I feel like rambling...

I’m still alive and kicking.

Things are up and down and all around, but in general, life is treating me very well. For one, Joshua and I just bought a Co-Op in the Bronx. So we’ve been spending most of our free time fixing up our new home. It's been stressful but it's also been fun, and all the more enjoyable because I have the company of my love. I’m so anxious to move in together already but we still have much to do with the place. We’re re-painting all the walls and borders and putting in black stained hardwood floors. Hopefully we’ll be done by mid-June we’re trying to move in as soon as possible since we’re already paying for maintenance. We’re thinking of re-doing our whole kitchen as well, as in changing the cabinets, sink, countertop, putting tiles on the walls, etc., but we’re not quite sure if that will fit in our budget since we’re buying our furniture as well, …we don’t want to move in an empty apartment now. And speaking of furniture, we got one off our list. Last week we finally bought our couch, purchased it in Jennifer Leather. I’m totally in love with it. It’s a leather sectional, with two recliners and a queen sofa bed. Can you say sleep over anyone?

Besides fixing up our new home I’ve been crazy organizing and packing my stuff. I realize now how much clothes and junk I have. I’m thinking of just selling a lot of it on E-bay, donating what I can, and then trashing what's left of what I don’t want/need. I am certain that there are people out there who will enjoy all my crap way more than I will enjoy them collecting dust and taking up the already-limited space in our apartment.

As for everything else…, well it’s cruising along. I still can’t get over how well my parents took the news of me moving out nevertheless moving in with Joshua since we’re not married as of yet. I mean come on, we are engaged. Well if you know me, you’ll know why I'm tripping over it. I’m going to miss home a lot. And believe it or not I’ll miss my parents bitching at me almost always about everything and nothing at all. I can’t believe I just said that but anyways, I’m especially going to miss my sister and brother. I swear if it were up to me and I had the money, I would buy a mansion for my whole family to live in so we'd all never be apart.

I feel completely happy right now. My heart is so full, for awhile I was feeling a bit stagnant but not anymore, I feel like I’m right where I need to be. And, of course, everyday I am remembering to breathe.
