It's been awhile...
It's been what?... almost 2 months. LoL!
So many things have happened since then. Let's see...
I transfered departments at work. Now I work in HBC (Health & Beauty Care) instead of in Service. It's fun. Some days I stock stuff; other days I just work on conditions. Basically I get to pull the products forward so that it makes the shelves look pretty. :-)! LoL! Those are the boring days, really. Surprisingly, I actually like my new department a lot better. It has its moments.
In January, Matthew and I went back out to Illinois for a little vacation from work. It was pretty cool because I got to see my niece, Abigail, who I hadn't seen since June. She's gotten so big! I saw her a few days before her first birthday. And to celebrate, here are a few pics...
I also got my 4th tattoo later that same day. It's on my right ankle, and it's of a star with a bunch of swirls and little stars. More pictures! Yay!

My stepbrother, Justin, also came out to visit while we were there. He brought his fiancee, Jessica, with him. It'd been about 2 years since I'd seen him, so that was pretty cool. She was very nice, and seemed very happy with Justin. Yay for that. A picture of the happy couple during a game of Phase 10:
Another good thing that happened while we were in Illinois was that Matthew proposed! Yay!! So, I am now engaged to the most wonderful man ever. It's so very exciting! We're looking at August of 2008 to have the wedding. That gives lots of time for saving and planning. We're thinking of maybe having it outside, which should be fun. I might try talking him into having it at the Franklin Park Conservatory, but that, of course, depends on if we agree to it and how much it costs and all that jazz. Here's a link to their site. {http://www.fpconservatory.org/} So, we'll see. I think it would be good because it'd be like an outside-type feel without having to worry about the weather cooperating. Who knows?! LoL! So anyway, here are some pictures that go along with the engagement.
So, let's see... what else?!
Oh! I got to go to my first hockey game a couple weeks ago. Matthew and I went to see the Columbus Blue Jackets against the Phoenix Coyotes. I had a lot of fun, even though, to be perfectly honest, I knew absolutely nothing about hockey. LoL! I'm sure Matthew was probably getting annoyed with how many questions I was asking. =)! He's so wonderful. LoL! The Blue Jackets ended up losing, but that's okay. It was fun to watch. More pictures!
Well... I guess that's about all for now. It's late, and I'm getting tired. Maybe I'll post pictures of Binx soon. We'll see. For now, though, it's goodnight for me.
Until then...
