What a relief...
The last few weeks have been so crazy, but I am glad my questions were answered, what a relief. I realized how much I really do want to spend forever with Jon and have his babies. Kind of a bizarre thing that I almost never thought possible, like the idea of staying with someone until you die. That is kind of a daunting thought, but I guess for at least 49% of married couples it happens. Isn't the divorce rate 51% now? I love Jon, but this is why I am in no rush to get married, besides the fact that he is still in school and we have no money to have a wedding.
But anyway, I can't wait for Christmas. I just put up my tree this weekend and decorated and put all the presents underneath it. How fabulous. I am exchanging gifts with my Mom, Mary and Kris this weekend since my mom will be gone for the actual holidays. And we are having a day of baking, so excited. Every year since before I can remember my mom and I have baked for the holidays. I guess it is one of those traditions you never want to let go off. It is one I definitely plan to do with my kids one day. Christmas Eve I am doing gifts with Jon and then Christmas Day is Jon's family and dinner with my dad. New Years I think we planned to stay in and do game night at our apt and dress up! CAN NOT WAIT! HOLY 2009! I want to set realistic New Year's Resolutions that I will actually stick to. Like really, who keeps the resolutions they set. No one, and then the next year they do the sames ones they never completed from the year before, lol.
Work is just...work. I hate saying that. I want to say I love my job, but I only just like it. I am looking forward to gaining some work experience and then getting paid what I really deserve. I finally ordered a study guide for my LCSW which I should get within the next week. And then I plan to sit for the test sometime in the beginning of 2009. I was also talking with another therapist whose specialty is substance abuse and she suggested I complete my CADAC at WSC, my alma mater! But, I don't think I am ready to go back to school just yet, plus I can't afford it. I don't need it for my current job, but it may be a thought when I am in a setting that is mainly focused on substance abuse.
Ok, that is about it. I should try and get some paperwork done.
