I have a really cute house picked out but nothing is certain yet. This is why I'm petitioning everyone to keep his/her fingers crossed. First I am waiting to see if the owner accepts my offer of $60 per month. She lives in Costa Rica and her sister is in charge of her house while she's away. The sister has to get a hold of the owner, which is semi-difficult because she doesn't own a phone. SO, first you're keeping your fingers crossed for that.
Then one of my bosses is coming on Monday to make sure the house passes the safety requirements. I'm not nervous because I know it will...but I'm still nervous. Does that make sense?
Why do I want to move out of my current house? While it's been wonderful and helpful and easy, I'm ready to live on my own. I want to have more domain than a room. I want to wash clothes whenever it's sunny and not have to wait for the family's washer-woman to be done. I want to cook food whenever I want and not feel like I'm in the way if someone else is cooking. I want to be able to sit in peace anywhere in my house. I want to look forward to coming home in the evening because I know it will be relaxing. I want my friends to feel welcome at my house and not have to sit out on the patio talking to them. So, while it has been a good year with the family, and I will still visit them, I'm just ready for more of my own space.
So please pray that all this works out for me and I get to move in to my new house next week. Thank you!
