Leaving Work

Resigning from my current job has been more than difficult. I accepted the position last August and was not too sure about it. But, I had been praying to be led where I was meant to be and knew that this was the place. The past year has been full of ups and downs, and I have loved every minute of working for this company. I get more support than most of my friends in the same field. I have the corporate feeling while still being in a school setting. I only have to work 40 hours (and sometimes less, although sometimes more).

When I told my boss and a few others that He had been transferred, I cried. I'm so sad to go. I will miss the support that I have from co-workers. I will miss the relationships that I have built with co-workers. But most of all I will miss the clients that I help. They are amazing, and I love knowing that I can impact the lives of so many adolescents on a daily basis.

It's sad to leave such a great network of people.

I've been talking with a school in our new town. It's a wonderful opportunity. But, I cannot help but compare it to my current job. Maybe it's the unknown that is so daunting.

Am I the only person that has experienced this?

Small Town Happenings

Today He and I were walking into a home improvement store when a car drove by with a girl hanging out the window.

She said, "Hey, your boyfriend is pretty cute!"

Random. But so true! I think He's good looking and most amazing guy in the world. Even if he's my husband, not my boyfriend.

We have appliances!

Last weekend we bought our appliances for the new house. We were planning on waiting, but the deals were so great that we just couldn't pass them up! Now, we were able to do this b/c He is the only one on the mortgage since I do not have a confirmed job just yet. So I could put them all on my credit card and we'll pay it off as soon as we close. If He had been linked to such a large purchase we might have lost the loan, even though we have the cash to pay for it. Crazy, I know!

Anyways, here's what we got. We decided to go with the front loading washer and dryer since the price was actually less than buying the traditional style.

Our refrigerator was a bit of a splurge, but we did our research and loooove this style! There is a water dispenser inside the door, so it doesn't take up half of our door space. We think it will give our kitchen a little bit of a 'pop'.

The store we went through is a national chain, so we were able to order it in our current town and schedule delivery for our new town after we close. We're really excited for everything to come together.
