Another milestone in the rebuilding process!

Words cant begin to describe my excitement!!!  It is official, I have a "real" job.  Not that my job at May and Co. wasn't real but....this is a nursing job.  I have been out of work since Oct, 2011 when I was led astray by some evil people offering jobs that they really didn't mean but it is just now that I can sit back and see.....it all happened for a very blessed reason.  If I had not left my great job in TX with people I dearly loved for an opportunity for move home closer to our family, I probably never would have left.  It was a huge blow to my ego but has turned into a valuable lesson of selflessness and faith.  For me to have given up a great job with great pay to move home without Jeff and be unemployed for 5 months....our saving tripled and we have not wanted for anything.  It has actually been the opposite.  I have worked odd and end jobs and learned a completely new career path (that I really am glad I am a nurse) but I have been open to do anything I could and witness the entire time.  It has been a tough 5 months and a lot of disappointment but in the end....It is sooo worth it.  God is good....all the time!!

So new at this....

Over time, I have read many blogs and have often thought that I might try doing it.  Seems like now is a perfect time since J and I are starting over, AGAIN, and this time things just seem different.  A good different.  We are both starting new careers, well Jeff started his WAY before me...but that is another blog of itself!  Now we are looking forward to the next phase of life...kids getting married...Grandkids...Did I mention Grandkids??  None yet but...one day!!
