The funks and the tanks

In 6 weeks my parents will be wrapping up a short work week to fly to South Carolina to help Karl & I pack and move out of our first house and into a very large, climate controlled storage unit. That's at least how I mask their visit, which is actually solely to help me gain the mental stability and emotional strength that I'm already starting to lose over this whole thing. A week later Karl and I will be on our way to spend some precious time in Texas before he leaves for his South Korea jig. All this to say that Callie, my older sister, just got on a plane to head back from Sumter and I'm sad. She was our last (planned) visitor here in our first house... Next comes less fun things- like cross-country drives and goodbyes. So I'm extra sad. I love company, especially sister company, and my time with her was full and fulfilling and emptied my very full lonely-tank that somehow filled in the two weeks between her visit and Emma's. So I'm in my normal company-just-left funk but it's deepened quite a bit by this next-comes-Korea funk. So just having to rely on Jesus to explode that lonely tank and rescue me from the funks.
Planning to share all the happies about Callie's visit tomorrow! And trust me, there are A LOT!

  1. I'm sorry, Hannah!! I know the feeling...and I feel for you and Karl.
    I am praying that trip to Texas will involve coming to spend some time with us here in El Paso. We would REALLY love to be able to spend some time with ya'll before his departure!!!! Praying for the weeks to come.
