Las Vegas - so far...

It's so weird not having constant internet access right now, but then again, I'm far too busy to get online very much at all. I do wish I had my computer, though.

We went house hunting again today, and we found a great place that we're putting an offer on. Third time's the charm? Maybe? I hope so. This one's in the right neighborhood, the right size, the right yard, and the right price - right enough that we are offering more than the asking price! New carpeting, linoleum, paint... I'm already picturing our stuff in it. Am I setting myself up for a huge let down? Probably. Then again, it's good to remain positive - and a few prayers don't hurt either.

Keep us in your prayers. We are desperate to get out of the lodging that we're in and into a home.

Tomorrow, I will most likely be checking out a local Orthodox church. I definitely need it, that's for sure.

Many prayers. House hunting and moving are some of my least favorite activities. Hope you find "the one" soon!

Best wishes!

I've heard good things about the OCA church in Las Vegas, one of the families in our parish's mom used to go there.

Prayers and hope to hear a good update soon!

My husband is in the military, and so we're stationed out here now. That's why we moved.

We hope we'll hear about this house soon. I just want to know if I'm buying a house or moving into base housing.
