i jumped the gun a bit.

the river house did have some water damage due to irene. not inside the house but under the house. it's pretty bad. all the insulation was destroyed along with the air conditioning unit. due to the damage we are moving tomorrow. the house is already beginning to smell a little moldy. we started packing last night and we will finish up tonight. the fact that i am blogging right now is a good sign. we are almost done with the last box, patching up frame holes, and other odds and ends. i have my last oncologist appointment in chesapeake tomorrow morning. then we will get the uhaul and pack the truck and head to harrisonburg. crazy. it all happened so fast but it is time to go. the Lord could not have been more clear. house got damaged...we needed to move out...so harrisonburg here we come. bittersweet. but more sweet.

  3. Of course I never like to hear of homes having water damage, but I do love when God makes himself super clear and even helps make the next move a little more palatable or even necessary. What grace He gives us! Blessings to you on this new journey. May you settle in peacefully and your new house feel like a home quickly!
