where the hell have I been??

Two months??

Where have I been.. Ugh jeez I don’t think any f you really want the answer to that. But I am back, and I am looking for inspiration. Mainly due to the hustle and bustle that has been my life lately.

Let’s see, quick recap.

1.  I got engaged to my lovely girlfriend.
2.  I had an amazing time on the breast cancer walk, and am soo excited to participate next year in San Diego
3.  Holiday season was great
4.  The nuthouse – UGH chaotic and, well a nut house, every day a new adventure, that’s for sure.

Ummm, lets see what else can I tell you about… not much. SO how about some details.

The wedding – its going to happen in march, the engagement happened kinda like this.. It’s a funny story really, I swear. We are sitting on the couch in our respective spots, and you know what I mean, we all have our corner that we go to and it’s just kinda our spot. She comes over, and she gets in my spot and she’s acting all needy. So I say can I help you, she takes the remote, mutes the TV and I ‘m like really??? She takes the ring box out and hands it to me and basically says, so you’re gonna marry me, right? I almost died laughing. Said yes of course, and then 5 minutes later am drinking a mimosa and planning a wedding.

The breast cancer walk- I do not know what I was thinking when I decided I would deviate from everything I know not to do and didn’t train for. I start off the morning of the walk and put glide on my feet (wild hair up my ass I guess, because I have never done it before in my life) 5 hours later and I have blisters the size of a small country on my feet. Blisters that took MONTHS to go away. The walk, as always was an inspiration, and a beautiful moment. I loved spending the time with C’s sister and getting to know her more, and I loved the stories and the experience of the 3 Day. I am blessed and grateful for everyone who helped with my walk, to get my fundraising there, to support me, and to pray for the journey.

Holidays- the usual, dinner, presents, and family. I am sure not much different than at our house.

  Obviously I didn't download them... Or I did and lost them, let's go with door number 1 for sanity's sake though.

The nuthouse – truly its an adventure. Somedays I hate it and someday’s I love it. I have to remind myself that I paid $50,000 to do this and I better like it J It’s been a hectic month at work, as expected it would be, Holiday season is winding down, orders are slowing, and the USDA pistachio contract we were awarded is almost over. Temper’s are high, and the stupid, stupid girl I work with is making it hard to not want to stab her in the eye. This week I think I had a melt down. Ok, I don’t think, I know. But I think I am on the upward swing. (More on that tomorrow).

So that’s the update. That’s where I have been, well I have been a lot of other places, this is just the trailer.

Hope life is blessed and beautiful in your world.

Xoxo
