WHAT...we have to move!

Well this year has been so interesting with all my health challenges and then the big bomb shell, we have been asked to move! God has a funny way of doing things sometimes and I just have to laugh at His timing and realize that everything works together for good. Our friends purchased a house in November and were wanting us to move in and rent from them till they moved up here in 5 years. Considering my health challenges and Greg's work schedule we just knew we didn't want to throw a move into the mix so we declined the offer...only to find out 2 weeks after they rented the place that our landlords were selling the house and we would have to move by May 1st. WHAT...instant tears to my face! I LOVE this house or more importantly I love the view, I am SO tired all the time that to actually put a move into this was just too overwhelming and I really didn't want to rent again. What were we to do. I contacted a Realtor friend of mine who suggested that we could get a pre-approved mortgage and maybe could afford to buy, really??? So we first went to the banker to see if this was even possible and was pleasantly surprised that this might just work. NOW...to find a house, which was a wee bit of a challenge as there were houses out there but not really where we wanted and or within our price range or not nice at all. After 12 houses, we finally found the one. It is beautiful, has very large garage, LOTS of RV parking, only 5 years old, very nicely decorated inside and it just felt like home. After a number of times back and forth, we got the place! Now we just have to wait 6 weeks to move and have a WHOLE lot of purging, dump runs, packing and cleaning to do before then. GOD IS GOOD INDEED...He knew this house was the perfect one for us!
