My Life

Wow, it has been almost two months since I updated here. Cory finished basic and graduated with the Academic Award of Excellence. My Sailor is so smart. He is now in Groton, CT and is starting sub school in the next week or so. Sub school is only 8 weeks long, but then his A school is also in CT and is nearly 10 months long. So I guess I am on my own for a while.

My trip to Chicago to see him graduate was wonderful. We spent the first day in the city doing a ton of site seeing things. We went to the aquarium, the museum of history and also the planitarium. We took the ferry from the Navy peir to the other side of town. The second day we spent in. It was so hot outside, so when we checked into the hotel room we just hung out there. We went to I-Hop for lunch (mmm...pancakes) and then Outback for dinner. The last day we went back into the city in the morning, we ate breakfast in the city and then saw the Broadway show Stomp. It was awesome.






I guess that is it for now. I promise that I will try to update more often. :)

So, it looks like I am married to a Sailor. Cory is in Jacksonville right now at MEPS getting sworn into the US Navy. We are so excied about this. I will post our itinerary when I talk to Cory later, but for now, that is our only update. :)

Here are some pictures from our big day. :) Enjoy.

I finally got my MRS. Cory and I got married this morning at 9:00am. It was just the two of us at the county courthouse. We were married by a Justice of Peace. It was lovely. Our family will find out in due time. We have done what is best for us. I love him.

I am so sorry that I suck at updating this thing. I am going to try to give you a bit of an update right now:
I am busy working with Brandy today; however, I will be done at noon and Cory will be getting back from the vet office at about 1:30. I love hanging out with him. We are picking up our paychecks early tomorrow so we can pay rent on time. :( I hate money. The animals are all wonderful. I converted our huge walk in closet into a cat room. They love it. There is some cleaning up that needs to be done around the house. I had every intention on taking out the trash this morning, but that was before Sadie was let out to puke, with me in a towel, and my neighbor walking his shepard who Sadie has fought in the past. I was in my towel and robe for that ordeal. Needless to say, the trash did not get taken out this morning. I think I am going to take a nap when I get home and then Cory and I will hang out all day!! I got another dog for the rescue. My friend Mollie turned over her English Bulldog Tyson. She was too nervous about him with the baby. Oh well. School is going ok. I took a test on Saturday during adoptions and get an 80% on it. Not too bad for someone who read only the first 3 pages of the text. Cory and I will be going to the court house tomorrow to fill out the marriage license and then next Wednesday we are actually signing it at the court house. I am really excited about that. My friend James is going to take pictures for us afterwards at Kanapaha Botanitcal gardens. :) Have I mentioned that I offically hate money? It runs everything. Moving on, my Dad's birthday is today: Happy Birthday Daddy, and mine is tomorrow. How exciting. Well I guess that is everything. I need to get off so I can write up some kind of case notes for work so I can actually get paid tomorrow. Got to love work! Blah.

Have a wonderful day.

I will post a real entry soon, but I am just not feeling it right now. Enjoy this.

Sounds like fun to us!

Well I am just in a pretty sad mood tonight. Yesterday Cory and I went out to this woman's horse farm. She has 16 horses and 21 acres. On her land she had an itty bitty trailor that she doesn't use, so we prompted her about if she would be willing to rent it out. She got really excited about it, as did I, but she said that she would have to go talk about all this with her mom since this is her land and everything. I said wonderful. Meanwhile, I am extremly excited about ti since it would be a spectacular opportunity for us to move out of our apartment. She (Peggy) was saying how she had always thought about renting it out, but never got around to doing the repairs on the place. Cory and I both agreed that we would come out there and help with whatever needed to be done. We figure that if this all works out we will have really cheap rent, and we would also be able to work some of the rent off helping around the farm.

So everyone who knows me knows that I am super excited about this already. Today I gave her a call to decide when to go down and talk to her mom about it. We decided on Monday, but she just did not seem as enthusiastic about it as she did on Wednesday. It totally bummed me out. I so badly want this. I am also looking for other trailors that are in better condition and maybe talk to her mom about moving it onto the property with the hookups. Maybe she would then let us live there rent free and I would just give her the trailor when I moved out.

Peggy also said today that she did not know how expensive all the repairs are going to be. So on Monday we will have to sit down and try to figure out some numbers. Maybe it just might be cheaper to get a newer trailor that is in better condition. We will have to consider that as an option as well. There is so much that needs to go into this, and I think I am just getting nervous that it will fall through. I think the reason that I am so nervous about it, is because at the same time I am beyond excited if this will work out. She knows about all the cats, and the dog and she is perfectly fine about it, I mean this is a farm, lol. Just everyone keep us in your prayers. I would love (LOVE) for this to work out.

Another thing that I got super bummed about today was the idea of losing one of my animals. I mean I have 6, which are just the center of my world. But as happy as they make me know, it will just crush me when one of them goes. I cannot imagine any of my babies passing. I love them all so much. I just do not think I am strong enough to lose one of my babies. I love them all.

Happy Tuesday everyone.

I am working with Brandy now at SFCC. I was suppose to work with Miracle at 4, but her mom canceled. She has some kind of meeting so Sean will be with the kids today. It will nice to be home at 4, except for the fact that Cory is working. :(

I will be home all alone, and Gilmore Girls is not even on! Cory downloaded Tristan and Isolde for me. Beth said that it was wonderful, just as good as The Notebook. Can you believe it? Well I will post a followup after the movie today. I am excited that now I have my evening to watch it. :)

I am going to start some good walks with Sadie. When I get home today (after Oprah), I am going to try taking Sadie for a 45 minute walk. This is something that Ceaser Milan (the dog whisperer) recommends. I will see how this helps her behavior for this evening. I am busy trying to plan Keri's birthday present, as well as my Mom's suprise party. We figure there are about 50 people that we are inviting. It should be awesome.

My dad is taking my mom away for the weekend, and they will be back on March 12, which is when the party is being planned for. We are planning on a salad from Crispers as well as sandwhiches. We will of course have Bru's wings, and some homemade meatballs. I need to get that recipe. I need to get a hold of my dad so I can figure out if we will be setting up tables outside. I think that would be nice. I could rent some table cloths and make some flower center pieces. I also need my dad to check out the audio stuff to make sure it is working. I think I am going to have Chris Botti's CDs playing.

Let me know if anyone has any advice.
