Long Time, No See

Well, its been a while. I have been so busy trying to keep it all together...and failing miserably. Here's an update.

Shortly after my last post we had gone to court because we were being sued for back rent. Rent we couldn't pay on time but kept paying everything we had. Josh's work had slowed down and every penny went to keeping him working. No groceries, no other bills got paid. When we left court the representative from the Landlord's told us they were more than willing to work with us.

About 3 weeks later Josh got a new job! He started in two weeks! Yea! Then we got a notice that we had to be out of our 'home' in 24 hours. We grabbed everything we could and stored it at Josh's dad's house. We quickly ran out of room. We moved into an extended stay hotel. Because we couldn't grab everything anything that was left was placed out on the curb. We had grabbed Joel's stuff, Addy's clothes and some toys, and we also grabbed necessary furniture (crib, our bed, dressers, etc.) What we couldn't grab was stolen. Including my wedding dress, my kitchen stuff, Joel's DS, and a couple pieces of furniture.

We pressed on knowing that God would take care of us. After 3 weeks in the hotel we couldn't pay that anymore either. We found an apartment (not an ideal place for raising two kids but it would do). Once again, we are starting over.
