Happy Holidays

So it's the Holiday Season, and I (Jess) just have not been 'feeling' it. I wasn't sure if it was because Dave isn't here much because of work or because I'm not decorating for the holidays. Well today I bit the bullet talked to Dave about buying a small tree and just a few minimal decorations. So I did, and it's been nice to look at, except I forgot to get ornament hangers. LOL, oops! Why don't they sell ornaments with hangers? I don't get that!

So Dave has been at his new job for four weeks now, and is really enjoying it. It is a challenging job where he has a lot of paper work to do at home, and physical type work to do in each store. He is a Territory Manager for Valspar Paints (Lowe's paint brand). He has 7 stores he has under him and has to visit each week. He does all of the ordering, straightening up (if they Lowe's employee's aren't doing it), changes out signs (and light blubs) in their show cases, and pretty much anything with their name on it, if it needs to be done he has to do it. The Lowe's employee's aren't expected to do it, but sometimes they do see things that need to be done and do it, but ultimately it's his responsibility.

Thankfully he's able to live with his parents during the week and he comes home on most weekends depending on what is going on. It's been hard being away and alone, but I keep reminding myself he has a great job and I'll be joining him in June. The plan is for use to buy a house next summer in the Savannah area. I'll be searching for a job after the new year. So keep me in your prayers to finding a job. The education departments all over GA are all dealing with budget cuts, and so I'm afraid that finding a job might be rather difficult. Thankfully I do come with 5 years of experience, so we'll see.

I hope everyone is having a great Holiday Season, and We're sending you all our good Blessings!
We Love and Miss you all!!
Dave and Jess
