Amanda...not to mention our circle of friends and immediate family. The transition has really been a sweet and beautiful thing, however, I'd be lying if I said that it was easy. God is showing me clearly what it means to not always think of myself. His slow and steady unveiling is mere preparation of a much more abundant life to come. It naturally fulfills as the precision of each new step brings on a much more vast view of His abiding grace. I can't believe He has the patience to wait on me. I'm just so glad that Amanda was there waiting for me when I was ready. He's growing me in ways that never would've been possible without Amanda in my life.

Until next time, may this entry suffice as an update to what's going on in my ever changing life. All the while He remains steady and unchanging...
