New year and I hope for new beginnings of prosperity and happiness.

Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul.- Psalm 143:8

Happy New Year

Starting anew.

Canon Rebel T3= OH HOLY WOW EH?!

So in the previous post I named a few supporters- Mr. Home Depot, Smokey the Bear, and well...my Momma are being called to the foreground.

Momma- how hard can you rock for showing up to graduation after flying down from New York to Atlanta, driving four hours, and showing up at the house just before we left to go?! Honestly amazing.

Mr. Home Depot- you helped us get through a very difficult time.

The Gemaw- I almost neglected to mention you, almost.  But you are the most dedicated, faithful, giving, generous, unwavering, and faithful person I could ever know.

Smokey the Bear- your awesomeness knows no bounds! And because of that you have given me a dream I had long put aside and will contribute to this blog more, to my home, my family, and maybe even to my wallet!

SO here you go. Photo-in-undation! Well....three pictures anyway I'm just going to be stingy now. :)

Good Golly Ms. Molly!

I had not realized I had gone so long without updating my three..no four followers!

I apologize wholeheartedly. So let's catch up shall we?
I AM DONE WITH MY BACHELOR'S DEGREE! Oh yes, I am in my head currently doing "hammer time" uh oh uh oh!! It's been a long hard struggle not at all easy but I have done it with the support of MANY many loving individuals. I will not name names as I have not allowed them an opportunity to agree to a release of information but we will use pseudonyms they (those special people) will be able to recognize.
Smokey the Bear
Gumby's captor
Mr. Home Depot
The Husband
The offspring
The possum killer who uses the wrong end of a gun
Michigan Hunnie
Handy Pandy
and many more...but they come to mind more readily.

So I passed the Major Field Test (standardized test all must take in the nation in order to get your degree that implies you are a Criminal Justice extraordinaire) with a 175! Bare (bear?) in mind that the national average sits in the 150 range. So BOOOYA!

Now the hunt for red october*cough* I mean a job begins. The ever elusive career starter job. The one that tells the world I have achieved higher than a high school equivalency, took a student loan, and demand more than minimum wage! Honestly though...in this economy let's be real. I just want a job at this point. And one that doesn't just pay for daycare.

So Merry Christmas two weeks out! This is a good one. Been a hard year and have come through a lot. I'm not going to say that we aren't out of the water by no means. But we are treading it and that's all that matters. We are making it. Lots of wonderful home made creative gifts to be made- some really great ideas and believe it or not I will be keeping a record both written and pictorial for your viewing pleasure.

Hubbs is out of town, it's cold, I have no homework (which leaves me feeling a little lost to say the least), and cooking has resumed. Made a new cookie recipe and I will be posting the results later. It's so delicious. I almost ran out of cookie before I could even start. Made me feel brilliant...fat....but brilliant :D

More later!
