Nothing really changes, it's all the same when your broke, but we are doing alright. I work untill 5 at a job I don't really like, I am trying to get a new position or a new job, which ever comes first. Kenny and I decided we didn't want him working at his day job, so now he only works nights, but is currently looking for another company. It was too much stress on him, too little pay, and bad management. I didn't feel his pay was worth a heart attack. So needless to say it is tight right now. I am kind of having a hard time adjusting to living on my income alone, his night job is cutting his hours really short now too.
Speaking of this reminds me of our lesson in sacrament this Sunday, "Staying within your means." I really did pay attention to that one, I knew how important it was that your parents show you how to manage finances, and show how real life works, and I knew a lot of divorce is caused by finacial diffuculties, but I didn't really think about how it all come together. people expect to be able to have the same life style after marriage, and most of the time you can't. So yea, it was interesting.
This past Saturday,the 15 was my first day at the temple, I did baptisms for the dead!!! It was the most incredible experience, I had, since mine.lol. But it was amazing because with a few of the people I could actually feel them, and her them say thank you. I was, I can't even explain my feelings, Dan asked me if I was ok, lets put it that way. I wanted to do it agian as soon as I was done!! AMAZING EXPERIENCE. I feel so bad for the people who can't do this for thier families, and can't experience this feeling. I can't wait till Kenny gets his recommend.
The Easter pagent was this week, and this wek so we're going to try to go with Kenny's family and Dan and Sherri. It'll be hard to schedule though because of Linda's GED testing, and Kenz is going on treck this week!!! I wish I could have been a ma, that would have been fun since I was a poop when I had my chance, O well, I 'll wait till next year.
I havn't been able to take any pictures of anything, no camera, so when I get one I'll send some. But I want my pictures, if they've been sent I havn't got them yet, I need to change my address still so, Kathy, did you send anything yet, if not please send it to Linda's house, you too mom.
But we do have everything unpacked and set up, the only thing we need now is the internet. I got a cool little desk for the computer, and a table for the dining room at Goodwill on half off Saturday. I LOVE 1/2 off at Goodwill, you can find really cool stuff, and I get all my scrubs there!! And it's the Saturday right after I get paid, hehehe.
There are a few things we are trying to work on , so if you guys could pray for us we would appreciate it. Thank You.... Don't worry though, we're ok.
Well I gatta go back to work, I'll update when I can. LOVE YOU ALL SOOOO MUCH.....BER

Jeese, that is unfortunate about Kenny's job. That totally sucks to be tired all the time and not get paid for it! I hope something turns up for him soon!
That is great that you went to the Temple! It definately is an amazing experience! Just wait until you can be sealed! That is really amazing too! Try to go as much as you can; it will be great when Kenny can go with you!
Yay Goodwill! That is great that you were able to get great stuff at half off!
I will keep you guys in my prayers! I love you both!
Amber,
Hang in there! You're in our prayers too. Congrats on going to the Temple! It's tough adjusting to married life, but you somehow get to a point where you just depend on each other in every way. That's where the rewards start falling in place. Finances are a big deal. There's no getting out of constantly working out that area. Happy job hunting!
