Well, so much has happened in the past couple of weeks and I feel it is my duty to fully update everyone and to do that in the most efficient way is to blog about it. So here we go...
I put my two weeks notice in at my Design job this past Friday. To do what you ask? Well, most of you know by now but I'll reiterate anyways. I'm moving to Florida in September. There are a lot of reasons for this move and honestly its been on the back burner for quite some time so it was inevitable to say the least. My dad is there which is the number one reason, I love my dad. He's my best friend, my father and my role model. He inspires me, makes me think, makes me laugh and always helps to put me in a place in my life that will eventually lead to greatness. How does he do this? By being wise and understanding. On top of that, my grandparents, who also live there, are not in the best physcial health that they should be. That combined with the store they're trying to take care of I really felt it was the least I could do to take a year off and basically go down there and help out. The perks are that I'm going to pull myself out of the debt that I've found myself sliding into due to a crap salary, chicago's cost of living and my apparent need to eat. And lets not forget the weather! No more snow. I'm excited. Are you excited? You should be, because now everyone has a place to visit. Plus my dad lives right next to the water and hopefully will be getting a boat soon. He's actually got in mind to buy a houseboat and the two of us just live on that. You will not see any complaints on my end if that goes through. I love the water!
Ok....so, seeing as how I"m not leaving till September I need to get a job that will allow me to enjoy my summer (mainly the beach) make some really good money and have fun. So I'm going back into bartending. I'm actually bartending right in Wrigleyville so with cubs season this is huge. I can't wait.
Now to the main event. I have a boyfriend. A real, official, sweet, caring, totally sexy boyfriend. Boyfriend, boyfriend, boyfriend. Sorry, I had to do that. That word is still pretty foreign to me. Gotta get used to it. I'm really happy too. The kind of happy where in the middle of the day, for no apparent reason, I'll just blush and start grinning. People probably think I'm high. And I giggle, like a school girl. It's refreshing it really is. I forgot what this feels like. And, thanks to my BF Shells, he knows that I am moving and we discussed it, sort of briefly, this weekend. And, while I know he doesn't want me to move, he still wants to be with me so we're going to see how the summer goes. Only time will tell.
So as of right now, that is where I am at. Changing jobs, finding an incredible guy, looking forward to an amazing summer and my upcoming move. I'm definitley floating along on that cloud 9 that everyone talks about. There's room for more, so jump aboard. :)
