Short update

Once again it has been a while since I posted but life has been so busy with work. We are still getting adjusted to Texas it is amazing how different it is here. The people are different not just the way they talk but how they dress, what they eat, lifestyles and the pace of life. Brian is used to California pace of life which is so fast and here it is polar opposites! Everyone does everything so slow! Drive.talk..walk..eat..everything! The storms here are insane! I already hate the thunder and lightening but this takes it to a whole other level so scary!!! Brian loves it lol! The cold here is like chill to the bone!! But it has been pretty much good. I love my job and the majority of the people I work with. Brian wants to find a new job which I would like him to do as well so there can be some normalcy around here. We like it here and we are slowly but surely making friends. There has been some good news that has come about but not something we can share yet and no I'm not pregnant! Lol well that is all for now :) something is better than nothing!!

THE COUNTDOWN BEGINS!!

So as I am sure that everyone knows I have been going to school. I started May 2007. I go online through a college called Westwood College. It has been hard and really time consuming even if I only do it when I can it is just something that is going to change my life...i hope! Well the countdown is on!!!....I am officially done with school in 2 weeks! July 25, 2010 is my last official day of school. Then on the 29th of July my family and I are going to Denver, Colorado so that I can officially graduate!!! July 30th is the graduation date!! I couldn't be more happier and more proud of myself! I am the first one of my family to be graduating from college! I will have my Bachelor's degree in Business concentrating in Accounting. Basically I will have my Bachelors in Accounting! This has been the longest/shortest 3 years of my life and of course the next 2 weeks are probably going to go as slow as they possibly could because I am so excited! I don't even know what I am going to do with my life once I have my weekends back! This is just a huge step in the direction of my new life! I have worked so hard and I am so proud of all that I have achieved! I got my cap and gown and we are taking pictures so I will post those soon...but 19 days and counting!!!

Whats been goin on??

So not much has changed since my last post...Brian got a job with a company called Stake It...he started the schooling and we were both super happy that he was going to start working and we would start getting more money! well he didn't even get two weeks through school and training before they called them in the office and said that they had lost their biggest contract so they were going to have to lay them off...granted they haven't even started really working or getting paid but still...so we are back at square one with the job which sucks so bad! We hate living in our townhouse because we hate the neighbors and there is no room for the idiot dogs which makes it hard for us because I want to kill them but Brian loves them to death! Ok I love Luke just not Mylee! Work for me...is work..school..is ridiculous and I seriously can't even wait for one minute to be done with school! I just can't even wait to have my life back! I hate doing homework and whatever else! Ok I don't mind writing the papers but I hate the quizes because I freak out and its dumb! My dad had the gastric bypass surgery and I hope it helps with all of his health problems which it already has but he just hasn't been able to feel good yet so even though it has been 5 weeks and he has lost 65 lbs he feels like crap! so he really isnt too happy with the surgery! I just think that if he gets over this hump of the pain and discomfort it will be amazing for him. I miss my sister and princesses so much and everday I wish they were here...I don't know if there is ever a day that I don't think about them and miss them so much its sad. but I know that we both have to live our lifes and do what is best for us...just wish it was closer :) Hmm what else?...Yeah I think that is about all I have to see for now...more later :)

Hard Times

I just wanted to make a post to tell everyone how frustrating it is to find a job in this economy! I know that everyone knows what I am talking about but my boyfriend has been looking for job for 2 months and NOTHING! Granted he is in the construction field but still someone with so much experience should be able to find something....ANYTHING! But no he is going to start something that he and I both dont want him to do AT ALL! but when you have no other choices what can you do? He is starting truck driving school to become a truck driver. So that means that the relationship we are supposed to be trying to build back up right now is put on hold or done over the phone! annoying! ok bye now

Wow

Wow so it looks like I haven't written on here in almost a year!!! I just barely missed the year mark! So much has happened this past year you don't even know! good times, bad times and even worse times! So here is a little preview of what has gone on in the past year....Nothing really to report for January to April....in May I broke up with Brian my boyfriend and I moved back in to Toni's house...and I started looking to transfer back up to Utah within Allied Waste. Well in July that finally happened! I accepted a position as a customer service rep and moved back to Utah the weekend of the 4th of July. I liked working there for the time being I hated the commute and there were some people there who made it unbearable to work there! In June my Uncle Robb got killed in a motorcycle accident because some DOUCHE BAG! couldnt wait 10 seconds...no 5 seconds to turn they just had to be a stupid idiot and take away a life that was so amazing that I don't even know what to say. That was such a bad day my dad lost his best friend in the whole entire world! Still to this day it is so hard for him and I can only imagine what his family is going through! In July, Brian started texting and emailing me and we slowly started talking and he came to visit in October and we talked for hours and hours and hours about our relationship and everything and in November he moved out here to Utah to be with me...and boy has he changed! Everything about him is a different person and that is what I wanted all along so things are going really well with us and I couldnt be happier! My dad has been in and out of the hospital this past year. He had a heartattack a week after burying his best friend! and after that he has been in and out of the hospital he was put on full insulin for his diabetes. I got a new job with a medical billing company and it is taking some getting used to thats for sure because it is a field I have never ever worked in but I am catching on quickly. Umm still in school and hating every minute of it! 3 terms left!!!!!!!!!!!! YAYYY i seriously cant wait! Umm yeah that is all for now there is the readers digest version of what has been going on in my life this past year. I will try and keep up better on this but yay gonna go do finals now!
