Life has been amazingly amazing for us! Our goals seem to be headed it the right direction; one bill paid and working on paying our second one off soon.
Just a couple of weeks ago, Mike and I were talking to a friend, who also lives in a trailer. We were talking about life in our “homes” and I couldn’t help but to ask the big question.
“So Jessica, were you lost on what to call your home, or for that matter “embarrassed?””, I wondered. I don’t think those were my exact words but close enough. Give me a break it was 2 weeks ago okay?! Lol.
Her feelings about it were similar to mine. I had no idea what I should call this place (in the beginning). It drove me nuts! Let’s not mention the fact that I wasn’t sure if I wanted anyone to know where we stayed. My answer varied to something like this, “We live down the street from the church”, then found myself quickly changing the subject.
It’s changed. My answer now is we live at the RV Park down from our church. We are saving money and have paid almost 2 of our bills in 2.5 months! My family is much closer and I have the opportunity to acknowledge the good things my kids do VS. the negative.
Oh and what do we call this place; well the answer is….We call this place our home. This friend, is our home. We love it! Matter of fact, we’ve even had friends over. We’ve had 9 people in the house at once. The laughs echoed through here as if it was a mansion.
Funny as it seem I think some people probably already thought they would get an email or call from me saying how frustrated I was living in a confined place with our 3 children and 2 dogs. Well guess what?! I’m happy!
Today I woke up to this HUGE feeling of relief. My kids are awesome and my husband well he’s the bestest!
My advice to anyone who is thinking about it: Stop thinking and just get up and do it! You will be blessed.
We love you all!
