(no subject)
soooo much has happened recently. I'm 26 now. I just found out my best friend/roommate is pregnant. She is moving out to live with her fiance in two weeks. Excited for her (and for my and Dav's privacy too) but I'm going to miss her of course and things will be a little tight without her help around the house.
Things at work have been going well. I was chosen employee of the month and my stats are looking good again for this month. I've really thought and prayed about trying to get into the leader intern (management training) program. I really like my job and for the most part I'm having a good day. It helps of course that all of my customers have been decent. If I become a manager they won't be so nice probably but i still think it's something I can deal with.
Dav and I want to buy a house. It would actually end up being cheaper than renting now that my friend is moving out. but we have to work on our credit. We have two things in collections now that we are working on paying off. I hope we can have our own place soon, that we can paint any color and put up art prints of Van Gogh and Walter Ingliss Anderson in the living room, have a "clubhouse" we can trash up with ramones and sex pistols posters and music and I can have a place to work on my crafts and Dav can store all of his Star Wars books. I can't wait!!! But apparently I have to wait, at least six months. And maybe, just maybe in another two years or so, we can pop out a little McPerk baby. (i can just imagine how cute our child will be all decked out in chuck taylors and basically a mini version of us :0) )
I've been really artsy lately. I'm crocheting my best friend a baby blanket (in gender neutral colors of course). i've also wanted to start designing clothes and sewing. my head is spinning with ideas!!!! I feel so much happier than i did last year, or even a few months ago. I am getting control and organization back in my life, and that's a good thing.
I've had my struggles too though... anger, frustration over our current financial state.... i've tried not to let it draw me away from God, but closer to Him. I'm still working on that one. Oh well aren't we all spiritual works in progress?
