Life, Change, and all that other stuff

This summer has been one of significant learning and change for me.  I have to say it started with a retreat weekend the last weekend in July, which I shall forever consider a milestone event in my life.  Significant personal and spiritual revelations.  The uncovering of lies and courage to embrace freedom.  (Yes, I know I'm not being specific, but the experience was deeply personal and not something I wish to blog about casually.)

And then August
- HMR (Health Management Resources) Health program resulting in weight loss, increased endurance, and hope for a healthy and life filled future :o)
- Implementing/ leading change at work
- And an announcement that I'm leaving Greenlee Louisville and relocating to Illinois.  Greenlee is moving me to become the Plant Manager at their Genoa, Illinois facility.  New challenges and increased responsibilities.
- A letter was written and mailed - a hard letter, but needful one.  Believing this situation will be yet another example of God working all things together for good.

So September is going to contain more change
- Projects to start and close out at Louisville
- Continued journey with HMR
- And mentally preparing for a new home, a new job

And October
- New job, starting October 1
- Moving to someplace in Illinois - where exactly TBD - but it will be in the Rockford/ Genoa area.  Praying for wisdom on whether I should buy or rent.
- HMR phase 2 (where I introduce lean meats and grains into the diet)
- And the beginning of building a new life for myself in Illinois. 

Life, change, and all that other stuff . . . :o)
