A New Habit

It has taken me a week to finally get the internet working on my computer. Turns out I was entering the wrong network password. But I'm good to go now!

Since I'm embarking on this new chapter in my life, I'm attempting to pick up a few new habits, including making my bed every morning and spending time with the Lord every morning. So far, I'm five for five. I'm wondering which will be the most difficult to keep up. Something else I'm giving a go of is keeping up a blog.

This blog is your window into the poverty and beauty of the region and people of Eastern Kentucky. It's also your window into my life here in Appalachia. Those of you reading this, I'm missing not being able to see you or talk to you as regularly as I'd like. So stop by here every once in a while - and after you leave, send me an e-mail or leave me a message updating me on your life. But I guess this blog is largely for myself too. If this first week is any indication of what this year is to be like then I know I'm going to hear countless stories and learn precious lessons that I am going to want to remember for my own growth and benefit. If I can get something from them, then perhaps, so can you.

Love and Prayers
