Responsibilities





With my dear husband starting a new job comes a few new "responsibilities" for him and myself as well.  Being a part of a boarding school will consume you, yes we were warned, but I am realizing it much quicker than I thought I would!  I am soo happy that we are where we are though!  I cannot thank God enough for this opportunity.  I MISS *HIM* THOUGH.       Being a senior class sponsor, orchestra and choir director there will be many trips this year, not including all the other "responsibilities" he now has.  This weekend started the madness.  He left this morning to a place with the senior class that no one knows where they went, and to top it off...he has no cell phone reception or electricity.  It was storming this morning when they left, so hopefully they won't be rained on the whole time.       I had hopes and plans to go along on this first trip, but after finding out that we wouldn't be able to take Gabriel, and with Henry coming home..I had to stay back and be "responsible" for them.  I must say, I sort of threw a little fit about not being able to go...nothing serious or too crazy, but I was just bummed.  The one thing about moving somewhere completely new  is not having old friends around to call up and hang out with.  I have just been cleaning and playing with my "responsibilities" today. HAHA!  I will say one thing, I am thankful I don't have children at this point in my life, Henry and Gabriel are ENOUGH! :)  I have never been one for taking on "extra" "responsibilities", I find it difficult to add unnecessary stress into my life. That may sound selfish, but I think it's very thoughtful :).  Imagine if I said yes to things I couldn't find time for, or if I had a baby just because I liked the idea of being able to call it mine.  What a mess my little world would be in.       Right now, I am happy with life.  I do sometimes wish animals, Gabriel, could take care of himself, but...that wasn't part of his resume. :P  Henry, I am not too worried about..he is a cat, and they pretty much do what they want..I LOVE THAT!!  :)   Aaaaahhhhh...the "Responsibilities" in life....

Looking forward to my partner returning home safe and sound.

I need to catch up...

So...Independence Day weekend, a very special person in my life came to spend the weekend with me.  We had a party on Sunday the 3rd at  The Aqua , which was a lot of fun.  Monday we drove down to Indiana and I stayed there all week with some friends from my "home town."  Thank you Ashlen and Austin ♥.  I went down in preparation for my sweet friend's wedding on Saturday, July 9th.  I was a bridesmaid in the wedding...and wanted to be there to help set things up with her and her family. So...I plan to write more about my experiences the last few days..but right now I am stressed for time.  So I will post some photos until then.

this time last year..

This time last year my husband, our pup, and I were living in a tiny little truck bed camper in the middle of NO MAN'S land California.  Our energy was powered by a generator that we had to fill with gas every single day, and our heat was powered by propane tanks that were so old we could hardly find a place to get them filled.  Thanksgiving was a cold, gloomy, rainy day and we were stuck inside all day.  We tried to cook food on our tiny stove, but it was by no means a traditional Thanksgiving.  We watched movies almost all day and played with our pup, who was still new to us.  I was so heart broken, I could hardly see straight.  He held me together when I felt like falling to pieces.  I had a lot to be thankful for, I had my health, my husband, I had food, family...you know, all the things we are always used to having.  I was still so sad.  I wanted to spend the holiday cooking, eating, spending time with the people I love, being comfortabl...
