• In 11 days !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  

  ME AND JEN ARE MOVING INTO OUR APARTMENT!!!!!!

  I'm sorry I didn't post Part Two yet (it's still coming...I promise). As you can see, a lot of things are happening, and very quickly. Jen was spending the night at our friend Lucy's place, and found her down stairs neighbors moving out. The landlord is a friend of ours, and said the next place that opened up would be ours.So she called her to see if they were in fact moving out. Our friend didn't know anything about, so she sent an employee to check it out. She found out the people were going to try to skip out without telling them (they owed a lot of money), but they were moving. By that morning, March 28th, it was confirmed...the apartment was ours!

  We set up an appointment that Tuesday to go check the place out. When we got there, we found the previous tenants had TRASHED the place. It was bad. She told us it was probably going to be another month and half until it was done because they were going to have to re-do everything. I mean these people took the good stove, and replaced it with an old not working one. The kitchen was still stocked with their old food. The carpets, once light tan, were now black. They lived there 10 years, and it looked like they never cleaned once.

  We were bummed that was going to take that long, but we would wait. Our landlord is on staff at our church. She rents apartments out to other staff for really cheap. So we are getting a GREAT price for the neighborhood we are in (it's in a pretty upscale area).

  WELL!!!! I ran into our landlord's friend who is in charge of re-doing the place. He says that has been working the contractors to the bone, and our place will be ready by April 15th. Our landlord is going to let us move in then, and give us those two weeks until May 1st for FREE.

  The cool thing is...is I'm accomplishing my goal of being out of the house by at 22. I set that goal about 4 years ago, and will be turning 23 a month and a half after we move! How awesome is that?!?!?!

  God continues to provide the things we are needing to move it. I'm in continuous shock everyday, and more and more things are being provided! Even as I have been unfaithful to Him, He is still so faithful. He blows me away!!!

  So things are going to be crazy the next few weeks. I will take pictures soon and post them of our place!!!!!
