Having a hard time.

Sigh....where to start?? I'll just say this. When will the trials and struggles end? I know the answer to that but I'm frustrated. The last few months have been really hard. I had to get a new job that pays ALOT less then the other one. We have been in our ward for 8 months and just got home teachers and we still feel new. Why do people act like we're invisible? We are always smiling and as far as I know look friendly. Our lease is up in April and unless something drastically changes I have no idea how we are going to move of even be able to stay here because our rent will go up. Rob was supposed to start the new hire class for AMR February 8Th but they called and said they're not having a Feb. class now. Great. We we're so excited for that and needed that. Ah well...maybe February will be better then the last few months were...

Salty....

Enough said.

I've done it again....

Yes those are my gummy vitamins in the fridge. Why in the fridge you wonder? Because I never pay attention to what I'm doing. Funny thing is, I probably did this a couple of days ago but neither one of us noticed. It could have been worse though. I've put the peanut butter in the fridge, a box of cereal and my favorite, the hairspray. Wonder what it will be next....

EMT or Police officer......

My wonderful husband is the most determined man I have ever known. He is so driven. His dream is to be a police officer and he is getting closer and closer to that dream. His detective called last week to set up Rob's polygraph and physc test. It's an all day thing. After that he'll meet with a phychiatrist just to make absolute sure that he isn't crazy :) This is pretty much the last step in the testing process. If all goes well, and my husband isn't crazy the next step is hiring him. He goes in for the psycho testing on Thursday the 21st. Wish him luck! Rob also just had an interview with AMR and got his state test score back. 85%! My husband is officially WA state EMT certified!! He took the physical test for AMR today and passed that too! It's looking like both the police and AMR will be looking to hire him here in the next couple of months! I'm so proud of him for working hard to achieve his dreams!

That is all for now, the dove chocolate in the kitchen is calling for me...

Dental Anxiety....

Ok so I have horrible teeth. Blame it on bad enamel, family with bad teeth or just a horrible lack of flossing my whole life. Anyway, just before thanksgiving I had a back molar break. Just a tiny bit. We went down to Phoenix to spend Thanksgiving with Rob's family and had a blast except for, that's when the pain started. I managed it with Tylenol and not chewing on that side. That seemed to help. Well once we got home, the pain just got worse and worse and worse. I was having to take 4 rapid release Tylenol every 4 hours. It was the only thing that would take the pain somewhat away. (ya my liver is probably hating me now) Long story short, after about a month of HORRIBLE pain, night with no sleep, meltdowns, and lots of Tylenol we we're able to get approves for "Care Credit." It's like a dental credit card. Being a newly married couple without dental insurance it was our only option. My amazing mother was able to find a dentist that would see me that day. After two hours in the chair, an infection so bad that I couldn't get all the way numb and 3 removed nerves, I am very happy to say that I am PAIN FREE!!!!!! YAY!!!!!
