Just once I would like to have a post to put on here that wasn't depressing...I think it would be nice to have at least one a month that wasn't a downer...
We sent in resumes to so many...but they chose another and Pffffttt the jobs were gone...

Happy Days are here again...

Ok, we have made it through 2010!!! Yahoo! I think that is a great feat since Jeff lost his job and I couldn't work for a few reasons. Mom got worse and worse, Marmalade passed away and Jeff and I got sick numerous times. We went for almost 11 months without work...struggled in other ways, as well. Jeff and I never realized how strong and determined we were/are. If it hadn't been for the other one we would have never made it! So...GOODBYE 2010, thanks for the good and keep the awful. We are looking up for 2011! We have a completely new situation here. A cute cute house/apartment. A girl kitty who is doing so much better the last two months. She is doing well with growing her hair back. It was very stressful for her to lose her brother and move from her home all in a few short weeks. She is much better now. We LOVE her and spoil her even more, if that can be possible. Jeff is looking for his dream job, in the meantime, he is working for temp services here in Virginia. We are nearly settled in...still need some book shelves for our books. I have a bear room!!!!!!! I have never had all of my bears out since we left the house north of Corunna. I am soooo excited and so are they. I have some on the little bed in the bedroom. Penelope comes in this room and jumps on the bed and lays down with all of the bears. It is ADORABLE!! I have tried to take a picture but when I move so does she! haha.
We could use a little more storage space, but the place is looking good. We lived here for almost two months without any living room furniture. It was sad times! We found a love seat and sofa on craigslist and didn't have to spend much. We were sooooo excited. We now can sit in our living room on something comfortable. We had one lawn chair and 4 straight back chairs to sit on before...ugh. SOOOO wonderful being people again...
I am hoping to start working at home this month...since it is January 1 today! I need to have Excel...and I don't have it yet...ugh...any ideas?
Happy New Year to all who read this. We do hope your 2011 is the best year yet for all of you. We are gonna try hard to help it be ours.
