In the book "Mouse Tales" there's a story called "The Journey" where every time the mouse needs something new there is someone on the side of the road selling that thing.
WELL, in the same spirit, you will never guess what just opened about three blocks away from our new house. A HABITAT FOR HUMANITY RESTORE! It's not a big one, but the first time I walked in, I found a window that is exactly what we need for our front room (within a couple of inches)...for $125! The super nice restore crew delivered it on Thursday AND hauled away the sinks, cabinets, and doors that we had been intending to drop off.
Yes, I know that "a few inches different" could spell trouble. The thing that made this purchase possible is that Jonathan's dad will be here in a few weeks!
Jerry is amazing about making things work, huh?
