The World According To Chris Brewer

So today was my final day as a member of the active-duty US Air Force. I had actually been on terminal leave for the past 11.5 days, but now it’s all over and I can file for unemployment tomorrow. Looks like I am eligible for about $300 per week, and that’s even taxed. Not bad though.

Aftan and I went to my old church and the one I consider my home, New Horizons Church in Washougal, WA. Didn’t realize how far of a drive it actually was from Scappoose (took about 45 min. to get there) but it was more than worth it — it was so wonderful to see many old friends, introduce everyone to Aftan, and hear Pastor Smith preach once again. It was wonderful to see everyone’s excitement when I told them I’d be coming back every Sunday and Wednesday that I could.

Tammra Ells told me about a job that I will end up applying for this week, and it pays pretty good…a janitor for the Camas School District. It would pay $16 an hour and I would more than likely be working at night, but she said if I worked more than four hours per day I would receive full benefits. My weekends would be free, which is more than I would be able to ask for with any other job. Even though it has nothing to do with broadcasting, it would be great to get that job because I could move to Camas and have a shorter commute to church, work, and to visit Aftan down in Corvallis. Pray everything goes well when I apply.

Sorry I haven’t updated in the past few days, we just got dial-up out here and even though it isn’t much, it is something and it allows me to check MySpace, Facebook and my site every now and then.

Tonight I will be driving Aftan back to Corvallis and staying down there for the night. It’s supposed to snow everywhere so that should be interesting. I’ll start my massive job hunt this week too.

Hope everything’s going good for you all out there.
