Our birthday is only a week away
Me and my daughter share a birthday. Wonderful right. I have never heard of such a thing. I was born July 25 1982 she was born July 25 2002. Thats 20 years apart. Oh what luck. But i think i like the fact that we were born the same day. its like looking into a mirror all the time. i really love her. Well as you know it is July, so our birthday is coming up in one week. I feel like im getting old. :( Its kinda sad considering im only turning 28. But it seems as thought im older. I have been married for almost 2 years and been with my husband for 9 years. Thats a long time to be with someone. I never thought i was going to get married. Much less to such a great man. But anyway, I hope this birthday turns out well. Even though we dont have alot of money i know that my baby will be happy. We have the perfect gift for her! Well it getting kinda late and im sleepy so..... Goodbye for now.

Half way there
So, I have been in college now for a full school year and I'm currently finishing my summer term. I'm only going to a community college now but, I feel like I have learned a lot. I have already made my plans to go to a University next fall so I have already started looking for my new school. But all in all, I am half way done with my associates degree.
Now, on to the next, I have my working situation in order now. Instead of looking for a place to hire me, my husband and myself decided to start our own business. We already had the clientele and know how of the business we selected. So, no more searching for work!! Yay! now its just advertising and customer service so that our business doesn't fall under. We are still running our business out of his father in laws shop, but We are half way there!
Last, we have been living with someone else or in someone else's home for most of the years we have been together (My husband and myself). Finally, we have bought our own home. It's wonderful! and not too small either (1404 sq. ft). That's perfect for a 3 member household, with plans for a fourth. (wish us luck). We are still only half way with this also though, we bought the house on land contract, but it was for a good price so we should have it all settle REAL soon.
So the moral of this segment is, if you are a pessimist or an optimist, we are all still HALF WAY THERE.
So lets take it all the way from now on, because that is my ultimate goal, to GET THERE.
