A few of you already know this, but I wanted to share it with all of you.
My husband has been very ill for some time now, in fact he almost died last November. Since then things have been really tough for us. Because of his health he has had to resign as the pastor of our church. That means we will be moving by April 1st.
Here's the thing though, we have no idea where or how we will pay for it!! We want to stay in this area since is has been our home for such a long time now, but my husband is limited in how much he can work. Finding a place that is big enough and we can afford is going to be tough. Oh and we only have a month and a half to do it. Ugh!!
I'll admit there have been a few days here and there that i am a mess about the whole thing, but for the most part I am at peace that it is the right thing to do and that God will direct us to our new home and employment for my husband that he can handle, and maybe even some for me. I have no doubt we will be taken care of.
Anyway, in the mean time I am sorting and tossing and organizing and on and on, all the junk and stuff we have accumulated over almost 29 years of marriage. I am shocked at how much we really have and soooooo glad to see much of it going out the door or being set aside for a moving sale just before we do move. We even have our adult sons household of stuff to deal with since he moved back in with us after he lost his job 4 years ago. So it is a LOT of stuff. LOL!!
I will pop in as I can, but it is all I can do right now to keep my blog afloat (it is giving us a little bit of income now and I don't want to loose it!!) and to keep things going in our home. Oh yeah and pack too! :)
