The Revolving Door

Since we moved in this apartment at the end of December, our place has had a revolving door.

January-March. . . Sara, Esther, Dottie. At the end of this time Sara moved back to the U.S., much to my dismay.

March-June . . . Esther, Dottie, Fiona. Esther left for a six week visit to the states during this time, so it was really Fiona and me accompanied by Esther's stuff. At the end of this time, Fiona unexpectedly had to move back to England.

July . . . Dottie, Esther, Revo. This was a crazy month for us all. Esther came back in the 2nd week. I left for a week and a half for Dahab and Alex. Revo, a friend of mine and Esther's, stayed with us for a good part that month. Esther left again to house sit for some friends of ours. It feels like we are in and out of the apartment, but not really living here.

August . . . Esther, Dottie, Dorothee, a girl who I don't know her name. This coming month (as you all know), I leave after one week. A girl who is only here for a month will move in today. Dorothee will move in sometime in the middle of the month.

The future beyond that. . . who knows.

All the moving in and out has made living here interesting. At first I think of all the inconveniences of switching things up so much and getting used to living with someone only to have that person gone and you have to get used to someone else. But really it hasn't been that inconvenient. I have enjoyed living with each and every person thus far. It has really been good and I think this place has been a huge blessing and an answer to prayers for all of us who have come to stay here.
