Just Another Day

"Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind
don't matter and those who matter don't mind" -Dr. Seuss

Where does the family start? It starts with a young man falling in love with a girl - no superior alternative has yet been found.
- Winston Churchill

So Cody and I have been together for 4 years and 3 days now. We are happy with how our life is. Nothing really happening right now. I just thought i would try to make a blog as much as i can but we don't have kids yet so new things don't a ways happen with us. In just 8 more days we get to visit with Jon (Cody's Brother), Ashley, Shawn, and Landon. We have missed them all so very much. We haven't seen them since end of June beginning of July. It has been way way to long. Cody is working more hours at work. He says he wants to save up for something. When i ask what, he just says don't worry about it. But i am smart and have come up with what it is he is saving for. He is save for my engagement ring. He was upset at first when i told him i knew. But then i told him what my uncle had said. My Uncle Tim said, "It is very hard to surprise the women in your family because they are all very smart and figure things out. They might not know the details but they know the basic." My Uncle was tell him this. I told Cody i might have figured out that he was saving up for my ring but i don't know when, where, or even if he is getting the ring i showed him. That all will be a surprise for me. He feels much much better now. I do love him very much. I have been thinking to myself. When we do get engaged, our wedding will be weird. The reason i say that is for a couple of reasons. The first being we haven't talked to his parent since July. They probably don't approve of me or like me. Which don't bother me. So who knows how that will be (if they go to the wedding, how they act with me, or to the both of us, how my family will be with them). Cody and I were talking last night about the other reason. The other reason is that Cody has two brothers, Ben (oldest) and Jon (middle child), who don't get along. Both of which will be in the wedding. We know Jon will keep the peace. Plus Cody hasn't heard from Ben such a long time. Not sure if it is because he knows about the fighting with their parents or what. Maybe it is just a little of me being over worried or the both of us worrying a little. So know to change the subject. I have changed my major for the 3rd time since going to college. I have been going to college since Fall of 2006. Way to long. When i first started going my major was Accounting, then it changed to Legal Secretary and has been that for a year or two. I had a meeting with my adviser who is also one of my professors. She and i had discussed my grade in Legal Terminology. Which isn't good at all. That class is very hard. We get a list of word (always group from 4 chapters) and sometimes there would be 150 or less words on it. We had to study all of them but like only 50 would be on the test. With my learning disability it is hard for me. So the professor and i have decided that the best thing for me was to drop that class and change my major to Executive Secretary. I still graduate in May. This way i don't have to know terminology i just have to know spelling. Which she said if i have trouble doing test (test day she would say a word and i have to spell it on paper), she would give me a paper with a list. Each number will have 3 ways to spell each word. One correct way and two incorrect way. I would have to pick the right one. So she is really working with me. She is a good professor. So i think i wrote a pretty long blog sorry for the ones who don't like to read a lot. Here are some pictures of the cats. Enjoy
That is my lizard, Drake. We have to separate him and Bindi when they
eat because she doesn't always let him eat. So it
is easier to do this.


There is Skyra. What a pretty kitty she is


Gizmo and Skyra would not leave the cage alone i had to go
and put it on the ground so they could watch.


Gizmo cleaning Skyra. What a good brother he is

That's sweet Cody got upset when he knew you knew what he was saving for. But you're right- you don't know what, when or where so it'll totally be a surprise :-) Don't worry about things you can't control... especially right now when those things might be a bit far off in the future. Believe me, I know it's easier said than done LoL But like they say... worry is like a rocking chair- it gets you no where :-)
