Yesterday, I wrote a post about how my life feels stuck in a holding pattern. I guess I should have thought twice before publishing those thoughts because yesterday brought an interesting turn of events. (I guess it is kind of like praying for patience. If you pray for it, you better be ready.) Anyway, nothing is set in the stone, but my house has been generating a lot more interest lately. I've had 5 showings in 6 days. Late yesterday afternoon, my realtor called me. She said that she a family interested in making an offer, but they need to take possession in three weeks. She asked if that was even an option. I told her it could be a possibility for the right price.
I am not sure if I could make that happen or not at this point. Three weeks from now, I have to be at our biggest tradeshow of the year for CP, and it is a four-day event. It is always a bit busy getting things ready for it, not to mention the fact that I will be gone for four days. Plus, there is this little issue of not having anywhere to move. I had originally planned to close on a house in KY next week. If I had stuck to my plan, being out in three weeks would not have been such a big deal.
The fact that I am still not sure if I want to stay with CP or if I am going to pursue something else drastically affects my moving process. I have a lead on something I am excited about, but I won't even know if it is a possibility until the end of the month. All that to say, at this point I have no idea where I would go if my house sells in three weeks.
Now I am hoping that the offer won't work out, or God opens some semi-truck doors in the near future.
Crying baby...gotta go.

Hi Joy :) I am sure you have heard this a million times in the last few months, but once again GOD DOES HAVE EVERYTHING UNDER CONTROL. I guess the hard part is not knowing what the "everything" is. We love you very much and once again a reminder that you continue to be in our thoughts and prayers. Give Abigail a hug from us :) Darrell & Georgia
I'm really glad to read your thoughts, Joy. Man, what a crazy time for you. 3 weeks!
I ran across your blog about jealousy. I'm glad you posted your thoughts and feelings on this. It's a good reminder to me how contentment frees me and jealousy clenches me and snuffs out my life.
I think you are very wise in how you recognize this creeping in and confront it. Jealousy has eaten me up before. And I've seen older women who are bitter because of jealousy. It is something I don't want for myself! You either.
I pray for us.
