If you could see me now....

First let me say how thankful I am that God has provided such a wonderful place for us to stay. We literally have everything in storage with the exception of needed clothes and toiletries. The apartment we are in is fully furnished, has bed linens, towels, washer & dryer, etc.... I went from freaking out to fabulous in a matter of hours.

For whatever reason, my cell phone will not pick up any service in the apartment - not even notice of someone attempting to call me. Somewhere there is Wi-Fi but it and my phone only pick up outside.

I have pulled two dining chairs onto the patio and I'm sitting here on the computer. Everyone who drives by can see my "glow" from the computer. Mosquitoes are eating me alive and I just screamed from a family of raccoons that just ran about a foot away from me. (A little concerned - nobody checked to see what was going on when I screamed). The baby of the family seems to have gotten separated from the rest and keeps running over to me. I'm not big on wild animals - even when they're as cute as this little one - so I keep trying to scare it away.

The contract on house #3 from my previous post in now fully executed. WOW! Now we have the inspections done on Monday. We are waiting until after the inspection reports are completed and positive to terminate the contract with Royce. (Third time's the charm - Right!?)

I have spent the entire evening on the patio on Dustin's laptop researching French decor (the battery is almost gone so I'm going to have to wrap this up soon). House #3 is a French traditional style. If all goes through I would like to carry this over into the interior as well - Dustin's tired of the western theme and I do think it would look really out of place there.

I'm anxiously awaiting Monday - please keep us in your prayers.

Love,
Lea - living th great adventure
