So I keep wanting to write a new blog, but don't have a lot to tell. I've been in a very crabby and crappy mood lately. I wish things would just look up for me, but I can't seem to get that to happen.
I did go out Friday morning and meet a few more ladies around here. I'm so proud of myself for getting out and doing things like that. I feel it's pointless some days, but other days it's what gets me through the days that I am here.
I wish I knew how to talk to God better than I do. I need His help more than anything right now. I wish I could always remember, He's who I should run to FIRST! Why do I always put Him farther down on the list?
I've finally set up a date for Brayden's birthday party and I'm super excited about it. I'm ready to get home and see my family. Especially my mom. This is the longest I've ever gone in my life without seeing her. I know it's only been two and half months. But it's tough. This Army life is going to kill me, one way or another.
Okay...I've wrote about all I can without getting into things, I feel I shouldn't. Sorry this one isn't all that great, and kind of sappy.

Sunday Night
Okay...so I guess I am not as good at this as I wanted to be. :)
We had a pretty great weekend though. Friday we got to go to Cael's birthday party and Brayden had a blast! We then went to McDonald's and had dinner together! Saturday and Sunday were both very beautiful days. Saturday I got my butt out in our storage/shed and finally got rid of all the boxes and reorganized everything. I was so proud of myself for getting out there and doing it. I also sent 5 boxes to Good Will that evening and I felt great about that!
Today..Brayden and I got up for church, to find out Kourtni and Brandon weren't going to make it, so I thought I'd try a new church out. Well I thought I had remembered hearing about one on Tiny Town, so I drove all the way down it, to find out I didn't really see anything, so I took another road to get back to the church I went to before to realize...I ended back up where I started. OOPS! So I was already late for OGBC and knew the church by my house started later, so I tried it out. I didn't like it. The moment I walked in, I didn't feel welcomed. I went to take Brayden to the nursery and the guy acted like we didn't just walk in...umm HELLO!? But I just didn't like the service, or the worship...but you will never know till you go. I honestly still don't think I've found 'MY' church here. I didn't think it'd be this tough. This evening we went to Kati's house to play a little RockBand for an hour or so. It's so cool to have met someone who moved walking distance from me! I see lots of hangin out at each other's houses in the near future.
Tonight was cute, Brayden wanted to take a shower with Daddy(not usual) and when they got out, Brayden said..Mommy hold on, I gotta go shave with Daddy. It was precious! So they shaved together!

A new year, a new beginning.
Sooo..I figured I would start blogs, that way my family who doesn't have facebook, can keep up with me if they wanted!
Life in Tennessee so far as actually been going rather well. I've made quite a few friends here, and have stepped out of my comfort zone a lot. But in the process of doing so, I've made friends and becoming a happier person.
Before I moved here, I would have NEVER met a person for lunch that I didn't know, or invite people over to my house to meet and do their hair, but hey-I'm doing it and enjoying it.
Life here has made our marriage simpler. We listen to each other more, and respect each other more. I had a feeling things would become better here, and so I gave it a lot more effort when we moved here and it's great! We're both a lot happier together as a couple. Sure things aren't perfect, and we're working on it! :)
I think I MAY have found a church to attend on a weekly basis. I'm going to try it a few more times just to make sure! I am ready to make things right with God and to change my life for the better! Not only for myself, but for Brayden. He deserves to know the right path, and to know who God is. So we're going to take the journey together. This isn't the easiest thing for me to do. To jump out there, to say I've been doing wrong, to move forward and let all my past/sins go. But it'll definitely be worth it in the end! :)
I'm very thankful to have met the few friends I have already. Especially Kourtni, she gets me. She understands a lot and she's a great listener and friend. Crazy how we met and how it all worked out, but that was just God working His magic...I know it! :) We needed each other while we're here in Clarksville and He made that happen!
I do have my rough days, days I dislike being here, but they aren't as often as the days I'm content and happy. I miss my mother a lot. I miss her more than anyone and it's tough...but ya gotta do what you gotta do! I know one day, we'll move back to Texas and be able to be close to her again, so that's reassuring. But also moving here...I've come to see who my true, real friends are. Is it upsetting? Not as much as I thought it would be. Sometimes it's hard to know I really don't have a lot of friends left from when I did a few years ago, but that's apart of growing up and moving on...so it's okay. One person I'm not ready to let go of yet, but don't wanna say names, so I just hope that things work out.
But I guess that's enough for now, and I am going to try to write on a daily basis to keep things up! It'll be nice for myself. I know tonight's post was more of babbling, but the rest won't be like this!
