I found a place to live!!!


I got to see my friend Aaron on Saturday (and his adorable girls) and he told me that he and his wife Rachel had been praying for a house and that God would bless them beyond their imagination - of course He did! It was great to see him and hear about God working in his life. As I left I began to pray the same prayer and I felt a bit lame having not prayed that all along. Well - Tuesday night I was feeling just about as low as I could (sorry Mark - he had to endure my wows). Wednesday morning I got a phone call from our landlord's wife - she wanted to know if I had found a place yet and I told her I hadn't. She said they have another duplex rental in north beach that is coming up vacant in a few weeks and she offered it to me. It's cheaper than I was going to pay, it has a garage, washer/dryer and get this - it's half a block from the stairs to the beach. Oh my goodness - God is so good and has blessed me beyond my imagination. I haven't seen the inside - but our landlord promised to make it as nice as our place was when we moved in so I'm not worried. Yea! Thanks for your prayers. Mine is the back half of the duplex.

Stress

It's been a busy week and a half. Last week was crazy at work then Kristy, Gigi, and I threw Tanya a bridal shower on Saturday, then I put on a mothers day brunch at church on Sunday and throw in Mothers Day. Crazy. My body has been paying the price today - my stomach is all messed up. I suppose I'm internalizing the stress in my life and friendships and I should talk to someone about that but who has time. And life goes on.
