    Default Doin' the Happy Dance!

    We found a great house to rent! I truly wasn't expecting a house in the country...ever...but since the Lord has led me to this point, I'm not going to complain. I wish we didn't have to do this...move, I mean. But since the foreclosure and going to eviction court(thank God they gave us a 30-day stay) and basically just being scared all the time....now at least I can sleep at night and not be afraid for my kids.

    The new place is bigger, plus the lot is 1 1/2 acres. The house is on one side of the property, so the yard is HUGE! And, the owners said that if we like it there, they will work with us when we're ready/able to start looking into financing a house. The kids love it there and are already making plans for their rooms lol! I'm just looking forward to Saturday when I can start cleaning, painting, etc. There's not a lot to do, really. I want to bust my hiney and get the inside done so we can move in, we have until the 29th to be out of here. Then we get to start on the outside lol!

    I know I have vented a lot on this site, and I just wanted to share something GOOD for a change!
