So life is going on,
Hung out with some people that my boy Tommy knew so that was a good time, it’d be nice to meet up with them again since we naturally have a lot in common because army.
So my house purchase is kinda at a standstill, the price range of houses that are in the area I want to live in are kinda out of my price range? But I also need to find out if I’m able to apply for this interest free Deposit, it’s worded like this:
“8.3.11 Interest on a short term loan
Core benefit
CF members are entitled to reimbursement of the interest on a short-term personal loan or a personal line of credit required solely to pay the minimum deposit on the purchase of a principal residence or a new house construction at the new place of duty.
The required minimum deposit amount must be in accordance with the written contract to purchase and shall not exceed the minimum amount required by the local market.
For new construction, when the building agreement describes a payment schedule or advance payments, the interest on those payments is not considered reimbursable.”
Anyways aside from that, I’ve been thinking about my upcoming move on or before April 27,
Basically the bottom line is I can probably store everything in the basement that my other stuff is in already.
I could ask one of my bosses to help me out if I need a room for a short term to sleep in basically.
I’ve already applied to CFHA, for a PMQ, I talked to the padre about my situation but I’m pretty sure I’m on the low priority list, so that’ll probably take a while to sort out.
Accommodations can get me a bed for $250 I’m pretty sure since I’m on P3 pay now.
Umm, so Jeri is almost through adopting Luna, which is super cool for her.
It’s obviously not the best situation from an objective standpoint, but I really hope that everything works out for Luna’s parents and their relationship.
Honestly it’s kinda tough mentally for me to be physically removed from my friends and family, I only get to see them every so often, and when I do I usually have to focus on the most economically viable route for me, so Christmas flights and summer drives. I can’t believe I didn’t do that last year I really regret that, I should have thought ahead and found out more information about the entitlements that I get since my immediate next of kin is in Hythe.
Oh yeah I went out to the churches pancake night so that was a good time,
For my fitness goals I’ve got my forces test in April, I don’t know if I’ll be able to get platinum without a lot of cardio work. I want to talk to a psp person about it but I’ll have to make that happen.
There isn’t actually much going on in my life, but there actually is a lot going on in my life, yknow?
It’s weird, but I acknowledge that it’s my own frame of reference and having to move is a huge deal. It’s going to change my whole routine and that’s probably the biggest mental issue thing that bothers me.
I do have a huge amount of resources at work because of the freedom my work gives me, full hygiene facilities, washer/dryer, bbq and fridge, and nothing but time to cook some lunch and supper.
I don’t want to change my routine,
I should make more of an effort to go into the base gym, that’s the biggest routine I should create, bringing shoes, gym shorts, socks?, and shirts to work.
Figuring out what time of day works best with my work routine, knowing what I’ll need to do afterwards, whether it’s cooking or packing for the next work day.
Kind of an aside, Horizon: Zero Dawn makes me ask philosophical questions, and I’m not sure if it’s fun or super lame, but I think the difference is alcohol.
Like when I was watching Rick and Morty while having badly mixed
I can’t remember if I’ve decided a good place to put in new names of people I’ve hung out with but let’s just try to start putting in in between my personal thoughts section (start of each post usually) and the church section.
Whoa Jordan you’re making each post have sections? Bold of you to assume anyone else reads this ahaha.
So this week I met new people,

Pastor Lisa Chisholm-Smith
Story about Lisa reading Jesus restoring a young girl to life,
‘Daughter, your faith has made you well’
Matthew 9:18-26
The fine print of the laws of the woman’s dire situation, concerning bodily emissions.
They are very egalitarian
Women in biblical times menstruated much less frequently, they were pregnant or Breastfeeding during their fertile years.
She is sick, socially isolated, and destitute.
Her courage to reach out, and trust in Jesus ability to heal her is very important
It also relates to the girl who Jesus told to get up,
By restoring both to new life, the daughter literally, and the woman socially and emotionally, Jesus shows that he cares for all.
Mark has a difference in that Jesus gives priority to the poor, he stopped to find out who touched him.
The girls father understood that Jesus had power over death itself,
Exstasis: used in marks version
Jesus cloak had four tassels, which were memory aides to recall Gods attributes
Matthew says take heart daughter, for your faith has made you well,
Daughter is used in all 3 synoptic gospels
“...Women were first at the cradle and last at the cross...”
