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 would put me back to a stable Monday-Friday 9-5 sort of gig with my weekends free again. It would give me back a life and something of normality. Trying not to put a lot of pressure and hopes on this position, but it would mean soo many positive changes for me the hubby! I'll keep you all (all three of you! haha!) posted. The other big news is that with the way things are going, we are looking at buying a house now! Well, re-state, we ARE buying a house the offer was put in and accepted. All we are waiting for now is the general regime that comes with applying for mortgages, etc. But we are SUPER stoked! Been a long 3 yrs and things seem to finally be looking the right way for us in a lot of different departments. So it only seemed right that a home would fall in line too! We are hoping to move in it come June. I'm really excited about it all. Possibilities of the job, a home that I can finally call "my own". MY very own special place, the place where I can decorate with my style, my fashion, my treasures. Its our first home together as well which really excites me. I don't know how to explain it, but it almost feels like a deepening of our marriage and relationship together...Perhaps because it's a further tie/bond together that this will bring? Aside from that, this year I have really been suffering a lot from the emotional "blahs". I'm sure it's just being tired and shutting down from all the mental and physical stress and craziness that has been my work and personal life lately. But it's really made me lazy and unmotivated. I tend to be a busy body and lately, all I have wanted to do is shut down and just be a couch potato (which I have) instead of deal with the daily things that should and need to be done (i.e. daily meditations and prayers, exercise). I have promised myself that today was my last day to be a bum and to embrace and enjoy it as tomorrow if a fresh start on to a new path. Perhaps this is the start of me establishing my goals for 2014? OK here are my goals! 1. get back into shape! Exercise and yoga daily! 2. Back to meditating, praying and studying my Bible! I'm much more balance person when spiritual parts are intact. 3. Finishing saving up all the monies needed for my new house and move! Not far left to go! 4. Get a promotion and raise! I CAN do this! 5. Get my British Citizenship as this is the year I can. 6. Pay off one debt this year. I don't care which one of the student loans or credit card, but that bitch is going down! ;) 7. Enjoy more moments, exciting or quiet, in life. I don't do that enough right now and I need to. 2014 baby! I'm going to make this MY year! Live, Laugh, Love.

Dream Dream Dream...

"Whenever I want you all I have to do is dream..." Funny the things dreams are made of. Interesting how the mind wanders, vents, releases, explores the inner depths of the mind and inner dwindling desires. For me, It seems to be 1 of 2 different outlets for me: first being Anger and pain, second being desire and longing. Both produce the same results: loneliness. Now don't go thinking that I'm all depressed and need an intervention (although maybe sometimes I do!), it's just that sometimes life knocks you hard in the butt and its difficult to keep up with the constant marathon race. Maybe my reaction isn't the best method of dealing, but I can't seem to help the constant exhaustion no matter how hard I try! I am just ready to hit that next chapter of my life you know? So, let me explain the anger dreams...I don't know why they are coming back, but it has to do with the skank that my ex cheated on me and left me for. I think a lot of the tension i...

Waiting for the other shoe to drop...

So, I think I'm in one of those stages where I feel like if I'm not careful I'm going to make a mess of things...This applies to more than 1 area by the way...work, love, friends, etc. Something weird is in the air and I'm not sure what...I just feel that if I'm not careful, it going to hurt. But then again, that could be me trying to drum up some way to keep life interesting...although, it's interesting enough as is! Been talking to the Brit a LOT like everyday since Cancun! He's coming to visit me in March...which I'm looking forward to a lot, but at the same time it makes me nervous! I haven't found anything wrong with him yet...in fact, at this point he's perfect!...The problem isn't soo much him...but the parents...I KNOW its sad I'm saying this...I'm only 3 years to my 30's and I'm worried about getting my parents "permission" like I'm a little kid...But I'm seeing that they may have an age issue...So h...

"The Lead of Love"...

"Looking back at the road so far The journey's left it's share of scars. Mostly from leaving the narrow and straight. Looking back it is clear to me, that a man is more than the sum of his deeds, And how you make good of this mess I've made is a profound mystery. Looking back you know you had to bring me through all that I was so afraid of though I questioned the sky now I see why...Had to walk the rocks to see the mountain view looking back I see the lead of love Looking back I can finally see how failures bring humility(I'd rather have wisdom and pain) Brings me to my knees (Than be a comfortable old fool)Helps me see my need for thee..." - "The Lead of Love" from Caedmon's Call. I have really been working on putting the pieces of my life back together and I think that one of the things that have been missing in my life is my spiritual growth. It's something I've been thinking and missing for some time now and think that maybe ...
