What Next??

Well, dear reader, life has been very hectic since I last wrote. I worked on painting the house every chance I could for weeks. Then the worst happened. We discovered the house has a brown recluse spider infestation. I can't help but ask God "WHY??" After all the trouble we went through to get the house, the one thing that God knows I hate and cannot deal with. My parent's house was infested with them years ago. It took TWO YEARS to finally get rid of them. It was horrible. I DO NOT want to willingly go into a situation like that. Instead of hiring a professional exterminator to take care of the little nasties, my husband thinks he can do it himself. I am worried, however, that even if we were able to get rid of all the spiders, will I ever rest peacefully in that house? We have been desperately praying for guidance, for we don't know what to do. We have considered selling the house. Some people honestly are not that bothered by spiders (personally, I don't get it). So I suppose we are waiting for God to slap us upside the head with the answer. In the meantime, I have unpacked my boxes, and I have taken measures to make the house we live in as pleasant as possible.
A possible choice came to us just last week. A certain piece of land came up for sale that my husband has had his eye on. It's right across the street from my in-laws (joy, joy!) but it is a very pretty 40 acres. It even has a pond. The price is unbelievably cheap! My husband and I have pondered- is this what we are supposed to do? Were we never meant to live in the house we took such great pains to buy, and the Lord sent the spiders to keep us out? I mean, He knows how I feel about brown recluse spiders! It's not as though we would lose out if we sold the house- Phillip is quite confident that we can make our money back, plus a good sum. Anyway... praying and waiting...
