So you probably aren't aware, our little family has had a serious run of bad luck! We drained our savings after Rhapsody was born, with family coming to town and having to pay for a move. Then our landlords (who made us move, by the way, I would never have left that house!) have decided they want to keep our entire deposit! They took so long to decide, now we can't use the company set in place to investigate false claims. Then a little over a week ago my car died, and I mean super dead (seriously, i wouldn't touch that thing with thirty nine and a half foot pole). And now yesterday our computer died too!! I know, craziness!
However, I am not writing this post for pity (no, really, I'm not!). I want to share that even with all of this "bad" stuff, Richard and my relationship has never been better or stronger! We are skipping Christmas, and normally that would have me seriously in the dumps (who doesn't like presents!) but this year I am finding that I am more than happy to simply enjoy the season and day with my adorable family and our amazing friends (more like family at this point). We are saving our money, paying off our bills, and selling my husbands baby (his car! Where did your mind go?) to buy a new family car before moving to Turkey. We have a plan and we are moving forward. More as one now than at any other time in our marriage. I lay full blame on God. Even with all of these troubles, which would normally have us in knots trying to fix, we have remained with a sense of calm. I think the joy that our daughter brings us has also helped to keep our minds on the bright side of life (if you just sang the song in your head then you, my sir or madam, are awesome.)
With all of THAT said, I will try and keep the blog going but until we can save enough moola to buy a new laptop I will be posting on my phone! So please excuse any weird spelling/grammar mistakes (autocorrect, ya know!) I will attempt to proofread, reread, and triple check...
Welcome to my version of life.
