So what a strange weekend.
Friday I left work early and got my hair blondified : ) I love it. I didn't realize how much I missed being blonde, and I'm not even sure it's about being blonde, there's a feeling I get just getting my hair done. Maybe it's because I dont ever get my nails done, or pedicures, or go tanning anymore so this is the one beauty ritual I do. Of course I pick the most expensive one lol.
Friday night me and Matt were supposed to meet up with some friends for a low key inexpensive hang out, but we both fell asleep at 930... holy crap when did we get old? I guess we were just both so exhausted from the week. Better yet, we slept in till 9 and that NEVER happens. I guess Lucy must of realized we needed sleep b/c she slept pretty much the whole night only waking up once to go out. We were so impressed. The day went by with pretty much one long excursion to Lowe's. I decided the route I wanna take with my closet organization dreams and I'm going to have to start saving up for it.
Saturday night I went to MI to see the family. My aunt is in town from jersey so it was nice to spend time with her. I got to get in some beach time today which is always nice and soothing. My parents were happy to see me but thrilled I brought Lucy home. It makes me wonder what things will be like when I have children... geeez.
Anyways onto the whole point of this post. So Matt informed me today that his sister will be moving in with her boyfriend. If I have this right I am 90% sure they have been together for about 9 months. Is that crazy? I think it's crazy lol. I know his sister is 28 and she's ready for that, but I dont know. Perhaps it's jealousy... yeah that's probably it. I knew dating someone younger would postpone milestones but I don't know. I guess I finally feel ready and as much as it sucks to say and hurts to say, I don't know if he is ready. Well that was a dumb statement because of course he isn't ready, because if he was ready then he would be ring shopping which i highly doubt : ( I guess what's meant to be will be.

I'm back at it....
So I'm going to start blogging again to keep in touch with a good circle of friends. Hopefully, I will be able to update this frequently and it's easier for me to type than for me to be journal writing.
Where to start... I really don't want this blog to begin with such a negative tone, but ugh I need to vent and that's what blogs are for so here we go. This week has been incredibly stressful. I recently was promoted to lead SLP and the amount of responsibility that has come along with this upgrade has been a HUGE surprise! Write now we are in the process of evaluating 50 patients because our corporate headquarters wanted to make a change to one of our diet levels : ( I understand the meaning behind it, but man, it is definitely taking it's toll on my brain. Stress levels are high at work but my speech team is absolutely amazing. They are so supportive and they are working their butts off to get this all finished before August.
In addition to that, yesterday morning my Aunt passed away. I have been preparing myself for this since she was diagnosed with cancer two years ago, and even more so when hospice was called in a few weeks ago. I think what makes it hard is that she is one of the few people I really got along with on my father's side of the family. She was beautiful. She was born in Japan. She could cook like you wouldn't believe. I miss her accent, and her funny laugh. I miss everything about her. I am so fortunate to have had her in my life as an influence and example of what a strong woman should be. Her funeral is on the day of my housewarming party, so that will now be cancelled... sorry. Ill be spending half of the week and weekend in Jacksonville with family and helping my uncle with things around his house. This whole situation is just heartbreaking.
On a positive note, Matt and me are doing great. I had no idea when me and him started dating 2 years ago that we would be where we are today. I find it so crazy that after some really crappy relationships, which I will definitely take part of the blame for letting myself be treated crappy; that I could be with someone like this right now... sigh.
My puppy Lucy is wonderful. Well she can be a terror but I still love her. She is constantly chewing crap but usually selects her bones which makes me happy. She's always getting tired on walks, and she's always wanting to eat too... hmmm maybe thats why we are bestfriends lol.
Time to get ready for dinner... my parents called they want to come over to Orlando for dinner. Must clean and get dressed.
Peace and Love
