First of all, prayer buddy, if you could say a prayer that when I take my car to the dealership tomorrow, we find a minor problem (or no problem at all!!). The check engine light has been going on and off over the last couple of months and I finally made an appointment to take it in. Technically, the car belongs to my parents, but we have been borrowing it for several months because my dad can't drive due to seizures. We pay for all insurance, upkeep and maintenence. It would be really helpful to have this fix be inexpensive because...
We are FINALLY buying a house. We tried to buy a house a few years ago when Junior was first born, but the deal didn't go through (it was a short-sale nightmare; after five months of waiting we still had no answer whatsoever and we gave up and moved back into an apartment. With Junior approaching 3 years old soon, we really need yard space for him to run off some of his extra energy. We had the inspection last week and found some major repairs need to be made to the home immediately. Repairs such as a new tear off roof, a new furnace and a new water heater. We renegotiated with the sellers for a purchase price reduction, but now we have to figure out contrators and find good prices on all these repairs. It's difficult for me to coordinate making calls to contractors, our real estate agent and mortgage lady. My husband would love to help more, but his job makes it very difficult for him to make calls or go to appointments during the day. My job is about 45 mintues away from the house and is also very demanding. We are go-go-go from 5:30am until 9pm every day. Please pray for patience, guidance and peace as we go through this whole process.
Now on a happy note, I bought some amazing shoes the other day :-) I walked into a store and the first pair of shoes I found were a beautiful zebra print with pink accents. They only had one pair in stock...and they were my size. Size 11 wide. Who would've expected that? Since my 1st pregnancy my feet have grown one entire size and are now wide. Let's just say that 11W is not usually an off-the-shelf kind of purchase. That was totally God giving me a hug.
Good luck on the house buying! And way to go on the shoe buying. ;)
