Operation: Find Church Home! (and moving update)

Steph and I went to Otter Creek A/G this past Sunday. It was great! I think maybe we've found our church home?? We were both impressed with the praise/worship and the preaching. The pastor seems very down to earth. The message seemed like it was just for me. The choir sang this one song that was sooo amazing. I have no idea what the name is or who sings it, but one of the lines said, "I am your future, so leave your past behind." Hello! It is so true! I need to let go of my past.

I'm so excited! I mean, if this is really going to be our church home then it's only a matter of time before I can get involved with the Missionettes again. Yay! On the other hand... I'm scared of getting involved with the Mettes and having to leave them again. SIGH.

Anyhoo...I have an update on the moving situation. My mom called me Sunday morning and said that she might need me to move into their house. About 6 months ago, they moved out of their big house and into a smaller house. They have been trying to sell the big house, but...no luck so far. Mom and dad do not want to keep paying two mortgages, so mom said that if their big house doesn't sell by Oct then they'll have to move back into it. They don't want to sell the little house, so mom said she would "count on" me to move in and take over the payments. NO PRESSURE! I'm so stressed. I had finally decided that I was going to move in with Steph in Nov and now my mom throws a wrench in the plans! It's sad really... My mom and dad love the small house so much. They've worked so hard to restored it. They really do NOT want to move back to the big house. So, I'm praying that the big house will sell! Then mom and dad will be happy and I'll get to move in with Steph. Heh. I guess I should really be praying for God's will to be done, huh? But, he does say that he'll give us the desires of our heart! =) And my mom's desire is to live in that small house.

So, about the small house...It's so cute! Mom and dad have worked so hard on it. It's a two bedroom, one bath, 1920's house. I love it and really wouldn't mind living there at all. I'd have to share it with Logan though. I'm not sure how Ifeel about that...especially about sharing one bathroom with him! There's a nice size fenced in back yard, so Sam would be fine. I think he'd be lonely though. He's used to running with a whole pack of dogs. So, if I move into the small house, I might have to get another dog. I'm not sure I'm ready for that.

I told Steph about the wrench that's been thrown into our plans... She's sad! She has her heart set on me moving in too! I just don't understand why these problems keep cropping up for me! I don't do very well with decisions. =( Is this God's way of telling me that moving in with Steph isn't a great idea? I don't want to think that!

So, if my mom's big house sells, I'm moving in with Steph. If it doesn't, I'll be moving in the small house with Logan. I just can't let my mom down. *another big sigh*

Pray for me! And my parents... And Steph...

Oh yeah! I STILL haven't heard anything from Lowe's! I called them twice last week, but...NOTHING. All b/c they don't have an HR person right now. I really, really need a 2nd job!! So, pray about that too.

I'm just full of prayer request today...
