My Nomadic Life

Last weekend I moved out of my fantastic apartment of one year.  And now I'm sitting on my friends' couch to type this blog.

Why? Because I'm getting to move in with two of my great friends, Megan and Jenna, into an amazing house, to really live life together. Yay community! 

(That's them right over there ------>)

But here's the kicker. One of my roommates and I had to move out of our apartments on the 11th... and we can't move into our house until June 1st. Ugh.

What's a homeless girl, or two, supposed to do? Insert amazing friends here.

We have been so blessed to  have friends that are helping us in every way imaginable! Our friend Billy offered the use of his basement for us to store practically ALL our belongings until June 1. And let me just tell you, that basement has never been that full before. It looks like one of those pack rat shows on TLC. Or True Life: I'm an obsessive hoarder. 

Our friends Jimmy and Clare let us house sit for them the last week, and our friends Cam and Sarah are letting us house sit the next two weeks. It is amazing how God has provided us places to stay that not only allow us to not burden others, but do little house sitting things to bless them as well!

The last week of our nomadic-ness I'll actually be in Orlando for GCM staff training while Jenna finishes up the house sitting. I'll get back to Morgantown about midnight on the 31st, and then move the next day! 

It is crazy, but surprisingly unstressful. I am constantly amazed at how God is using this experience to help me grow. In trust, patience, humility, um... lack of stuff..., and just general contentment with anywhere I am (figuratively and literally).
