WHERE ARE YOU GOING TO PUT IT?

August 5, 2014

I DON’T KNOW!

πŸ™‚

C’mon.  We didn’t know how we were going to get a new roof either and that happened.  So, totes whatev.

Our TINY HOUSE will be finished in 2-3 days.
Right now it’s at the build site.  Can’t live there!
Then it will be moving to a family members’ land (again, sharing details when it’s allowed!) which we’re so very thankful for.

Ryan works in Shakopee so the Tiny House cannot stay this far North for long. 

We have a few leads.  Our current favorite is a campground that is open year round.  We can stay there all winter!  It’s only eight miles from Ryan’s work!  The next nearest campground open through the winter is over an hour away.

The campsite is great!  Has perfect amenities for helping us transition during the first year.  This is our best option.  Aaaaaand the winter monthly sites are full.  πŸ™  We’re about tenth on the waiting list. 

Shucks.

We’re praying.  My parents are praying.  Ryan’s parents our praying.

Yesterday we were sharing these details with our executive producer and director.  They want to know exactly where we’ll be staying and for how long; I just don’t have the answers. 
Then I hear the words, “We’ll take care of it.”

Ha! She’s immediately writing an email, filling in details, and delegating.  For us!
Did that just happen!?
WELL!  We will see what comes of this!

We know that they have 80 sites open in the summer and close half of them for the winter.  I’m hoping that this just opens up one of those that are destined to be closed.  Obviously they cannot kick someone else out.  Pshh, that would be bizarre.  I just think it’s important to tell you that detail so it’s clear we’re not trying to be ruiners.  !

So!  Ryan says it’s in God’s hands.  πŸ™‚ 
Our prayer is just that God places us exactly where He wants us.  That’s the ideal location for sure. 

This is FUN!  Actively pursuing every option while passively waiting for God to reveal His plans.  Easy. 

There was only one day a few weeks ago when I had worry about where we would live.  I sent it out as quickly as it came.  God has not given us a spirit of fear. 

So when people ask where we’re going to put it (one of the top 5 questions), we say we don’t know, and they’re eyes bug out of their heads I remind myself -and them- that living in the tiny house is about flexibility, seizing opportunities, and following God’s plan as He reveals it to us.  I don’t need to know right now where we’re going to be. 

That’s the beauty of it!
