Doesn’t it seem like I just said that? Maybe because I did…? :smile:

After the first day of looking for houses this past week, John and I were getting more and more discouraged. Everything we found–through the newspaper, by talking to property management companies, and looking online–was either nice and way too expensive, or in what I affectionately called “Scaryville.” We weren’t too fond of Scaryville. :grin: We thought we were looking at a long week of… not much.

In the evening, we called on the two last houses we had on our list, and set up appointments to look at both within the hour. The first was not too bad a house, and a great price… but smack dab in the middle of Scaryville itself. We went on to the next… and immediately knew we wouldn’t be finding anything like this again! Beautiful little house, in a gated community even!, with a nice yard, allowing pets without even having to pay extra, and at a price we could work with. We left, praying that God would open the doors for this house if it was His will… which He did. The next night we went over and signed a lease, for the first time for both of us. :smile: So we have a nice little two bedroom house, and about three weeks until we move into it.

Now it’s back into moving mode for us, and our first “real” military move, complete with movers, house cleaning and all that good stuff. I’m feeling a wee bit worn out right now… but this wonderful hubby of mine is being sure I rest up as much as possible before things get really crazy after this week.

And, hey, anyone want a wood computer cabinet, two, uh, lovely big entertainment center shelves bought by a then-unmarried guy, an old recliner with a khaki slipcover, an electric washer and dryer, or a big huge toy chest? Because we don’t. :grin:
