WOWOWOW
Everything is coming together in a huuuge way!
John has been qualified for his loan. The sellers are signing to a shortsale, thusly it appears the 5,000 dollar prepay veteran whatever they got themselves into should no longer be an issue...meaning- if all goes as planned- we will be moving into a wonderful home together, ideally before February 12th when John's Bammy (grandmother) arrives to steal our room at his parents' for several months. Also, I tried Indian food for the first time, and it is KILLER.
I am EXTREMELY close to getting a vehicle and car insurance, and am starting to lose much of my holiday lard. Kristen's baby shower is very soon, after which I will hopefully FINALLY be able to visit Ben, Elyse, Gab, and Olivia in their new home. Also, I should be visiting Amber for shows- Ian, and Burg when i go to orlando to shoot (which apparently will be happening a lot).
I'm already looking into the availability of the job Kristen and I have been planning for years for me- transporting at Homles Regional downtown- where she and her moms work (between John and I's parents' houses, near what I hope will be ours, right across from the gym we plan to attend AND near enough school for my learning and John's teaching, and the bar at which he dj's) and will provide me with much-needed flexible hours, good pay, and health benefits. I shall soon take my GED after some pathetic math prep. Also, I'm looking into vocational courses (mechanics, radiology, lab tech, dental hygienist, comsetology, culinary, bartending, et cetera) to take with my AA classes to tide me over after transporting while I work through whatever film school I decide on. In the mean time, I'm getting a lot of shoots lined up to make a great portfolio, and am finally starting to get paying offers that aren't creepy, fetishy, or porn. I'm thrilled at the opportunity to work with true artists whose aesthetics I adore and work I believe in.
I'm reconnecting with old friends and making new ones. Thought I'm too busy to spend time with anyone but John and family at the moment, soon I'll have the time and means to see everyone including my shrink.
I'm slowing down on cigarettes, weed, and alchohol (though I never drank much), and even the anxiety drugs I haven't needed much of but did depend on, and I'm going back down the vegan path with the detour of raw and organic foods, and beginning to work out and take much better care of myself.
All of the things I've been waiting and needing to purchase for years are arriving and on their way to me. I'll finally have room to not be a cluttered mess.
I am in love with a lovely man who treats me accordingly, and am having the best sex of my life. Things with my family are better (though hardly perfect) and I'm loving meeting and getting to know more and more of his.
Soon I will actually be a highly functioning and successful adult, it seems...intimidating a prospect though it is, I'm as excited as I am terrified.
AND the degrassis with Terri and Rick are on!
Life is good. :)
