Just like any other newly married couple, we have struggled financially and we have wondered how we were going to buy groceries some weeks. We always have money for rent, since that is our first priority, but money we use for anything else we need, we always barley scrape by, and somehow we always did. We always had enough. But it's life, and that's what happens when your a newly wed couple still in college working minimum wage jobs, and that's how our life is going to be until we graduate and start careers.
Back in February I quit my job at a call center here in Rexburg. It was a horrible job. I don't think I ever worked all of the hours I was scheduled for each week because if they don't have enough work they send people home. Which was not ok. I needed that money and I needed to be at work. So finally I was fed up with it and I left. Tyson and I thought it was something that we needed to do. So after that I started watching my sister in laws kids while she was at work during the week. It was fun, I got to spend more time with them and it was fun playing with them all day and I loved them making me laugh all day everyday. But obviously this wasn't something that I could do forever. So back to job hunting I went, and everyone knows job hunting is not fun.
After trying places and not being able to find anything, I kept praying and got a blessing so that I could finally find a job. I got a call this morning that made me so happy I was shaking for about an hour. I got a job in the book store on campus as a cashier! I was so nervous that I would get hired somewhere and I would be working late at night, and work on sundays and that I wouldn't be able to spend time with Tyson. But no, I work Monday through Friday, some Saturdays because you switch off with other people and no sundays and no late nights! Talk about blessings! Tyson and I couldn't be happier today!
On another note, the one thing that does suck today, is that it is snowing in Idaho Falls, which means it's going to eventually start snowing here in Rexburg. Whhhyyyy? Ugh, I can't wait for Tyson to be done so we can just move to Florida already ;) haha
