We have found, as a family, a beautiful home. We were suppose to be in that home last week, but as I said below we are having "loan approval issues". So as much as we "love" living in our 2 bedroom "luxurious, air conditioned" apartment.....we are officially DONE! We have been living out of a suitcase since Nov 2010, we have no idea where anything is, and the one bathroom gig is getting a little old! Not to mention we are living ABOVE our very "interesting" landlord who has on occasion not been very thrilled with us. We were asked, on more than one occasion, to walk like "quiet indians" in the morning and if we could not flush the toilet in the wee hours(seriously?) plus water leaking in the sink, water pressure not working, no dishwasher, every time you take a shower the fire alarm goes off, and literally we are packed in like sardines with all of our stuff we have refused to unpack! Now, I think all in all, we have all been fantastic sports. We have moved so many times in the last 3 1/2 years, and we have really been totally fine with any and all of the "situations", but I think now we see the light at the end of the tunnel. We see a place we will call our own and as much as we have been so wonderfully positive along the way I think we have reached our "end" I mean in just this past 10 months we will have moved 11 TIMES! Oh my lord....we are NUTS!
But seriously, when you really look at it, we have a roof over our heads, food on the table, transportation to where we need to go, our health and most of all each other. That is what keeps us going...and remembering to put out positive energy instead of negative energy is the healthier way to be. Sometimes difficult to do, but it truly is the way to go! So even though life may seem a real mess, ya gotta brush yourself off and say" it could always be worse" and suck it up!!!!!
In the end we have been blessed and will continued to be blessed....... it is all in how you look at....eh? And all in all, it has brought us closer(more ways than you need to know) as a family. If you can live literally on top of one another, you aren't doing too bad, plus all the memories and stories we will cherish forever....... Not too bad!
