Hello again!

WOW! It's been a while....like since August...oops!

Seriously, I have never been as busy as I have been this past year.

First of all being a teacher is the hardest job I have ever worked. It is just non stop and the work doesn't stop when you leave school at 3:00 like most people think it does. As challenging and as hard as it may be I do love what I am doing right now and am getting so much experience for what I have planned in the future.

So not only is my job keeping me busy but I have also decided to continue my education and go back to school. So I have been trying to get everything completed for that. Thankfully the application process is finally over. Now I just get to sit back and wait...fun!

Also on top of working and possibly Grad school.....I'm getting married! I have so many posts I need to write so I can fill you all in (all two of you LOL).

So, I have been a little bit busy and have not had time to sit down and write like I used to. I am going to get back on it because I want to document all of these exciting things in my life! I love looking back and reading exactly what I was thinking or what was happening. I always remember more when I have it documented and I love having something to look back on.

More to come soon.....

One of the ways that the enemy tries to pull me away from Jesus is through anxiety and negativity. I have struggled with anxiety for the greater portion of my life but it really reared its nasty, ugly head when I was pregnant with my son. I was so anxious and depressed that I developed habits that caused me to not recognize myself. I struggled with anxious, intrusive thoughts that continued after he was born. I tried so diligently to recover the woman I was before. I remember talking with precious jewel of a woman who, looking back, has not been constant in my life but God has always placed her with me at such important and formative moments. She spoke with me on a hot summer day about a year after Eli was born about how precious pregnancy and motherhood truly was. I am not good at quoting so forgive me but she spoke words that went something like "this time is such a gift from God and I truly became closer to Him because I was so amazed at what He was doing". I remember bein

General Life Update 2018

So, my life has always been somewhat crazy but the past year to year and a half has been a real whirlwind. In August, before we got married I started attending Graduate School to become a School Psychologist. I was certain that this was the path that I needed to walk down. I loved what I was doing in the beginning, it was fun and exciting and I was getting to really help children. Late in the fall I started to feel overwhelmed. I started the semester working full time as a teacher, driving an hour and a half to school and back three times a week, and trying to be a newlywed. I cut back my hours at work so that I was working only part time thinking it would solve my problems but it didn't. I got sick that Christmas, like I normally do in the winter but somehow it seemed different than normal. The spring semester started off well, I attended a conference in Columbia for free, which was exciting. However, things quickly went downhill I became even more stressed juggling school, wo

I just have to get this out of my head... I just heard the news of the Charleston shooting. I'm deeply saddened by this... the fact that someone would walk into a place of worship and feel the need to take the lives of the people there. What that young man did was horrifying and I could never begin to imagine the pain and suffering those people are going through. Not only should we be praying for those who have lost loved ones or were injured... We also need to pray for the shooter for he fell victim to Satan himself just like many of us do every day. While his sin was more permanent and more devastating, that does not mean that he can't find repentance and mercy in The Lord. I know it is very hard to pray for and love someone who has caused so much pain but as Christians it is our duty. I am so glad that people are willing to offer up prayer in support of those suffering. However, while those people are offering prayer and support for the victims, they are tearing down
