Most of you are probably wondering what this rambling is all about. Here's the stitch......
Robert and I are getting married in October, and while I absolutely LOVE his house, it's not quite big enough for us and all of our JUNK! So for the past few months we have been looking around at outdoor buildings, just big enough for our stuff that we don't have room for inside our house, but doesn't need to be left out in the weather. For example, Robert has a ton of fishing 'junk', Brody's outdoor toys, and so on. Well, the only outdoor buildings that have really been in our price range have been the cheap little flimsy metal ones......you know, the ones that blow over or fall apart in the first year or two? So we continued to put off buying one. Hidden signals must have been sent, because usually we can be spontaneous buyers. Anyways.....the other night, with a broken A/C unit and fishing equiptment scattered across every inch of the living room, we we're whining about needing a building. Robert's phone goes off for a text, and I read it. It says, "Do you need an 8x10 wood building?'' I ran the phone to Robert, and he didn't recognize the number. I'm basically jumping up and down telling him to call it anyways, so he sends a text back asking who it was.
His friend, whom I won't name, then called him! He is having some issues and wanted to sell his wooden shed. DIRT CHEAP!! So, we jump in the Jeep and drive over. The building is GREAT! It is huge, well-made, and way more than we even wanted. And the price that he gave us was so cheap, I almost felt guilty about it. Needless to say, we wrote the check while we were there and it' supposed to be in our backyard on Thursday :)
I still can't absorb how perfectly that worked out for us. Wow! I think we are both learning every single day lately to let go and let God!
