A Teddy Lover’s Travels…

It seems that even though I have a blog I don’t update it very often. It’s not that I don’t have time, it just that I’m too busy living life. I feel that in all of my life I have never lived like I have these past few months.
Being married is great and also a lot of work. Without Erik I’m almost postive that life would not be as wonderful as it is. There is no one out there that I love as much as him.
After a lot of thought and prayer, I have decided that I’m not going to be going back to school in the fall. The fact that I can not afford it is only one of the many reasons why I’m not going back. This is a time for me to get to learn more about life, and about myself. I have been in school for about 17 years without a break. I’ll go back at some point and finish since that is what I want to do. I just have to find a job now and I’ll be set for awhile.
Life is crazy, but that is what makes it fun.

Even without work I’ve found ways to keep busy. I still have to keep house and take care of Erik. That is the best job that any girl could ever ask for. He’s been so supportive of me.
Then there is also my two on-line classes. I keep busy doing that. On-line classes are fun because you get to go to class at whatever time of day that you want to. You have to keep track of classes and what is due for yourself.
I’m going to be looking for a job actively after we get back from Chicago. That is where Erik and I will be spending our one year anniversary. The day before we will be attending the renewal of vows of Mike and Rachel.
I will be looking at Target in food ave, boots cosmetics, and other jobs there. We need insurance and Target gives it to part time employees. That is something that Macy’s didn’t do.
There are no hard feelings about what happened. I guess I have just moved on and not worry about it. That is just what I’m going to do.

I’m unemployed again, I guess it’s back to the drawing board.

You’d better believe it, life has gotten pretty crazy. I’m happy to say that I’m back up to 13 hours next week. I have a lot of house work that I had better start working on next week too. I also start my two summer on line classes next week.
My hours for next week are as follows Sunday 2-6, Thursday I have to open so my hours are 7-12, and Saturday 12-4. It will be nice to have that many hours for next week. If any of you would like to stop in and see me and get something to eat please be my guest.
Hun I couldn’t have this job without you because you are my encouragement and you help me get to work. I love you for it.

I just got back from work and that is still my mindset. I was going on autopilot most of the day today. I feel like I know what’s going on. I enjoyed my day at work.
I just wanted to give you my weekly update with my hours. I really wish that I had more hours this week. I work only 8 hours again this week. 11:30-3:30 on Wednesday and 3-7 on Saturday. If anyone wants to drop by marketplace please feel free to do so.

Today I worked. I can’t think of a single Saturday that I haven’t worked since I started. Today was busy, busy, I guess there was a big Mother’s Day Sale complete with makeovers. I went sampling three times and it was so crowded that I almost couldn’t move.
Well while I was waiting for Erik that is when the big adventure started. I was talking with other people and all of a sudden there was smoke coming from one of the cars in the parking lot. A car was on fire!!! You could see the smoke from half a block away. When Erik came and got me I’m pretty sure that the first thing I said to him was, “There is a car on fire in the parking lot.”
Erik and I spent a good deal of time out just the two of us today. I always like spending time with just him. I think that is my bit of heaven. I wish I could see Erik more often, but right now we both have to finish school and work so that we can pay the bills.
Also due to the fact that it is finals this next week, I only work two shifts. I work on Thursday from 12-4 and Saturday from 12-4. Come by if you’d like.

I don’t have much class this week. I have finals next week though. Then it’s all over for awhile, I do have class over the summer. I have two classes one online and one on campus.
Ok so I have to work 13 hours this week. I work from 12-5 on Tuesday, 11-3 on Thursday and 10-2 on Saturday. I’m trying so hard to learn the last of the things that I have left to learn.

Yes I want to talk about My Erik. Life with him is better than anything I could have ever hoped for. Not only is he a great friend, he’s also a great person to talk to when you are feeling a certain way. He’s the sunshine in my life.
As of today I’ve been married to him for 10 months. I was thinking that all day today. When I see old couples walking around that have been married for a long time. I look at them and hope that someday that can be Erik and I.
Happy 10 month anniversary hun, I love you.

I don’t know what to say, I guess work has gone on much as it has since I started. Smoothie making is getting easier for me but I still just don’t like to do it.
I have had a brush with my boss but it’s all ok now. I’m not going to worry about it and carry on at work. Oh well I think we’ll all be ok.
Next week I work 11-3 on Wednesday, 10-2 Thursday and 12-5:45 on Saturday. If you want to come and visit me you are more than welcome to. If you do so that would be very nice of you.
I have learned a lot about life this week. I really don’t care to get into too much detail here. I just learned that I have to just try and be a good person

I’m really liking my job. There is never a dull moment there, and there is always so much to do. I do miss Erik when I’m there. I made my first smoothie alone today.
I have a lot of things going on around me. I’m almost done with school and hopefully I’ll be all graduated by August. That is not why I posted today though.
I work on Monday from 12-4, Tuesday from 12-4 and Saturdy from 2-6. I guess that’s about it.
