Things are moving fast!

Yes Yes, it's been a minute since I've written, what can I say? It's been an interesting past few months.

I thought I got an amazing job, wrong! Damn staffing agencies. That's how I feel about that. It was pretty cool working at the UT Investment Mgmt Co. Nice office, boring people. And then checking out a few more companies.

I think God is telling me to focus on school...I'm leaving Torrid to work at Lane Bryant, yes another totally odd decision, but when you work 4 hours a week, it's not hard to leave...plus Lane Bryant gave me more. =) Yay to me. Then I found out I qualify for financial aid for the current year! Sweet, so I can definitely start school in the summer! Oh man, I'm excited and so is Greg! Volunteering is going well, although I'm worried what this Girl Scout service unit may try to give me...one gal I talked to seemed very excited about giving me quite a few tasks...but nonetheless, I'm excited. And hanging out with my "little sister" is getting better and better!

It's odd how slowly but surely things are picking up...and slowly too. I've had a few months to adjust to spending time with my little sister. Getting adjusted to a new job is not a problem. School will come this summer and in the fall, girl scouts will pick up.

And Greg and I are amazing! We've been doing more activies. We've seen Vampire Weekend, Easy Star All Stars, walked around Lady Bird Lake, gone to whole foods and cooked nice meals together. He was very sweet on our anniversary, we couldn't afford to do much, but he put so much thought into it, I could have fell in love all over again. He bought me organic roses that he hand picked, picked up some very cute cookies at a bakery, then went to Central Market to pick up dinner, we cooked shrimp, and I believe it was Red Snapper and had a salad with a fresh baguette and cheese. It was so sweet. I can't wait for the day when we celebrate 10 years, but we'll be married by then...

Life sure is different than it was a year ago. I miss my friends, but my life is moving forward. I'm finally putting education first and I'm able to, I'm making new friends and having a blast making memories. I'm actually working retail too! It's not an office job, but it's nice to have a break and not be worried about working 7 to 5. I feel this is where God wants me to be and I'm loving that. He knows best..
