Fort Wayne, IN 46835

^^That's part of my new address! =] (Of course I wouldn't put the whole thing on the internet, that would be silly!) =p

So I have been here for about 4 days now and I still don't feel like I LIVE here yet. I still feel like I am going to wake up in a few days and think, I need to go home, or I need to go back to work or something like that. Its weird!

Speaking of work, my first day was last night.  I worked a 1-9:30 on my first day. Its a much bigger city, and it is in a HUGE mall. They are a 1.5 Million dollar store, the one I came from, in a small town, strip mall store, trailing 700K, that's a huge difference.  I was expecting the store would be slammed yesterday but it was more like Brownsburg slow. HAHA I straightened the heck out of that store, and it needed it.  I never considered myself a neat freak until I was in a messy environment. HAHA but it was all good, they are really really busy 90% of the time, and don't always get to straightening. I guess its good that I'm there! =p My next shift is tomorrow3-close again, so hopefully it will be faster-paced. I'm ready to take on this challenge.

Bristol seems to be doing alright. She's been acting a little weird since we got here on Saturday, but I think pretty soon she'll realize she's home! Last night, Brandon got home from work a few hours before me, so he took her for a walk, and then when they got back he started working on the 'stay' command. I worked with her on it before, but I could only get her to stay for about 5 seconds. Brandon got her to stay for about 20 seconds! She's doing a lot better! We go on a lot of walks though.  Since she can't really run around the place like she used to at the parents' house, I take her out a lot, and I can tell you I have DEFINITELY seen a difference in her attitude. Its soo much better!

I need to go to the post office today to get my mail forwarded, and go get my engagement ring resized/fixed, because a diamond fell out. =[ I also need to be here though in case the maintenance guys come to fix the bathroom sink (there's no water pressure) and then the bathtub drain (it doesn't drain very well.. we stand in about 4 inches of water when we shower, gross.)

Well, anyway, I hope you all have had a wonderful time hearing about my life, and I hope you all have a wonderful day! <3

Its the final countdown.

I know I haven't written anything in a long time, sorrrry. Not that anyone reads this anyway! HAHA

But a lot has gone on since last time I wrote.  This is my last week living in Hendricks County! I am so excited to be moving up to Fort Wayne this weekend! Mom and Vic are going to come up with me to see the apartment, and maybe show them around town a little bit! I am really excited for them to see it! I thought mom was going to have to work this weekend because Megan, their fill-in girl, doesn't like to work weekends... even though that's kind of all she's there for.

But that's exciting!

This is my last week of school too! I have class tonight, I have to turn in a binder (that's my final), and then I'm done! Tomorrow night I will be done with my Office class, and then Friday I am done with my math class! Then Saturday I will be on my way up to my apartment!

I'm really sad to leave work. =[  I have two more shifts left! I am going to miss the girls there! It was so nice working with people that I could be friends with. Love you guys!

Anyway... I interviewed in the FW store to transfer up there, and I found out this week that I got the job.  I am getting less hours and less pay, but it'll be ok for now. I just can't spend ANY money until I get a second job. I hope I can find a full-time job!

Brandon started his new job! He is doing really well!  And he really likes it. He is doing training for the next couple weeks but after that he gets to actually do the call center thing. So that'll be nice.

I took Bristol up with me last week so the apartment. I also left her there with Brandon so he wouldn't be lonely but she needed a haircut and to get the rest of her stuff. But she'll be going up with us this weekend for good! And speaking of getting her hair cut...


Beetle before...

And after.
She's so cute! <3

Well, I need to go get some stuff ready for class, shower, and get some more stuff packed. We are getting internet on saturday at the apt, so I will be able to post some pictures when I get up there!
