Busy Busy

Well...  what a whirlwind!  So much has happened since my last post.  Moving was insane and we got so much done in such a short period of time!  I am so pleased with what we can get done when have really have to chip in and do what we can for our family!  It would be a lie if I said that there was no tear shed during this time!  I think all of us cried at least once.  We were tired and stressed and just plain and simple didn't want to move.  Nothing about it was something any of us wanted to do.  But... we got it done.  We are getting there...  We had to get a storage unit and slowly but surely having to get more and more moved in there.  Thankfully we have a little bit of room for growth there.

All and all, we are getting settled in.  It's A LOT smaller than the old place, so that has been taking some getting used to.  I'm not sure that we are ever going to get used to it, but hopefully that will give us some motivation to buy a home sooner than later!

And...  Just to make my life more complicated, I decided to get a new job.  This has been something that has been in the works for a while now.  Even though I have only been at the last job for a little over a year, for the last six months I have just not been happy.  There has been a lot of communication issues between me and my formal boss.  I had run into issues that I never really ran into before.  I have always been a hard worker and never really had to convince anyone of that.  It just always showed organically.  Unfortunately I didn't see a way for my boss to trust and respect me.  Although I had been honest and transparent, I didn't feel like I was ever going to get through.  Sometimes, some people just aren't meant to communicate. 

I moved on to a new adventure!  It's been really hectic to say the least.

Between the move and the new job, I am craving some normalcy.  Hopefully that comes sooner than later.  Wish me luck!

Prayers Answered

It's funny...  Sometimes you put things out into the universe and hope that by some miracle it returns with good news...

I have prayed and pleaded and have had these conversations with myself on what if we don't get approved for an apartment (previous post).  My husband suffers from extreme anxiety and depression and I have been trying to be strong for him and our son.  Assuring them it's going to all be alright.  That I have faith.  That we will figure this out...  Then I at the same time, would be concerned.

Last night, I  made a decision, to blog again.  I have  done it off and on in the past, but it never stuck.  I at times have a case of ADD and get distracted.  My blogs have never had an identity.  I am a crafty person and love to create things.  So I have a lot to talk about.  I also want to make sure this is personal as well.  My true self.  Whatever is going on in my life you're going to hear about it.  If there is anyone one listening...


Even if no one is reading this right now.  Just getting concerns and stress on paper and out of my heart and head has felt great.

And....

This morning we got an approval of an apartment.   Thank God!!  I don' think my husband and I have slept or eaten in the last week because of all of this.

We have a lot more work to do, but it looks like we can start to move forward and get out of this limbo that we are in.
