Down The Rabbit Hole I Call My Life

School starts tomorrow...

AND I DONT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT IT!!!!!!! haha.

Its a weird feeling knowing that I dont have to be in class Monday morning... but a good feeling too.

So Kevin and I have officially made the move back to Arlington and are staying with his parents. Keivn started his job with the Southland Conference last Monday and he seems to be liking it pretty well.

I, after a month and half of applying everywhere known to man, have finally found a job. As I stated before I needed a job just to make some money so I can start working on my teaching certification classes. I got a job in Sales in the lingerie department at Nordstrom. The pay is $9/hr which is great but I can also collect commission. For my department its 9% vs 6% for all other department and if my commission makes me more money then the hourly wage then I will collect it if not then I get paid hourly. Im pretty pumped about it because the harder I work the more money I make and I dont have to worry about other employees. Its also gonna be good around the holidays... MONEY IN THE BANK! hahah Anyway I start Tuesday. Im excited and relieved..

Next on the Agenda: Move out of the in-laws.

My friend Mandi has asked Kevin I to move into her town home with her. Its three bedrooms, two downstairs, one upstairs. We would get the entire downstairs to ourselves. Its a great opportunity and not expensive at all plus its about 15 min away from Kevin's job and 10 min away from mine. It would word perfect but we wouldn't move until October.

So graduation happened and Kevin and I have spent our entire summer in limbo with LOTS of unanswered questions.

These questions have just now (two weeks before we have to move out) have started to get answered.

NO Kevin did not get the job with the SHSU Athletic Department. They couldnt afford to hire him.

YES Kevin got the internship with the Southland Conference in Frisco, TX.

YES Kevin has to give up doing 12th street sports bar

YES we have to move in with his parents in Arlington

NO we cant stay there for the entire 10 month internship

Its safe to say that things DID NOT go the way we wanted but we have to be fortunate for what we have and make the best of it.

I'm not ready to leave Huntsville but I have to do what I have to do, its very bittersweet. Im excited to move on with my life but the fact that Kevin isnt starting a salary job right away like we had hoped makes things a lot more difficult. I will have to postpone getting my teaching certification for awhile.

I have to find a job in Frisco and we have to find an apartment there as well. So whatever job I get that money will go towards bills as well as the little bit of pay Kevin will be getting from his internship. Plus we have to start paying back our loans in November.

I hate money.

At this point my life has been thrown all out of wack and I'm trying my best to deal with it. The hopes of getting engaged and married are a lot farther away then I originally hoped. Money is the biggest issue. We dont want to do it until we are financially stable and can afford to pay for our wedding and in order to have money we have to have steady jobs and by the looks of it thats at least a year to two years away. Its pretty disappointing but I guess there are bigger things to worry about at the moment.

Looks like I could be going to Colorado for a couple of weeks to work. Im not finding anything out here and we are really strapped for money. I asked my stepmom if there was any work I could do for her company and she said possibly so.. Hopefully there will be.

If it does happen I will be leaving Tuesday and coming back on the 30th. I hate being away from Kevin for more then a day but I guess I have to do what I have to do...

The good thing is my niece will be turning 1yr old on the 23rd so I will be able to be there for her and her party! Im pretty pumped about that.

Still sucks though.

Ok so my entire family has decided to do this family wide (no pun intended lol) weight loss challenge. The deal is...starting today through August 22nd, the person who either gets to their target weight faster or loses the most by the end wins $500! We all took our measurements, weighed ourselves and took a before picture.. we are going to weigh in and measure every Saturday until August 22nd just to keep up with everyone. This is good motivation for me because I want to lose at lease 40lbs. For real. SO WISH ME LUCK! I hope I can do it!!!!

I wanna look like this again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
