new locations

i know, i know, i know. i should have wrote this blog a week ago.
but, here it is. 
beggars can't be choosers, right?

some of my excuses for my lack of blogging:
- unpacking
- applying for jobs
- reconnecting with friends 
- being sick

::unpacking/apartment::
we really enjoy our apartment! everything is unpacked now it's a matter of finding the right spot for it all. our apartment is bigger than our last but has less storage space. [which has become a fun challenge for me!] currently our dining area has a wall covered with boxes which has made a bit of an eye sore. our plan is hide the box wall with curtains as a means for storage. a majority of these boxes contain classroom items so if i find a job, this will solve some of our storage problems ;)

/job hunt\
speaking of the job process, we daily are looking and applying for careers. so far, i have applied as a teacher and substitute for 3, going on 4, school districts. cody has been making connections, looking at companies are in the area, and applying for jobs. we also have started applying for part time jobs while we look for the real ones. 

{friends}
it has been so great to reconnect with friends that live in the area! we have been so so grateful for them helping us unload the u-haul, informing us of what we need to know about the area, and simply just hanging out with us. it has made the move here so much easier and welcoming. 

|sickness|
right when we moved, an infection developed on my leg from an ingrown hair. we believe it's probably from the lake when we went to visit cody's family in branson. so our first day was spent at an urgent care getting the medicine i needed to heal it. 5 days into the antibiotic, i started getting a small fever and feeling achy. turns out i was on the wrong antibiotic and had to start a new one. thankfully, i am feeling much better now. 

[prayer requests]
- we would find jobs? specifically, career jobs?
- peace and wisdom during this time of job seeking
- we would trust in the Lord and seek HIM first
