Wow! That's all I have to say! The last 24 hours have been crazy.. it feels like something behind us pushing things along, being like "this is what you are supposed to do".

Its only been a couple days since I officially decided that the nursing program wasn't what I was wanting to do. And almost immediately after making that decision things have been happening. I feel awesome and things just are falling together.

I met my mom yesterday for brunch and we were sitting and talking. Once we got talking all these ideas that I hadn't even really realized were floating around in my head started coming out. Once I mentioned one little idea to her, it was like a flood gate. She gave a little bit of input and it was a couple hours of me totally making some life changing decisions.

My friend owns a house that I rented a room from her before, about four hours away form where I am currently living now. I loved that area and it's a town that my boy friend and I had mentioned would be somewhere we would be interested in checking out in a year or so when we plan on buying a house. He was planning on moving six hours from where he is living right now to be with me (hence the job/apartment searching mentioned in my last post).

Anyways, my friend called me the other day to mention how she really wanted to move but didn't know what she would do with her house and the two horses she has right now. She didn't want to sell yet because of how the market is, but didn't want to rent it out and not know if people would trash her house, or not look after the horses. She was in a real bind. All of a sudden it dawned on me... I'll rent her house!

Now, of course I hadn't mentioned it to my boyfriend yet, but he pretty much is cool with what I want and it was closer to where he is living and to his dad, whom he is close with. I could go back to school there if I wanted and I love the school there, I can ride, the house has fields, acreage and a barn. It was an awesome idea. We would be out in the country which is what we both like, and he can blare his music or play his electric guitar and the people on the other side of the wall won't be calling the cops.

I called my friend, and she was almost jumping out of her skin!!! She thought it was an awesome idea and couldn't wait to sort things out. She was so happy with the idea that she is only charging us enough rent to cover her mortgage of approx 500$!! and she will give us the option of buying down the road. The only draw back is rather than him being able to move here in 2 weeks its going to be 2 and 1/2 months... which means us not being close for a while longer and him working at a job he is miserable at for even longer. But long-run its an awesome opportunity and with the money we will be saving we can buy that house or another one hopefully in a year.

So I talked to him, he was thrilled! And first thing this morning my friend calls me back and asks if I would want to move in a month and a half sooner than we had first mentioned! She is trying to get the last 2 months of her consolidation for school done down south and that means her leaving sooner! I am sooo excited, and can't believe how well things just "clicked" together in less than 24 hrs.

Can't wait to see what is next!!!
