I Welcome Myself and You!


Well here goes nothing I suppose!  I should prolly start by recapping life a little.  There are I am sure a few confused people out there.  So again, here goes nothing-  

It's September 5 and I am going back a year.  Most of you know about what was going on then.  After moving myself and Tristyn to New York, Williston Park on Long Island to be exact, we settled in to Rob's space and took over!  Ha ha.  It's kind of what I do.  We are living currently in the same place, Rob's grandfather's house with him, his uncle and his wife.  We have made it ours with the little we have right now.  Time went on, my looking for a job and Rob working for Valente Contracting Corp.  He is a laborer, working hard and coming home dirty!  I finally found a job working for a good company- RE/MAX of New York, Inc..  They are the headquarters of RE/MAX in the state of NY.  I was a receptionist.  It was nice, hard for me as I have never done anything like that, in the structure they require, before.  I got the job in December right before Rob stopped working for the winter.  We took a Holiday trip to WI for a visit.  I was very home sick.  When we got back we decided that it was time to get this wedding on the drawing board and make some decisions (Rob asked the previous summer shortl after we got here, I believe it was July) since waiting and waiting wasn't getting us anywhere.  We finally picked a date, 5-23.  What luck, Memorial Day Weekend!  The kick off for the summer, it seemed fitting somehow.  So the planning started shortly there after.  We picked a place and got all the details worked out.  Just as the wedding was approaching things went badly at work and I lost my job the Monday of the week before.  It was really horrible and the timing was horrible.  I was really angry and why I was let go is just stupid and awful!  But...  Whatever!!!!!   Ha ha.  So the wedding came.  Daddy, brother and sister, Mom and Ben and the BFF Jeni came into town and we had a party.  The wedding was wonderful.  We had a great weekend and had a lot of fun with everyone.  It was a good time.  So then came the job search for me.  I finally found a job, photography at that!  Irvin Simon Photographers is where I am working now.  They do school, camp and sports photos for most all of New York and into RI, CT, PA and they even fly some places for VERY important jobs that I assume pay well!  I worked for the month of July and into August and now start again for the fall September 10th.  Rob is working a lot and taking steps towards his CDL, he wants to be a truck driver.  I think he finally knows what he wants to be when he grows up.  Ha ha.  I am also looking into some teaching opportunities that are here in the area.  Being a Teacher Assistant gives you benefits and anything with teaching can get you a job anywhere.
  So to now-  Hmmm.. Next post!

Back in Time
