It's been a long time since the last post and, as always a lot has happened! To sum it up VERY briefly...
January: Became active members of Capital City Grace - a church in downtown Columbus
March: I accepted a position as a foreclosure attorney liaison with a large bank and became the "provider of benefits" for the first time ever!!

April - May: Actively sought out a new home
June: Luke celebrated a birthday, underwent surgery, and experienced the disappointment of his company shutting down
July: Celebrated our 6th anniversary (still can't believe it!) with a trip to the big apple which, each time we go forces me to question why on earth I'm still in the midwest. I LOVE NYC!
August: Luke has had plenty of interviews and a couple really positive job prospects. He informed me he thinks this time off has been exactly what he needed and is thankful for the opportunity to slow down.
Ironically, after having been in our apartment for 1 1/2 years now, we're finally making an attempt at creating a "home-y" environment as we intend to stay here until next Spring. It's funny how a space which was initially intended to remain temporary (as in, we would stay here until our home sold in May of '09) has become something more long-term.
Will continue to send updates in the near future!
