what i've been up to..

For what it's worth: it's never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you're proud of. If you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again. -Benjamin Button

So lately this has quote has really reminded me of well...me. I have realized I have changed so much since I have moved here. Sometimes it's for better, or for the worst. I have had my ups, downs, mood swings, depression moments, stress, bi-polar times, & anger issues,from realizing how much I love Jordan to realizing how bad Jordan can really piss me off, but aren't those just the cycles of marriage? Husbands sure do know how to bring out the best/worst in you. Moving & starting over is a big step in life, but I am still learning. I really do miss my family & friends back home, but I am realizing this is my life now. I am finally grown up! I have felt so much different lately. I can actually say for once though that I am proud of myself & my relationship. I know without Jordan I would not have anything because I was never motivated before. He gives me strength I never knew I had before. & no our marriage is NOT perfect but that's why you have to communicate, which is something that is hard for us to do right now, but we're working on it & it's really improving. At first it was hard to live with him, he did things that drove me absolutely crazy! Example: LEAVING THE TOILET SEAT UP. Anyways, our marriage is becoming pretty strong. The number one thing you need in a relationship is...trust? Honesty? Being Forgiving/Understanding? Respect? WRONG. God is the number one thing you need in a relationship. Without him, in my opinion, a relationship will never work. Put him first. Pray everyday. Have faith.

On another note, college has started! I thank God & Jordan for this opportunity everyday. I completed my first exam. I love it so far & can't wait for my career to begin.

Purchases of the Week:
Jordan finally bought me my Keurig!!! I LOVE IT! We also got a George Foreman Grill for Jordan. Jordan thought it would be a good idea to buy clippers so I can cut his hair so we can save money. I shaved his head, it looks good, as for Kujo hahahaha that's another story. We also got a queen sized bed with a foam mattress topper, which is AMAZING! We got internet & Netflix too. Things are finally settling & we're happy campers!
