Why am I starting a Blog?!

     Honestly, I have NO IDEA. I guess I am looking to find a way to put my daily thoughts down on paper? get some frustrations out and maybe find some solutions to my daily challenges? Today was the third day of basically being bed-bound. I am a natural klutz and slipped on ice, ice I walk over every day, twice a day. Thank the Lord I have an amazing chiropractor, he has me almost back to 100% in just two adjustments. Anyway, while bed-bound and running out of Netflix flix's to watch I spent some time reflecting on where am in my life in regards to society's standards, to sum it up, I am pretty far behind. Thank Goodness IDGAF what people think, and I live life on my one timeline, at my own speed.

 Paul, My forever, my rock, and my future husband (when he asks), and I are planning a move to the place for lovers, that's right Virginia here we come, eventually. His sister lives there and it is a short commute to PA if my family ever has the urge to see me. That is a story for a different post. We are complicated that way. Paul and I are utterly sick of our career choices, basically, when we needed a job we found something we kind of enjoy, that would potentially save us money in the future, neither of us went to college, trade was more our speed. We work together. The great state of PA has also lost its luster for us. The winter is taking its toll, obviously. I can't say I am going to be a huge fan of the Virginia summers, I hate the heat. So we are more than toying with the idea of uprooting our lives and routines and basically everything we have become "comfortable with". Neither of us come home with "Hunny, guess how my day was". We just know not to ask and let the other decompress, also did I mention we work together? Church and State is definitely a law in our lives. I would like to come home and hear about someone's day separate from my own. Give us some more to talk about after work when we are all snuggled up watching t.v.

 I am thinking of going back to school, I am two months shy of 30 and I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up. Real estate has crossed my mind, accounting, but I hate math, and numbers in general. I thought for a little that I might enjoy the medical field but the closest I want to get is, maybe, EMT, and if I am going to do that I am going to go for flight paramedic. So basically six-plus years of school for 40-50k a year and continuously training. I would love to be able to have a good Home / Career balance. something I obviously need to mull over some more. Paul doesn't know what he would like to do other than the mechanic he is now, he will work hard to provide for us but I don't know that he will ever find work that makes him as happy as I wish for him. 

WOW, I guess I have more to say than I thought. Until Next Time!

Meet The In-laws

The Newton Family. Where do I even begin...     The day Paul introduced me to his parents,  I was TERRIFIED! I knew that all the parents of men I have dated absolutely adored me, this meeting felt different. I was actually nervous. I had no reason to be. These people were so gracious and kind, so familiar, like a missing piece in a puzzle I didn't yet know I was putting together. A welcoming feeling of comfort and peace hugged me like a hot blanket fresh out of the dryer on a cold winter night. The moment I stepped in the door, it felt oldy like walking into my own apartment, but with people around. I distinctly remember they were having a cookout that night, Paul trying to make it less awkward, for him. haha. They had some friends over as well so that eased him a little I am sure. He was by far more nervous than I was. It is a night I will remember for all time because that night I expanded my family circle.      Paul W. Newton Sr. has definitely passed hi...
