Its been a year......

    Its been a year since Halsy graduated from Chiropractic school and what a year it has been!! We started with 4 months of unemployment, followed by 2 months at the worst job EVER!! We are halfway through our 6th month at a new job and we are in absolute heaven! Halsy works at EmPOWERed Health in Clackamas and he works with another chiropractor that has been there for 12 years. She is awesome and we are so grateful. We have been in financial strain as you probably already know for years between school, no job, and bad jobs, and finally starting a new job.......but I am happy to say that things are looking up! There is light at the end of our tunnel and we have hope of actually bringing in some income.
    Well - let me give you a little history (if talking about money offends you or makes you squirmish - don't continue - I am just too excited not to share!) Starting this new job 5 months ago we were given a base amount of $1250.00/ 2 weeks - so $1094 was what we brought home. Which is like living on nothing. Halsy has been working so hard and seeing more and more patients each month. He gets loads of praise from his boss and co-workers and he has return patients that love him. So today he sent me this picture of his check!!

HOLY CRAP!!! 

We've never had that much money in one paycheck in our lives!! We freaked out! So excited!! I am so proud of my husband! I am most happy that he is proud of himself! 

Of course all of it is going towards debts and replacing worn clothing, out of size shoes, new bedding, things that we've just lived with can at least be upgraded a little. But WHO CARES!! I am excited to have some moolah coming in and so blessed that we can work hard and earn what our family needs!!

  We are truly blessed
