Hiloshats and update on life

Well I finally started my etsy site. So far I've only had one sale, but it's still early and I'm hopeful! :) It's been a lot of fun making hats and setting up the site for everyone to see. If you'd like check it out at www.etsy.com/shop/HilosHats .

In other news S and I are getting ready to move here in just a few days. We have had the most amazing blessing of being able to move into some friends of Scott's parents house for a year, and save on money but also have a lot more room. It is also a LOT closer for Scott's work, and will cut his commute down quite a bit. It's also three houses or so away from Scott's Aunt Chana, so we will be able to be near family. I'm so excited!! It's doubel the size of our current place with an extra bedroom and bathroom, so we will be able to have company over and entertain. It's all around a great great thing. :)

We are also heading to Hawaii here in about a month and a half. We are going with his brother another Aunt and her daughter, his mom, and her friend from Cali. I am SO excited to be able to go to Hawaii for the first time, and I know it will be an absolute blast!!

I have been struggling a little with feeling very much like a failure and having rather low self-esteem, this isn't new, I have been feeling like it for a while, I just have had a lot of drama issues with several friends and I have felt like it's been my fault when I know it's not. It's sad when there are those people out there who you thought you could trust and count on, but when it comes to it there are very very few that you actually can count on.

I am however looking foward to a year full fo change, some good, and some maybe hard change, but I know God is carrying me through it all, and I am so thankful for His blessings. God has been so good to me and to Scott and has really worked and intervened in our personal lives, as well as our marriage.

Until Next Time,
Mrs. S
