...........
I just got word that Steve, Chris & Christina are coming to visit me on Wednesday & Thursday! I could hardly sleep last night cause I was so excited!
I can't wait to see my husband and friends! I've made some nice friends here, but it's just not the same as having friends that you have a decade of history with.
Steve & I will be looking at a house on Wednesday morning that we're interested in purchasing, so hopefully we'll come to some conclusions and maybe make an offer. If we decide against this one then it's back to the drawing board and we'll basically have to wait until something new comes on the market as there's not really any other properties in all of Madison that we're interested in (that's in our price range). I hate to be too picky, but buying a house is a large investment, so it's not like we're just picking out a pair of cheap flip flops from old navy or something. Sometimes it pays to be picky, I'd like to find something sooner rather than later, but I don't want to buy something just to buy something either.
The job hunt it going okay, I've actually had 2 offers, both of which I've turned down. They're jobs that I just think I would hate. I hate to be too picky with that too because I really need a job, but in the long run I would rather have lived uncomfortably for a few extra weeks knowing that down the road I would end up with a job that I at least somewhat enjoy rather than take something that would make me miserable 24/7. I should be hearing back from one of the jobs that I'm really interested in later on this week, so hopefully I'll have good news there, and if not I'll just to start from scratch again.
It's crazy how not stressed out I've been with all of this housing/job stuff. I am a person that likes to have all of my ducks in a row and have everything carefully mapped out, but with this moving process God has given me some kind of supernatural grace to just go with the flow and now allow myself to freak out. It's really been pretty cool. A lot of my friends have commented that they're totally surprised with how "ok" I am with all of these unknowns.
Anyway...so that's the update on all of that. It's funny that my life is so crazy now but still just incredibly boring. I guess I just must be a loser. :)

I'm having a hard time believing that Little Miss Detail is not freaking out about all these unknowns! That in itself almost makes me believe in God!
you are not a loser.
silly.
