Well, Sunday Jason and I celebrated our 1 year anniversary, and were thinking back at how much has happened in our 1 year of marriage! We got married September 21, 2007, we moved to Nashville in March, he started his job April 1, I started my new job April 7, and we bought a house in August.... so we got married, we moved, we started new jobs and we bought a new home, 4 of the 5 major stressors in life! And we survived them all! Its definitely been a ride the only other stressor in life is adding a baby to the mix... and unfortunately for us we aren't prego yet!
We've been staying in our home since Sunday and its amazing, I can definitely say it feels like home, we love it!
Yesterday hmmmm......
My company will pay its employees to go to a "community day" where you can pick a non-profit organization to do community service for, you get paid to go... pretty amazing, I've never in my life worked for a company who is all about community service. I've done several community service things, and fund raising type deals, but not as much as I would have liked. Now.... I can go and volunteer anytime I want and get paid to do it, if I miss work because of it.... Anyway, I went to the Sexual Assault Center of Nashville, and wow what a blessing! All that I can remember was having call centers about 10 years ago, but this is a building where anyone can go, get free therapy for as long as they need! It was heart wrenching in that 70% of their clients are children under the age of 12! After yesterday, I completed training and education and now I am an ambassador for the center its exciting, this is the type of work I have always wanted to do and to be able to do it, makes me feel great! We will be having an Open House, (they just moved into this great building) Nov. 14th, so I will be there giving tours of the new building to clients, there is going to be a huge 5k walk in March that I am way excited about and have already recruited half of my floor at work to go...
Not much else has been going on, I'm counting down the days when I can go see my Niece and my Nephew, I absolutely miss them so bad! 6 months without seeing them has been super hard, the last time I got to see my lil man he was 3 months old still on baby formula, and now he's walking all over the place, eating table food and has teeth!! It goes by way to fast, there are days I wish I could twitch my nose and have them in my arms in a second! Not long only 20 more days to go!!!
