First Blog!!

Ok, so we all know that life isn't a fairytale; at least my life isn't. But isn't life about dreams, love and wanting our own "Happily Ever After". If it wasn't for the bad luck, then I wouldn't have any luck at all. I am blessed in life though. I have a wonderful husband, Andrew. We married August 9, 2008 at Quantico Marine Corps Base. I had all those who mean the most to be there with me. I have a beautiful 9 year old daughter. She is amazing and is one of the reasons for each breath I take; granted, there are times she takes it away with the stuff she does! (Good and bad! LOL!) I adore her though. I have a step-son, Gavin, who is 8. He's a very smart and cute kid. I'm adjusting to being a step-mom; it's hard at times. Ashley & Gavin are so different in so many ways! But I love them both. My parent's are amazing people; mom is my bestfriend! I'd be lost without her in my life.

We have a beautiful home out in the country in Spostylvania. I love it out there! It's nice and quiet, the kids enjoy the all most 4 acres we have to play in. You can see the stars at night and hear the birds chirping; and the deer enjoy eating my rose buds every time they are about to open! LOL!

I do love my life for the most part. Right now though, I work full-time for the local paper and at night I'm delivering the same paper. I feel like all I do is either work or sleep! I don't get to spend the time I used to with Andrew or the kids. I'm at that cross road in life of trying to figure out what I want to do with myself as far as a carreer. I make ok money for working in town; however, it's not enough and I will never be able to go any where in the company. It's pretty much a dead end job. And I'm getting burnt out. I want to go back to school for nursing, but I don't think we can afford it right now. I don't know; I have a lot of thinking to do. I would like to get back into the medical field though. I honestly enjoyed it!

I have learned to not take anything for life for granted. Of course I say this now but I'll get frusterated at Andrew later when he wants to love on me and I just want to go to sleep! Or when Ashley is making entirely to much noise at home; but then I miss her when she's not there. Always tell those you love; that you love them! You nor I, never know when the last time it is we may be able to see that person again!

Love & Hugs to you all! *MUAH*
