I had an amusing experience. Mind you, at the time it wasn't very funny, but for now I can look back and just say thank God because He is still there directing my ways.

I would rather not share the whole experience, but I wanted to share just how stupid even I am when it comes to direction. You know, sometimes even the smallest of decisions can affect us is such amazingly great ways, and I knew that this tiny little decision would probably grow into something of great proportions which I didn't...

Here's some before and after pictures. The apartment...
