Sentimental

Lately I have felt very sentimental. I have cried more, laughed more, and looked at John with more love and understanding. Don't get me wrong, sometimes I look at him and I am so mad, for no reason. Got to love hormones, but I know even when I am mad I love him. I don't know why I have been crying more. Commercials have always been able to tear me up, but it's been more active over the last few weeks. The sentimental feeling comes when with family, wanting to be with family, at work, with friends. I have thought more. Really thought. I play the what if game. I'm quiet more..I know me quiet :) God puts things in our lives for reasons, or allows things to happen. So I know there is a reason for my change in demeanor. Maybe there will be a family at work that needs a more emotional nurse. Who knows?



We have had fun this year. We went to the mountains in January where there was a BUNCH of snow. A couple feet to be exact. We always have fun in Boone, hiking, and laying around the house. This time we went to Cone Manor and walked some trails we haven't before. Found one I want to try out sometime that goes by a pasture. People were sledding down the hills in the pasture, it was a beautiful sight.



















I have also been trying to play with my wardrobe more, by putting together outfits I normally wouldn't. Trying to pull pieces out that I have always had trouble matching tops to, or shoes, or skirts. Hopefully I don't look like a fool.







This first one is a black skirt I got at Old Navy a couple years back. The front has about 8 buttons that are kinda hard to pair with certain shirts. I think this outfit worked out well though. I love the shoes John got them for me from Lucky Penny!


The second outfit pairs some very nice Gianni Binni leggings with my absolutely favorite boots from Target. I can almost walk all day in those boots, almost.















































John and I are still looking at house. We really have enough for a decent down payment now, we just need to keep saving for closing costs and all the extras. John has been at his job for almost 2 years now as well so that will help with a loan. We are slowing paying off our cars, I hope to have John's paid off by this time next year. Mine by this time the following year. We will see. It would be nice to only have a mortgage and my student loans as our debt! Goal setting, one day at a time. John has hung his photos and one painting in an art gallery. I think he has a chance to sell something. I know that would boost his confidence a bunch. So keep him in your prayers. Until next time...
