Jumping Back In

Okay, so I am back. It's been a long break, and about time I show up again. A lot has happened in the past couple of months; therefore, I did not have time to blog. I just don't know how you Mom's find the time to sit down and add pictures and stories that seem to take me hours to put down. Bravo to you ladies!

Okay, so the plan after Italy was to find a house in the Dallas/Fort Worth, TX area and move there, but I guess all plans find a detour somehow. Gregg and I found a bunch of houses in TX that we fell in love with, and we were ready to commit. However, the VA was not so ready. Gregg and I tried applying for a home loan, but it was just not in the cards for us at that time. The VA turned us down because we were moving overseas and did not have a guaranteed job in the states, and was very disappointed in the fact that Gregg was leaving the Army. Hence, the detour.

Our detour is coming back home to Memphis, TN. It wasn't exactly what we wanted at the time, but we are truly happy in our lives right now. We have a beautiful home we rent out of, and family at our finger tips.

[Gotta love phone cameras!]
When we got here, we that it was important for me to find a job, and luckily, my old workplace asked me to join their time again..ecstatic doesn't even begin to describe how I felt. So, I am working as a CTA at Cole Pain Therapy Group. Gregg will be starting back school in the fall at University of Memphis, so we have been busy getting him all set up for that.


So, the blog will be changing from our life in Italy to our transition back home. I will be giving you updates on the home aspect, such as, decorating, organizing, gardening, losing weight and more. It will also be a place for me to introduce my new business that I will talk about in another post.

So, grab some coffee, take a seat, and dive into Because I Said So.
