It's been a while

Its been quite a while since I have blogged, life gets in the way of being online sometimes. 

Life has been moving in an extremely positive direction, I have fallen in love with the most amazing man, I work at a job that has enabled me to move in with this man, I have surrounded myself with some good friends and let go of the ones who weren't so good, I lost a puppy but I got a new one, I've said a bittersweet farewell to my childhood home, and everyday has been like a new adventure. 

In the last few months I have come to have a much deeper connection with my family and can honestly say that they are more than my parents but some of my closest friends and confidants. There is no better feeling then coming home from a long day and plopping down on the couch next to your mom and having a real conversation about your day and your life. I've shed a few tears in realizing that when I move in with Matt on the 2nd that I will no longer have this option, I can't get upset and cry for no reason and have my mommy to comfort me, I can't get sick and have my dad make me his chicken noodle soup, I won't be able to walk out of my room at 7:30 and eat dinner while yelling the answers on jeopardy with them. The situation makes me sad, but at the same time I am over-the-moon excited to be moving in with Matt.

When it comes to Matt I have never met anybody so loving, funny, quirky, determined, focused, scattered, creative, and amazing. The first time I met Matt I knew it would be something big for me. He scared me and excited me, I wanted t get to know this great personality and figure out his quirks, his favorite foods, his fears, and the things that made him fearless. It hasn't been exactly a cakewalk but we complement each so well it doesn't need to be. We have struggled with living just out of arms reach for nearly 8 months. He lives a 45 minute drive away so anytime I wanted to just sit and watch movies on the couch with him I had to drive and plan and push other plans, it has definitely been a struggle because he's so close but at the same not close enough. I also don't share well with others making it hard to give up any of the time I did have with him. Now I can hardly wait the 7 days until we can move into our apartment, this will be a whole new world for both of us.

I have been working my little tail off to make this big new world work for me. I have been working full-time at a real estate company for about 6 months and absolutely love it. I love the people,the business is fun, and I like the paycheck. In addition to working at the real estate company I also have been working at Bath and Body Works as part of the floor-set team. I help get the store ready when there are new products or sales. I have also been trying to up my number of babysitting clients so that I babysit at least 2 to 3 times a month. In fact I have another babysitting meet and greet this weekend. I have also been pawning myself off to the people I know as a great house sitter. I am currently house sitting for a friend of my parents. they have the cutest little pug in the entire world. They in a part of San Diego called Crest. It is up this mountain area, I have gotten up before 6:00 am every morning this week just to see the sunrise. Its the most gorgeous thing I have ever seen.this is coming from somebody who hates waking up early though, so maybe its just really seeing a sunrise for the first time . Waking up in the house has made me look ever toward my future, Someday I want to wake up on a Saturday and plop down on the couch with my dog and watch the morning music videos while I figure out what I am going to do for the day. I want to wake up tun on the coffee pot and kiss Matt good morning (yup I love him enough to endure morning breath), the dreams are small but they are mine.

So to conclude this out of character long post I will just say stay tuned for more from me! I would like to start updating more!
