Relapse

Although I know I have a few readers who are dying to know what's going on in our lives (said in a totally sarcastic voice) I'm sorry to report, once again, we are still lame! Haha :]


We did find out Scott will be leaving for work sometime in the next 6ish weeks. He's only been home for 4 months and I don't feel fully ready for him to up and leave again, even longer this time. I'm lucky this time around because he'll only be an hour away, instead of 2 like last year. Trying to focus on the positive! Haha. He recently got a promotion and is now a full time "Hot Plant Foreman". He has busted his butt to get to this point; put in loooong hours, and literal blood, sweat, and tears (usually from me). I'm so lucky he is such a hard worker. He loves his job and his company. I'm so blessed he has such a great, secure job in this struggling economy. I will admit there are times when I HATE this position, he's gone all the time, and works strangely long hours. But I realize he is working for US not just him anymore. He's such a good guy, and I ocunt my blessings daily.


As for me... Well, I'm still working and keeping busy with that. A few weeks ago, I had a strange feeling to get onto the ISU web site and search my major. Without thinking I did, and I stumbled upon something miraculous!! They changed the requirements, for the BETTER!!! ISU decided to remove the 6 classes they added 3 days before I went to offically apply!! I was so happy, and relieved, I cried! So with that being said, I jumped onto the registration page and signed up for summer school. It will be a fully online class, and I couldn't be happier! It made me realize the power of unanswered prayers. The worst of things can happen, for no particular reason, and witout a second thought, the best things can happen.
Pretty much, that sums up what has been going on. We did go to the Jason Aldean concert, so I will have to add a few pictures from that. We had a blast, we LOVE Jason! And Luke Bryan was good too.
Until next time,
Maren
