Bobbi, I've never noticed your verse until today. It is perfect! God truly watches out for us. Today really boosted our spirits!
 
Julie, so happy things fell into place for you and your family...

God answers prayers! Today we got a call from the rental company. My husband cringed, thinking something else was wrong. Instead, the rental company tells us that they made a mistake and our rent check HAD gone through. I had taken a draw on my check to keep from moving, and had been stressed. Therefore, instead of having to pay rent this month, plus $750 in the animal move-in fees we still owed and late fees, we only had to pay $450!!!! The rest is paying the water and electricity. We are all caught up with everything, and at the end of the month, I out right own my van and will no longer have $400 payments. We will be able to start a savings account.

Thank you for all the prayers!!!

That's awesome, but I would be SERIOUSLY ticked at the rental company for making such a horrible and stressful mistake!!! That is just unacceptable! :mad:
 
What wonderful news! I'm glad this all worked out.
 
Julie, I've been away from CS for awhile, so I didn't see this until today. What a roller coaster read; can't imagine what it was like to live through! Although I would also be very upset with the rental agency for putting you through this, I'm glad it worked out.

How's your nose?
 
Julie,

I am so glad things worked out for you. I have been there a few times, but never with a family. I am sure it is a bit weight off your shoulders.

My nose is good now. Thanks for asking. I have a prescription cream to use if I see the first sign of it again. My son's eye is better now too. He should be released from the doctor to go back to school soon.
