Meteor Shower!
>> Monday, December 14, 2009
Hey guys!
I watched the Geminids meteor shower tonight! I saw ten shooting stars, so naturally I made ten wishes! I wished for the same thing every time, so maybe my wish will come true sooner? I believe the next one is the Quadrantids meteor shower. That happens on January 3 (a little after midnight) til 4am-ish on the 4th. Mel, you get to see it! Yay!
It's only 11 more days til Christmas, 8 more days until Lauren visits from Port Angeles, WA and a week before Mel visits from Moranbah! It's going to be a great holiday season! I've finished all my shopping, and all I need to do now is finish up the wrapping! I found out that Joe's sister, Jen won't be coming home for Christmas. I was kinda sad because I haven't seen her since she left for Colorado early last month! I think Joe and I will go visit Jen and her husband, Brandon in the springtime though! That will be a nice trip!
Onto bigger things: I'm thinking about possibly looking for government/other jobs outside of Texas. I know it's a huge leap of faith, but I figure why not? We have a family friend who has offered to help me apply for some government jobs. He said you have to word so many things on your application a certain way to even get considered for an interview. I'll take whatever help I can get! I talked to Joe about it, and he didn't seem all too happy about it. He pretty much has a job lined up once he's done with school next year. However, this job is only located in Irving, TX and once he's at that job he needs to stay for a while. I love Joe very much, but let's be honest. I would be foolish to bank on us getting married before I turn 23 next September and getting on his benefits. As of right now, I have to look out for me. If this means an opportunity in Colorado, New Mexico or Washington, then so be it! All I can do at this point is pray and let the good Lord lead me down the right path. I need your prayers also, friends. This kind of decision is HUGE and I'm not sure how I'm going to do it!
What else is going on? Oh! This week is the last week of school before the kiddos are out for Christmas break! Clayton has the holiday centers opened, but that's only on the 21-23rd, then it's open again on the 28-31. Yeah, I might have to work til 6:30 on New Year's Eve, but I need the money! I can't complain!
That's all I have for now! I'll update again soon!
Later Days!

I think it's really brave that you're thinking outside the box and looking at all your options. I think y'all could def withstand a long-distance relationship for a while if you needed to. When you're open to moving anywhere for a job, the possibilities seem endless!
Oh! And I can't remember if I told you, but I was talking to my sister and she said Starbucks has one of the absolute best benefits packages around for full-time employees! Not ideal, but it could be a good patch while you apply for other jobs?
Working til 6:30 on NYE isn't so bad. Nothing good happens until Midnight anyways! lol
