My Brag Blog

I didn't realize how negative that last blog was until I read it again. I must have been in a crummy mood when I wrote it, lol. So THIS (as requested by Marni) is my Brag blog. Trust me, I have plenty to brag about...I just managed to overlook it all earlier!

October 4th was my 2 year dating anniversary with Brian. Unfortunately, I was down with a cold so we didn't really get to do much, but he surprised me by telling me that he is going to take me to DISNEYLAND for Halloween! This wonderful man remembered a comment I made about the fact that I have never made it out to Disneyland to see it all decked out for Halloween, and decided to surprise me with a weekend trip ON Halloween. How sweet is this man?!?

It really has been the best two years of my life. I don't have to change one single bit of myself around him and can be my silly, slightly crazy, not always ladylike self. He loves me for it, and I love him even more for that. The relationship never feels like work to me, even when we don't see eye to eye. I love being with him, I love everything about him, and this two year marker felt really great. Like I've said before, I can't wait for life to hurry up and happen so I can say "goodnight" to him in person every single night for the rest of my life. :)

KITTIES!!

Layla is adjusting really well, and is getting along much better with Tawny. It was a little iffy at first, but now they even like each other enough to cuddle with one another. They still fight from time to time, but who doesn't? We are both really glad that we brought her into the home, and feel like Tawny is opening up more now that she has another kitty to play with in the house. They chase each other all over the place and get into all sorts of trouble, but it's cute to watch and we love every minute of it.

So hopefully this helps to balance things out from yesterday's post. I have plenty of good things going on and it will probably be helpful to focus more on these things than the craziness that is my life. I've been really really good on my weight watchers and am looking forward to seeing more movement on the scale. It isn't going as fast as I would like, but it IS going which is the most important thing. Worst case scenario I can take the dress in to hopefully have it altered a bit, but I'm hoping that if I stay strong for the next 2 weeks that this won't have to happen.

Only time will tell!

I'm sorry. I thought that was already in the plan. I'm sure it's going to happen either closer to or when your grad school is done.

You're so cute! I really hope you didn't take my comment personally. I was being a smarty pants. I have my moments too. Not all blogs are uppity all the damn time... shit, look at mine.

YAY for you and Brian and YAY for your kitties! Mine still hate each other. lol. Minnie's a fat ass bully and Daisy's the good one now. hehe.
