Life is crazy.
So, mid-November, I came to a breaking point. Financially, I have seriously had ENOUGH. So, Eric and I both anticipated some kind of change coming, I felt it necessary, on top of running the school, to also take on a serving position at a very nice restaurant here in town. Very humbling experience. Although it put me over the edge week after week many times over, I missed the kids and cooking, we learned another good life lesson about the rewards of hard work. Eric had a very, umm... interesting first semester in the College of Ed. ...and it didn't quite end the way we would have wanted it either, but, nonetheless, he is continuing on and as of right now, will graduate December of 2014! I have just put my two weeks into the restaurant and Eric will continue to work there as well now. I am SO happy to be back home again!!!! The school seems to be doing better and better as the years march on. What a first 6 years it has been. Ugh. But, again, what hard work and effort has yielded, has been wonderful to witness first hand. So, we press onward.
Life is crazy.
