Soooo

It's been a while. My apologies.  Here are a few updates.  First, I bailed on gluten free. I did it for about 3 weeks and things just got crazy.  I traveled a lot during the month of July and could not figure out how to do gluten free while traveling. I'm about to hit the road for 2 months for work, so I was incredibly overwhelmed.  I plan to try again around January when all of my work travel is over and I would have months to figure it out before I get thrown into a bunch of craziness. We will see.


Secondly, and way more importantly, Eric got a job!!  A full-time job, which happens to start on my Birthday. August 1 will be a great day for many reasons in our household! We are so thankful for this opportunity.  He will be working in the library at Ouachita. If you know my husband, you know this makes him excited as all get out! I am excited for us to finally be on the same schedule. How wonderful will this be! We can ride to work together, eat lunch together, it's going to be great for our relationship, for our finances, and for Eric as he will now feel better about his contributions to our family.  This for sure seals the deal that we will be in Arkadelphia for at least 2 more years.  Now that Eric has a full time job, he will back off on his B.H. Carroll load. He should graduate May 2014 as of now. Then, who knows. But it is nice to finally sort of understand the way our life might be headed. Because we all know the Lord has a crazy way of shacking our plans. But for now, we have a direction. And it is good.

    1. Thanks, Brittney! We are really excited :) And he is seriously ecstatic about working in special collections. And that, that is why he is in grad school and will be for years, and I will never cross that bridge ha.
