Yes, the Christmas decor is still up...

Okay, so someone once said that if you focus on the good things in your life (no matter how great or small), pretty soon you're mood will improve and so will your life. So here's hoping. The last two months have been, well, let's just say that a four-letter word won't cover it. Yes, our holiday decorations are still up, but at least the holidays are over. Daisy is finally getting over her "toddler" illnesses and is definitely a two-year-old. I am able to work with understanding and supportive people that have helped me pick up extra shifts and make extra kits here and there. Jeff and I both have great families helping us financially and making sure we stay fed and sane. Jeff is also so super-qualified in what he does, that many interviews end with, "We can't pay you what you're worth, you're too qualified for this job." Which, too me, means that he is too smart and too creative for his own good and the right job will come. Some company out there is looking for him, and he will find it soon enough. I've also been blessed with a husband that is determined and hard-working and will do whatever it takes to provide for his family. And last, but not least, we have been blessed with a beautiful daughter who can take sad moments and turn them into laughter. Who can wake us up in the morning with a smile on her face and put a smile on ours. What did we ever do without her? We are constantly reminding eachother how lucky and blessed we are and that, this too, shall pass. Hopefully, one day, we will be able to look back on this time and see that it was necessary to teach us something. And, hopefully, that day will be sooner rather than later.
