Long Over Due

Wow, so I just looked back and I knew it had been a while but it's been a year and a half since my last post!!! How did that happen. Especially since I have had A LOT going on since then!! So to start it off...

In June I moved to Savannah! It was a rushed and crazy move. I literally packed up and drove south the day after school was out! Yup, I did that. It was the plan all along because my nephew was going to be born 4 days after school got out and I was not going to miss that for anything...or so I thought. It turned out he had other plans for us. He decided that he didn't want to wait for his scheduled C-section and came 3 weeks early. It did however work out pretty well because he was born on Memorial Day weekend. So even though I wasn't actually there for his birth I was there within a few hours and got to spend the whole weekend. So despite him being born early I still had to leave the day after work because I had a friend driving down with me but flying back and she already had her ticket.

So we made the most of the trip though. We stopped to see a friend of mine in Kentucky and them spend the night in Nashville. It was a blast, we ended up joining in on a few bachelorette parties.

Then we got to spend a few days showing her around Savannah. Despite the fun we did have it was very hard to leave my friends. I struggled leaving my roommate and her girls. They were quite possibly the best roommates a girl could have asked for. I still miss them all dearly and can't wait until I get to see them next.

But I finally got a job at the end of the of the summer and I actually ended up getting two on one day. What a way to go from bored, hating have moved (despite loving being with my family again) and feeling like I was never going to get a job. I am also the children's director for my church and while at moments I question why I am doing two jobs but then I show up on Sunday and I am reminded about how much I love working for the church. I also love teaching but I currently spend almost 2 hours a day commuting so I'm hoping to be a bit closer to home to make it so that I don't waste 2 hours of my day on the road.

Next big change is my newest and most exciting. I bought a house! It's crazy how it all happened so quickly. I messaged my realtor asking to go look at places, two days later we had a few houses to look at. Turned out it was only 2 though. We looked at the first one, it was so small I just couldn't even consider it. Walked into the second one and fell in love. Closet is perfect. It's 3 bed rooms. One is my office, and the second is hopefully going to be for a roommate and then there is my amazing master. I just absolutely love having my own house and I still live really close to my mom and dad and sister and brother. I have friends who live right down the street. I just love where I'm at in life in general.

So big changes in the last year and a half. Hopefully I'll not wait another year and a half before I update again.
