What's been going on lately.

It's been awhile since I posted about what's been going on in my little ol' life. 

Lately, I've been so busy I can't think. I've been trying to just take things a day at a time, and blogging has taken a back burner. And that makes me sad. 

Here's what's been happening. 

• We are buying a house. I haven't talked much about it because every time I do, I jinx something. But at this point I think it's okay to talk about. Can't wait to show you pictures. We're supposed to be closing on the 25th. 13 short days. WOO HOO!!
• I'm graduating from college in about 3 weeks. I've decided not to walk. But the thought of finishing school has both frightened and excited me. I also have a mean case of senioritis and I don't want to do anything. 
• I'm still looking for a job to pursue after school gets done. I had an interview this week, we'll see if that pans out. (fingers crossed).
• God has been blessing Jacob and I a lot lately. We were struggling to keep our sanity last month and this month He is taking good care of us. It's funny what can happen when you give God the control. 

So yea... between being a wife (which I need to improve at), buying a house (which can suck and be awesome at the same time), and trying to finish school (so close!!), I have been a little busy. 

I have big plans for May involving the blog. I can't wait to share. 

Until next time, friends. Please excuse my absence over the next couple of weeks.

I will leave you with a couple of pics from Easter. 

With love! 

Sweet (most of the time) Nephew, Grant James.

To-Do Tuesday: Get a job!

"Get a job"

I've been working for a few weeks now on putting together a resume, portfolio, and actually going to apply for jobs. I've been searching and applying to what seems like a million jobs. Yet, I haven't heard back from anyone yet.

How should I perceive this? Should I be patient? Should I continue to hunt?

I have been going out of my mind to figure out what the heck God is going to do with me.
Have you heard that quote, "Want to make God laugh; tell him your plans"

So today's to-do is to have some faith in the big, wonderful God that is GOING to do something with me.

What are you doing today? Is there something on your heart?

Verse on my heart- Take what you need.

This is the verse that God has put on my heart today. Take what you need from this verse. 

What's On My Heart.

I am disconnected from the situation, but not by much. 

Once upon a time, there were two young kids in love with the wrong people. 

One, 22, a recent college graduate married a city woman and moved her into the country. 

One, 17, married to the father of the child she had in her. 

Years passed. 

The city woman grew tired of the country side. 

The young mother grew tired of an absentee father. 

They divorced. 

But, they found their happy ever after in each other. 

Even longer into the future, 

The young mother's oldest child, marries the father of the child she had in her. 

14 years later, they divorce. 

I hate this cycle. 

I really feel like it doesn't have to be like this, but it is. 

People get divorced. Families are torn apart. And the cycle continues. Seriously, when does it end?  

*Will you be the first to BREAK the generational curse on your family??

-I will.
