Time is still moving on in our blended household. People are moving on with their lives and slowly forgetting about Katrina and Rita... let's see, were those ice skaters, actresses, or hurricanes? Yet we remain steadfast in our commitment to give the Gomez family a home until such time God sees fit to move them elsewhere. It could be 3 weeks from now... it could be 3falseAmy2005-09-21T11:54:00-05:002005-10-01T18:06:06Z2005-09-21T18:30:13Ztag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5364437.post-112732741323278410Strange Ways
We're settling into a routine here at the Main/Gomez home. I'm now getting up every morning at 6:30 to drive John' to school so he can be in marching band. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I take Lee to the Park Lindsay, had us over to their house one Sunday not too long ago and they mentioned that they were thinking of getting a new truck for Lindsay. If they did, they were going to givefalseAmy2005-09-16T22:51:00-05:002005-09-17T04:08:29Z2005-09-17T04:08:29Ztag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5364437.post-112693010968172282"Project Gomez" ....continued
What a week. So much has happened... there's no way I can tell it all. I'll just hit some of the high points.
First of all, thank you, Elizabeth, Kathy, Katie & Doug for your generous donations. Every little bit helps and I have told the Gomez family of your generosity. John' Paul (13) enrolled in school and joined the marching band. He plays the trumpet, butfalseAmy2005-09-12T17:52:00-05:002005-09-18T15:18:53Z2005-09-12T23:16:50Ztag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5364437.post-112656701036675141"Project Gomez"
We have a family! I don't know where to start. We have a family of 5 - the Gomez Family. Dad is still in a shelter because of medical needs that can only be met at a medical facility/shelter. Lee (the mom), Michael (20), Ana (18), and John (13) are now residing in our upstairs bedrooms. They arrived this afternoon.
They hadn't eaten all day, so we made a trip to WhataburgerfalseAmy2005-09-12T01:53:00-05:002005-09-18T15:39:15Z2005-09-12T07:39:54Ztag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5364437.post-112651079422331611I Was a Stranger, and You Invited Me In... (Part 2)
I feel like a new mother. Or maybe this is what it feels like to be an adoptive mother about to receive her first child. WE HAVE A FAMILY. It's not through Starbucks, as we had hoped, but our home was offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Plus, I found out that most of the displaced Starbucks partners had found places to live with friendsfalseAmy2005-09-05T15:53:00-05:002005-09-12T08:57:34Z2005-09-12T08:53:42Ztag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5364437.post-112651522249578626I Was a Stranger, and You Invited Me In...
That's from Matthew 25. Here's the whole story, beginning with verse 31.
31"When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his throne in heavenly glory. 32All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33He will put thefalseAmy2005-05-02T12:03:00-05:002005-09-18T15:40:56Z2005-05-03T17:29:05Ztag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5364437.post-111514134561393625He Said: The Best Part of Waking Up
She Said: You're Gonna Pay Me For This??
Today is my first day at my new job. I was re-hired at Starbucks. You can read about it on Michael's blog by going to the "He Said" link.
Michael is napping now. I'll spend the next two hours preparing for one hour of work. I tend to do that -- over prepare. I'll spend two days preparing for a dinner with friends thatfalse
