Living out of Suitcases

Since the government is behind on processing Rural Development loans, we will not be closing on our loan until June 12-14.  So although we have moved out of Tech Village, we are technically homeless. Friday night through today we stayed with Brian's aunt and uncle. Today we moved into Brian's old bedroom at his parents' house. We will be living out of our suitcases until next week. Brian has had to drive over an hour to and from work everyday for the past three-and-a-half weeks, so he will be very happy to finally be moved into our house. I have already begun planning various projects to occupy my time, including making wreaths, stripping and re-staining furniture, and soap making. I'm excited to have room to take up hobbies again! Our realtor keeps telling me that once we are settled in and have lived there for a while, this will have just been a slight speed bump. In the grand scheme of things, she's right. Many people live in even less appealing circumstances than old Tech Village, so I'm very grateful that we have this pretty house to look forward to. This has been a much needed lesson in patience and counting one's blessings. We are healthy and happy, so all is well.

**This weekend is our one year anniversary! Hopefully our cake will still be scrumptious :)
