Changing Times

It sure has been a month....First of all, the job my husband had changed and we fell into a fast-moving pace of taking things one day at a time.  Our house was put on the market on Friday and by Monday there were two potential sets of buyers for it with appointments on the that Thursday.  After each inspection with the buyers, there was an offer and a final proposal made and accepted by that Friday!  That was fast!  A closing date of 30 days and then 14 more days are given to move out.

Our vacation plans, which had already been set in January, were turned into a whole new adventure of finding a new place to move into and things to get set up for the new time.  All things done, we have been receiving one blessing after another and all things are falling into place.

Our time in this community has been long, but short.  Even those who we thought we might be able to trust have truly broken that!  I am very disappointed in that, but am unable to do anything about it at this point, except be thankful that we asked and received the exact amount more out of our house to cover the unexpected cost!!

I am very much excited and nervous all at the same time.  The kids are grown and one will remain here with her husband, the younger will be moving out of state to pursue her own dreams and the youngest will be coming with us as we find our new normal things.

I so thankful that God is placing all things in His timing and we are being blessed with all of this activity.  There are some people that will be truly missed and I do consider them as new friends, and some that I am happy to say 'good-bye' to and never look back at the attitudes that have broken my heart to pieces!

It is bitter-sweet to see what 10 plus years has been like in this unusual small community.
