I was going to do something fun for our 100th post, but life has been to crazy. So you will have to be happy with an update (sorry).
Friday we ran to Ann Arbor to find housing, everything we looked at was a dump. One of the grad students showed us her apartment complex and at 6pm we finally signed a contract. I was so happy that we had finally had a place to live, granted it was smaller then I had imagined we would live in. A home none the less is still a home, (I was starting to wonder if we were really going to have to live in a cardboard box).
Brett was amazing; I was the one who got cranky half way through our adventure. What I ever did to have such a great kid, I don't know. I just hope that whatever it was, I did good enough to earn the right to only have great kids.
We ran to Toledo Ohio, to see that Felts. We had so much fun, I am so glad that we will only be 45 minutes away (still too far if you ask me, but we are still closer). I am so excited, we love them so much. We had some pizza and chatted until 9:45pm, with a 2 hour drive ahead we figured we had better leave.
We made good time, and arrived at our toll road exit at 11pm. We didn't get through the toll until 12:30am. The Indiana governor just sold the toll road to an Australian company, and they decided to get rid of all toll workers. So it was a self service thing, and the machine wasn't working. It took 5-10 minutes a car and in some cases 15 minutes, I was so mad when we got up there to stick our ticket in the machine, it spit it back out at in 8 times before it took it(some people drove through without even paying). Yeah I am calling the company tomorrow, that was ridiculous.
Church was good today, we said good bye to all of the wonderful people there. When we got home, we had a phone call from the apartment complex that we signed with. Apparently, Jon doesn't make enough money (they don't want rent to exceed 40% of your income) and I don't work, we don't make enough money to live there. So we are in a mad dash to find more money (anyone have $400 a month lying around??), or look for a new place. Tuesday we will be running to Ann Arbor again to find housing.
Some how it will work out, the Lord loves us, that we know. Thanks for the prayers!!
