Everyone struggles at some point in there life, whether it be school, kids, jobs, money, etc. Life always has twists and turns but we have to realize some struggles come with the choices we have made in life. I haven't always made the right choices or the best choices in my life, and trust me I'm paying for it. My sister doesn't trust me because of things I have done but I am a changed person.
It's so hard for my family right now as the oil field has gone down a lot. Matthew is off so much more, no rigs means no money coming in. I'm currently looking for two jobs and he is looking for a job as well so he can work while we wait for the oil field to come back up. It's so stressful with both of us in school and needing to work. I just worry about the bills, but the best part is that we don't fight over the money situation, we talk everything out. Fighting isn't gonna make the stress go away or the money magically appear so everything is okay. We struggle just like everyone else does.
We have a great relationship even through all our struggles, but I'm not saying we don't fight or bicker because we do. We are no different than any other couple. We have our moments but we always talk it out. We are getting legally married in the next few months and I'm so ready for that. I'm glad we have waited longer because that way we know for sure this is gonna work. I know not everyone agreed with Matthew and I's decision to wait 6 years but it's our choice not theirs.
Please keep matthew's mother in your prayers, there's a lot going on with her right now and she needs prayers.
