I keep thinking I will keep up with all the events and happenings in our lives, and yet when it comes down to it, my blog always suffers being last on the priority list. In my last post I said I would post more about the wedding I was in, and some other things. I sadly failed in doing so. Anyway, I guess it's time to get back on the horse and try it again. Funny how that seems to be the mantra of my life.
Who knew so much could happen in the past month. Life has definitely been a roller coaster. I'll try to sum it up as much as possible!
-A few weeks ago EW and I had a small financial crisis. One small mistake turned into a huge one, and it really tested our relationship. Knowing that money issues is the number 1 reason for divorce, financial stuff always make me nervous. I think it's because EW and I were brought up in very different situations when it comes to money. Luckily things worked out, and I have taken steps to make sure it never happens again.
-This past week was my first week working more hours at work. On of the 4/5yr old teachers moved up, and I am now in the 4/5 room in the morning and in the 2/3 room in the afternoon. I loved my job before, and getting more hours and $ makes it even better!
-I have started a new path in life, or I guess you could call it a journey. I don't want to go into it all right now, since I said I would keep it short, but I will definitely be posting on it in the future. I have been dealing with some inner demons lately, and it's kinda hard to talk about to people close to me, let alone everyone who reads this. My family has been very supportive and of course EW, who is always my #1 fan/cheerleader. As I go farther along down this path, my hope is to blog about it, and hopefully share my story. (Very cryptic right? Maybe I'll get more followers!)
-I can't believe it's the end of June already! In a couple weeks, my baby brother will turn 23! I remember the day he was born. It definitely rocked my world. The day he came home from the hospital, I looked in the bassinet and knew my life would never be the same. Look foreword to a sappy Birthday post!
-We decided to stay at our current location for another 7 months (which will put us here till Feb.) Moving in Feb. will most likely suck, but hopefully the rent will be cheaper wherever we decide to move next. I'm really hoping for a washer and drying in unit! If you haven't seen our place, you have a bit longer. I would like to have another party sometime this fall, maybe something themed?
Now for some pictures! (These are kinda backwards in date, but you get the point)
