Yea.....I love him.

Here I am sitting at Matthews house feeling so incredibly lucky.
He's a great guy and I know we haven't been together very long but we've known each other for over a year, and well.....we were talking marriage with Tara last night, and we both know this is it. I do love this guy a lot. he's amazing, and he'll do anything for me. I had a very busy week. I worked 12 days and 16 shift in a row so I was ready for a day off, and to drink last night woot woot. It was a fun halloween party until ryan trying to beat ass...but he does that and we all know and love him for it. lol. I had so much fun. but the conversations at the end of the night in the basement was the high light. I love the good conversations with Tara those are the things memories are made of. lol.
Matt and I have been laying around all day....or okay let me rephrase that I've been laying around all day. we went to church and then after church we went to my parents house so my dad could help Matt with his accounting homework. We walked in the living room and Matt spotted the Hulk dvd so he got all little dorky kid excited and we had to watch that movie first. so I layed on the couch and kinda fell asleep during the movie. then I layed on the couch and fell asleep again while my dad was helping him with his homework, and now we are back at his place laying on the couch with a fire going in the fireplace and watching CSI. it's a perfect sunday.
I'm so happy right now. things in my life could only be better if I was able to get a car. lol. okay well I'm gonna get off here now and watch this show.

My amazing sister

So I just got home from Chicago where Matt and I went to watch my sister run the marathon. As I said in my earlier post she is an Elite runner which is a really big deal in the running world. I don't care what anyone has to say about it I always have been and always will be my sisters biggest fan. Since she was in sixth grade I've always known that she would reach her running aspirations. She's amazing and so determined and gifted. I love her so much and I'm so incredibly proud of her. Her family I will allow to come into a close second or even MAYBE as big of fans of hers as I am. ;) All morning on the train I was so nervous for her...Matt kept telling me to calm down and that she's going to do great....and she did.
She was in her 14th mile she was 18th overall, and on her goal pace...my last updated text me said she was on track for a 2.46 time (two hours and fourty six min) her goal this year was to be in the top twenty overall....you have to remember thousands upon thousands of people run in this marathon every year...thats a pretty heft goal and she was right on track for it. but in her 14th mile she started to have a hard time breathing her asthma was kicking in....and it became an issue of health and she had to make the hard decision to drop out. But that didn't matter...she knew she made the right decision for her body...and it doesn't change the fact that she is one of the fastest marathoners in the nation....(don't be modest annie). She got to the medic tent for an inhaler treatment and the medic told her that her heart rate was only in the seventies but her respitory was twice what it should be. he was shocked at what great shape she is in.
My sister is amazing....how many people can go out there and run 14 miles at a 6:21 mile pace...let alone 26 miles...Her determination, will, passion, love, and strength will never fail to amaze me.
After the race we went to lunch with my Sister, Casey, Cooper and Will, My brother and his friend, my parents, Me, Matt and my really good friend Melissa who recently moved to chicago it was a fun brunch I guess is a better word. My family got a chance to get to know Matt and he was so excited about it. He loved them all, and Melissa and I got to catch up and she got to catch up with my family...plus I just got to spend time with my family that I don't get to see enough. After lunch Melissa Matt and I walked around chicago went in a few stores and just hung out it was a great time. I'm totally exhausted now and just wanna sit and relax for awhile.....
peace

FAJITAS

Had a pretty good day today...Work was interesting. My good friend Candi got arrested on Sunday night and missed work on Monday...no one really knew why and couldn't figure out what she could have done except for maybe a DUI well come to find out....Her boyfriend had her car out on Sunday night while she was in bed cause she was sick, he hit another car and got out of the car and took off running cause his license is suspended, and when the cops got there they ran the plates and they went back to Candi's boyfriends sister cause candi is in the processes of buying her truck off them, they gave the cops candi's number and showed up at the house to arrest her. She told them she wasn't driving and that Cecil was and they didn't believe her although they had no proof who was driving at all, they arrested her, found out she had a warrant in Fulton county for a bounced check and held her for three days til we could bail her out today.......yea pretty messed up, but anyway I got to see her today after she got out she came into work and She's doing alright.
I worked a double and we were dead. I made five bucks tonight and only had two tables totally not worth my time but i came home to Sonya and our friend Telinna doing their homework, and Sonya made us Fajitas and they were AAAWWWWEEESOOOMMMEEE...I have the best wife ever. and I did the dishes while telinna finished up her homework....and continued to finish up her homework as I did 100 ab lounges and sonya did an ab work out of her own on the couch....and then Telinna continued to finish up her homework as sonya sat at the dining room table in utter silence and when she finally finished her homework we took about a billion random pictures.
It's amazing to me how much my life has changed in a year. Mostly for the good. I do love where I live and everything but I miss my elkhart friends more than words could ever say. I never get to see you guys enough. I mean I love our little town and I love love love living so close to the lake and I love our apartment.....it just sucks I wish we could apparate to each other's houses and be there in a blink of an eye....or I could stick my head in a fire place and show up in your fireplace for a conversation.....Harry Potter had it so easy....:) okay I gotta head to bed.

ME LIKE COOKIES!!

So I text sonya today around seven thirty complaining we didn't have anything in the house to curb my period cravings....I got a text back that said and I quote, "what do you want hubby" of course as the good husband that I am I told her I didn't want her to pick anything up b/c she'd been gone all day working and going to school and I knew she just wanted to come home...well she showed up with two things of betty crocker cookies....one chocolate chip and one peanut butter so here it is ten o'clock and I just made cookies and they are amazing. Not to mention she also brought home tortilla chips and nacho cheese, and chili cheese fritos. So she walkedin the door and ate all the left over spaghetti, chips and cheese, then two cookies, then chili cheese frito's she's so damn lucky....anyway my cookies are amazing. And I love that we are making them this late. :) lol these are the days of my life that I am glad to be alive. :)

Things are GGGGRRRRREEEAAAAT

Okay i'm trying to get the hang of this thing...Sarah is on the phone I said I need blog spot help and she was very exasperated by that comment. I love her she's funny...so to hell with it i'm just gonna start writing now.

Things in my life are going so well. My job is going great I'm having a blast there and my living situation couldn't be better. I have a roommate that I love and we get along great. I LOVE our place its right by the lake and it's so pretty.

My friends are amazing and I love them all dearly. I've made it to elkhart the past three weekends and i've gotten to spend time with Tara and Ryan and Dan and Amanda thats been nice. But of course the best part of why things are so great is my new boyfriend. Matthew Jessie. He's great. yea he's only 21 but he's far more mature than I am. He just bought a house in South Bend and he's almost done with school. He's so good to me. And unbelievably sweet. When I first told Tara about him her first words were "so you're gonna try dating a nice guy for once" lol but it's true he's amazing. I know it's the "honeymoon" stage, and we have only been dating for a few weeks....but he's definitly different than any other guy i've ever been with. And the biggest plus all my elkhart friends love him. lol

We are going to Chicago to watch my sister run the chicago marathon on Sunday. She was invited this year. One of only three American woman who were invited to run. All expenses paid. she gets a five min. head start so she doesn't have to fight with the men for position, she's so excited and i'm so excited for her. She's in the top 15 elite American marathoners now...Yea I'm a bit proud. but anyway okay well I have things I need to do....

UGH!!!!

Okay this thing is really pissing me off. I can't get it so I can add tara but I can add sarah. I don't know how this damn thing works someone help me out.
