I am thankful for your friendship. <br /><br />These were extra photos from Bok Tower when we went a couple months ago. It really was pretty out there. <br /><br />Hubbys are hilarious aren't they?!

First, I'm so glad another job opportunity came about, I just knew it would - you're too good of a teacher to not be teaching! Also, you didn't over react. You were heartbroken and blindsided, you deserved some moments of mourning - no worries. You suffered a loss and needed time to recover.<br /><br />On another note, beautiful pictures in this post! And your story of Adam had me cracking up!! LOL!

The dragon warmer sounds really cool. My daughter would like that. My Adam turns 35 in July. But he would not be a happy camper with a wax party. Thank you for the well wishes Nicole! I hope you have a nice week!

That sounds exactly like a typical male and what they would do! I love this idea though and have tried several times to sit my own husband down and sniff a few for him to have melting in the living room while he works at his desk. You would think we were torturing them lol. <br />I hate to hear about your hard week and about your job. I know that must have been hard but like you said God is in control and has everything worked out for you. He is moving you on to bigger and better things! So excited for you that you already have a new job and get to start out fresh come fall. <br />The pictures are beautiful, keep up the great work! <br />-Themeltdownblog themeltdownbloghttp://themeltdownblog.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-60752700492972787022016-05-26T08:16:07.211-04:002016-05-26T08:16:07.211-04:00Omg!

I asked him if wanted a theme for his party.. He jokingly said it had to be wax melts!! Well he's going to regret that haha got him the manly man rose quartet from CVS and a dragon skull warmer. I'm sorry to hear of you being let go but most times those situations truly lead to something better!

I remember having to go through some therapy after becoming a stay at home mom because the transition was initially so hard. That and a bit of post-partum blues. Now that you mentioned the identity tie it all comes back. I do forget sometimes that I am more than my hats. Thank you for reminding me. Much love and happiness to you friend. And you have a rejuvenating summer too!

It will be my pleasure to review those two!<br /><br />I am sorry to hear the economy is not healthy there. I hope something you will enjoy pops up for you. I know you will have your home soon.

I am looking forward to meeting my new students too though. Since Montessori is a 3 year cycle I will get to know these new kids even better. Hope you are doing well.TheRedolentMermaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12025330454820306972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-4640299542417715492016-05-25T21:29:43.265-04:002016-05-25T21:29:43.265-04:00Thank you Jean.

So much of our identity and self-worth gets wrapped up in our work, but I have no doubt that you are great at your job and this will be a wonderful new chapter for you! <3 Enjoy the summer vacation in the meantime!!!!futurowomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772755069537635296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-58988534692078570982016-05-25T12:59:28.230-04:002016-05-25T12:59:28.230-04:00I literally LOL'd so hard at your husband'...I literally LOL'd so hard at your husband's antics! I will have to read this story to my husband later; I get the feeling if we lived near each other they'd be best friends. :) That was seriously the funniest thing I've read in a long time. It would be so entertaining to have my hubby pick out some scents; I seriously have no idea what he'd choose. <br />Reviews on Calypso and Serendipity Cream Pie please? I should have my order in about 2 weeks! :D<br /><br />On a serious note, I'm terribly sorry to hear about your job. It can be difficult to not take such things to heart. I'm so glad to hear you already found a new position though! Perhaps the whole experience will be a blessing in disguise.<br /><br />I'm not having any luck on the job front; the economy's terrible here. While it's not essential that I get a job, having extra income would relieve a huge burden and it would be my heart's desire to get my own home. I'm trying to be zen about it and just relax and take life one day at a time. For now I'm enjoying my stress free bubble of sniffing waxes and painting nails, haha.<br /><br />As always, it was a pleasure to read your post! Best of luck on your new adventures!Amanda C.http://www.thriftypolished.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-74554547334984495602016-05-25T08:30:38.379-04:002016-05-25T08:30:38.379-04:00I'm sorry about your job at the middle school,...I'm sorry about your job at the middle school, Julie. I often feel the same way about caring though - do I care too much about things? It can make hard times even harder, but I feel like it's just something ingrained into me and if I were to try stopping...I'm not sure if I could. It's just part of who you are. The Montessori job sounds exciting though! What a good opportunity that came at the right moment! :) Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15162954130039022998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-53922459868464099762016-05-25T07:32:46.333-04:002016-05-25T07:32:46.333-04:00Congrats Julie!!
