Happy Birthday to ...

Sister Smith!!!! I hope you had a wonderful day.

Anthony took me out house hunting ... just in case we are moving ... again. *sigh* We've narrowed it down to two different apartment complexes. Both are nice, but one's just a bit nicer with a tiny bit higher price tag. We'll probably go with the more moderately priced one. Here's what we have to decide between:

little less: the goods: little bit better layout, brand new (awesome), tile floors in bath and kitchen
the bads: tad bit smaller, regular bathtubs, tiny dining room (need to get a new dining table), electric stove (not crazy about electric stoves), possible we may not get private entrance

little more: the goods: tad bit bigger, garden tubs (mmmmm.....), gas stove (I loooove cooking on gas), AWESOME walk-in closets (HUGE), nicer bathrooms, patio off the master bedroom (nice)
the bads: vinyl in kitchen/bathrooms (I HATE vinyl floors), a little more expensive, have to buy washer/dryer (doesn't come in apartment--We'll eventually have to do this anyway when we decide to buy a house, but we're not sure we're ready to do it just yet.)

So, we're trying to decide.

Anyway, it was a good day, but not exactly my "ideal" birthday trip. Oh, well. I'm getting my car detailed this weekend for my birthday present. That makes me VERY happy, so I'm good. :-D

Still pretty busy, so it'll probably be this summer before I get back to Blogland as a regular. We'll probably be moving, which means we'll be busy, but that'll be good fodder for some great pictures to post, so that'll be good, I guess.

There are some prospects in the Chicago area who have been in contact with The Church. A Hispanic family and an Assembly of God pastor with a possible 40 members who may follow if he decides to follow God. Wouldn't that be awesome? They'd be following their pastor as He follows God. How Biblical and theocratic and perfect. Pray, everybody, for these precious souls.

If we do move, it'll be close to Chicago. Hmmmm.... methinks God is up to something. :-)

Love ya'll.
