Day 670 and surprise blessing

This morning, I checked my OU e-mail box and had a notification that I would be getting a financial aid refund from the college deposited to my bank tomorrow. I was perplexed because I thought I had already received all of my financial aid. So I looked and there did appear to be another scholarship added, but it was one I thought I had already got. So I called the office to make sure it was not a mistake. Apparently, it was not a mistake, it was a different scholarship. So that money should be deposited tomorrow. I'd been wondering how we were going to have the money to pay our house insurance and car insurance next week if that family is not able to come back. As usual, God was watching out for us.

Update on the car situation. We have been given the chance to buy the car we've been borrowing and for a really good price. We are going to take advantage of that, so we are still looking for one car. We've got about $1500 left to spend if anyone hears or knows of a good used vehicle in that price range.

The scholarship news is great! You are right, God is watching out for you. The Honda seems to be a really good deal, and hopefully you can find another car that is in good shape. Things are looking up. Hopefully things will work out with your daycare family, too.

Thanks Chell!
Di, I'm sure things will work out okay. I'm trying really hard not to obsess about it.
