well it has been a long ass time since i updated. I've just been too lazy to write i guess. Dont really now what to say.
school is going alright i guess. I'm warming up to a lot of the people there. I think this is the best thing for me right now, to be here. I think id still be miserable if I was still in altamonte. I still love and miss all my brantleyers though <3
me and brandon are doing better than ever, which is hard to believe, cause I didnt think we could do better. I'm seeing him on sunday though and I dont have to pretend to be his sister this time:) Although I'm still sneaking in, hah. Its all good though. I get to hug him and kiss him and love all up on him this time. Anyways, hes doing soo good. His caseworker told his mom that if he keeps up the good work he doesnt see any reason why Brandon wont be out in April. Hes well on his way to getting his GED, hes goign ot start doing this program where hes gonna be this "group leader" or something which will give him extra phone calls and will help him get out in april, and hes gonna start taking culinary classes, which is definately good, cause my cooking skills are ZERO. I cant even heat up veggie bacon in the lil toaster oven (hahahah robyn.. had to throw that in there). I'm bringing him some stuff on Sunday when I see him. I'm bring him a book (The Giver.. GREAT book!), a bag of jellybeans, a card, some pictures, and a snickers bar. I also figured out what I'm gonna get him for christmas (well one of the things im gonna get him). I'm gonna get him one of those road trip books that has lots of pictures of different places around the world and things to do in each city and stuff and have him go through it and circle places that hed like to visit one day. It will also help keep him busy while hes in there. Do you all think that is a good idea? I'm gonna get him some other stuff too, but I'm not sure what yet. Comment if you have any ideas! I got him the perfect christmas card the other day! Its soo sweet. Heres what it says:
On the front it says:
"We Have Each Other; and That's All I Want for Christmas"
And on the inside it says:
"Life may not have always been easy for us, but I know you'll agree that we have moved forard form where we've been. We've learned some lessons, changed a little, and we are blessed. Together, we've learned that life has valleys as well as mountaintops, and there's always some pain. I know there are lots of material things that we don't have and may never have, but we have each other, and that's the best thing, so life is good. Sometimes I think I catch a glimpse of heaven from the warm light of your love and I realize that no matter what we're going through, as long as we're together, we'll be okay. All the dreams that haven't yet come true for us are secondary because I have you and you have me and we have our love. Yes, things could be better, and no, we may not have everything we wan tin life, but we have each other, and that's the most important thing, so life is good. I love you, and I'm thankful for our life together. I Love Sharing Christmas With You."
Isn't it so perfect? I cant wait to send it to him! I want to send it now but I'm gonna make myself wait until christmas. I also found a really good christmas card for Robyn, but I'm not gonna type it out to here since she reads this:) lol. Speaking of Robyn, HOPEFULLY she is coming up to my house for thanksgiving this year, which I can't wait!! I miss her sooo much, and me and her always have so much fun decorating the Christmas tree, which well be doing the day after thanksgiving. Last year that consisted of the "great escape" at my dads house (hahahh.. we had some guys over and they werent supposed to be and marsha came home early and they had to jump out of my bedroom window and they went the wrong way and marsha almost caught us... hahah it was really funny, but I dont feel like typing the whole thing out) and my christmas tree fell on Robyn at my moms house. lol. Thanksgiving and decorating the Christmas tree has definately become our tradition though. <3<3 cant wait!!
My job is going pretty good too. I get along with everyone there pretty good and I've been getting a lot of hours which = a lot of money, which I definately need for Christmas! They just hired a whole bunch of new people so it's gonna be fun working with a whole bunch of different people! Oh yeah and James got a job at my job too. hahah I haven't worked with him yet, but thats definately gonna be interesting. I got him to cover my shift tomorrow night so I can go to brandon's house and stay the night so I dont have to try to get there early sunday morning. I'm SO glad he could do it, I love you james!! haha
My moms birthday was the other day too and I took her out to dinner at Cracker Barrel to celebrate it. I <3 Cracker Barrel. I'm also paying for her to get her hair permed, so shes excited about that. I can't wait either, I think it'll look really pretty on her:)
I also found this place that does piercings for 30$ and its really good (and legal), so I'm excited about that. I've seen their work and they do a really good job. I want to go get my tongue and bellybutton done there soon since its so cheap, but I dont know since Christmas is coming up and thats where pretty much all my money is going too. I guess we'll see. I also wanna get my nose done for Brandon a few weeks before he gets out because hes been wanting me to do it for soo long and I dont think it'll look so bad. It'll sorta be a present for him too. I always wanna get something else pierced with Robyn for Brandons birthday, but we'll keep that one on the downlow. haha you know what i'm talking about robyn ;)
I'm not too sure what I'm doing this weekend besides seeing Brandon Sunday morning and a meeting for work Sunday night. I'm waiting for Renee to call me back cause me her and Cody are probably gonna chill tonight. We were thinking about going to a party, but we might end up going to a club with Dave or something. This is the first friday night I've had off from work in a long time and I dont know what to do with myself! lol. Hopefully it'll be fun though. But anyways, I'm gonna be down in altamonte this weekend so hit me up if you want to chill while im there. 4074156944. I definately want to see a lot of yall again.
Well I dont have much else to write and my computer is being a pain in the ass so I'm out. I'll definately be posting after I see Brandon! <3
