Changes


But first, an honor. We won over on Carly's blog! Thanks to all of you who voted. I know some of my students were voting on every computer they could get their hands on - it worked! I got this awesome mousepad, which will be gracing my desk at school in the near future. I have to remember to take it to school next week so the kids can see it - they keep asking me about it.

And now. My life has been turned on it's side, flipped down a hill, and twisted around some more in the past two weeks. I haven't shared, because I wasn't ready to share with the world in such a public forum just yet. But, with the good comes the bad, so it is time to suck it up and share.

I am a newly single girl. There were a lot of things that contributed to this, but I don't believe in airing my dirty laundry for all of the public to see. I'll be making changes around the blog (obviously, it won't be about Christy and David anymore, just Christy) but I want to keep it. Although I'm not the best at posting on a super regular basis, I am hoping that changes in the very near future. I'll be changing pictures, layouts, etc as soon as I find pictures that I like! I will be leaving all of the planning posts with a single tag - planning - in case they could help anyone else. Hopefully that change will happen in the next few days.

But, with the bad, comes the good! I'm buying a house! I found this adorable house that is perfectly sized for me and my dog. It is 10-15 minutes closer to the school where I work. It's still on my mom's way home from school, so she can stop and let my dog out on her way home when I have to stay at school late. We have an inspection on Monday, so hopefully that will work well. I will be taking lots of pictures, so I will share then!

I'm sitting here speechless... Or typeless? I'm sorry to hear that there's been such a drastic change, but I'm glad to hear that it comes with something as exciting as the new house for you! I'll be praying for you!

Life does always come at you fast. It is unfortunate that this has happened..but you are still a princess and you will even be a queen soon with purchase of your own house. Everything happens for a reason..even if they do suck. I hope you have support around you to help with this time of change. I look forward to hearing about your new life as a single woman.

Wow, what a bittersweet post. I'm so sorry to hear that you are going through this. But you have such grace and lightness about everything, so I know you'll weather this with aplomb.
