Most likely if you are reading this blog we have some sort of relationship, that or you just like to blog surf, either way you probably know that I am engaged. I have been for a few months but obviously I never blogged about it. My fiances name is Michael, he is amazing. Garret love him to death and the feeling is very mutually returned. We do not have a date set, but due to the other major event in my life we will probably set one shortly.
The second major event is that I am done with school (for now), I am officially well not officially until I receive that expensive piece of paper, a college graduate. The reason this will force me to pick a date for the wedding is because as I explained to Michael I could not focus on a wedding, which to be honest stresses me out completely, and finish my student teaching at the same time. So, with my student teaching behind me, successfully I might add, I will now have to start planning a wedding.
It is hard for me to believe that I actually graduated, obviously that has been my goal , but the fact that it is here and I survived is amazing to me. Yes, people graduate all the time, but honestly, I am very proud of myself for doing it while working full time and being a decent single mother. Granted, I had a lot and I do mean a lot of support and help. But it was very overwhelming at times, actually all the time. I wanted to do this for myself, but also to set an example for Garret. That no matter your situation in life you can accomplish whatever you set out to do with hard work! I want Garret to realize that Education is important and that it should be his plan for life. The road was not paved in gold, but rather full of ruts and bumps and sometimes made of dirt. But, it was a road non the less, a road that is there if you choose to take it.
Now I suppose I will have to find a job ( I did not work this semester, well I didn't have a paying job), and now will need to find one. I plan on taking some down time though, Garret and I both need it! I still have to go through all the paperwork for my teaching license, and chances of finding a job mid-year is slim. But, I believe that wherever Garret and I are suppose to be the doors will open. They have thus far, we have survived some very rough years, and we are better because of it. One thing the last 3 years has taught me is how to not "worry" or "stress" about things. Or rather, how to "worry" and "stress" less. Because to be honest I am a worrier and a stresser. But, I have learned to keep it at bay and "trust" that things will work out for the best.
Well I think that pretty much catches things up about me, I have another entire blog entry to write about my little man. I will save that for another day, hopefully soon. I will just say that he started Kindergarten and loves it. But growing up way to fast for this mothers sanity.
These pictures sum up my coffee addiction and saving grace the last 3 years perfectly!
