The Hunt Begins Soon

Happy Friday!
I know its been all week with no blog posts, but really there hasn't been much to talk about. At the beginning of the week I worked A LOT. Too much actually. I had a magazine being sent to print on Wednesday which means hurry scurry to the finish line for everyone. But it all went out with minimal tears and maximum hours. Haha.

Anyways, I think that the biggest thing that has come about this week is my realization that I may be unhappy with my career. I know that's a big deal huh! Holy crap. Sooo what does that mean for me? I will be putting in my 2 weeks (again) and upon that ending I will be looking for something a little different. I have already been searching for a few fun part time looking jobs here. One is doing office and front desk work at a Bed & Breakfast. How cool would that be?!
We'll see. I am taking it all in and looking at it as a new adventure. Finding my passion I guess. I would really love to do volunteer work or something working with people. Maybe I should have been a social worker, or like I told Robbie last night, I used to say I wanted to be a missionary when I was younger. :) (I also said I wanted to be a racecar driver and both of those sound better than what I am doing now. haha)

Anyways, this has been coming on for probably a year or so now. Just took the opportunity to be able to explore my options to actually get me to. I am very excited at what the future holds.
I am also sooo blessed to have a partner who supports me 1000%. And listens and understands. And wants first and foremost for me to be happy in what I am doing. I couldn't do this without him. Robbie is awesome, and I am so so peacefully but excitedly glad that God has brought us together to share life! The match is perfect and I can tell our lives will be filled with excitement, love, passion and joy to be sharing it with each other.

So with all that said, the hunt begins for my future part time job/s. Which will also free up time for me to work on the house as well and I will always have smaller freelance jobs to work on.

Please continue to pray for us both. God has given us both a fresh start and we are taking it. But prayer is always needed in helping direct our paths and knowing which way is best. I am leaning a lot on prayer as a lot of this seems crazy to me! :) haha But I am learning what it is to live life not according to my plan. And so far it's wonderful.

UPDATES ON THE BOYS

I seem to write a lot about whats going on with me, so I am going to try and keep a section dedicated to the boys as well. :)

I'll start with Jerad. He works A LOT. But he seems to be enjoying what he does. I can only imagine that he is awesome at it, because I can see the passion he has for life and for what he does. (as he talks about projects around the house) Jerad is also learning to play the guitar and pretty shortly he will surpass me and Robbie I think. haha
It is great listening to the 2 of them practicing and learning. We all were learning the other night an Adele song with Jerad strumming the chords, Robbie picking the detailed notes and me on vocals. We're going to go on tour soon I am sure of it! Jerad is a good father to none other than Brody. That doggy loves him so much, he won't even rough house with Jerad I think because he loves him so much. It's adorable. He also crawls up in bed with him in the morning. Haha. Sorry to call you out on that Jerad. But it's true. I'll have to post a pic one day!

And onto Robbie. He works A LOT too! :) I love waking up in the morning to Robbie getting ready for work. He wears the same uniform everyday and it is very detailed and has a lot of Velcro and zippers so it makes a lot of noise as he puts it all together. And I always wake up to the sound of this. And its adorable again. I know. Robbie started PT this week which means he started back his Physical Fitness Regimen at the end of his day with several others. Which btw he has a completely different uniform that he has to wear for that, and on Sunday we all 3 tore the house up looking for it to no avail. So long story short, he ordered 2 new ones. Ha. But anyways, Robbie has been very sore and super tired in the evenings from working out. I love to listen to his stories of his day though. Robbie teaches a lot lately and he is so funny. I am going to have to go sit in one of his classes and try not to crack up. Apparently he is a goofball and breaks the ice with a lot of goofiness. I can only imagine what an awesome teacher he is. He is so confident, smart and joyful, how could you not want him as a teacher. I am very proud of him as my partner in crime, but also just as my friend. What accomplishments he has done in his own life and in the lives of so many. I am truly blessed to be able to share in his life. And Robbie is an awesome dad to all the animals as well. He loves his cat Rema very much and plays with her so cutely. Both the boys have adopted Gray Baby as their own and he loves them both very much. He licks all over their heads and its so funny. They secretly love it, I know.

Anyways, we are all so glad its friday. Another week down! We have some house work to do this weekend and thats all I know for now. Have an awesome Friday everyone!
Love ya!

  1. YAY! I'm very excited for you and your new job adventures! I think that you will be glad to get away from the design stuff for a little while (as a job anyways). Things will fall into place and I'm sure that you are going to be thankful that you made this decision.
    Thanks for keeping us up on Uncle Bubba! It's makes my heart smile to know that he is doing well and enjoying LIFE!!!
    Love your description of Robbie's dressing routine :) so cute!
