Over-Stressed over the "Little Things"??

So, I've decided to write about a particular comment because it's bugging me! (Thus probably proving the comment to be true...but that is besides the point!) The comment was that I tend to over-worry and over-stress the little things and make them bigger issues than what they really are. I don't understand where I have done that though! I have been stressed, I won't lie, BUT ANYONE in my position would be just as stressed and so called "over-reacting" in my position...and I brought this VERY valid point up in our conversation. Let me give you an idea of what I'm facing: Work stress at current job while trying to apply for new job in the UK, while trying to come up with the money to move while trying to pay bills while trying to root through stuff to sell while also trying to give away my dog who I have had for over 5 years and is like my kid....I could literally keep going! Im doing all of this by myself and ALL for the sake of being with the person I really want to be with! I just feel like with all the work and sacrifice I was putting in, it was a little insensitive to basically be-little my feelings or reactions. I know I over stress, worry, think, etc. But in this case, I think I'm completely justified!...I don't know, maybe I'm wrong. It's just how I feel right now though and wanted to vent out.

In other news (since I don't think I have had time to catch the world up on my happenings!) I applied for a job with Staples (yes the office supply store company) to take a marketing/business developement job in the UK. I started out super excited about this opportunity, but I find that excitment waining because honestly, I don't think I'm going to get it, and I would rather minimize the dissapointment at this time, emotionally, I just don't need another blow. But I honestly think if I don't get it, it will be because I'm kind of a gamble for them, and much harder to get over there and started. They REALLY want to see me in person which I cannot financially do. So, I think they find it easier to hire a local or atleast a local American if not me. Its a little sad I guess. I just want the peices to fall in place and make sense, but most of all, I really don't want to do this major thing alone. I feel like a lot of my major events I end up doing alone, and that's not the Britt's fault, it's not like there is a ton he can do from across the pond, but it still sad that I feel like I have to do it alone you know?

I feel bad, I feel like all my news is downer news! My life really isn't that bad, it's just a mini-chapter I need to get through right now. All I can say is "come what may..." Life always has a funny way of working out for the better anyways! ;)

Live, Laugh, Love!

It's Been Over a YEAR!!

Last I wrote, I had just moved into my current rental and was getting ready to start an temp job that turned out to be a complete and utter nightmare and end as quick as it began! Thankfully, not a month later I was able to find what is my current job and I can proudly say I have been working out for over a year now with potentials of a promotion and raise! (More details to follow, I don't want to jinx myself just yet, so if you are reading this, please send out all the positive vibes, say a prayer, lots of love and care as this girl could use the boost! Not only would this job be a great step in the right direction for me and my career, it would also put me back on a schedule that I painfully crave to have as my current schedule is a nightmare! Don't get me wrong, my job is good and pay AMAZING...Buuuuttt...The hours are ever changing from day-to-day and week-to-week that its hard to have anything of a life much less see my hubby who is working a lot of hours as well. This ...

Better Things to Come?

So, I have officially packed, unpacked, arranged sorted, decorated, re-decorated (and so forth!) the new home!! YAY!! I absolutely LOVE the new house! It's a great size, not too big, not too small and very cozy! I honestly can see us living here for a long time! (As long as the neighbors aren't crazy! Haha!). It's a semi-dettached home with 3 bedrooms 1 full bathroom and one half bathroom. A nice little living room, dining room and kitchen as well as a back yard with a nice little porch! We have neighbors to our right and left, but none behind us, so we shouldn't bug too many people! I think the best thing about this home is that we have really been able to feel like we could settle into it and really make it our "home". Not just a "house" but a "home". I'm just so pleased beyond words! 2nd good news (and perhaps a start to better things to come!) is that I was asked to work a temp job that starts tomorrow morning! I will work with the...

Annual Update!

So I am the queen at updating this blog once a year! I don't mean to neglect, but it's just been so busy for me! Life certainly keeps me on my toes these days! Big events that are worth noting for the past year: -Bought a house! It's a lovely three bedroom detached house that I can call my own, hide in to get away from the world. Decorate any way I want and fill with love! I couldn't be happier here and have really settled in well! -Got a dog! He's a year old now and named Mack. Mack is a gorgeous black lab puppy with the most loving personality and the energy of 20 kids hyped up on sugar! He is the sweetest and most exhausting little guy, but he is my baby! Here is my warning for when you visit: Beware of dog, he does not hold licker well! Haha! I love that he makes me a more active person. I walk him daily and play with him when I would probably otherwise just sit on my backside and watch TV. So he's awesome all around. -I am officially a UK CITIZEN!!! Wh...
