As you may know, life has been kind of stressful around our house the last few months. Craig decided it was time to quit his job. Then he realized he wanted to go back to school. After he left his full-time job, started classes, and found a new part-time job, I found out that I've been laid off from my job as of June 16th. So now, I too, am looking for a new job, which may result in us moving back to the Salem area.
So, I've been kind of stressing about all of this. I'm not someone who is very good at flying by the seat of my pants; I want things planned, organized, listed, detailed, structured... you get the idea. Feeling unsure about jobs and income and where we're going to live really throws me for a loop most days. My husband noticed that I'm about to crack.
My husband, Craig, is caring, kind, and thoughtful, and realizing that I needed some rest and relaxation, he got us a room at the beach for one night this weekend. But he didn't just get us any room; he reserved the same room that we stayed in for our honeymoon! He keeps telling me, "We can just do anything at the beach that you want to. This is your weekend."

Could he be any sweeter? I am so looking forward to this wonderful time with my husband-- going out to dinner, walking on the beach, snuggling in front of the fireplace...
