It's been awhile...

So it's been quite awhile since I've posted and I am so sorry! Things here have been hectic to say the least but I am so happy to be busy.

I finally have all of the paperwork complete and the green light to start subbing here in Georgia and I am ecstatic! I can't wait to get back into the classroom and bring some money in for our family. It's been weird staying at home everyday and not contributing financially to our family and I am so happy to be able to do that again. I am hoping to be able to substitute a few times a week so I can still do things around the house and complete some of the craft projects I've started.

I've been thinking lately how cool it would be to sell some of the things I make at the gift shop on Fort Benning or through an Etsy page. I have such a fun time creating things and would love to be able to share that with other people. I especially want to make a bunch of fun baby things I've found patterns for but don't have any babies to give them to! For the time being I'm just researching the possibilities and making things when I have time to. I also want to be more motivated to complete more projects and have things to show from the time I spend at home while David is at work. We will see what comes of this!

David is about to leave for the gauntlet - a ten day culmination field exercise - and, while I am not excited about him being gone and out of touch for so long, I am excited for him to be finished with armor BOLC. He's been in this school since November and I know he is so ready to be done. I am trying to fill my calendar with activities and crafts to complete while he is gone! It is definitely going to stink to not be able to talk to him for so long but it will be a good practice for the much longer time apart in ranger school and deployment one day. I'm just trying to stay positive and know that the hug and kiss that come when he gets home is the best feeling in the world :)
