An update on the bathroom problem. Yup, still a problem. Still flooded, still smells and still disgusting. It flooded again last night just as we were getting ready for bed, and I woke up to the sounds of a bubbling toilet flooding this morning. You win some, you loose some. But anyways, I am excited today because our good friends are getting married, Kevin will be spending the morning doing his parents yard and I GET TO GO SHOPPING!!!!! Woo hoo!!! So hoo ray for not having to spend the day in our stinky apartment.
Just an update on our apartment situation for Dallas. We have none. HA! We are still looking for places to live. Plan A. Is to try to find something before we get down there. Plan B. is if we don't have a place Kev and I will try to find a bishop who can direct us to some members that we can stay with for a couple days while we find something (that way we won't have to pay for a hotel). The hard thing is we really don't have the time or the money to fly down and look at something so we really are relying on the members to help us out. A couple weeks ago our long distance friends who we have never met went to look at a place for us. The Realtor left them waiting for an hour before they called us. They had already driven from Plano! When my husband called the Realtor she said she didn't even know they were waiting or even coming (but we emailed and called her a few times). Anyways.... the place was a dump, food and rust stuck in the dishwasher, loose floorboards, stained carpet, you name it!!! So glad we didn't rent it. Our lives would have been miserable. BUT on the bright side of things, we have been looking at some pretty nice condo type apartments that are really big and come with a lovely garage. Wish us luck! We will need it. I am planning on doing hair in TX. and really excited too because even though I have to get re-certified (only 300 hrs. compared to 800 in Utah) I feel blessed that I will have something to do during the day. It's crazy when you listen to the spirit everything just falls into place. Really!!! We have been so blessed in numerous ways. Kevin got a scholarship that he can use any way he wants, and we got a good size tax return. When we found out about the job I seriously didn't know how in the heck we were going to be able to do it! We were living pay check to pay check as it was. But now we have a little money to help us get there and get started. Now the trick is to just find somewhere to live!!!! Oh man.
