Wherever we live next is where we'd like to stay until we can afford a house, so we're being slightly more rigid in our requirements, because "good enough" might become intolerable after a few years.
We have an appointment to go look at a place at 10 am, I drove by it yesterday and not gonna lie, it looks a little iffy but it also has several porches and sunrooms attached and looks like it would be big enough for our needs. It has a very large backyard but it's not fenced. We'll see, I guess.
If ya'll reading this know of any places that fit the bill above, please let me know! and if you wouldn't mind keeping us in your prayers as we search (for a house and a job for me) we would really appreciate it!
Have you found anything? We're still hunting here, too. :-) My list is getting shorter and shorter as time goes by. But on the upside, before we moved here, I was VERY less than thrilled about this house/location, but over the years, I felt that the Lord kept pointing out things he had put into this house that were like little gifts from him to me. So I grew to love it. :-)
ReplyDeleteno, we haven't found anything and now we've had to stop looking because we barely have money for groceries & bills, much less rent. sigh.
