God Works in Wonderful, Mysterious Ways

It has been a wild week for me - so many exciting events to process, so many emotions! ;) Every day just keeps getting better and better. Yesterday my beautiful niece was born, and I love her already! Today I find out that Chris is getting new orders cut and we are moving! This is the news we have been waiting for. I feel so excited, relieved almost, to get this ball rolling! We've only been talking about it for over a year now. We will be moving in 30-60 days, which I realize is very soon. But it is good news to me because it validates all the tough decisions that Chris and I have made in this past year. We did not anticipate living apart from each other for so long, and not having a job was starting to worry me. My brain has not been able to slow down lately, so an upcoming move gives me something to focus on! I think I will become a lot more productive and I'm sure I will soon be complaining about how I just need more time to get it all done. There are still a lot of unknowns in this situation, so let me remind you of what we do know:

  • Chris is currently at Ft. Benning, GA.
  • We are moving to Ft. Campbell, KY.
  • Ft. Campbell is located on the border of Kentucky and Tennessee.
  • Neighboring cities are Oak Grove, KY and Hopkinsville, KY and Clarksville, TN.
  • Ft. Campbell is about 45 minutes northwest of Nashville.
  • We will live about 7 hours from Kansas City, so driving home for visits is doable.
  • The cats are going to hate every minute of this move.
I will keep you all updated!!

The Long-Anticipated Blog Name Change!!

I started my blog in May 2010, and I didn't even write a single post for nearly 2 years. I wanted a blog, but I didn't know what I wanted to do with it . I remember just sitting in my living room, newly married, and just slapping a name on the blog: Domestic Diva Domain ( I love alliteration, okay?! It's the cutesy preschool teacher in me!). I didn't love it, but I thought, it'll do. Fast-forward a few years, and I dabbled in different topics, such as recipes, DIY tutorials, a few random updates about my life, and some Wordless Wednesday posts with just photos. I spent some time trying to understand how to format a blog and realized I'd never  understand coding! Everything I  know about blogging was learned from countless hours basically doing trial and error using the provided templates. I linked up a few of my posts with Pinterest and that got me A LOT of views! One of my posts has been linked in many online articles about creative storage for the home. I...

Let's Play Series: Summer is HERE!

I'm trying to get my life together (I feel like I'm always saying this!) and I've come up with a summer schedule for my 2 and 3 year old! I wanted a schedule that allows for lots of playtime and exploration in a laid back, no pressure kind of way. I didn't want to be on a specific timeline, so I only chose a few things that require a specific time commitment. The rest of our schedule is on our terms! This is the first summer that I feel like I'm ready for something structured. My kids are 19 months apart, and my youngest is now about 2.5 and I'm not tied down with needing to breastfeed a baby or rushing home for nap times (car naps are the WORST!!). I'm still pretty rigid with nap times, but they are old enough that we can be a little more flexible and it's not that big of a deal anymore. Last summer, my husband was deployed, so trying to do things by myself all the time with a 1 and 2 year old was truly a struggle some days. So I am READY to embrace a...

Making Myself A Priority: A Journey

You know what is kind of cool? Every time I work out, in the middle of all the sweat and struggle and discomfort and thoughts of "this is hard; I want to quit", I also have these really amazing thoughts of perseverance during hard times. It's almost like the clouds of negativity dissipate in my mind, allowing positive thoughts to filter in. I kind of bask in the high of my endorphins, and let the inspirational thoughts float around in my head! Back when I went to the gym, I would get these thoughts too. I always remember thinking that I wished I had a way to blog while running on the treadmill because I would get these inspirational thoughts and I wanted to write them down! I would finish my workout and basically run to the nearest table and chair just so I could whip out my phone and jot down my thoughts! And now, I'm sitting on the edge of my chair, all sweaty, post-workout, to get this all written down! My thoughts never seem to come out as fluidly if I wa...
