Approaching move

Our move to Rochester is only 4 months away! Man, time is going by fast. We're excited for the move, but honestly, it's been pretty hard trying to save up the money necessary for the trip. We're figuring we're gonna need somewhere around $3500 for it. The great thing is that I get monthly & quarterly bonuses at my job that will greatly help us out. But that alone won't be enough. So we're really having to hold back on a lot of things to save up the money. It sucks. We love hanging out with our friends on the weekends, going out to eat, seeing movies, and of course I like buying books; but the fact is we're just not gonna be able to do those things over the next 4 months. I just hope our friends understand.

We would have been fine if Sarah's car hadn't crapped out a couple months ago. Now we've got a car payment every month we didn't expect. We were questioning yesterday that if God really wants us to go to Rochester, then why is it so hard to come up with the money right now? Why did her car give out months before the move? But I don't think God's will is always easy with no snags along the way. I still feel this is the right move, and that God has some great stuff for us up there. Despite the difficulty right now saving for the December move, I think we'll be alright. So be praying for that if you could.

In better news, I found out this week that I got accepted to St. John Fisher College in Rochester for the spring semester. I also received a decent transfer achievement scholarship.
