Tis the season…to be sick
by Ashley ~ December 29th, 2008. Filed under: Uncategorized.It’s been a while since i’ve updated on this. I’ve been sort of busy, let me start off by saying I hope everybody had an amazing Christmas. Mine was great, It was fun to see all my family new and old. This year was our first official Christmas together, I mean we’ve been together for 6 years, so technically this was our 7 Christmas together (holy cow) but this one was the best yet! Waking up on Christmas morning and starting our own family traditions. A thought came to me this year, this is one of my last Christmas’s without a child in my life. That’s so weird to think about, a lot of people are giving us just like 2 or 3 years lol. I can promise that nothing will happen until we get a house I am 100% positive I will not raise a baby in this condo at all not even for a few months. I am beyond ready to get away, if our neighbors move it wont be as bad, we are having a lot of problems with our neighbors, which is aweful because technically this is a great place to live as newly weds. it’s a great first home, I know I complain about it, but it really could be worse. who knows maybe our neighbors will leave sooner than we thought
of course we wouldnt have anything to do with that. Anyways, for Christmas we got an OVEN!! One of my major complaints about this place is our kitchen and esp. our oven, because it didnt work and we couldnt cook ANY thing, and Corey’s mom got us one for Christmas and I cant wait til it gets here!! We are gonna cook roast beef cassarole and cookies! the first night we have it. Hopefully it will be wenesday. Corey got me a new camera it’s a cannon 20D which is just a few steps down from his camera I’ll be able to help him at weddings now witha good camera and get better pictures. My mom got a puppy!!! Me and Corey had to babysit him for two weeks, because my step siblings didnt know about him, so we had to wait til Christmas. He is a 9 week old Chiwheenie (chihuahua dochsund mix) he is adorable I call him cutie face, they decided to name him oscar. I also got a job, I started on december 22. I work at Chick-fil-a, my favorite place to eat. It’s about time and good timing too, now we can save up and get a house and move out!
The past month has been a tough one, the first week of December I was sick in bed for two days and still felt sick with a stuffed nose for a week, and then two weeks later I developed a cough and I lost my voice and the day after Christmas right after my voice is finally back, I get sent home from work, because I got sick, I went home got sick again (which made people question on rather or not I was pregnant, I can guarantee everybody that I am not pregnant!) and then slept for 5 hours, that was on friday and i spent the whole weekend battling my stomach and I think I’m over that now. Hopefully I’m over my sicknesses now, except Corey is feeling a little sick. He handles his sicknesses better than I do.
We’re going on ski trip on thursday, what a perfect way to start out the new year! We will be gone until Sunday. I’m excited for the new year, the past two years havnt been too amazing for me, besides getting engaged and married (which are the best thing I could ask for ever), but i’m ready for a full good uneventful year. I’m starting off great, I have a job, a wonderful husband who makes me soo happy, I’m working develping some hopefully long lasting friendships, and I’m working on my relationship with God. Our group of friends have had some pretty big changes in it and im excited to see how God works in our group.
That’s all my updates for now there’s a lot but it’s been a while.
