Home is where the heart is

So Carrie and I have been looking at houses for the last decade (it feels like), and we have found one or two that we really liked, but they were both short sales, and they both ended up foreclosing. Hmph. Well, one of those houses is back as a foreclosure, so we're gonna go for it again. This has been a really rough time for us because we constantly have to check ourselves to make sure we are not being greedy and that we are content with God has for us. We have to trust in God to meet our NEEDS, and so we have to wait on Him for His timing, and the right house (even if it's the one we are currently in). There has been lots of second guessing, I'm not going to lie, but we have been praying and seeking His will, and we are asking Him to provide. We're going to go see the house on Saturday, so I would appreciate any prayers for our hearts to be sensitive to His will, not ours. Praise be to God!

These times they are a changin

I already talked about how my computer hates me (we're feeling reconciled as of late, though it still need a DVD drive), and I'd like to pass that hatred on to Daylight Savings Time. Seriously, I already have a hard enough time waking up in the morning, I don't need to be getting pushed up an hour on top of that! Last week was the suck, and really set me back as far as getting back on my morning schedule. And let me tell you, especially those of you with your finger up at me about to set me straight, the "extra" hour in fall is TOTALLY NOT WORTH IT!! It's just an excuse to stay up later and lounge around in bed longer. Bleh.

Speaking of morning schedule, my wife is starting work out with me!!! YIPPEE!!! I love it when we find something we can do together, and I love it even more when she's glaring at me for how sore she is (bwahahahaha!). Also, my mom got me some adjustable dumbbells for my (very very early) birthday, and I love that I can actually have some real weight to move around. Thanks Mom!!!

Man I hate computers

Ok not really, but my computer hates me. My home PC has been down for the last week, while I replaced all kinds of parts and waited a week for a fan to get here. Needless to say, last week really sucked, being sans PC. And right now, it looks like this thing isn't done with me yet, because now my DVD drive isn't working! ARRRGGGHHHH!!!

In other news, I taught again in Precept, this time for a different class. It went well yet again (thank you Lord!), and I'm starting to think that this might be something I'm really supposed to be doing. I'm going to continue to pray about it and let God lead me through this, but it's so exciting to see people impacted by the Word, and it's so fun being used by Him when you are really just along for the ride.

I was gonna post something else while my computer was broke, but now I can't remember. I blame the time change. More on that later.
