Homeless

We are officially homeless. Our Loth Lorian house has been sold in Virginia! We hope and pray that our old neighbors have a nice, new neighbor. Now if we can just get a signed lease agreement on the house in Chon Buri, Thailand, near the boys school. The landlord will hopefully return from her vacation this weekend and we will have a contract early next week and the contractors can begin the needed work on the house soon. We would like to be in the house in two weeks. We love the Dusit Resort but want to start getting settled soon. Our air-shipment has already arrived and is waiting somewhere, not quite sure where? Hopefully our sea shipment will arrive in a month or so. Most rental properties here are fully furnished, we are negotiating a cheaper price to lease without furnishings. Thankfully, we brought quite a lot of our own furniture hoping that it would make the transition a little easier for the boys. The furniture that is currently in the house, which consists of two living room sets, is very cheapo. What we don't have we will just purchase here. I'm posting a few pictures of the house, when you look at the pictures pray for us that we would get a signed contract soon and that it would be a happy home, a light on the hillside, a place of hospitality where God will be glorified!

Praying for the contract to come through, and for your home to be a light on the hill to your neighbors & community. What a beautiful house!

Hey girl!
Thank you so much for giving us the invite to your blog. I have been praying for you and now I'll know more specifics. The house looks beautiful and I'm sure you will have it looking like home very soon!

Keep up the good work on the blog. It is so nice to be able to share your adventures.

Blessings,

Debbie (for the whole Goodman crew)

Howdy JoRonda,
God keeps reminding me of how you found your house on Little Redwood by knocking on doors, and I keep thanking Him for His provision of you as my neighbor. Once again, He will provide for you. He is Jehovah Jirah. Read Psalm 84 this week. You shall dewll in His house forever, and He does care where you live now. Oh, who's going to get their Thai driver's license first; you, or Dustin and Nathan?
Love ya,
Vivian
