Well.

It has definitely been a while since my last post. In a nutshell, 2 years later, I am with the man of my dreams. His name is Edward. I am very much in love with this man. He loves me unconditionally and I love him unconditionally. Crazy to think I have been with him almost 2 years. We met online but not on an actual dating website. We just kinda started talking and we made the quick(and CRAZY) decision to move in together. Yes it was fast and we probably should've waited but I think we both knew if we waited, it would've probably never happened. And here we are almost two years later. I can't believe it. I am thinking we will get married in two years tops... unless something happens out of our control. I am back in college. I finished all my pharmacy technician stuff and actually worked as a pharmacy technician for about a year before I started in my current job as a Behavioral Health Technician here at Mercy in Springfield. I am blessed beyond belief. I am now going to college to just get my pre-reqs out of the way and then I will be applying for NURSING SCHOOL. Then someday, I hope to be an RN in Labor and Delivery or a Mother/Baby Unit :) We live in our own apartment in Springfield and I absolutely love my independence. Bills are tough sometimes but I am glad I am finally on my feet after everything I went through for so long. We are hoping that next August/September when this lease is up, we will move into a bigger place. We started out at my studio apartment. Now we are in a one bedroom. Next step is a bigger apartment, duplex or loft or God Willing a HOUSE :) When I look at everything now, it is crazy to think how far I've come in just a few short years. I never would've thought I would come this far :)
