right now.

Wearing: AE jeans, black shirt, Marines jacket. Lazy day after work.

Wanting: Dinner! I'm starving and it smells so good cooking upstairs.

Thinking: About how I hope I hear from my Marine tonight! Calls are few and far between.

Needing: Money! Everyone at work got paid today except for me, that's what I get for coming back in the middle of a pay cycle.

Worried about: Nothing!

Hoping for: I hope I'm able to find a church soon! I've been out for so long and I want need to go back.

Excited about: Vacation! And my 21st birthday. ;-) Should be a fantastic night...hubs said he'll show me "how it's done." I don't know if I should be excited or worried about that...hahaha.

Sadie.

Sadie the Jack Russell joined our family on March 5th of this year! She's sooo sweet. She's definitely in love with my husband; since he's been away he's made it very clear how much he misses her. :-) The two of them napped together constantly and played all the time. She'll be glad when he's back!

 First day with us! 8 weeks old.

 First bath at her new house. :) 9 weeks.

 Meeting my family. 10 weeks.

 Cuddling with her BFF. Few days before B left for training.

 Smiiiile!

11 weeks with her new toy.

Yesterday. Exactly 12 weeks! Such a doll.

About Me...15 Facts Version!

I think I've done this once before but figured it was time for a newer version!

1. I was born in North Hollywood, California.

2. I love the color purple. I used to like pink but now I can barely stand it (even though I just bought a pink/white striped shirt...it was the stripes I liked).

 3. I've been married for almost three years. I got married "young" but I wouldn't change it if I could. Everything fell right into place and we wouldn't have it any other way.

4. I'm an extremely anal perfectionist. So much so, that it really bothers me sometimes but I would get so annoyed and irritated with myself if I was any other way.

 5. My personality type is ISTJ. Introversion, Sensing, Thinking, Judgement. And it's totally accurate.

6. I absolutely don't believe in religion/denominations of any kind, but a deep personal relationship with Jesus Christ (John 14:6). 

 7.  I'm a very compulsive shopper. If I see something I want, I must get it or find a way to have it. It's a terrible habit and I'm trying to break it but it's something that's always been hard for me.

8. That being said, I'm really not materialistic. If someone came in my house and stole a bunch of my clothes, shoes, books, whatever, I really wouldn't cry like a baby about it. Things are just that...things. I was born without them, I will die without them.

 9. I love the fashion of the 40s and 50s. 

10.I have a super wide variety of music on my iPod. I used to only listen to one type at a time but over the past couple years my taste has certainly evolved. The content ranges from JJ Heller to Five Finger Death Punch to Skillet to Lady Antebellum to Eminem to Demon Hunter.
11. There are seven billion people in the world, but I can only tolerate ten. Pretty much how I feel on most days!

 12. I love to sew and do crafty things, but if something doesn't come out exactly right I get super frustrated and won't make anything for days at a time. 
13. I love babies. Most of them. We hope to have a big family one day in the future.
14. I've always wanted to visit Greece, and even though I doubt I'll ever get there, I still think about it a lot.
15. I've deleted Facebook and got it back more times than I can count. I have issues where people find out dirt about me and then blab to others, then I find out eventually (my nose ring is unacceptable apparently). But whatever. I have too many real friends on there and it's just easier to block the offenders (or ignore their persistent "friend" requests). Muahahaha.
