When we first moved out here to Cali...we literally brought nothing with us except our computer, an office chair, and a very small desk. We needed to fit in a fifth wheel. Living in a trailer lasted about 6 months until I reached my breaking point. I didn't like the fact that you could practically wash the dishes while standing in the bathtub. Okay I am exaggerating, but not by much. We found an apartment, and jumped at it. I was so excited to move in. It took us a total of about 15 minutes to do that because...we didn't have anything!! we took turns sitting on the office chair. The other person had to hang out sitting on the floor. We slept on a blow up mattress. All of a sudden I realized that this was not as fun as when I was in my twenties. Well dang.
One day I was lamenting in my prayers...I really need some furniture, but no extra money. Please send help Heavenly Father. Is there anyone who just happens to have a house full of furniture that wants to give it away for free? Turns out, there ARE people who fit that description! I looked up Craig's list and you guessed it...there is a "FREE" category, and out here it is quite amazing! Within 24 hours of my complaining prayer..I had an apartment full of furniture that cost $0. K, maybe not zero...but seriously almost!
Nothing matches, and that's okay! A little outdated...and THAT'S okay! It's ALL OKAY! I'll take it! Thanks Craig.
