I'm Officially Married!!

Phew! What a wonderful past week! My heart is glowing and there's a permanent grin on my face today!

I can't remember what I've posted in the past (I didn't look) so I will start with last Friday! Logically, I've been itching to make some friends and Friday night the one girl friend that I have right now invited me to go out with her and two others for a night in the town! Though they said it wasn't the best of all nights out there, I had a great time! One, because I was out with people and not alone! Two, because it was interesting to view the people and get a sense of things and so forth. It was just refreshing to get out and feel a part of something!



Our wedding ceremony went great! Before the ceremony, we invited everyone over to the apartment for mimosa's (I didn't have any, I was too busy running around trying to get ready!) then we went off the the registrar office to have the ceremony, which I thought for a small short ceremony that it went wonderfully! We played our music, we took pictures, a few of us (including me!) teared up during our promises and poetry (which I will post in the next blog!). After the ceremony, we went to this really cute cottage hotel and restaurant and had loads of wonderful food and drinks and just overall fun company! Though it was a pretty low budget wedding and there weren't many people, it could not have been any better for me! My only regret was that my parents weren't there, but I will see them soon in June! It was perfect and intimate and meaningful!

My hubby and took the next two days off of work and we relaxed did a few errands (more paperwork to change my last name for my marriage visa) before he had to go back to work and just enjoyed each others company. Today, he's back at work and I'm home relaxing. I think I'm catching a cold, so I'm just trying to kick back and re-coop and taking my vitamins trying to fight it off! (Thankfully, I've got some good supplements to fight off any sort of flu/cold bug!)

So what's next? Well, once I start working, we will be saving up for a fabulous honeymoon in the Maldives! (Look it up if you don't know about it, it's a BEAUTIFUL Island in the Indian Ocean!) They don't do legal weddings, but they do like beautiful Island ceremonies for you to remember your day and it's JUST like a wedding with cake and champagne on the beach, you get pictures, video of the ceremony, etc. It's just absolutely stunning! I would highly recommend it for a honeymoon or even just a wedding anniversary!

Thank you to everyone who has been so supportive and encouraging during this process! It has been both a hard and wonderful journey that has been worth EVERY step we have taken! It just never ceases to amaze me how God can take the sad, tragic and unfortunate situation and make a wonderful thing out of it! I'm over-flowing with awe and gratefulness!

Live, Laugh, Love.

Do you think I'm a fool?

Its funny that certain people always thought I would be just a pee on. Well, it's nice for once to see you sweating the bullets! You see, I hate being peed on, but I also know what goes around comes around and with a little bit of hard work and some good karma, all the sudden I don't seem so weak! I love how you think you can play the emotional cards on me such as "Leaving the love of family and close friends!"...What you don't realize is that I don't care...It's not that I don't care about the love of family and close friends mind you, because I do, it's that all my family and friends are completely supportive and excited for me about this, so trying to use them against me is pointless because I already have "their blessings". I've got the love and support from the people I CARE about! It's just that you think I'm impressionable and naive, but what it has come down to is that I say anything just to shut you up! You think your...

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...
