| The Purple House....obviously, we would need to paint right away...and then perhaps Tim will brick it with old cream city brick....than would look very nice. |
Good Morning! Today we are looking at the Purple House. This is our last chance to own a house. The house we are renting is sold and we have to move out by the 22nd! We had an offer on a house..which just wasnt meant to be I guess. If we do not like this house or for some reason this house does not work out then we will have to rent month to month...somewhere furnished and put all of our packed boxes in storage until our money is liquid and we can actually buy without trying for creative financing. I have been praying and praying that the timing for our finances could work out for us...but now we are totally running out of time. I cannot tell you enough how stressful and sad and exhausting it has been ...this search for a home....this hoping that the money comes....I pray pray pray...and wonder what God's plan could possibly be for me. He asks us to pray without ceasing...ask you and you shall receive....I know his plan is always better than any I could ever come up with...but I am very confused as to what good can come from us being so stressed at the last moment...to be packing with no where to go...to have the possibility really to be homeless for a time .....I am SO TOO old for this! I cannot see the benefit in any way, shape, or form...and I try to be patient...I try to say to God...your will be done...etc etc..etc... but I just dont understand his will.....and I am feeling forgotten and uncared for by him actually.
So, I found this house yesterday...its our last ditch effort to find a home that we could live with...(live IN) and that we actually like and that we could move into by the 22nd!!! This is a foreclosure....so very very very cheap. (Maybe God will like that part~lol) Maybe he thought all the other houses were too expensive for us....maybe he knows something I do not and it would be better to have a cheap house....he DOES know after all that Tim can fix and make anything in the house better himself as he is a builder....So, this house is bank owned...and affordable and empty. It is in a town very close...much closer than we were looking previously. (Nicer to be closer to my parents and for my youngest child who has 1 more year of high school before going off to college). Obviously it needs some work...but from the pictures anyway..there seems to be potential. I am praying some more and keeping my fingers crossed and sending positive thoughts bouncing off everywhere...positive energy ......positive energy.....I like some of the nice details in the house...the size is right...2500 sq ft....the yard is nice...1 acre with a stream....We see this house in 2 1/2 hours.....and if it does not work out...we desperately will need to find a rental...and storage units for our house full of stuff....this is not going to be fun. I try to keep going forward...but we are out of options. Still if for some reason, this be my last day to live...I dont want to live it so sad and worried....I will try to be happy.....carpe diem regardless!
