On Thursday I will fly to Fl to look for housing in the Brandon area, Hillsburough County where my daughter Lisa and her family live. I am facing a series of possible surgeries and decided I would rather move now than during a medical crisis. Get to know the community, support and medical professionals.
I will be in Fl for about five days and I think that will give me plenty of time to see the housing nearest to Lisa and to make an informed decision. I can always stay here and try again in the spring if I don't find a place this trip. Put my adds out on Craig's list-Tampa and using my daughter's cell phone number to arrange visits because wouldn't you know it I just lost mine while on retreat this week!
I am looking for a two bedroom apartment-so folks can visit, I assume my Northern relatives would like to do so in the winter. My son and his wife Jodi have returned to FL this past month; Jodi at the Un of FL in Gainesville and Jason in Tampa working for the DOD. I hope that our relationship might be more easily healed if I move to FL. I pray God will touch Jason's heart with the grace of forgiveness towards me.
If I move to Brandon I will be close to my Bishop Bridget Mary who resides in FL with her father from November to May in Sarasota. I would hope that I could preside at liturgy for her community until she arrives. I hope that I will be able to begin a small intentional faith community in Brandon. I hope that is where God is leading me if I move.
