God is so good! not only has He provided and well paying job for Joel but He provided a beautiful house for us to live in! well an apt anyways lol I love it and I'm so happy to be moving out of Larchmont I could just sing. Joel's job is great, he is working as a security officer... on a bike lol but he seems to enjoy it and apparently he could come back and work for them while he is a police officer to earn extra money if we need it! The apt is beautiful and it's two bedrooms and it's in Chesapeake which means we are about five minutes from the church and we can be more involved and i'm just way way excited. oh and there is a DISHWASHER!!!!!!! I don't think i've ever been so excited about one lone appliance in my entire life lol...

Ok so I know I stink at keeping up with this thing... I just kinda feel like there's no reason to post unless there is something going on... and in this thing I try to focus on the positive as much as possible... so... positive things in my life... I have a husband who loves me... a job... and a set of adorable pets... lol I know that sounds stupid but i've been trying to focus on all the positive little things in my life lately since our life has become what most people would call challenging... but really in the end I know that the Lord will provide something for us... he brought along a job opportunity just the other day and it looks like we just might get it... it's not perfect or anything... in fact its crappy hours for crappy pay... but that's ok because it is something... a stable job that will provide us with a stable home lol that isn't covered in mold and put food on the table... see I know the Lord is working things out because not only did He bring this job along but he has also made the apartment people desperate enough to hold our apartment for far longer then they should have... part of this new job is that I won't be going to school this semester, mostly because I need to get a job too in order to help out... but that's ok because I know that's the Lord's plan... and seriously who is better at planning life than God? not me that's for sure... so for all you guys who have been praying for us thank you and don't stop... Joel and I need all the prayer we can get lol

life is all about choices and right now there are a lot of choices for me to make... do i want to finish school... do i want to start a family... do i want to switch majors... do i want to move again... do i want chicken or beef for dinner... life is full of choices and some days they just seem to overwhelm me... choices choices choices... but choices are what make up our lives... the ability to make a choice isn't always a good thing... i always seem to waffle a lot between different choices forever.... but this time around i had a wonderful helpful man to help me out... dancing around decisions with Joel was interesting... do we do this... do we do that... I just have faith that the Lord will work it out... I'm glad he's there to watch over me...
