Moving Up

I very much enjoy writing this blog whenever I can, or when a weird mood strikes me. However, I have made a decision to make a few changes in order to better help my small little family. If I can make it work and figure it all out, this blog will now have AdSense. BUT WAIT!!! DON'T LEAVE!! It's good for both of us!

I appreciate all of the support I get already from you (the readers). Now I need your support more than ever! Doing this, and building a reader base more than what I have now, will help our income. In return for your help I am providing more of a service. I will be working on a schedule that works for my life to post on here regularly. To start with, I am going to try to do one day a week. My posts will also be changing some. I will be posting things that are helpful such as how I deal with our finances. How I tackle the craziness of life. Things that I am learning in my marriage. How I deal with issues that arise.

This also means being more transparent than ever before. It means being uncomfortable. I still want to share my life as a Christian wife first and foremost. Jesus is weaved into my daily life (nowhere close to perfectly). Jesus is my life. So He will be weaved in the things I share. This means I will also be sharing how I make time in my life for Him (which I am also not perfect at).

All of this also means, that I will be more open about my depression and anxiety. Something that I have just recently started opening up about. I hope that all of this will be helpful to whoever needs it. Life is difficult and it can be made more difficult with depression and anxiety, so I will be posting more about ways I am trying to learn to cope and things I do to sometimes make it through a day...

I will still post crazy random stuff on unscheduled days. I am just now adding this in.

Now here is where you come in. I need you to keep supporting. I need you to support me even more on this blogging journey. I need you to follow, I need you to share as much as you can with whoever you can whenever I post. Share ideas for posts to my email kelcyj9316@outlook.com! Things you want to see me write about. Things that are important to you! Comment. Like. Share!! I appreciate all of you and everything you already do in support.

It's going to be crazy, scary, and imperfect but it's okay. Thank you in advance for your continued support and your help!

BOO!!!

I bet you didn't expect to hear from me:) Long time no see! Oh! I almost forgot, HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know that in just a few short hours it will no longer be Halloween and we will have entered into the month of November but I thought I'd throw it in there anyway.

Any-who, how are you? How have you been since the last time I posted? How about your day today? How did today go, hmm? Were you prepared for trick-or-treaters, or were you one of the many last minute candy shoppers? Don't worry, I went to Walmart at around 6PM and I can personally guarantee you that you were most certainly NOT the only last minute candy shopper.

Tonight was our first Halloween together as Mr. and Mrs. and it was quite boring in a since of we didn't have any little trick-or-treaters. We watched a "scary" movie, ate some snacks and enjoyed the evening together.

Now, let me talk to you just a second about my very hypocritical pet peev. Today I was informed by a friend that the city we live in had put up the snowflakes on the light poles around the city. I just could not believe that they did such an insane thing on the DAY OF Halloween!!! Isn't that just one of the most absurd things you've ever heard? Christmas lights up on the day of Halloween. So I reasoned... Maybe they were just putting them up in preparation for the upcoming months.... no big... calm down... However, as mentioned earlier, Charles and I made a trip to Walmart and I couldn't believe it..... ALL of the snowflakes.... WERE LIT!!!!! =O I know you're probably just as baffled as I am.... it's okay... I'll give you a minute....

Okay, now that we've calmed down.... do you remember me calling this a very hypocritical pet peev (rant)? Well you see, maybe it's the snowflakes.... I really don't know.... I am sitting here, listening to Christmas music as I type!!!!!

EVERYONE JUST CALM DOWN!!!! THERE IS NO NEED TO PANIC!!!! WE ALL KNOW THAT I HAVE A SERIOUS CHRISTMAS PROBLEM!!!!! JUST CHILL!!!! <---- hehe, see what I did there.... chill.... I know, I know.... it wasn't that funny....

So anyway.... at the risk of being hunted down by a mob of people that know and understand we should only have one holiday at a time, the same people of which who really don't like people that are as overly obsessed with Christmas as I am..... (I should seriously get a break this year since it is my first year as a wife.... just saying...)..... Who is looking forward to the Thanksgiving/Christmas festivities? 

Umm... yeah, that would be me right here. You can betcha I'm ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I finally have my own place to decorate, a husband to spend the holidays with and a whole new way to enjoy this season. It will definitely be different, but I know it will be a good different. 

So are there any of you out there reading this, that are celebrating your Thanksgiving/Christmas in a new way? How about a story about your first Thanksgiving/Christmas out own your own in the world? Did you carry on traditions, start new ones, or a little bit of both? I would absolutely love to hear from you all! Shoot me an email or comment below this post:) Looking forward to the stories flooding in =D
