We're going to bring in the New Year in with a bang!

After my last moderately depressing post, about the hard times we are going through, this is going to be much more positive. After all it is Christmas time. With Christmas only 9 days away, I am trying too be happy and jolly. We bought our own christmas presents this year to make it easier on us, with the moving, the planning, and the busy times. Since we are going to stay with my mother in-law and be with her on christmas, up until Adalynn and I leave to go see my family for a while, we are having our own Christmas before hand. Getting our own gifts may not be as exciting, as giving gifts to eachother watching eachother unwrap them. Its the way to do it, with being so busy, I have about one week left, to pack up my house apartment, and get everything out. We havent really started, but we dont have a whole lot, that is the upside to all of this. Now we are working hard at making plans, figuring out what is best to do to fix our situation, and keep it fixed so we wont have to move again in a year. Now here pretty soon, we will have our car 100% paid off, woo hoo! Go us! Its very exciting to me, I may not drive it, but its more money in savings. Now, we are going to be working very hard at paying off everything. And on an even brighter note I get to see my family again! I have seen them more this past year then I have in a long time, I am going to miss Matt, and so is Adie, but we are going to visit family and have a good time with them. I am excited too see them, and when we come back, we will have money saved to get a place to live, I just hope that finding a place will be easy. So my goals for the new year is to get on good and stable financial path.  Unfortunate things can happen, but you can change the way things go in life if your attitude is more positive. I do have more goals, for me, however I will get into that in another post.

Hard Times, and positive thinking.

Right now, life is really challanging me. But what would life be if it wasnt challenging me. We moved into this beautiful new apartment a couple months ago. About a week ago, we find out they are raising our rent. And there is nothing we can do about it. And we can no longer afford to live here. BUMMER! so now, me and Adalynn must be seperated from Matt for a while. Me and her are going to visit my family, in pennsylvania for a while, so Matt can save up enough money and find us a new place to live. That was the hard times of it, christmas time, broke and having to move out ASAP. Okay, so the positive part now, the brightside, I get to see my family A LOT sooner than what I was thinking I was. YAY  I've missed them so much. This will give me and Matt some time apart, something I feel every relationship needs now and again. I think it willl be good for us to get some distance. Not that things are bad between us. We are good in fact. But you need surround your life with diversity, and be around all sorts of people. And its very hard for me to get out these days. Not just because I have a 2 year old, who I am trying to potty train, but because I live farther away from my friends and the family I have here. But with this move, after we get a place we will be closer to family. Hopefully this will be the last move for A LONG time. I say that everytime. But seriosusly, I hate moving, its time consuming and too much work. So when hard times come along like now for me. Try to stay positive, life goes by too quickly to be negative all the time.
