Just a little update

Okay, we have an answer. Long story short, the seller did not accept our final offer. And you know what? I'm fine with that. I feel really good about the decision. It is a great house, and someone will be very happy there. It just won't be us.

We will rent for the next 6 months to a year. And honestly, I am excited. I feel like a huge burden has been lifted. I have an answer to the "where are we going to live" question. Well, kind of... I have 2 options for rental properties, and hopefully, we will have a decision on that tomorrow.

I was excited about having a new place to decorate and make our own. But I will admit, I am kind of excited about not having to do that right now. I NEVER in a million years thought I would feel this way if our dilemma turned out the way it has. Now, I feel like there is no rush to unpack EVERY. SINGLE. BOX. Woohoo!!!! I can make our little rental comfy and livable, but I don't have to rush to get things done before Jason goes to work. We can enjoy the time we have to just hang out.

Saving for another 6 months to a year also gives us time to pick out a home that is even more perfect for us. That makes me excited. Not to mention this whole process will be much easier since we will be there. I am less stressed now than when I thought we actually had a house to call our own. Crazy, I know, but it's true. I am trusting that all things work out the way they were meant to, and that someone is looking out for us.

Oh, yeah, and the theme for the week in the photo challenge is "Enchantment". Here is this week's submission.
