Catching up

I am in the middle of moving so bare...bear...???...with me as I am here and there on my blog!

Work: SUX! I am so mad at them! Not only was I demoted earlier this summer...and then told I couldn't relocate to a different store (just for my own sanity and refreshment)...and not being paid the correct amount per hour...I was just told I owe the company $330 because somewhere in the time I have been there they over paid me and want me to pay them back a little bit at a time. Uhm. No. Sorry. Hopefully they wont take my last check because we really need the money and I really don't want to decided whether or not to take them to court. BLAH....yuck HOWEVER, I do felt like I received a little bit of closure with my Regional Manager who said I had great customer service, good energy, and shook my hand and wished me all the best of luck.

Church: Sunday was our last day with our church family and I cried nearly all day. I was on worship team, said goodbye to lots of people after service, had Stac over for the afternoon, than went to Gumrai Thai for the evening with our group. Yea. Cried the last 15 minutes...Jamie and I hardly talked all the way home...and then there was crying on and off the rest of the evening and hardly any happiness. Even Monday I caught myself crying here and there. And today I had a moment where it took everything in me not to burst out in tears. I am going to really really miss this group of people. I know that God brings you into and takes you out of places all the time. I think 80 percent of the reason God brought us up here was to meet these people and make life long friends.

Home: Our home is nearly packed up...just the kitchen and clothes and we are KINDA procrastinating ; ) We have a truck reserved for Friday. On Thursday we are going to move everything in to the garage so that when we DO get the truck we will just load it from there. Utilities are nearly set up, just one more phone call and a stop in Peru's office.

Family: Justice is growing like a weed and Jubilee is learning new words and phrases by the minute! Ricky is coming tomorrow to help us load up. GUY is flying into Ohare on Monday (which means I am driving back up here lol) and then my parents will be coming the following Thurs for an early Christmas...SO I have lots going on with that as well : ) Middle of this month I am also planning to go see all of my cousins in Ohio....WHAT A CRAZY MONTH!!!!

Me: I am feeling good. Even though I have a LOT going on and a LOT to think about...I am super thankful. God has paved the way for all of this and has given me a good attitude even in the hard times. I am normally not good with change (I am sure I will find my meltdown moments any day now) but so far so good. I also still feel this intimacy with God and am thankful that He is faithful to me and loves me...even when I feel super busy or am feeling down.

WELL that's my update....will be on here when I can!

Whats going on around here???


We move November 5th into our 3 bedroom 1 bath HOUSE! (only 435 a month) RIGHT next to Aaron and Retta and there three boys (all three and under) we are excited for the most part!

Except that yesterday I cried through most of church hahaha

Jamie starts work on the 8th of November and his last day at his current job is the 31st.

Guy is flying in to Ohare also on the 8th! Which means THREE days after we move in I will be driving back up here to get him : ) BUT I am sooooo pumped!

Mom and Dad are coming a couple of days later to have an early holiday celebration! (Hopefully I can be mostly unpacked with a Christmas tree up by then! haha)

I am back to working one day a week...so far it isn't too awful

My girls are so stinkin' cute...like...wow. I brag way too much about them : )

Harry Potter is coming out next month! WAAA HOOOO!

Our four year wedding anniversary is on the 11th of November

Today we are sitting in our pj's doing nothing (actually Jamie did clean some this morning! what a sweetie)...when we should be packing...but laziness was a MUCH needed thing around here. We have been way to busy lately. So we have been eating pizza and playing xbox and watching Episode III and Rocketman!

I have a really cool idea that I need to get off of the ground...maybe I will wait to dig into it too much until after we move : )
