Where we are now

Well, folks it has been quite a while since I have posted and I know everyone probably things we have dropped off the face of the earth. Well, to be honest some days I feel like we have and if we actually haven't then maybe we should. Am I making any sense? Probably not. I guess I will try to give you an update on what is going on with us. We are back in the states right now and although we still have A Heart for Haiti I do not at this date know when we will be returning to Haiti.

We had some issues while we were there in Haiti that for many reasons I don't believe I should disclose on my blog. But let's just say it was not in our best interest at that time to remain in Haiti. So after much thought, prayer and many many tears we booked tickets and returned to the states with only the luggage we were allowed to bring on the airplane. So we had to leave everything in Haiti except the clothes we could stuff into our luggage.

In order to originally make our move to Haiti we were trying our very best to raise support and for some reason had a very difficult time raising money. Guess people think that you can move to a third world country and live on nothing. Well we moved out of the home we were living in and lived with our daughters for a couple of months while I still worked a job. I quit my job a couple of weeks before leaving and we sold our pickup truck and we got rid of all of our furniture from our home and put a few personal items and keepsakes in storage and made the big move to Haiti.

So now where are we you ask? We are back living with our daughters. Only this time I have no job and we have no pickup truck. So we find ourselves in a catch 22 situation. I need a job but with no vehicle I can't find a job and without a job we can't get a vehicle. So there is our situation we find ourselves in. We have no money, no job and no vehicle. We are getting ready to celebrate (I use that word very loosely) our 40th wedding anniversary and we have never been in this situation in 40 years. To say the least some days it is very depressing.

As I said before we both still love Haiti and the Haitian people very much but at this time do not know what the future holds for us. Some days I am very positive that we will be returning to Haiti and other days I am equally positive that we will never see Haiti again. I guess only God knows.
