For the few people who actually do read my blog, lots of things have been happening since my last post. Since the passing of my dad and the depression I was in, I am focusing on me. I try to keep busy and not think too much.

I moved to Atlanta Georgia in March to help my mom with a few things and at first, I wasn't excited. It's too hot, I have no friends and at the time, I didn't have a job. Now, I have a job I like and the people are great! It is still hot and humid but I can deal with that since I did grow up in Texas. No friends, I still don't have friends I hang out with but as my friend Mark tells me "you are a people person and can make friends wherever you go", it encourages me to think positive. I am glad I have the friends that I have to help me through a "tough" time.

I am determined to get back into school and find a job and when I moved here, that is what I did. I went to the Art Institute of Atlanta and applied to different jobs. I got into school before I had a job, which is good and bad. I am glad to get into school but was freaking out cause I don't have money to go. Well knowing that I have loved working for Bed Bath & Beyond and applied and got the job. There are so many positive things about everything. School and work are across the street from each other and I could just park my car at work and walk to school. I am excited that school starts next month and I can't wait to get my dreams started.

Chris and I are still dating. It has been a little stressful at times but I don't any relationship that isn't. He still lives in Louisiana and I am now in Georgia. It is hard not to see him whenever I want but if we can't do this now being away from each other, we won't make it if we are together all the time. This way, when we do get to see each other, it will be well worth it. We have been together 9 months and although I have seen him twice, I look forward to see him at the end of the month. I can't wait, his birthday is in two weeks and I will see him in three.. :) It may be hard to believe but I do love Christopher!
