We have had so many blessings! some sweet people in our ward heard that we were moving and needing furniture, and so he cleaned out his garage a little and we were able to get a little night stand and small cabinet/stand from him! every little thing helps. a while back, someone gave us his old couches (which still have to be cleaned) but so we have a bed for us, two couches, a dresser for Craig and a kitchen table! Plus a small nightstand and a little drawer or tv stand. i love when people are so willing to share things they are getting rid of anyway.
we are closing on our house on Tuesday night... most likely. we ended up not going with the HUGS prgram, because of difficulties and it would also raise out interest rate from 5.5% to 6.6%!!! that's a good $150 at least a month! so we have saved as many pennies as possible and we renegotiated and got the price for the house down a little also.
We went and bought a stove, dishwasher, and fridge last night. we have been watching craig's list and saw ones for cheapo! they are not the best, but for $350 for all, we couldn't beat that.
I am feeling a little overwhelmed! we still need to find a washer and dryer, looking on craigslist and then get all the little fixing ups to the house and hopefully be able to paint before we get to live in a house of our own!! plus fixing the yard some and tearing out some trees and bushes.
