I entered work and that "quiet walk on the beach" feeling was whisked away by many monitors beeping, nurses chattering, patients wondering, and a schedule waiting to be filled up. After a busy morning, lunch, and a few patients in the afternoon I looked at my phone. Hmmmmm, three new text messages. Two were from Sam. The first one read, "First offer fell through on Cleveland and we are getting it! Our offer was accepted!! I am going to get them a cashiers check for the earnest money right now!! Praise the Lord!!!!" The second one read, "Seriously! How sweet is that?" I thought I would fall out of my chair!!!! I was so excited I didn't know whether to scream, jump up in the air, or sit and stare in amazement. I sat and stared for a few moments, then began repeating I can't believe it, oh my goodness. I forgot about the patient sitting to my right, who did not share my same excitement when told the news. The rest of the day I was glowing and praising God for another heartbreak turned to blessing.
The Cleveland house is the one I wrote about last week. It is in South Tampa on Cleveland street. It is very close to Sam's work, close to church, close to a 5 mile water front running/bike trail, close to the interstate, 20-30 minutes to the beach, and in a good school district. Now we pray the inspections go well, so that we can close on July 10th!
Here are a few photos for your enjoyment.
