Update

So let's see, i haven't been on this thing a while. Sorry guys it's been pretty busy. I've been at my job for a little over a month now and i love it but i know it's not what i want to do for the rest of my life. I'm going to remain there until i get my degree. My friend kelly is going to help me find a two year course so i can get started.
As far as the family goes, schmeee is schmeee haha, cheesey just had his tail amputated but atleast he's healthy now, dale well he's never home anymore. Poor guy, always has to travel. This Louisiana job is killing him. Gone 8 days and home for 3. I know we've been through worse than this so i know i can handle it. I just miss him. Makes the heart grow stronger. Then there's me...since dale's been gone i usually work or go out with a few friends. I've been getting to know the night life in dt nashville. Very different from cleveland. The ppl are nicer and the places are indescribable. Oh betty i found the best sushi place. Nothing like we use to get back in ohio. Holy moly. Hopefully one of these days i can share it with you all but if not then i hope to get back home and see you. Missing everyone immensly.

Oh my, working again!

So this was my first day back to work in 7 mths i believe. It's great to be working again but it's so overwhelming. I still get nervous for a bit when i go in everyday but hopefully that will pass. It's so completely different then the job i've known for 16 yrs. I actually work for someone else and only getting one day off at a time is killing me at the moment. Again im sure i'll get use to this. I lost 5 pounds in 7 days which is worth the 8 hrs of running my ass off. In the weeks to come im suppose to be completely on my own which freaks me out like nothing else right now but atleast i have all the support in the world. Thank you friends, family and especially my loving boyfriend who has calmed me down in the last week more then he ever has our whole relationship. He's such a great man and treats me so well that i hope he realizes his own potential. This is going to be our yr. I can feel it. Things are finally falling into place for us.

Today was a good day!

So on sat me and dale decided it would be a good day to go shopping. Now mind you i dont mean for other ppl i meant for ourselves. Gotta do that once in awhile . Anyway we ended up at the mall oprymills which is right by opryland hotel. So we did our usual bar run at dave and busters and then trecked out for the shopping. 3 hrs later and we decided to go see the lights inside the hotel . Picture in middle. The whole hotel is like this during the holiday season. It's one of the most beautiful places i 've ever seen. It's definitely a must see.
After the hotel we came home and had our own christmas. I bought dale a zune and he got me a dell laptop , so needless to say it was a good christmas. Hope you all have a wonderful christmas.
xoxo

Finally in Nashville

So we finally made it to Nashville. I'm so excited and happy to be here. I love our new apartment, new friends and new scenery. I haven't taken very many pictures yet but when i do i will make sure to post them. It was a rough move but we made it. Two days of driving at 12 hrs a day made me want to go insane but i got through it thanks to my honey huck. Don't get me wrong, new friends will never replace the old who i miss so very much and can't wait to see around the holidays. Love you all.

Packing

This week was the first week of many to come. Packing, i hate it. Huck leaves today for nashville and Jennifa comes in on sat. for a few days. I'm left again to do it alone for now. Huck will help when he gets back but he still has to work and go to utah for another job. I'm so glad this will be our second to last move. We just keep accumulating more stuff in each place which makes the job harder. I honestly hate it when huck leaves, i feel so alone. Lucky for me Jennifa will be coming to keep me company. Oh well enough of my ranting, back to work.

birthday yay!!!!!!!

So this past weekend was my birthday and huck rented us a cabin in Ruidoso New mexico. I swear i could live there. I love it. First night we went to out favorite restaurant, Pasta Cafe. Love it. Yummy. The next day we went fishing all day long, I caught absolutely nothing. Huck caught a rainbow trout but it was only about 6 inches long. lol Of course we didn't keep it haha.That night we grilled out on our patio with the river in the back . So So pretty. It was the best birthday i've had in a long time. Next week i get to shop for my birthday gift which is a stereo for the kitchen. Im so excited. Packing next yippie. Lets get the hell out of here.
