Oops! I did it again

Well, I broke my streak of posting once a month. You knew that would happen. Lol. Oh well, at least you got a break from my sometimes too deep of thoughts. So, here is a short little post to kind of catch you up.


We've been busy. In a different kind of way than your normal going here and there type way. Don't get me wrong, we've still been making our rounds of making functions but for the most part we've been spending a lot of time at home. Which I must say....I LOVE!!!


I've always been told I spread myself too thin and am always on the go so I've been working harder on not doing that to myself and to Jason. I know it has to drive him nuts at times to be on the go so much but he's a trooper and rarely complains. Thank you, honey!! So anyways....It's been a little hard at times to actually say NO to things but I realize it's ok to do that. I think the Lord let me know how okay it was on Sunday when the pastor spoke about this exact subject. I've always struggled with people pleasing and while I know for a fact that you can't please everyone, I still have a hard time with it. I've made up my mind that it's time to let it go. Completely go. It's a work in progress though. So far it's been great. I can't deny I'm actually kind of loving it. Not that I don't want to be around my loved ones but I don't feel the stress of having to rush every where all the time. Not to mention that our home loves us being there. Especially now that we have been doing some fun projects, which I look forward to telling you about on a different post, once we get everything done.


As you all know my job situation is kind of up in the air right now. Which has definitely played a role in us not doing so much too. We've cut back on a lot of outings and such. And are concentrating on finances and getting us into a good spot once my job goes away. As far as the home projects go, they are all on the thrifty side. Which you know I LOVE because it means...less expense! As of right now, they are saying September as the cut off date for my job, which has been pushed back a bit from the original date. Can't say I mind as that means I will have a job for a bit longer than I thought. Word around the office is that there are some posititions that are going to become available soon. I think I may try for one of them so wish me luck! Either way, I know God will lead me to where I am suppose to be next so this girl is feeling no pressure! Not to mention we've been there done that and He was always with us and never let us go without.


I want to sincerely thank all of our famiy and friends who continue to keep us in their thoughts and prayers. We love you guys!


Until next time!
