New Year...great time to start my blog :)

I've decided that I should start my blog now. I've had it for quite a while and just didn't know where to begin!
A lot is going on in my life. I'm very busy working fulltime at Atlas Credit. This is the start of my third year there and I really love my job! They are currently paying for my education and I'm going to school part time at TJC. This semester I'm going to take 9 hours...whew! I'm taking Accounting 2, Business and Payroll Tax Accounting, and also Principles of Management. School has been very enjoyable the past few semesters. Its hard when you work fulltime to have time for studying and everything...at times it feels like theres no time for a social life OR sleep. Haha but to see A's and B's at the end, it makes it worth it! I'm so thankful that I have this opportunity to finish my degree.

My family is living in Waco now. My Dad is working as a manager at the HOTGOG (Heart of Texas Council of Governments) and he loves his job. They are really good to him there and hes great at what he does. Mom is still teaching. She recently had surgery in November ...so she just went back to work this past week after christmas break. It has been hard on her because its a stressful job emotionally and her body is still tired physically from the surgery. The school systems just don't do what they are supposed to anymore and dicipline is a big issue. You're basically not allowed to do anything when students misbehave...we're praying that she finds something new this summer when her contract is up.

Tomorrow my sister is moving in with me. I'm REALLY excited about this because since she has been engaged to Aaron, our relationship has been a bit rocky. I have my reasons that I don't really think they should get married right away...and now the wedding has been postponed because he is in the army and will be going to Afghanastan for a year or more in March. Please pray for his safety and for my sister...I know that it will be hard on her to know hes over there in harms way...
I'm hoping that having her here with me for a few months will give us time to mend our friendship because its something I never want to lose! I look forward to sharing my home with her and going to TJC together and church etc. Shes really special to me and we're gonna have a blast!
Well, thats about all right now. I will do my best to keep this updated. Hope yall enjoy!
