Moving woes

Sometimes life brings unfortunate events, and our family has definitely experienced this over the past months.  Knowing that we would be adding a caboose to our family, we decided to proceed with the search for a new house and the sale of our old one.  Despite knowing that this was the right thing to do, Joseph and I still mourn for our beloved home on Jardines.  We had many wonderful memories in this home and its so weird to drive by it and know that it isn't ours anymore.  For some reason out of our control, we are currently homeless and bunking at my inlaws.  What started as a three month stay has now turned into a ??? as we have yet to find a suitable replacement.  I am trying hard to let my faith carry me through this setback, but the situation is very discouraging.  For those unfamiliar with the California housing market, it is NUTS.  Unless you have your ducks in a row AND get lucky, you simply cannot buy a house.  It is very common for nice homes to get sold in 2 days with 10 offers at once.  Foreign money also brings cash buyers, which blocks out the locals.  I guess we should be grateful that we live in a desirable place!
