Why don't I feel beautiful anymore?

Yesterday Brian and I "celebrated" 9 months of togetherness. Came home after a very long very hard day to flowers and a card that almost made me cry. I love that boy.

We've/he's decided to put the house up for sale soon. We want to find a nice place in Saint Clair Shores. Soon as I'm done with school I want another little addition to our family. Brian wants an all white female English Bulldog--I want a little brown Dachshund named Trixie...we'll see.

Money is being put away and saved for the many things on our wish list. The things we still need for the present house are curtains and an entertainment center. All things come in time I suppose :)

I love life
I love my family
I love my man
I love my friends
I love my puppy

New Years

Tue, 03 Jan 2006 16:05:35 GMT

New years Eve: Went to Bri's Grandparents house and had a little get together with his family.. I am finally starting to feel like one of them--no more awkwardness..yay. Left there to go home. Jenna and Matt were supposed to come over for a rockin' game night but after 32 billion calls--no show. BUT while at Meijer Brian noticed they had Friends Scene It.
So the night was spent sipping wine, cuddling on the floor, kissing at midnight, and then going to bed. Lame? Nope, best new years ever :)

New Years Day: Off to his parents to visit his cousin that was in from the Navy--she's a total sweetheart. The Nicole, Jenna, Matt, Brian, Steve, and myself gathered around the livingroom for some Outburst and Taboo. Girls against guys--girls came out on top most of the night. :) Jenna and Matt brought a peace offering of alcohol and one of those giant cookies where they had best buds with a yes or no piece that could be eaten out of it. It was way cute. So after a few hours of games, interesting conversations were held over a nice thing of Taco Bell.

Great Night :)

Awake again...ugh.
Kevin called plastered
Talked to Nicole while she was wasted
Both interesting conversations.

The last eight months have seemed like a lifetime and yet seemed like yesterday. I've become who I wanted to. I have my man beside me every night. I have my close friends that I will not lose contact with.. and unfortunately I also have a 22 year old son. When Bri and I move, hopefully Steve will go back to living with their parents. *fingers crossed*.

I really wish I had a job. I wish I didn't need to be on my dad's insurance. To be on my dad's insurance, I have to be a full time student..to be a full time student.. I have to work my ass off.. which makes it very hard to get a full time job where they are going to offer me insurance. It's a viscious cycle.

Apparently my brother wants to get married in the Spring. They put out a pretty good offer. Ryan and Liz would pay for me and her sister Katherine to join them on their 5 day cruise and then Bri and Katherines boyfriend would pay their way. That's a great deal on my end. I would get to see my brother get married and spend 5 beautiful days just the 6 of us. Never been on a cruise..could be fun.

For whatever reason I've been thinking back to high school lately. Would things have been different if I was then how I am today? Would I have wanted them to be different?

I have come to appreciate my mother a hell of a lot more since I "moved out". I want to be just like her.

Okay, enough rambling. Time to attempt sleep.

Happy 8 months to me =)

..oh yeah, brian too

So.. It's 4a.m. and I cannot fall into an unconscious state of mind. Something bothers me but I'm not sure what. Tears fall from my eyes but I am not sure why. Is it what I've learned? Is it the lessons that I've learned throughout the years? Why is it that when you think you've done away with something, it bears its ugly head? I've banished it from my thoughts but on this night it holds me prisioner.

...I don't know

I'm getting scared. I have to have my lower back looked at. A year and a half of pain? At 19 years old? I'm going to call a doctor today. The chiropractor didn't help. Surgery? I hope not....

This was fun...

Jenna and I had a scrapbooking day yesterday--always good times to make a mess so big it takes more time to clean up than it does to do the work. 4 hours, 2 pages, and 2 Christmas cards later, the perfectionists were finished. Who can't ever find anything because the mess is too big?...me.

Today marks month 7 for Brian and I. I woke up to a note this morning that said "I love you with my whole heart, I want you by my side forever. You're my babygirl. You're so beautiful. 7 months. Darn near cried. When it comes to rocky relationships, we're a freshly paved road with very few pebbles. He's my knight in shining armor, my Prince Charming, my dream come true.

Back at the gym again. Won't let myself slack off anymore. I gained too much weight and it's all coming back off.

P.S it's 53 degrees in the house right now...

To and old friend: I missed you. We're so different that we're alike. The good times are still to come ;) We'll be making scrapbooks, cards, and having game nights for many years to come. <3 you.

Help!

I was going through my Microsoft Word 2003 text book today.

What do I see?

Half a picture of a woman spreading herself apart...the rest of the picture is cut off.

Curious I went to the website.. yep.. a butt hole and a vagina are in the other half that did not print out.

He doesn't even know how to print porn right...(not brian, his brother)

I taped a note to the door that said "This is not why we bought the printer..." and then taped the two failed attempts at a printed out vagina/butthole.

Brian laughed, I laughed, Steve was embarassed.

Thu, 20 Oct 2005 17:03:09 GMT

So I've been dying on the couch for the last two days. My Nicole came and visited me yesterday :):):) and we played golf while Hooch napped on her leg.

Took puppy back to the vet so he could get the stitches taken out of his eyes. Poor little guy.

Off to his grandmas to see everyone and play with little Dylan

Off to my house for some dinner.

Home to sleep.

Tag team partners for life. I'll always be in your corner and I will always be there when times get rough.
