When life gives you lemons...

Usually, my comment on life giving you lemons would go something like "When life gives you lemons, be sure you slice them open before throwing them back." Or "Be sure not to get the juice in your eye" or even " return the favor by rubbing them into someone's wound." The last while has presented some interesting situations that have started, slowly, to work out in our favor.

About a month ago, our landlord told us that his daughter needed a place to live and our apartment would be the cheapest for her. So, we had two weeks to find another place to live and move. We were shocked, suprised, and down right angry about the whole thing. After some tears and a few prayers, we started to look. Four days later, we had a place to live. We found a cute place in Murray that is only 5-10 minutes away from work and has a washer and dryer. We moved in over ther 4th of July weekend and are so thankful that we have air conditioning. We are also grateful to our parents for helping us get into the place. It's nice to be semi-settled.

The best news of all is that Mike finally got a regular job! He is working at SLCC South City Campus at the information desk in the Student Center. This is great because he'll be right there for classes. It's nice to know the right people sometimes.

So things are starting to come together...slowly. Thanks for the love and support!
