Sorry, it's been too long!

i can't believe almost six months have gone by since I last wrote on here!  My computer died, and getting the time anymore is close to impossible!  So much has happened since the last post, I will try to catch anyone who reads this up on our lives!
     We moved into our own place on July 1st, 2011.  It is bigger than our place was in Colorado, and it reminds me a lot of Woodland Park.  it's quiet, about twenty minutes from a larger town, but we can go shopping here in town still.  The job that I was working towards didn't work out, because of many reasons, but I think it was for the best, even as weird as that may sound.  I put in an application at McDonald's mainly because it was so close, and got a job right away.  And with the experience I have with management inside the company, I am working on my management classes, and will be a manager by the time the middle of November comes around!  I am very proud of myself, as I'm working really hard to achieve some type of goal, even if it is in a fast food restaurant lol! 
     Our cars have broken down, and and all of that stuff has been really hard, but we're pulling through it seems.  We are starting to get involved in a church.  And even though some people might not agree with it, I want everyone to remember that we would not do anything that would put our children in danger, EVER!!!  If it is going to better our health, well-being, and spiritual health, then why wouldn't we do this?  I am not doing this to be judged, or ridiculed into thinking what I'm doing is wrong.  What some other people think, I don't agree with, but that doesn't give me the right the belittle that person, does it?  So don't treat us like that!  And with this change, today, I have quit smoking, and one of the suggestions is to start up a new hobby, and this is time consuming, and worth every minute, so i thought I would take the time while Autumn was down for her nap, and while I was pacing the floors for a cigarette, to use my nervousness on the computer to clue everyone in lol!  I know I can do it this time around, because I am determined and I want it for totally different reasons.  I don't want my children to see me get sick because of smoking.  I don't want to miss out on graduations, weddings, and births of grandbabies because I chose to keep smoking.  I don't want to miss anything, and I won't, and this is how I am going to do that!  Hopefully soon, Brian is just as ready as me!  I know he can do it, too! 
     Well, anyway, hopefully I'll be on here at some point tomorrow!  I have to work later today, and that will be my test for the day.  There's a gas station right across the street!  Please pray for our family and our continued renewed faith in the Lord.  He is wonderful!
