What now?
I haven't been here since August. I'm here now because I'm at my second "job" and I'm bored. I checked the friends page and it seems a little lonely nowadays.
So what's new with my life, well, let's see. Oh yeah, I'm a married woman now. As cliche as it is, I am just really pleased with my life right now. My job is okay and I'm really trying to appreciate it. I know that it's a good job and hopefully there is room for advancement, but with rececion looming I'm worried the budget won't allow much advancement. I'm scheduled to start school next fall and I'm a little nervous about that too. I look at other people who have finished grad school and I think "if they can do it, then surely I can". I'm mostly worried about juggling that and the job.
Life at home has been pretty fabulous. I feel like I'm not getting to spend enough time there right now with my husband and my dog. I know I have my whole life to do that but I'm anxious to be with them. I think it's especially hard being away from Jon right now because he's been off for two weeks waiting for his job to start. I just want to sleep in with him and I can't even do that on Saturdays right now. He's been fantastic to a point that I can't even describe. He's been cleaing up around the house, cooking, putting away dishes, doing yard work, and even offering back rubs when I get home from work. He's starts on Monday so I guess it'll be a little different then but he's been wonderful so far. We've even been good roommates so far. I know it's only been 3 weeks since the wedding but things have been going well in that department.
I don't know if I mentioned my health stuff or if I even knew about it in August when I last wrote but I've been having weird things with Thyroid and high blood pressure. They've ruled out a lot of things but I've had to do more blood tests than I can even count. I had to do more today. I'll keep you posted.
So a week after our wedding my cousin Whitney got engaged. She asked me to be her matron of honor. I was really surprised by that. We used to be close but not really since high-school. I've very honored, don't get me wrong. Just really surprised. She also asked Jon to play the guitar and me to sing for their first dance. (Jon and I did a little number at our wedding...but it wasn't all that good.) We listened to the song she wanted but I just don't think it's going to be a good idea.
Then, I found out that Emily and Aaron got engaged last weekend. I am so excited for them! I haven't talked to her about it much but they're not getting married until July of 2010 so I guess she's in no hurry to start planning.
Also Sarah Wunderlin is coming to visit tonight and I'm looking forward to seeing her. Jon is excited that she's coming because she's bring him girl scout cookies. He asked for tag-a-longs/peanut butter patties and samoas/caramel delights. They apparentally have some kind of plan to make a super cookie. I don't know...don't ask me.
I'm also very excited to carve pumkins for halloween and I'm not really sure why. I'm just really excited to do that and to hand out candy to tricker-treaters.
I thought that things would slow down after the wedding but so far they haven't. I've been busier than ever really. There's a lot of legal stuff to tie up with insurance and social security name changes, and a million other things. That part realy sucks.
