EIGHT MONTHS! Lets catch up!

It's seriously been eight months since my last post! lol wow that's sad! But a lot has happened in that time too! I've moved from Minnesota to Missouri, where I am currently living with my boyfriend. I miss my friends and family a lot but we talk all the time and I'll get to go home and see them in a couple of weeks <3!

I have also begun a "new" job. I transferred from the store I worked at to the one down here. It's a lot bigger, there's more employees and the pace is several times faster than what I was used to before. But I am learning to keep up quickly! I love the challenge. Also this place may have more employees, but it also has next to no drama which is really great. Also, my boss at this new store is firm but not in an intimidating way. I like her a lot and really respect her. There isn't one new coworker that I dislike, they're all really great people, and that's hard to find, especially when you work in retail.

There's been a down side as my boyfriend has been out of work so money's been tight. But we're living and we're doing what we have to to get by. We're happy, I'm happy with him. After the time we've been living together I can't imagine my life without him lol.

A couple days after I moved my sister Cassandra had her baby.. FINALLY!!!! A beautiful baby boy they named Leo. I am so depressed that I haven't gotten an opportunity to meet him yet. His older sister Rory is my god daughter, and though I'm not technically his, I still feel as if I am. Every time I think about him I think about how unfair it is that everyone else has gotten to see him and hold him, and I still haven't. It really makes me cry.

Still I get to go home every couple of months and I'll get to meet him finally when I go home for Rory's second birthday in August. I'll be okay until then!

I got some great news back in April before I moved. My big sister if pregnant. It's a complicated thing, but she's going to be a great mommy. She's due in December, which means that I am going to be an aunt 3 times by the end of the year! I can't wait to find out the gender so I can make a baby blanket for her! She insists it doesn't have to be gender specific but she done'st understand the meaning it has to me to make it that way. This is about more than just the baby. It's about her and it's about me as the creator and my gift to that precious little one that she's bringing into the world. Oh well, she doesn't have to get it I guess, as long as I do that's what matters.

Lets see, what else is there? OH!! Found out this week that my parents found a new house. They get to move in on September First, which means that while Jay and I are home the last weekend of August they'll be enlisting us to help move things. The nice thing is it is a four bedroom. They'll have a room, My sister will have a room, my uncle will have a room, and I don't know if they'll use the 4th room for the baby or for guests or whatever, but I do know my says Jay and I can have ti whenever we come home so that makes me happy.

I've been sick a lot in the last month and a week or so since I've been here. We've undergone a MASSIVE heat wave since the 4th day I've been here. Not a single day under 90 degrees, and the humidity is about 10% worse than back home... i got really sick twice in the first 2 1/2 weeks.. since then I've been better but my nose will NOT stop draining. *bangs her head on the wall*

Well things are going pretty good then if that's the worst of my problems right? HAHA!

Alright that's about all I've got right now. I'll be sure to post more! Laterz!
