I am a strong believer that being optimistic is very important in life. I mean, why not look at events or conditions with a positive view? Lately I have had a few BIG things going on in my life, both which I have struggled with being optimistic. One of the is the house hunt. I have been so discouraged after looking at house after house and not finding anything...however I currently have a beautiful home we are happy at so there is no rush. I keep trying to tell myself this, and that the right house will come along in time. Tonight we are going to look at a few more..and I am feeling very optimistic and excitied! The other one is my job....this one has been more of a struggle to stay positive about. Don't get me wrong, I am more than thankful that I have a job, and I do even enjoy it most days..however I find myself thinking about my previous job which was working with elementary aged children. I worked at the school for 6 years while I was in college. Not that I have a job in the corporate world, I question whether this is the right path for me. My question for you is...what do I do? I usually feel like I have things in order and figured out, but right now im feeling the complete opposite! Any advice would be great!! I hope you all have a great day! Jamie Leigh
Happy Monday everyone! I am so happy to say I am feeling optimistic about this week...Usually Mondays are such a drag for me, but I think this weekend was exactly what I needed.
I spent Friday night with my mom and little sister! Sean had to work late, so we had a ladies night.

We ordered pizza and cuddled in and watched some TV. We couldn't stop talking about decorating ideas for the house we are praying becomes ours! Good news, it was taken off the website today, the seller liked our offer...now we just wait on the bank for however long they take! We are staying optimistic...this house is just so perfect for us, already feels like home. However, if it doesn't work out for some reason, it wasn't part of God's plan right?
I was in for a surprise Saturday when I woke up to SNOW! It really got me excited for the holidays...it was so beautiful out, AND even better, Sean didn't have to work because of the weather! We literally laid around all day watching movies with my mom and sister, drinking coffee, and enjoying each others company. We made one outing to Target for some stuff. I bought the best frame ever...it has room for 4 pictures and says "When counting my blessings, I count you twice." I LOVED it! It will be perfect to showcase our wonderful engagement pictures.
Sunday we spent the whole morning/afternoon at church. We had orientation for becoming members. This upcoming Sunday we will go before the congregation and be welcomed as members finally! We are so excited to become members, and really get involved in the church. It is such a great community!
I hope everyone has a wonderful Monday! If you are feeling down, and not ready to face this week, be optimistic!
