So I've been waiting to post for a while, because I wanted to take pictures of my bedroom/bathroom which Angela came and helped me paint! Yeah, I still don't have pictures taken, because I have picture frames everywhere which never got hanged.
And never will.
Allow me to explain.
My landlord called me earlier this evening and told me that she sold her house in California and would be moving back at the end of April.
Yes, she would've given us more notice, but her house sold a lot quicker than expected and she is pretty impulsive. Also, we are not on any lease.
So, I thought we wouldn't be moving. I painted our bedroom and bathroom. We finally put our flooring in. We started working on the yard (by which I mean, we pulled out all the plants and weird landscaping, only now to have to put it back as best we can). And I have no idea where we are going to live.
In the least, I know we are moving by May 1st, and although I am definitely in shock about it (not really surprised, I guess, but I just can't quite wrap my head around it) I know everything will work out and feel at peace about it all. There are hopefully some options for places for us to live, and I guess there is always Jeremy's parents again (but I'm hoping that doesn't happen).
I will still take a picture of my bedroom before I start taking it apart though, so you can see it! I asked Angela to come and we got both rooms painted. The next day Jeremy and his dad put in the flooring in our bathroom and I started decorating. I made us a duvet cover from some sheets and also put together some artwork. SAD. All my work. Oh well, at least we left the place a little nicer for her.
I keep asking myself "why didn't we get that job? It would've worked out perfectly with the timing." But I know God has this all worked out, and I don't really think I wanted that job either. Even if they called me and offered it to me right now, I'm pretty positive I would say no.
So just wanted to share that breaking news with you! This is going to be one BUSY month. I am throwing two showers for my sister, who is going to be getting married right after we move. I definitely will be taking a break from the preschool for the month as I try to wrap my head around this. Please pray we figure out where we go soon, because I need to know if I'm packing for storage or not!
Oh my gosh no way! I had been waitin for pictures because I knew it was going to look so awesome! I am glad you are at peace with everything and I pray you guys find an awesome spot to live. I'll be praying for you!
