So, there have been a lot of changes in my life lately. I just thought that since it has been nearly four months since my last blog, I would take time to share them with you all. Haha.
First off, the last time that I blogged I was about to enter or had just started my Fall 2010 semester in college at school. Well, the semester is now over, the final grades are in, and I am proud to report that I have gotten all As this semester. That means 4 As on my transcript and I could NOT be happier about that. It was hard, I am not going to lie and pretend that it was easy, but it was TOTALLY WORTH IT. I now know that no matter what, I can do it. I did all of this while working a full time schedule at my job as well. Not that I had much time for anyting else, but I DID IT. Thats all that matters. Way to go, right? Um... well... sort of.
Even tought I am totally and completely proud of myself, I keep having to ask myself at what expense did I achieve this goal of straight As. I feel like I have given up SO MUCH! Basically, in the past four months, my apartment has been destroyed by my animals in one way, shape, or form. I think it is because I am hardly home long enough to spend that time and attention that I need to tend to it. Ya know? It literally is one thing after another, and I feel like I lost my closest friend. She doesn't even care about me anymore and now I know this. I tried, she tried, and yet... I look at my phone everyday and she hasn't made the effort to keep it going and maintain communication. Now, I am a firm believer that it goes both ways, but believe me, I have tried and I feel like it is her turn. And, that makes me sad. Literally, my heart is sad. I thought this was my best friend, my "bestie" forever, but I guess people change, as sad as that is and as much as I don't want to accept it.
You know, I don't want to start drama and I am not saying anything bad about anyone, I am just using it as an example of yet another way my life has changed recently. It's sad. I miss her... I wish things could go back to how they were. Truly. But, is it possible? I don't know.
What I do know is that I love my job, I love how wonderful I am doing in school, and I love my life at home and my family. I even get to see my stepson, Evan, more often now because the little bugger finally turned 3 years old. Haha. In fact, for Christmas, we are getting him almost a full week. I'm so excited. Yeys!
Bottom line, in spite of all of the changes going on in my life recently, I am still UBER happy and love my life. Not to mention that we did finally get rid of Abby, the Mastiff, and I feel like I have more control over my animals and my apartment now (even if it is one thing after the next, it would be MUCH worse with her still with us. Trust me). It's a good feeling. Life is SWEET! Love you all.
