the fact that kevin can’t find a job has really put a strain on our marriage. don’t worry, we are not meeting with any marriage counselors or planning to divorce. honestly, we are more in love today than we were the day we married. it’s true that what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. we have just been clinging to each other during this difficult time, thankful that we both still have each other. kevin has put out so much energy towards applying for various jobs throughout oregon. since nothing has stemmed from his efforts, we’ve decided to extend our reach into neighboring states. we are now setting our sights on:
- sacramento, california
- irvine, california
- san luis obispo, california
- santa barbara, california
- tucson, arizona
- las vegas, nevada
the difficult part of extending our search is knowing that if something does work out (and we’re praying it does), we’ll have to say goodbye to family and friends in oregon. i’d have to leave a job that i really like. we’d have to leave our young nieces behind and would miss watching them grow up. above everything…although it would be difficult, it would be a step in the right direction for our careers and our marriage. we’ve realized that, since i can do office work wherever we are located, it’s most important that kevin finds a job in his field to gain the necessary experience to keep moving up the ladder. if possible, i’d love to be able to get my invitation design up and going while kevin works. right now we’re on the ground staring up, hoping that someone is willing to help us onto that first step. maybe moving is what we need to start moving forward again? it’s scary to think about, but having each other makes it a little more manageable.
come to sacramento!!!!!!
