Well, its been a while since Ive written! I have been hired as an employee with the Texas Dept of Criminal Justice working as a correctional officer at one of the State Prisons here and have completed 1 and a half of my 5 and a half week training with the academy! I got 100 on my first test, passed my physical agility test (miracle in and of itself), and have already toured our first unit to get a feel for the environment. I still have my doubts and nervousness about it, but ALOT of women work in the system and move up the ranks, and I wont know my own capabilities if I never try! The pay is fantastic, free health insurance that is wonderful, and TONS of benefits working for the state.
Today is also my anniversary! Moving into my 6th month being with my love. I love our new apartment, waking up together, doing all the little things that some call monotonous, its just been.. really good! Someone abandoned a litter of tiny, 3 week old grey tabby kittens at his work by the dumpster, and over a two and a half day period, we were able to catch all six, and we are now feeding and socializing them and they are a HANDFUL! We have one we have bonded too that we are naming Xena, and she is so sweet <3 Our friends are taking the only boy, so after we ween them in the next couple weeks, we will start adopting them out. They have been so sweet and cute, I will miss them all :(
Starting my healthy eating and exercise again for the millionth time. The key is never give up no matter how many stumbles you have along the way, right? I have a few friends joining me on this adventure, and I am excited! I’m also going to be buying my grandmas old car since mine is about to go kaput. So much change going on, its hard for me to keep up! I miss my family all the time, and I cant WAIT to go see them again soon :) 2 of my 3 families have met my love, and he is incredibly liked which makes me happy. His parents are so sweet and supportive of both Tyler and I in schooling and work related things. Other than that, nothing much happening other than just living life and moving my sub-blog posts to my main one. It will now be a personal/fitblr blog, and it will be nice to only have one to post on now. Until next time.. <3
