Ben and I love watching HGTV's tiny homes. Correction, I love watching tiny homes, and Ben tolerates it. Living in a hotel the past 15 nights has made us come to the conclusion that we would never want to live in a tiny home. Living out of a mini fridge and microwave is not our idea of enjoyable living. Though it may be for some people, God has not blessed us with enough patience. We're on a tight budget, a strict diet, and all we do is come back to the hotel and watch HGTV or Food Network, some nights we even get to do laundry.
Work has been good for both of us. We are getting in to the groove of things. On the weekends we explore all that the surrounding areas have to offer. We've visited many of the cities around Jacksonville: Swansboro, Hampstead, Holly Ridge, and Sneads Ferry. This past weekend, we visited some great friends that I graduated college with and enjoyed the Kentucky Derby! Ben and I even won $200 on the race!
We have just five more nights of living in this hotel until they give us the boot, and then we get to live with one of our gracious friends in their spare bedroom. We were set to close on our not so tiny home on 19 May, but there are some factors that have come in to play that are throwing us for a loop. We have turned our eyes to the Lord because frankly we aren't sure how this move will turn out, but we're excited to find out where we will end up living!
We are less than 30 days from the Best Goss Darn Wedding Ever and we couldn't be more excited! Trying to get all of the final details finished has been a bit of work, but exciting none the less. Looking forward to seeing you all there!
Sorry about the lack of pictures...there's not much to take pictures of when you live in a hotel for 20 days...
Sounds enchanting...wow. At least the only place is up for ya'll!! P.S. I personally enjoy HGTV, too, Jaime!
