A year ago today

  A year ago today I was having a really bad day.  I know this because my memories on Facebook popped up to remind me.  Thanks facebook.  But no, seriously I'm glad they did.  Although life isn't exactly where we want it right now, it's not bad either.   And it reminded me that things are only temporary, and bad days will pass and you will have more good ones.  Life goes on.  But i wanna tell you a little bit about a year ago today.

  December 1st 2017 was one of the SCARIEST days of my life.  My cousin Sydney and I were sitting in my sun room doing our hair and make-up,  chatting it up, when my dogs came up to the door (they were outside going potty) and Sydney noticed kujo was shaking really bad, so I went to check on Karma and she was way worse.  She couldn't even stand up! She kept twitching and falling down like she was having a seizure, couldn't keep her eyes open.  Kujo was bad too, but karma was way worse.  Jared pulled in, and we RUSHED them to mount orab  vets office.  Luckily I use to volunteer there and they took them because they were closing down for the night.   They put them on IVS for the night, and we went home.  Scared to death that they were going to die, and we would have to go on without them. The thought brought me to tears.  We were so worried,  and so we prayed.

  That same night after we get home I got a text from my boss to listen to my voicemail.   The voicemail was telling me that I was being terminated.  Thats it.  No explanation, nothing.   So very unprofessional.  I called to ask her why,  and she gave me a bunch of "BS" reasons of to why i wasn't a good fit.  None of which were true, except one.  I didn't connect with the other girls.  The other girls who spent nap time gossiping about the other teachers.   No I didn't connect with them, I don't enjoy putting other people down.  I was really upset that night and honestly, down right angry.  

  The next day we went to pick up our puppies.   They were doing better.  Very sleepy but not ill.  Thank God.  (The reason they were sick is because they were poisoned)

   Today they are two happy and healthy pups.  ❤
And i have a job interview on Monday; not sure how it will go, but hopefully well.  I'm enrolled in college to become a nurse, we are buying our own house.  Life is good. 

  So next time you are having a day to where the world feels like it might end.  You are ready to shut down,  and just give up.  You can't handle another second! Please don't do anything drastic.   Will it matter In a year? Could things change a million times for the better? You won't know if you don't give yourself a chance.

Xoxo, megs.

To my husband on his 22nd birthday

Dear Jared, Happy birthday handsome! You're 22.  I can't express how blessed I am to have spent 6 birthdays with you (including this one) , and so many more to come.   I just want to let you know that i am incredibly proud of the man you've always been, and the even better man you've grown to be.  I am so proud of you for everything you've accomplished,  and I am SO thankful for every thing you do for us.  You work your butt off so that we can have the things that we have, pay our bills, and enjoy life.  I know sometimes I may take that for granted, and I'm sorry i know i don't say thank you enough.  I love you more than words can express, and I am SO blessed to be your wife. You are the most amazing, handsome, kind man I have ever met.  You can make anyone smile, and you always brighten up rooms with yours.  You are strong, hard-working, and humble.  You are funny, and sweet.  I couldn't have asked for a better man to spend...

A letter to the girl I was 5 years ago

  Sometimes it doesn't feel like it's been 5 years.  15 doesn't seem that far off.   But that's how life is.... time passes us by,  things change, and life goes on.  15 was a crazy year, huh? There Was bad,  and there was good.   I can still remember that year like it was yesterday.  I'm sure I'll never forget it, as that year was a very impactful year for me.  I turned 15 on January 28th 2013.  The beginning of that year was pretty normal for me.  I was a freshman at Eastern High School, Skinny,  Pretty,  Carefree, Lots of friends,  but tender hearted and naive.   I went to parties frequently (that my parents had no idea about) and I was pretty much your typical average teenage  girl.  Until my best friend since middle school betrayed me and all of my secrets.  I was embarrassed, I was alone, and suicidal.   I ended up enrolling in Ecot for homeschooling because I was j...

My hopes for 2019

  Once again another year has come and gone.   2018 was kind of a challenging year.   We moved out of our home and back in with my parents ( due to us buying a home that we are still in the process of completely remodeling ) but we are getting closer and closer to being back in our own house.  It was another year of trying for baby #1 with no success at all.  It was also the first year since we have graduated that we didn't get to take our yearly vacation.  2018 was kinda tough, but i truely believe 2019 will be a year to remember.  My hopes for 2019! And things I'm looking forward too.  - I start college January 14th! -  My 21st birthday is on January 28th! Finally legal to drink in public, without the hubby having to buy them for me.  💋 - Moving into our house! Only a little left to do.  I can't wait to have our house done and have all of our own things back.   I'm kinda decorating as we get each ro...
