Today is definitely not October 19, like it should be; it is October 27. Today seems like it is important, but I cannot for the life of me remember why this date stands out. I hope I am not forgetting someone or something important. Time will tell! LOL.
This has been a busy week thus far. I can't remember all that happened last week, so you get the juicy details of this week. :)
So since October 8 our fridge has been dead... D--E--A--D!!! The repair man came this week and tried to revive it. No such luck. Today we get a call saying the paperwork from the repairman came through and they will go with his suggestion of purchasing a new fridge for us. We have appliance insurance by the way. In another 7-10 days we will have a new one. Did you hear that? In another 7-10 days! Am I complaining? I might be only because it is very difficult living out of a cooler for a month. However, it is what it is!
Hurricane Matthew is still a very real nuisance. I guess you can get that understanding from the info above. We did get the check for the damage for the car (from the recent hurricane). Daniel has an appointment for repairs beginning of next month. The week we move. HAHA! The week previous to that, Nov. 4, we should get a check for the damage to the house. Then we can do what needs to be done there as well. Today a neighbor called to ask if she was seeing things. I asked why and she said she thought she saw a tarp on our house. I laughed and said yes she was correct. Such a sweet lady.
It would be so much easier to leave our home in the woods if our neighbors weren't so awesome. Since this storm our neighbors have come to help or made sure we knew they were there if we needed them. I know troubles make the best come out in most all people. Our little community is amazing and we will miss them.
About the house in Savannah... we got word from the bank all is a go now it is passed on to the next stage, the underwriters. We are going to schedule another appointment with the home inspector to make sure all is a go after the minor repairs were made. I really can't wait to get in the house again.
My sister (in-law) is just as excited as we are. She can't wait to come help me set stuff up. She is amazing. We will be using mom and dad's dining room table (her table) till she needs it. We have not had a family dinner around that table in well over a year. It is time-- and just in time for Thanksgiving.
Another thing today was saying good-bye to one of my favorite people. Pam is relocating to Florida. She has been been blessed by God to be able to purchase a home and a car not to mention she will be able to keep all her dogs. She has 3 that she promised her mother on her deathbed that she would look after Ruth's babies. This is something that has bothered her quite a bit... thinking that she would have to dishonor her mother's dying request. I am very proud of her and know she will be an awesome blessing to others that cross her path in Florida. We will miss her terribly, however, I see trips south in our future. :)
One last thing then I will sign off. I was running a bit late on my own schedule that I set myself. The dog wouldn't eat or go to the bathroom. My son was still very asleep and had a difficult time getting him to hear me as I said I was going to help Pam today. So even though I was 20 minutes ahead of my previous day's planned schedule I was behind mentally for today. I know, I'm strange! AS I traveled and listened to the radio I saw blue lights and red lights on both sides of the road. I began to understand why my planned schedule was lagging behind. If I had been on time I would have been in a serious accident and possibly dead. It's these times that I greatly appreciate God intervening. That sounds like I am glad it was someone else and not me. Not at all, What I mean is if it were me to hit the truck that was hit it might have been worse and someone die. One never knows what is around the bend.
I have enjoyed this blog challenge and know I have been blessed by it. Sounds funny. I believe tomorrow I am going to take a few minutes to write about my devotion from yesterday. We will see.
Until next time. I'd say tomorrow, but I can't promise that. :)
