Feeling a Little Bit Anxious!!!
Okay people so I never post about myself because I am boring. However, I thought I'd share the anxieties I've been feeling lately. We are now shopping for a house and have been living with my parents for nearly 6 months. Can you believe it has already been that long since our move from California? I hardly remember living there life has been so crazy hectic here. So we were ready to put a contract on a house and the selling Realtor had someone else in contract with this house unannounced to us. Boo hoo, but it was obviously not the house God has planned for us. Since this happened like 2 weeks ago we have looked at 3 houses and will be looking at the fourth tonight. I feel like there hasn't been any one house that has felt perfect for us and am unsure I'll ever get that feeling. It's always budget vs size vs remodeling vs people think there houses are worth more than they really are. I am lucky I'm not bald at this point. I don't want to settle for something that will work for right now, but I don't want to feel strapped each month buying a house to grow into. Interest rates are low right now and the business is doing good so hopefully it all works out. Conan says I may have to go full time at work for a while which I don't want to do. I work 2 12 hour shifts/week by working 4 nights on and 10 days off. At this time it works perfect for me, but in a year I was planning on going per diem and trying for baby #2....that clock is ticking. I really have enjoyed my time with Adrie since we moved home and don't want to have to give that up if Conan's practice doesn't take off. Deep Breath! So needless to say I've been a little stressed and on edge lately and am constantly telling myself that God is in control and that I should "be anxious for nothing". But I am! Well, thanks for reading and I hope all is well with all. I feel much better now.

I totally know what you're talking about! That was us a year and a half ago. After Ry and I moved to Cali we moved in with my parents and all the house hunting stuff was so stressful! It had to be the most stressful thing i had ever done. Even when we did find the house we wanted I was literally sick until the day we signed the papers. But the minute I got to the new house, I had such a wonderful feeling and I knew we made the right decision! Boy did we! Go back and read my archives from Oct 2006-Feb 2007 and read our whole house hunting saga. It got to the point where I didn't even want to blog anymore because I was so consumed by it all. All I can say is good luck, keep praying, and something with open up!
J- I bet that is so stressful. I will be there in three months, sooo not looking forward to it! I will pray for you guys. All will turn out good. And just remember Your Hott!
You silly girl, Glad you are sharing your life with the rest of the world. Try to be patient, something I am working on myself living in the same amount of space as before with two more people and a backyard, I am having to be really patient. There is something just waiting for you to find it.
