Comings and Goings....










So I haven't updated in a while....But this is whats been up with us. We adopted another cat. His name is Jasper. He is orange and loves attention. In fact if your sitting next to him on the couch and don't pet him he meows at you like hey look at me look at me. Rory has been working hard like always he got a per motion at work and is now doing van work and stack stuff also. He got a great compliment by one of the owners about how much he has matured which coming from her is saying quite a lot. I'm on my way to a promotion at work. I am training and working very hard on being a "manager" even though I'm not a manager yet. I guess I have to be one before I am called one? Its been hard because I am having to tell people what to do and a lot in our stores is changing and all of it at once is making people very unhappy not just at me but the whole situation. But my bosses have my back and are helping me the best they can. At the beginning of April we got a roommate...3 days later we kicked him out...or well he left...Rory told him when he moved in that he needed to start looking for a job immediately and I told Rory to give him a few days to get settled and he said ok. So 3 days after he gets here he tells me "I'm going to go hang out with my sister today." And I told him he needed to look for a job and he flipped out on me and called me a liar when I told him Rory wanted him to start looking the first day. So I told Rory about it, and he took care of it. We have a lot of stuff we have to save money fo we cant be supporting someone who isn't trying to get on their own feet. We both work very hard to stay a float and try to save some money to get a new car that we really need at this point. we are trying to move when our lease is up in June, and we are in desperate need of a new couch...hince not enough money to be wasting on someone else. We tried to help him out but we weren't going to help someone who wasn't going to help themselves.

Update...













Soooo...I finally got a phone with a camera so I can take pictures. I have a few to add to this post. A lot has happened over the last few months. I got another job now I work at game stop and at a 24 hours subway. Rory is still with Aeros and has gotten a raise and is training for a promotion and will be geting another raise here in a few weeks we hope. The animals are doing wonderful Justice and I go jogging at the park and the cats are the talk of the Apts everyone loves them and tries to play with them while they are outside. I recently had been very sick. I had a Kidney stone it was the most painful thing I have ever felt. We also recently found a small pitbull puppy that was about a year old we called him Peete. We only had him for a few days but I miss him very much. He was found roaming our complex and he had a very bad skin infection. I was told by a neighbor he was tossed from a moving car. So we took him in and got a vouture from the humaine society to take him to the vet. He had skin mites. So we paid for some antibiotics and took him home. He was to hyper and to untrained to keep. We had no way to punish him so he would not learn that he could not mark in the house or chase the cats of mess with Justice so we had to take him to a shelter. We were told that he would get the medical attention he needed and if he was found to be adoptable he would be put up for adoption. I cried all the way home after we left the shelter. But when we were dropping him off two children had already pointed hum out to there parents so I'm sure he will find himself in a good home. I've started a diet and exercise "program" I've lost about 10lbs so far and I'm doing really well on it. I have been taking in less calories and jogging with Justice and Cardio boxing on my wii and using slimquick. All is well. I also found the engagment ring i want. It is white gold with small inset diamonds and 2 hearts one with my bithstone and one with rorys. ( the pictures show all one color but it would be one of each color)

A little drama..a lot of stress...

So....I strongly dislike my neighbors...and I hate Liars... I don't understand why people feel the need to lie about such stupid things...and then threaten to " beat my a**" when I ask why they lied...seriously...and now we have to move cause I don't feel like I should have to put up with such crap and stupid white trash people seriously....I moved to get away from things like this. Other then that little incident life has been good. The cats and Justice are finally doing ok together and Justice is doing well at the park and not trying to fight with other dogs nearly as much. I've been working a lot and am starting to work graveyard this week and also got 3 days at gamestop which i haven't had 3 days for months...I gave a shift to someone else cause she only has that job and only got one day this week and really needed it more then I did.We are looking for a new place and not having the greatest luck because we have so many pets and Justice is so big. But I think I'm going to start asking places if they accept kids instead of pets cause I have 3 kids and they just aren't human... I don't see why children are any different... You still pick up after them feed them and so on.. So I guess in the next month or so we will see what we come up with and hope that we find a nice place that isn't to expensive.

So...New stuff

Justice has finally arrived...safe and sound!! If anyone is thinking about shipping or moving anything I suggest using uship.com I found a company there that shipped Justice from door to door for very cheap and they took very good care of here for the 2 days she was with them. Also our cats are so not happy she is here. She could care less about them but Indie got so mad and freaked out he attacked me and now my hands and wrists look like a razor blade got taken to them. On a happier note though, I have finally found another job, I will now be working at Game Stop and also at Subway. Not my favorite place to work but at this point a job is a job. Rory also got a raise at work and my car is finally running ok. Now I just have to get insurance again...other then that life is good...I miss everyone...and I hope in a few months that Keanu will be able to come and visit. Clean and Sober and not in trouble is the goal I have for him...I know I need to post more pictures but I broke my cell phone and we don't have a camera so for now NO pictures...

Company and Bad Karma

So...its been a few weeks and the last couple haven't been very good...My friend Jackie came to visit and we have come to the conclusion she is a Jinx.. The first Monday that she was here we decided to go to Pismo beach. On our way we got bad directions to get gas and ran out of gas on the side of a hill 13 miles off the road and California State Patrol had to do a search and rescue and use an airplane to come find us....3 hours later and a very bad sunburn and we were found and towed safely back to a gas station. Thank god that Jill and Tim had AAA on the car we were driving and we didn't have to pay for the tow truck it would have been 400+ dollars... So the next day we took a different route out to the beach and spent the day at the beach...On Wed I broke the cell phone that just a few monthes ago we paid 200 dollars for...and then Rory didn't end up getting home until after one am on saturday morning he had worked a 19.5 hours day...nuts.. Just to wake up Saturday morning to find our car had been broken into and our 2 subs, amp and stero missing and our door handle had been taken out with a screw driver. So what a week...then Jackie went home this last Monday and there has been no more issues. Thankfully...I love having our apt to myself Rory has been out of town again he comes home tonight... I'll be glad to have him home but the next time we have company if they are staying for more then a couple of nights they are getting a hotel...this apt is to small for 3 people the 2 of us and our cats and Justice(soon) will be pleanty... and I still get all crazy with just us... I think I hate cat litter more then I hate sand under my nails...I even bought the cats a mat to go in front of the box and some how they still end up getting litter all over the floor I sweep and vaccum everyday cause I hate the feeling of cat litter under my feet. So heres to loving that my company is gone and so is the bad karma.. still I am unsure what i did to deserve that...

So This Is Life on Your own..





So I figured I should start this and tell everyone what life's been like in California finally being an Adult on my own and making it...Rory and I couldn't be happier... When I moved down here in December I wasn't in the greatest of places mentally or financially and now I feel like a whole new person. We moved into a loft apt when I moved here and I had to wait around to get hours when I transferred from my job at game stop in Washington to the one here in Bakersfield. So I learned how to be a house "wife" cook clean and so on. I love that part, In March we got our first animal together I had my lizard of course but we wanted a warm fuzzy kind of pet..so we adopted Sway are very adorable and mischievous calico kitten. In June we finally decided we needed more space, I have way to many things for a loft and I want to bring Justice to live with me so we moved into a 1 bedroom with a nice spacious patio so when she comes she has a place to play. We also got another kitten, Professor Indiana Jones. I haven't been getting hours at work so I'm in desperate search for another job, though it is difficult. But Rory works very hard to support us and does such a great job of taking care of our little family and while I miss Washington, I've made this my home and I'm happier here then I had been in a very long time.
