Well, after 17 days with no internet I am back. My mom and I moved into my Grandparents old house. It has been a difficult adjustment, but I think it will be fine. We had to downsize quite a bit, but we had an unhealthy amount of stuff and donating to salvation army, getting rid of clutter and organizing things has been really good for me. Most of all I am just thankful our house sold. Moving in winter is horrible, I do not recommend it. I do however recommend measuring your furniture before you have the mover's put it in your new living room, which my mom did not do. None of our living room furniture fit so for the last 2 weeks we have been sitting in those fold up tailgating chairs...haha
Christmas was nice. We didn't do the normal stuff since all of our belongings are in boxes, but we celebrated the best we could. Christmas Eve Jeff took me to his Aunt's house. We ate good food, drank fancy drinks and I got to watch a video of Jeff standing up in a wedding when he was 3...so cute. Then this morning we woke up and openned presents. I got lots of good stuff! My mom made a big breakfast and Jeff and I lounged around and watched episodes of It's Always Sunny In Phillidelphia. Then we went to my mom's best friend's house and ate a big turkey dinner. Although Christmas was fun it will be nice to return to the ordinary Trotto traditions.
Having Jeff back has made everything a lot easier. He is so good to me and my mom. He is always there to help out or move something. The last couple months have been some of the happiest in my life. I absolutely love him and the relationship we have. I didn't realize how empty I was without him until now.
Things are good. I will post photos of our new/old house later. This house is small, but I like living in the house my mom and I (pretty much) grew up in. This house has some neat details you can only find in a old house. Although my room is tiny I can't wait to find a place for everything. I can't wait to start this new chapter.

I went to the doctor today and I have strep throat and an ear infection.
Life sucks and anti-biotics make me sick to my stomach. |

- This morning I woke up completely congested with a sore throat. I love how I get sick my last week of school. I haven't been cold-sick in such a long time I forgot what it felt like. It is my own fault though. I am convinced that I hadn't gotten sick for a long time because I was eating super-healthy since like August. Now that Jeff is back we have been eating out a lot, my mom and I haven't been cooking much since half our kitchen is packed up and all my exercise stuff is stored so I have gained a couple lbs. Starting tomorrow I am going to get my act back together.
- I forgot that all my clean clothes were at my grandma's in laundry baskets until last night at 1:00am as I was laying in bed planning my outfit for today. This morning I got all ready, threw sweats pants on and went to pick up my clean cute outfit. When I got there I discovered that I forgot to turn the dryer on and what I wanted to wear was still soaking wet. I didn't have a lot of time so I ended up coming to school in gray yoga pants, a white men's tee shirt, oversized sweater and black uggs. I look like such a slob, I am embarrassed.
+ Yesterday I bought myself two train cases (among other things) for all my make-up and I organized it all and got rid of the stuff I never used or that was old. I had so much fun setting it all up. I will most likely post a photo later because I am super excited about it.
+ Jeff and I are going to see Stella Saturday night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Gotta go, it's time for BIO...more like boreo! |

I work at 3AM ON FRIDAY!!! I pretty much have to eat dinner and then go straight to bed. Luckily, turkey makes me sleepy.
I have some friends & family shopping passes for December 7th.
If you want one let me know. It will give you 20% anything in JCPenney and Sephora inside JCP. Usually Sephora is excluded from this sale, so if you like good make up and you don't take advantage of this you might me dumb. |
