End of 2009

I will be putting a post with pictures from Christmas, but my batteries died in my camera. The end of 2009 is closing coming. There has been so much change this past year. Some of which are good and bad. Here is some of what has changed:

  • My Uncle Jay (also known as Uncle JJ) had passed away from cancer in June. This is something that still upsets me very much so. He was only 34 years old. He had my cousin Nathan as a son who is now 4 years old. It is nice to look at Nathan and how Nathan acts sometime that reminds me of Uncle JJ. He will never be forgotten.
  • My best friends mom's cancer came back. Thankfully she has made it threw this year. Hope she has many more years.
  • We are not talking with Cody's parent right now and have not since July. It is something that goes into great detail and time to explain everything.
  • We have gotten so very close to Jon, Ashley and the boys. WE are so glad to be part of their lifes. The people who are not, well they are missing out on a lot.
  • I found Cody's Uncle Cal (which i didnt mean to but am so very glad i did). Cody hasnt seen or talk to him in many many years. But are glad we are talking to him now.
  • We are working very hard to get out of debt. It would have helped if we didnt have to move out on our own in a short time with no money saved up. But we are working to get out of the mess. It is going pretty good but taking time.
  • Cody has changed jobs. He doesnt care for where he works now but it is money. WHen i am done with school he is going back to become a mechanic. Which makes me so very happy.
  • Cannon took my thong out of my over night bag when we were visiting JOn and Ashley (cannon is the dog).
  • We found out our female lizard is not a female.
  • My dads best friend (who i call my uncle) and my cousin (by marriage) got married. So happy for them both.
We have had some ups and downs in 2009. But it is something we are both growing from. We are so very grateful to have the relationship with the family and friends that we do. Cody and I have our fights but things are always getting better. I am so grateful to have Cody in my life. I love him to death and dont know what i would do without him. He is not only my boyfriend but my best friend. He makes me happy and is an amazing cook. I am so ready for 2010. To get closer to the people that we are already close to and to get out of debt. In 2010 i will be graduating from college and getting the office job that i want (i hope). So things will be looking up for us.


Happy New Years To Everyone.
And for the ones who shared in the year with us thank you for making it pretty great.


Uncle JJ i hope you are looking over us and I know you will be proud of Nathan and miss him. YOu will never be forgotten. We love you and miss you a lot.
