Winter is here and it's just lovely, for the most part. I love how everything looks all covered in white. It's much better than having everything just look dead. It's hard to believe that it's almost Christmas already. Time seems to be moving so quickly. I think I am ready for it...at least mostly. There's a few gifts left to take care of but nothing big to deal with! That's especially nice as Devon is off track until after the new year!!
We have yet to put up our Christmas tree or any of our lights. The kids are getting antsy about it. Hopefully this weekend. Maybe the weather will cooperate. I think it will be good to get all that up as I don't feel much holiday spirit at the time. Maybe some holiday music will help with that. I do enjoy listening to that.
We are just a short time away from Jared being done with the military. January is coming up fast. He's had a few nibbles in the job hunt but no bites yet. It's hard to find a job as an instructional designer I guess. I'm sure the right job will come along and everything will work. At least, that's what we keep telling ourselves. We are both scared out of our minds right now. It's very hard to imagine giving it all up-income, insurance, etc, without even having another job lined up yet. Although we're scared, we still feel like it's the right decision for our family. Jared is a hard worker and will find something, even if it's not the ideal job. I can get a job anywhere...it doesn't take much to get a job at walmart or something. There are jobs out there....just depends on what you are willing to do. The plus to it all is that Jared will be getting full pay until close to the end of February though. That will help out at least.
We have hope for everything...that's all we can do right now. Things will work out. It's a wonderful time of year to celebrate and be together as a family. Hopefully, things will work out soon.
