Moving Day Approaches

Sorry for lack of posts but been busy working and packing. Moving next week so won't be online much now until we've moved in and got the internet sorted. x

On the Move

Ok, so we're moving. We found a home and everything fell into place. I can't quite believe it but it's true. It's God's perfect timing. That much, I'm sure about. We're moving back to my hometown which isn't what we wanted but an opportunity arose that we couldn't pass up.

A couple I knew from years ago, from my old church, are our new landlords. I saw on "Facebook" that they wanted to rent out their home to "Bless" another couple with a low rent in order to save money to perhaps be able to buy their own home some day.

To cut a long story short, I made a phone call, prayed about it, viewed the house and now having a moving date! Both of us are so happy. And the couple we're renting from are really happy too. We've known each for over 20 yrs so there's a lot of trust there already. It's just a huge blessing all around.

The house is an end of terrace, Edwardian "2 up, 2 down" extended to 4 bedrooms. It's perfect for us. Enough room for our office, craft room for me and a spare bedroom for family and friends to stay. And I also get to have a garden! Yay!

Although we didn't want to move back to my hometown as we really love it here, we also know that it's the right thing for this moment in time. It enables us to have more space for less rent which means we get to save money. Not only from paying less rent but because we're going to be living near my family, less fuel costs travelling back and forth the 40 min drive. All round it's good for us.

I know this is God's plan for us. Everything about it is answered prayer and destiny.

So now I'm in moving mode. Ha! We move in four weeks time. Lots to do! I'm excited!

September

Already. Wow. How'd that happen? I'm glad September's here. It's almost Autumn which means it's almost Winter and Christmas!

I'm still not back at my pc in a full time capacity. So much going on in my life. Arrrghhh. Some good. Some not. Some exciting. It's my ex-mother-in-law's funeral today. For lots of reasons, I won't be going but I will be staying at my mum's for the day looking after my granddaughter while my kids are at their grandmother's funeral. And I'll be "there" for them if they need me afterwards.

We're also in the process of finding a new place to live. We've outgrown our little flat here. So now actively looking for a new home to rent.

I've not had any time to paint so I'm finding that a little frustrating but hoping things will settle down into a nice routine once we've moved.
