Life is good

Ok, so it's been a while since I've posted, and a lot has happened lately. First, I'm engaged to be married to Jessica, and we're getting hitched next Thursday. I'm pretty darn excited.

I've got a long list of things that need to be done, and I've been stressing about several of the things (like finding a house, making the honeymoon plans, etc). Well, the biggest item got taken off the list yesterday. That's right, we finally found a place to live!! No more awkward moments when people ask about it (20 different people per night...), no more pondering about if my car is big enough to survive in for a semester (just kidding, Jess), and far less stress!

I learned an important lesson over the past couple of weeks that hesitation when looking for housing leads to getting shut down quickly. Granted, I think that losing some of the previous housing opportunities taught me that lesson so that I'd be ready to act when yesterday arrived. We found a place and were calling all day about it, but weren't able to set up a time for an appointment. So we showed up to take a look, liked what we saw, and as we left, another couple came down to take a look. So we decided that we'd take it, and everything has just worked out perfectly. I believe the Lord has his hand in this and has helped us find an awesome place. We've been hugely blessed!

So life is really good. There's still a lot to do, but I feel like things are a lot more handleable. Hooray!
