Big Day

Today Chris and I got a call that we got our townhome, we had been wanting it so bad. The townhome is a two bedroom, two bath home. It is newly remodeled it is not even done, we get to move in Dec 1. We had been praying about it for a week now. When we first called about it they did not want pets in the new house, but after meeting with us, they decided to go ahead and allow it. The landlord had 10 other applicants and she thought about the decsion for several days, she called today and said she was happy to rent it to us. I could not believe it. IT is so pretty. New hardwood floors downstairs, new cabinets, and all new appliances. The upstairs is all new carpeting and the bathroom is all new also. We are so excited that God chose this home for us. After getting our home we decided to go donate blood. It took me three and a half years to talk chris into donating. I used to donate off and on, before I had gotten real sick with my heart. I have not been able to donate for two years because of my heart, but because of God's goodness I donated today. I was so excited to be helping people again. I had to keep talking Chris through it, the entire staff at the blood bank was talking to him. He had four women around him just giggling with him and then all the sudden I looked over and he passed out. All the nurses jumped into action and brought him back around. Good news is he is a fast bleeder so they got all they needed before he went out. I felt bad because I could not get up because I still was donating. After waking up the nurses and I told him he has to try it two more times before he can decided if he is never going to do it again. I am so proud of him. He is so scared of blood and needles but he put that aside to help someone else. Chris I am so proud of you baby.
