Today I was at care4coffee, which is a group of amazing ladies that meets on post every week and this girl was telling me how shes moving into her new house on post, and I was like man, I want to live on post....and Jena was like I've been telling you FOREVER to go up and talk to them, so I decided that I would go and talk to them, if they offered me a house it was Gods way of saying that is where I need to be, if not I am meant to move in high vista...so we went to talk to them and Angie told me she had a house...I was like holy crap. However, its the housing I swore I would never live in..I always thought it wasn't worth my bah or anything. But then I started crunching numbers and I realized on average I only saved about $40 a month living in my apartment I live in now...and then I was doing laundry which was $24 bucks a month, then facor in gas, I'm like wait a min..I am not making hardly anything by living off post. Now mind you if we moved in high vista, we DEFF would bank...however we would not be able to have ANY partys because the apartment was going to be tiny, and its not like I had a patio to send the guys out on...so I started thinking, and I was like you know what this is the best choice for us. The house on the outside is ugly as hellllll...and they deff aren't the best houses the army has to offer, however Justins rank is low, and we have no kids...its lucky we are able to get a house at all. Plus the pros out way the cons so much, its deff not a house I am in love with, and would want to live forever...but for temporany, its great. Now the bad about this choice, we are stuck in our apartment which means we have to pay a month-to-month which comes out to be 1,009 bucks, which is just another wonderful way our apartments get to rip us off, but we have noo other choice...so I decided to push our date back to getting the house a little longer so that we didn't have to 1) miss our marriage retreat & 2) pay more in prorated rent. and I will still have a few days to get everything taken care of. Im not happy that we are stuck paying that much, however it would be just as much to live in a hotel, then we would have to pay for storage && food to eat out all the time. It sucks, but its okay, everything is going to work out for the best. Im also really excited because we can now get a puppy:) Justin says nooo way, but we will see:)
It really seems like everything is falling into place..and I couldn't be happier! Plus if I get a puppy & start school...which seems like I may be going to Ashford...buttt Idk for sure....I will be so busy that I would be freaking out about not being pregnant...Im starting to realize it will happen in time, and as much as I want it...its OK thats it not happening yet. When God wants me to have my amazing child...he will bless us:) Until then, I need to get started on college & hopefully a puppy! haha.
Wellllllll just wanted to share my great news:)
