God is so good!

Wow! It's just amazing what God can do. Well we called on the fridge ourselves to get it fixed on Saturday. No one would come out and look at it until today (Tuesday). We were talking to the realtor and she said call the home warranty people. We got a home warranty but didn't think it was covered because we are taking the fridge and washer with us.

Well guess what, it was covered and they paid for an emergency call on Sunday! It only cost us $55 to fix both the fridge and the washer. He didn't have the parts for the washer so he is coming back tomorrow but we won't have to pay another $55 deductible.

We went looking at 4 houses yesterday. We found one that looked like it might be perfect. 135K, a pool, 1/2 acre, 2200 sq. ft and out in the country but in a subdivision so no septic or well water. We went out to look at it and it had wallpaper from the 80's falling down and no trees but the layout was perfect for us. We then went into the basement and found some mold along the walls. Apparently there was a leak and they were going to fix it. We just didn't know what to do. We kept praying that God would give us a sign if we should buy it or not. We don't really want a pool and we didn't know if they cleaned up the mold if it would be good enough or if it would happen again. Well about 15 minutes after we left and we were debating about it the listing agent called and said they had accepted an offer already. That was our sign! Yeah!

On a side note, I found out today that our loan officer said we can get the loan in as little as 5 days so we have a few extra days to look for a house! Yeah!

Then I tried getting the 2 year old printer fixed. It was going to cost between $30-$100 plus parts and then I remembered we had bought an extended warranty on it. We couldn't find the receipt and warranty so I called Office Max and they said they would fix it anyway for us! I was so happy and then I found out we would have to send it in (at their cost) but it will be 2 weeks before they will send me a $300 gift card for the cost of the printer! We can't go two weeks without the printer for the business.

I thought "well we will just have to deal with it." Mike decided to look once more for the receipt and HE FOUND IT! Yeah! So I took it back to the store. They didn't have the same printer but they had one that was close for only $179!!! I was able to buy the new printer to use now, send the old one back and get a $300 gift card for it. Then I can go back to the store and they will refund the new printer off my credit card and put it on the gift card instead! Here we get a brand new printer and $100 refund!! I just can't believe it!

I think it's so wonderful that God fixed the printer and gave us an extra $100 on top of that!

We are going out to look at houses tomorrow morning again so keep your finger crossed.
