Well, another week has gone by in the Sherwood truck/ Home, and we're still not getting the miles/money we would like to see. But that's OK. Or at least that's what I'm telling myself. I have reason to believe that this is a test from God. I'm not sure but I think it is. You see even tho we're not making what we can/ would like to be, we're still doing more than treading water. We're above survival mode. Bills are getting paid and some is still getting put aside into saving for a house. Here's the catch tho. As many of you may already know, We've been looking forward to buying a house for a while now. We've been promised a large financial windfall and have just been waiting on it. All the while still "window shopping" for a house. Keeping our eye on the market and what not. We've fallen in love with several houses over the last year, only to see them taken away from us before we could even think to snatch them. We don't really want to mortgage anything and would like to be able to buy cash out right. Besides that it's tough to get a mortgage now-a-days. Especially when your credit score looks as bad as mine does. Anyway, I know that the perfect house is out there for us, but this waiting game is getting on my nerves. I know I have to be patient, I know God will provide, I know, I know.... But MAN! REALLY! The day before I was informed that my financial windfall had finally come in, the latest "gotta have it house" went off the market! Back to square one. Back to searching the thousands of foreclosed home in the area we are hoping to buy in. Only to have another stolen from under us?
Anyway, house or no house, we are planning on moving out of our apartment in Joplin, MO. We're just going to put everything in our storage unit in MI. untill we can find a house. For those of you interested the tenantive date for that move is April 28- May 2, 2011. If you've got a strong back and some spare time that weekend, we would sure appreciate the help moving things into the storage unit. If not, that's ok. We'll use your prayers in finding the perfect house in the mean time.
Just another ramble.... thats all.
