So, Matt and I have faced unemployment for the last three months. Hard, challenging and differently stressful, also a trail that we were not prepared for. But we are on the last leg now, (hopefully!) Matt got a call today, from his union hall wanting him for a job on Monday...however, we were not home and they needed someone right then! But we called back and found out that he is first on the list for the next job! Yay! They told him he should have a job by next week! We are so happy and thankful!
Honestly, I'm glad we went through this. I rather go thru it now and find out what to expect and prepare for the future, so when we start to expand our family, we can try to be as prepared as we can possibly be. I'm so grateful to all our friends and family for standing by us and praying for us, thank you! You guys are so awesome! Honestly, I don't know what I would do with out some of you to lean on! I hope I can return the favor to you guys someday.
As for the job market with me...no luck. I've been applying and will keep will, obviously but I have been playing phone tag with a lady at My Father's House, a family shelter. They need volunteers and I think it will rewarding in so many ways. Plus gives me something to do so I don't go crazy!
I made a new goal. I would like to lose 30 pounds by the new year. I've never been so motivated and honestly I've pushed myself so much in this that I don't even need Matt encouraging me. I go to the gym by myself without him telling me too! Yay for me! I feel so good and just better. I look forward to seeing the results of the goal. And I'm excited to make plans for the future goals. Baby steps people, baby steps!
I got a new haircut, and I love it! A short bob, so cute! Softball season has started and Matt is one of the coaches along with a friend of ours. I enjoying watching him play and rooting for his team! Let me know if anyone would like to go to one of the games.
Most of you know that we got a new phone number since cell phones have now become a luxury, lol. And that we got a kitty cat, her name is Penelope and she is one feisty little cat! She loves to cuddle and enjoys eating!
Well, thank you for reading and keeping up on us, this is my first blog (although it is so easy!) and I will post again when we know more about this whole job thing!
All our love,
Matt and Tiffany
