"HELLO.....It*s Grandpaww..."

I just had to share a quick exerpt from checking my voicemail just now from my grandfather:
"HEllo, it's grandpa...I don't know if you're in Greece or Turkey or Chicken or Lobster, I just wanted to let you know I'm rooting for you wherever you are whatever you do...regards to your better half!!"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA GRAMPS

Where to begin?...


As each day passes, I look around and see fewer and fewer things in the house...as it sheds it*s belongings, I cant help but wonder why we had so much STUFF here in the first place. All that is left now are the bare essentials for me to survive these 2 weeks alone till I move...if this is all I need to get by...why do I have so much other stuff the rest of the time cluttering me??

Today Patty came over to help me pack most of the last of the stuff into the trailer...we probably picked the worst day to do so because every time we were ready to make a trip out to the trailer....thunder would crack and torrential downpours would fall from the sky...usually while we were outside holding 50 pound crates
...who am I kidding...i loved the rain...it was so much fun.

The best part of packing up was the fact that Patty changed the kitty litter box so i wouldn*t have to...words cannot express the joy that spread throughout my soul when she told me she would do it:]

Through out this whole experience, the people around me, family and friends have just blown me away with how giving they are...of their time and effort.


What else...

DJ signed the lease today for the house!! And also told me some AMAZING news the company told him today about future job opportunities...

I keep looking for job openings in all my dream fields...looks like dream alley is CLOSED at the moment...I think I have to stop looking online for a while...because it has literally driven me a little mad honestly...I*m hoping I will return to myself one day...

Dj is doing SO WELL there...I need to tooooooooo..........

First day of school (work)

My first day of training as an assistant service manager at toyota/lexus was today. The day went well and people could tell i was catching on pretty quick, even I could tell i was understanding the system more and more as the day went by. I would try to write down a bunch of the new stuff i learned today and am still going to be learning for a while, but i am typing from my phone.... I can not get the wireless to work on the computer. I do hear words from my fiancee that family is looking for jobs around this area as well?? That is pretty exciting, i miss them very much. I miss my sweet fiancee too, but she is doing great supporting me from hundreds of miles away. Knowing that i will be able to talk to her or get texts sometime along the day motivates and inspires me. The real estate lady called and told me that our new house may be ready sooner than originally planned as well!! I dont know what that really means though. It either means that we will have an empty house, or a empty house full of love if the fiancee decides to come down a couple days earliar. Ok im going to trrryyyy to fall asleep now. Night!

First night in Va with out my fiancee.

Well... im here in Va. now with a couple changes of clothes for work and some other small stuff.I miss my fiancee and family already, so hopefully time will move by quick until Miriam and the animals get here next week. I arrived here and took some of my work clothes out and ironed and hung them in the closet so they would be ready for my first week at work here in Va. I also set up my air mattress here at pauls. Sleeping on this air mattress is not going to be quite as good as it is with Miriam with me. Miss you guys!
