About 6 months ago me and the boyfriend took a "break" and I moved into my own place. Its definitely been a learning experience, and an eye opener as to how it is as a single mom... and by that I mean living on your own, and doing all the parental duties 5 days out of the week. I now get why running to the store, or just to slip away for 10 minutes to get a snack and to breath can turn into such a luxury! lol
I am happy to say tho, me and Michael are working things out.. Its important to us to be able to experience the full potential of our relationship.. because, well.. there is potential.. but dating, and being a family are two completely different relationship status's and commitment levels.. and it takes WORK a lot of work. Although we are not married.. its easy to say, we basically are.. we need to have a foundation, and most importantly communication. "No one said it was going to be easy.. its going to be really hard...." (like my notebook quote I threw in there. yup.)
Keeping on my trend of blogging about the new year.. we are going to do some NEW things! We are both getting gym passes so we can encourage and motivate each other, and were going to eat healthier and plan meals.. I'm excited to have someone to cook for again! :) Budgeting more, keeping a schedule, trading off days with morning duty with our little one, date nights, movie nights, and activities with the little one. HOUSE HUNTING... I'm so excited for this one! We started to hate the apartment we lived in, and now that I live in a house built for midgets.. there isn't a lot of space to grow as a family. So Hopefully this summer we will find one more suitable to our needs, and move up north more so we can be closer to our jobs!
Speaking of jobs... I now have 2!
I quit my job at the sales floor I was working on and got a stay at home job doing recordings for a software company.. the hours didn't pan out like i thought they would.. so I got another part time job working for my moms husband as a office assistant/construction coordinator in training.. it is awesome, fast passed, busy, and I'm learning a lot! He is a general contractor and owns his own company.. so if work keeps picking up, I will work more.. who knows.. I could do this as a career! I'm loving being able to spend time with Harper more.. but she sure does love daycare, and they are soo great with her and just think she is soo great!
I applied for school about 3 months ago... and once my student loans are figured out I will be starting my online classes to get a degree in Business management/entrepreneurship... I'm so excited!!
and just because I love this.
