A post from Sheryl
Just got a quick e-mail from Jon and he is swamped with work so is unable to take time to post to his blog.
In a note from Jon yesterday I heard about his new room. It is a "two-man room about 7 feet by 10, single beds in it, kind of double gym-type wall locker to put my clothes in, two chairs (cheesy plastic lawn furniture, which is still pretty good when you can get it, beats sitting on the floor or a stool), and a fabricated 3 x 2’ foot table (plywood and 2x3s) with a small bookcase mounted on it between the beds. My room-mate seems like a cool guy, and we worked together to clean up the room before we moved in all our stuff today (he beat the carpets, I swept, and together we took the furniture outside and dusted it all off). Everything in the room was coated with this fine loamy dust which is not surprising, as this same dust pretty much covers every surface -- EVERY SURFACE -- here. If it doesn't have dust on it now, not to worry, it will."
Jon is also getting his room all fixed up in true "Jon Moran form." Jon has managed to scrounge various items -- board for his bed, new mattress, old bookcase with one shelf, unclaimed linens -- and has plans for or has already put them to good use. There is no such thing as "junk to be thrown away" when it comes to Jon. He has AC in his room and it works -- well, once every two weeks. Jon and his roommate are going to be able to rent a small refrigerator to keep cold drinks in there room, so he was pleased with that. I'm hoping he can borrow a digital camera and send pictures back soon.
Well, that's the news that I have to share with you. Thanks for continuing to pray for Jon. If you want a quick update on Joshua and me, my blog is http://2006marinewife.blogspot.com/.
