Movin' on up

by Granny Girl

It's been a long time since I have been this busy! In the month of February I worked a full time job with a long commute and packed for a move. On the last day of February I left work early, went to my oldest son's wedding at the courthouse (more about that in a later post), sent them off on their honeymoon, and moved out of the house I had lived in for 10 years. My brand new 4 year old grandson and I loaded my little Toyota Yaris with boxes and drove around the corner to the new house and unloaded about 12 times. My big, strong 13 year old grandson wasn't there to help because he was at a football tournament. My 22 year old, who was moving from one house to another with me, was working. But my dear niece and her big, strong husband came to the rescue with a pickup and a dolly. They came on Saturday morning and moved all my big stuff! And then on Sunday, my 22 year old son's church friends swooped in with 3 vans and moved all of his stuff. When my oldest son and his new wifey came home on Sunday afternoon, all my stuff was out of the house. They can start their married life without a mother-in-law living with them! They are renting the house from me, and will eventually buy it.

God provided the temporary job for me so I could afford to rent my new house. And He provided the house just in time for me to move when my son got married. I've been in it for 10 days and I'm completely unpacked and settled in. I still have to find curtains for most of the rooms, and get a washer and dryer, but this has been the smoothest move I've ever made. Now my temporary job has ended and I'm excited to see how God is going to continue His provision. I'm so thankful that He is my provider, money isn't.
