So, a few weeks ago we found out that the cute adorable little house we were hoping to rent that was in walking distance to the school I work at, was rented out. In my mind, I had all of the things placed on our counter top already, curtains hanging in the large living room window, and our cute little family living there. So, this was really a let down.
After all of this, I found my car needed a major repair. So that was just another bump in the road.
On Thursday, Luke's grandma was admitted to the hospital and she has been there since. She's not doing really well, and it's really rough to see her in the state that she's in. That same day, I got a call about a 2 bedroom house with a 2 car garage in Industry, which is about 9 miles south of Macomb. I talked to the land lord and he seemed like a great guy! He was going to send us picture today of the house. After going to Nona her yesterday, we sat in the car and cried. We just want her to be herself again so badly. So, today I was determined to make a better day. I got up and went straight to work out, since I have been HORRIBLE about this ever since I left Macomb, came home and made myself a nice lunch, did some shopping, and then got some pictures of the house! It's ADORABLE! We made plans to go see it Sunday!
So, after we got the pictures, we were pretty thrilled and just in a good mood, so we went to see Nona :) I don't know if it was just the good news we finally got after this crazy week, but Nona seemed to be just a little more of herself than yesterday. She was able to have a little more conversation, remembered a lot more, and made us laugh :) I am hoping that all of my prayers are being answered a little at a time.
But God, I'll take Nona over the 2 bedroom house any day ;)
