1st OKC move

Last Friday, Nov 3, Oblate Andrew and I loaded up part of my house and then part of Shirley's house for the first move. Shirley, her mother, sister and brother-in-law also helped load and pack the truck (thanks to all!). We left early Friday evening and arrived in OKC and were welcomed by Abbot Jim at 4 a.m. (yes, you read right!!!).

We signed the lease and moved the first load in Saturday at Noon (thanks Abbot and Matt!), bought blinds and curtains and watched the Sooners win that evening. Sunday afternoon, we cleaned, unpacked some, and hung blinds and curtains Sunday afternoon, then flew back and got home late Sunday night. Then--back to work Monday morning!

15 days working. I have to say, we have both been tired and I have been dealing with aching muscles all week. Needless to say, we both slept in this morning (I more then Shirley...!).

After the wedding and honeymoon, we take load 2 (the last!) up to Mercy House. It's 3 weeks away--getting close!

Thanks be to God.
