Personal Frustrations

1.27.2012

With all of the wonders of the first months of marriage has come a couple of low moments for Ryan and I. We, as a couple, have been wonderful but life has just been plain hard since our October nuptials. First, I came home from the honeymoon and immediately had to go back out on the road for work (my own fault). Then, my car broke down right before the most expensive time of year, Christmas. So not only did we not have any money do to presents, and no car, but we had also planned to make a trip to Ohio to see my Dad and family. That meant we had to drive Ryan's gas guzzling Jeep the 15 hour round trip to visit them. It felt like the monetary black hole we had entered would never end.

It was not my dream to use the generous monetary wedding gifts we'd received to buy a car, it was not my dream to be so broke that we couldn't buy the puppy we desperately wanted. It was not my dream to be sitting here writing this post to you on a cold winters day. Finally there seemed to be a break in the clouds, we found a car and we bought it last Saturday, but that to has vanished as I was rear ended last night while stopped blissfully unaware at a red light. This is reality folks. Why do things have to be so tough sometimes? bekuh

  3. Hang in there Bekuh. The first year of marriage is suppose to be the hardest. For us it was because I was on bed-rest while pregnant with Isaac, followed by the decision for me to not go back to work after he was born.
    For you it's this... It will all work out and you guys will be thankful that you were given these challenges. Remember we are never given more then we can handle. AND you guys can handle this. All the challenges we face we face for a reason and they will make us stronger.
    My grandmother just told one of my cousins who is going through a hard time that "we are give these challenges in life so we will be able to deal with or heavenly jobs after." She said "we don't just sit around on clouds" :) I will never forget that!

  4. Oh no, that's awful. I know it sounds stupid, but stay focused on the positive in your life and future. Try to stay optimistic and send out positive energy. Everything will work itself out, there's nothing you can do with what already happened..can't change it. Just keep hustlin' :) Sending good thoughts your way. If all else fails SCREAM in your pillow :D
