So, the new year has begun....an uncertain future lies before us. Today I have spent the majority of my day with my phone glued to my ear...not as fun as that might sound! I have racked up quite a bill just in the last few hours, organising references, house cleaning, carpet cleaning, pest control, house inspections and trying to track down some feedback on my Docs assessment. I have so far come up with a big fat nothing, except two very frustrating conversations with some asian chick who had NO idea what I was talking about, various voice messages left and the assurance that as soon as Ray white knows something I'll know something! *rolls eyes* Docs is meant to be calling back, the owner of a house is meant to be calling back, and I have a gruelling 45 mins to wait to find out whether Ray white is going to allow me to LOOK at two places...yes thats right, you have to be preapproved before you can even LOOK through their houses!!! Crazy right?? LJ Hooker wont even GIVE us a reference its been so long since we have rented through them, and if I hadnt called up to find THAT out I'd still be waiting for REFERENCES to come in!!! The only consolation is that there is still one place through our current real estate available that would allow us to keep the pets together, and while its more than we wanted to pay in rent it would at least keep all the family together.
After weeks of waiting and wondering and stressing its all come down to this, and at 2:16 in the afternoon I STILL am none the wiser! It seems crazy doesnt it! in less than two weeks we'll be moving and we have no idea where we're moving too! Talk about faith! I've had to muster more faith and more trust in God in the last few weeks than I've ever had to have in all my life, and STILL we have no answers! All I want is to know WHERE we're moving to! The stress over getting a placement with Docs isnt even on my radar right now, which I suppose I should consider a blessing. I have training for the back to school sale tonight, and Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday I'm working big shifts....should be its own brand of craziness!!!! At least it might take my mind of all this other nonsense! Tomorrow night I have my first tupperware meeting in Toowoomba, im hitching a ride with Anita. Hopefully selling tupperware on the side will allow me to make a little extra cash and cover whatever our rent will end up being.
Well its nearly 2:30pm here, and with half an hour to go before we find out whether we will be homeless soon or not Im tempted to take the place available with my own real estate...but, Im hanging out for a certain place in Thomas Street....close to the church, same rent as what we're paying now, nice clean place perfect for us! For some reason i've held out for it.....I felt from the moment I saw it advertised that it was the place for us, but who knows! God has it all in hand, but I just hope the good Lord works a bit quicker or else we'll run out of time! Meanwhile I think I'll go and read my book or something...try to take my mind off the next 25 mins!
