odds and ends

Well we are all with my parents! Jonathan and I have crammed all of our belongings with the exception of our mattress, pillows, and tv and several changes of clothes into 2 different storage units! We are living in a room that is smaller than our old bedroom, with a box fan, a mattress on the floor and our stuff is wedged in among all of my mom's antiques! It's not exaclty the ritz carlton by any means but we have a roof over our heads! Tomorrow we will be moving into a FEMA travel trailer my parents bought for vacations! We looked at a house last night, 4 bd 3 baths farm house with a fishing pond on 2 1/2 acres about 5 minutes from my parents! I think this may be the one - I pray this is the one we spoke with the owners who live in FL last night and they said we could move in in about a week or so... Hopefully our patience and marriage will last that long-lol! I keep telling myself I should count my blessings and not the negatives - the other day my grandma had to remind me once again - that someone out there has it worse!! I am trying very hard to not get the feelin sorry for myselfs but it grows increasing more difficult! I guess it is all in His plan and I have to BELIEVE that and What doesn't kill you makes you stronger right?- I think I'll be Wonderwoman and Jonathan Superman after this!!
But after all the kids think it is too fun to stay with Nana and Papa despite what mommy and daddy think and my mom is really going to miss us - I'm pretty sure she loves having us here.

At the verge of gving up..

Well - I know that Blogs are typically for sharing good news but right now I have none to share! I am beginning to feel so hopeless, I don't know what to do, I have lost all hope and faith in people! As of next Tuesday, we will literally be homeless... We have the money for a house, but can't find anyone to rent us one! I guess I have noone to blame but mostly myself, but school is getting ready to start and I can't even register the kids! They have no idea what their address is or anything! I know everyone says to trust in the Lord and believe that he will help, do not worry and have faith! But I have really already lost faith in almost all of our family and friends, I am so disappointed in EVERYTHING right now! I have given up - Lord you have to show me what to do!!!!
