the place was a dump...UGH!!! Basically, to get an affordable place around here, you're going to live in the "ghetto" areas of our suburbia/small town/ruralness---not because of ethnicity, but just the trashy areas, where people don't care what their yards look like, or what their homes look like. UGH!!!
If I could just win $150,000 in the lottery (yeah, right!!!), I'd buy our little dreamplace we found! We were driving around the other day and found a 1 1/4 acre lot with a 3 bedroom mobile home on it. It has some really nice (and big) pine trees on the lot, which is part of the reason I like it. The MH is far enough back on the property that we could still live there and build a home on the front part "someday". There's a little chicken coop in the back corner, and a nice storage shed too. There's plenty of room for a good-sized house and a pool toward the front, and plenty of room to spare. For the price of land in the area, it's not a bad deal at all. Plenty of room for the kids and the dog, and room to expand in the future. (Anyone got an extra wad of cash lying around out there?!? hehe)
So, we're still at square one when it comes to finding a place to live. That's been the only hitch with our re-relocation! Everything else fell right into place...so maybe that winning lotto ticket will just fall into my hand as I'm walking through the parking lot later today....ya think?!? I'm not really stressing over it, and know God's in control, I just hate seeing my family in limbo "still"...as we've kind of been for awhile. It just seems the terms of "Limbo" change every so often, but that's just "life" too, right?
Hopefully I'll have some news to post about an "abode" soon. Then I can start talking about something else!!! LOL
