Holiday Update

Wow, I really stink at this whole updating-the-blog-more-thing! Sorry for the unreliable person I am on this! Life got crazy, and boring! But since, ummm..September (eek!), this is what has happened, I started going to Bible study every Monday, celebrated my 1-year anniversary with the Hub's, celebrated Thanksgiving with both sides of the fam, the Hill's and the Carroll's (my family), and have been gearing up for a rockin' Christmas season!

I love Christmas for the lights, the music, the movies, the traditions and the real meaning of Christmas = Jesus' birth! Oh and that everything has been blasted/dipped in glitter! I love glitter!

My Christmas gift list only has a few things on it, and I won't be heartbroken if I don't get them. The Hub's and I opted to not exchange gifts this year (we might go shopping after Christmas for one thing each that will count as the gift). We are both content and happy with our life and really don't see the need for gifts at this point and time, maybe later on when we have kids it will be easier!

My Wish List:

• Sewing machine
• Desktop computer (If I had a better computer, I might update the blog more, since the laptop never seems to upload or let me edit)
• A career/full-time job!

What is on your wish list this year?

Keep On Keeping On

A small changes will hopefully lead to big results!

So, last Saturday was my last day at the only speciality run store in the Peoria Area, Running Central! Working there was a great experience where I learned a lot more about running then I knew when I used to run (I haven't ran in over 4 years, haha!) This switch-up now gives me a few extra days a week to hopefully create something rewarding and worthwhile a.k.a. I am able to indulge my more creative side.  My graciously husband has given me a year to possibly find a career out of this experiment!

Hopefully this gamble payoffs!

Sorry, it's been so long, there are many life changes on the horizon for the Hill's and no it does not even a little Hill.  It does involve my husband being wonderful and the amazing Ginger that he is has agreed to me quitting my retail job in order to try work on building my portfolio to get a grown-up job! He loves me.

Hopefully, this little excursion will lead to big things for us.  This will tighten up the budget even more but there is nothing like seeing how far we can stretch a dollar!

Fingers crossed I will be blogging more with more photos to go along with it! And I might build up the confidence to finally link up to other blogs!
