Happy October!

October has brought some new direction for our family. I have a job. A job that will be a good long term job! A job that will enable me to still be Mom, and Wife. I am so excited about it and feel that I can now plan some things in my life. This means I will have added income to our family. This means we are that much closer to a smooth transition of the hubby retiring from the military. It is a welcomed happy blessing in so many ways.

Here are a few goals that I want to accomplish in the future, near or far:

Complete an MBA program with Honors
Run another Half Marathon
Think about running another Marathon
Become completely debt free
Live debt free and bless others with the wealth God has blessed us with
Travel: Europe, India, Australia, Africa (not in any order)


Working full time is going to present the challenge of getting to the gym. I will have to make it a priority in order for it to happen. Either 4 am in the morning or after work (even harder than waking up early). So like I have seen I have to PICK MY HARD. I have a desk job, and my activity level will decrease. I will have to be vigilant with what I eat. I will have to be vigilant about getting my body moving.

Meanwhile my new job is going amazing for my children and their development in life. It is helping us establish ourselves in our new community. It will be the gateway to a life filled with community, neighbors, friends, and memories.

While my job is nothing that I thought I would do in my life. I see how the Lord has blessed me with EXACTLY what I needed for me and my family. Trust in the Lord. Pour your heart, desires, and heartaches to Him. He listens and will bless you. It may not be what you thought it would be, but know that He has your best interest in mind. That He knows the beginning to the End and He will guide and protect you if you have the Faith to Trust in Him.

Have a great week!
