Just when you think things just aren’t going to work out, hold on just a bit longer.
Keep that hope alive as things have a way of working out.
I do my best to keep my expectations in check. Seems like while I don’t always get what I want, I always get what I need. That song is so true. But when it came to continuing to live in apartments with lame HVAC equipment and loud neighbors, I was nearing the end of my rope. However, I did my best to keep my chin up and keep on plugging away. That paid off in a very big and most surprising way. A somewhat distant relation actually ended up leaving me a house. I mean one day, I’m living in an apartment. The next day, I’m a homeowner. Due to the fact that my career is just not all that high paying, I thought I was destined to rent forever. But thanks to a great uncle, I’ve got a house. Granted, the house needed a lot of work but it was structurally sound and sat on 10 acres. I could hardly believe it. In fact, I called the law office from the letterhead to be sure it wasn’t a joke. The house was indeed mine. And the first order of business to make it liveable was to get some good residential HVAC in that place. Since I wasn’t saving for a downpayment any longer, I could use my savings to get the sort of HVAC equipment I always wanted. And I have to say that owning my own HVAC equipment is as good as I thought it might be.
