Congrats to R&B

Just a little shout-out post to my brother, Ryan and his fiance, Bridget! They just got engaged on Christmas day, and are getting married this August in Boston. I'm sooo excited!! Not only is it going to be an awesome wedding, but it gives us an excuse to do some traveling to the east coast. And yes, I will be in the wedding, along with my younger brother (the Best Man!) and Bridget's two sisters. I can't wait!!

Congratulations you two!! :) xoxo,

YAAY!!!!!!!!!*(&^#@(^*****

This just in! Jose is officially DONE with his internship!!!!!
For the past few months (since October), he has been doing a paramedic internship (night shift), and that coupled with his regular work shift (which is also at night) caused him to be away from me and working every.single.night! But he found out this morning that the internship is over and he passed with flying colors!! AND in about 3 weeks he will go back to working days! What does this mean you ask? It means I get my husband back! Woot woot! I could not be more excited :)

Now he just has to study a lot and pass his the national registry test and he will officially be a paramedic :) But I think this was definitely the most challenging thing, and we were BOTH seriously at our wits end and wondering how much longer we could do this... It's hard being apart every night, espesh as newlyweds! But now he's back and I am elated. Jose, I love you and I am so proud of you!!!!

This is why I never kept a journal

I still have all of my journals from when I was in middle school and high school, and I can tell you right now, they are FULL of entries that begin with "Wow, it has been about 3 months since I've written!" and eventually they all sort of trail off about mid-journal. Such is this blog, and such is my life... BUT it is a new year (I'm a little late in saying that, aren't I?) and I DO really want to write and keep this whole blog thing going, so I will TRY and make the effort :) My goal is to blog about at least SOMETHING once a day... The funny thing is, I am always thinging of blogs I want to write, and saying to myself "I need to blog about that!" But at the end of the day, I never do... But seeing as how I always find myself going online for at least a 1/2 an hour every night, I figure I should be able to post regularly :)

You also may notice the little face lift I have given my blog. Thought? I really want to incorporate my family more (aka my hubby, Jose), so I have decided to give this blog a more personal title :) So everyone, please welcome Jose to my blog! Eventhough he probably will never write on here, and who knows how much he checks it :P
