Today's Journey: Keeping up the Fight

Wow, it has been a while since I have posted but I felt the urge today. It is the urge to stand up and fight again. My other half and I, well we are still going strong. Still struggling, but still fighting. I am tired, worn down, and sometimes I feel broken. But I am still willing to fight. That has to be the first step to success- never give up the fight. Since the last time I posted we have moved, my boss passed away, I have a new boss, we are still having financial difficulties, and our families are driving us crazy- but we are still fighting. I have taken up "pinning" off of Pinterest. OMG I am addicted, and there are so many things that I want to try. Some of them I already have, and others I will. It is exciting to be able to try new things, and exciting to let my crafty side show. I just love it. It has been nice, since we are BROKE, to be able to stay home and come up with crafty, creative ways to entertain ourselves. And the kids seem to enjoy it! I am still going to school and working full time. The kids and the homework still keep me VERY busy. But I have decided that I need to make goals. When I say that I mean like date specific, hard core goals. Like losing weight. How much and by what date? Then with school- I am going to finish my masters degree in about a year and a half- then what? What kind of job do I want? Am I going to continue on in school? Am I really going to go to law school? These are all things that I need to make decisions on. Then my other half and I keep talking about moving, out of state, going somewhere new. But where, and how do you decide where? Lastly, we have been talking off and on about buying a house. We keep saying that our main goal is to buy a house and be somewhere steady and stable by the time our son starts school. Can we even do that, is it possible? I am not sure...... Everyday I have to fight back the overwhelming feeling to give up, the feeling of defeat, the feeling that things will never get better....but I keep fighting!
