I was kinda waiting for a year to pass but I didnt make it. Well, lots of things have changed for me. I am no longer at maryhurst first of all. I could not take putting my life on the line day in and day out anymore. The types of kids we got for the past six months were worse than I could of imagined and they just would not stop sending them in! We did change to the sex offender dorm and they gave us NO training on how to deal with that. It was an entirely different animal working with those kinds of kids. After watching friends get hurt badly (from punching to stabbed with pens) I decided it was time to save my neck. I am working part time at the clark county juvenile detention center now and I LOVE it. I dont have a lot of hours but its wild enough to be interesting and provide me with fun stories but it is SAFE.
Tom also managed to have not one but two heart attacks these past few weeks. It was pretty scary and we thought they were mild but it turned out they were not. He had over 90% damage to his heart and had to have a stint put in. In the past it would of been a triple bypass but thanks to technology it was a much simpler procedure. He has recovered and just is a little tired and cant do too much around the house.
At the same time my great aunt Dorothy passed away. It was sudden and we were all pretty shaken up. The only comfort was if she did recover from what took her the cancer would of given her no kind of life. It was a blessing in disguise but it is always hard to lose a loved one.
In better news, something really big and good happened. After much nay-saying, denying, and all around being pessimistic about the entire issue I managed to meet a wonderful man. SHOCK! let it sink in, after all I can hardly believe it myself. We met on louisville mojo via me hot boxing him and going out the next day. It was one of those moments where everything felt good and we decided within three days we decided we were right for each other and we made it official. Brad and I are a lot alike and have gone through much of the same stuff. He makes me laugh all the time and is accepting of all my quirks and weird interests. He even likes a lot of the same stuff I do! He is pretty damn much everything I ever wanted and makes me so happy. He is even a total hottie! In fact on our first date when he went to kiss me I didnt react because I was in so much shock that such a hot guy was kissing me! We want to take it slow but our his friends and my friends met each other and get along and we have met each other's parents. I'm not sure if that is taking it slow or not, lol.
Our house also just sold. I dont want to move! Mom has to live in jeffersonville for her job and since I still make no money I am going with them. I absolutely do not want to go! This is my home and as soon as I can I will be coming back.
Anyways, here is a picture!
