The Battleship

So here's the BIG news! We are moving!

Yawn.... you say.... I knew that infinity ago.
Well, some people don't hang around Richy, the beans-spiller. So they didn't know. So there.

Of course, there's always a lot involved in a decision like this... we have such a dream place out here in Radiantville, and Juan and Sandy have been such a HUGE blessing.... man, the rewards in heaven for those two. We always tell them, "If we had a million dollars..."
But we have been feeling like God was moving us out, and praying, and one of us has been fasting. :)
So off we went to look for a place. And found this one. We had been looking around all day, and just were getting pretty discouraged with how expensive everything is, for so little square footage.
As soon as we walked in this house, we felt the presence of God. R2 walked in and looked around and said, "This is amazing!" LOL
So we have been praying and working our butts off to get approved. And we did. We sign a year lease Friday and move in September 1st! WOOOHOOOO

It is 1900 square feet, 3 bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths... 2 living areas and a large dining area... walk in pantry and 1 car garage. Located on 242 east, minutes from everything and especially Montgomery College.
You better believe I'm happy. I'm getting giddy.

Happy Birthday, Roo!

Josh said...

Thank you, jerk.

Josh said...

Just kidding.

Thank you, thank you!

I also share my B-Day with Metallica lead man, James Hetfield. . . what an honor.

Fact of the day:
In Australia, the Number 1 topping for pizza is eggs. In Chile, the favorite topping is mussels and clams. In the United States, it's pepperoni.

Quote of the day:
"It is better to be defeated on principle than to win on lies."
- Arthur Calwell

Word of the day:
inebriety
Pronunciation: /in-uh-BRY-uh-tee/
n : the state or condition of being drunk

Josh said...

That word of the day is only a coincidence!

Josh said...

No, you can’t move to the city! I assigned Joe Lieberman to form a task force to keep you Clarks in the country. . . away from people. How did this happen right under his nose? Joe will be in a lot of trouble!

Josh said...

Ah yes, inebriety in the spiritual since. . . gotta love it.

Some other interesting things that share my B-Day:

1492 - Navigator Christopher Columbus set sail before sunrise from Palos de la Frontera, Spain, at the head of three ships (Nina, Pinta, and Santa Maria) and a crew of about 90 men.

1861 - The pay of Army nurses was raised from $8 per month, plus one ration per day, to $12 per month; it had been $8 per month since 1777.

1933 - The now famous Mickey Mouse Watch debuted; selling for $2.75. A Mickey Mouse Clock sold for $1.50. Today, a new model sells for around $25 or more, while the original watches and clocks are priced in the hundreds of dollars.

1958 - The submarine USS Nautilus began the first crossing of the Arctic Ocean under ice cap.

Arb, actually richy and I were thinking we just acquired 2 daughters... pretty convenient

Nate said...

I need to cut down on something...I've got three things I"m doing right now...work, school, and ministry...right now my schooling is at zero...so I've got to cut out somethign somewhere..my life is exactly too stressfull. Work isn't bad, except that it takes my entire day, and I have other htings that I need to accomplish. Mondays...my only days...

I dont' know what the future holds...

I have alot of things...lots and lots and lots...no "TronTime"

Mama PC said...

it's hard to work and do college, but if you want it bad enough...and need that degree.... then you can do it... sometimes ministry needs to be carefully considered and whittled down to a manageable thing... while you are strengthening in other areas..

yeah katie

ok - gotta go

oyster is calling - (you're not gonna believe this thing!)

and company is coming in at midnight!

hey, i need some volunteers for something

BethC said...

mamapc, is that Sunday evening at 5pm for CtK pizza/cookies/waters?

jess said...

Kat- I emailed you

jess said...

That's why we needed so much space. One of the bedrooms, the upstairs living room, and the garage will become the offices and the studio.

Then, if we get more kids, we'll kick the studio out!

jess said...

Richy is so excited about being "in town". He's already planning to have the house full of people all the time.

I've missed that

jess said...

yep
