In Our Possession

We bought our elliptical this weekend. Did you know that Wal-Mart sells exercise equipment? We went to Play it Again Sports a few weeks ago all ready to buy, but the one we wanted was gone. We got a medium-sized new machine for $200 - which is actually cheaper than the used ones at PIAS once you add delivery. The one from Wal-Mart doesn't need delivery, because, get this - you put it together yourself! I'm not sure how safe it will be, or how long it will last, but hopefully I'll lose a few pounds before it falls apart.

We're not taking it out of the box yet, because our housing situation is a little uncertain at the moment. I've been pretty stressed - I woke up at 3:30 this morning and didn't fall back to sleep until 6:00! I couldn't stop thinking about all the houses we were seeing today, all the things that would need to be done if we do get an offer, and believe it or not - how sad I'll be to leave our condo.

I was really worried that we wouldn't find anything we liked and what we did like would be out of our price range. I'm also feeling a little unsure about our move to Avon. We know it's the right place for us and mostly it's just my aversion to change talking, but it does feel far away from other things in our life.

We actually saw two houses that we really liked. One of them is almost identical to the house we wanted this summer. We sat down when we got home and made a pros/cons list for each home, discussed every angle, and then spent some time praying. We think we know what we'll do if we get an offer, but we're ok if we don't. That's a good place to be!
