Two more months...

Two more months and I will no longer have to endure three or four hour lectures. I will no longer fight the anxiety that over takes me when studying for a test and the anticiaption of my grade. No longer will I have to neglect my child by putting a movie on instead of playing with her so I can try to complete the 100 pages of reading requried for the next day. Two months - I am done!

God has completely carried us through the past (almost) 3 years of our marriage from financial, school, and familial stress. I am so thankful that I serve a God who is a sustainer, because, I know I could not have done this on my own and I am pretty sure I could not put myself through this again.

The end of nursing schol marks the beginning of our future. Uriah and I talk a lot about future goals. We took a Dave Ramsey financial planning class last fall and it helped us make some decisions on how we want to live our life. Our goal is to be debt free except a small 15 year morgage within the next 3 years. Over all, there will be less pressure on our family and we will be more free to serve the Lord with our time and finances. We have set some goals for this year:
 - get a job
 - finish our fixer upper:
      - kitchen
      - guest bathroom
      - paint the exterior of the house
      - finish putting up the crown molding throughout the house
      - fence in the yard
      - pave the driveway and put a walkway up to the front steps
 - sell our house next spring and pay off all debt

In the meantime, there is so much to do and so little time - May 5th be here before I know it and that will be a good day...

Until next time...
