All Access - part 2

So... will I have time to post an entire entry today? A continuation from yesterday's entry... I am not sure... Things are hectic here and I am surprised that I am typing out this right now.

Yesterday I ended the entry with the way that I felt about high school... can you tell that I really didn't like my high school experience? It was just something that I had to do and get it done. And I am thankful that I got out of there in one piece... by the grace of God I did.
High school was just a point in my life that so many things were happening both at home and at school... I just wanted to get it done and move on with my life.

I tried very hard to start college since I had gotten out of high school early but I didn't make the deadline and of course when I did get them all the information, the college of my choice at the time, screwed up my paperwork and I couldn't start. So I had to change my plans and it just made it even harder to for to get things together for myself.
But I finally did get back into school but only lasted a semester. :( Total fail!
But a couple of months later, I was back in school and in a program that lasted one year. I completed the program and graduated - on stage no less! - from the program. That's as far that I have gone with completing a program.

I have been bouncing back and forth to school at DeVry... but for some reason I cannot finish. :-( I can't figure out why. I really want to be back on stage getting my degree but I don't know what is holding me back from finishing it.

But nothing can be done about the things that are in the past... hopefully I can learn from my mistakes and move forward from it. 

Flash forward ... after being in two TERRIBLE and worthless relationships - which the only thing that I learned was that I am stronger than I thought about not wanting a relationship like that in my life - I spent 8 years of my life bouncing around; Not in a bad way at all... it was more going out with friends, meeting new people, letting go of some friendship (forging others), traveling to California, New York, Mexico and Puerto Rico during that time... 

I finally gave into the notion that I wasn't going to find anyone worthy of my time but that came to an end on a beautiful Sunday in May of 2006.
And to think that he wasn't going to be there that afternoon... I am so glad that you came out that day. My life hasn't been the same since... and I am thankful to God for that.

In the last, almost 7 years, I started dating a wonderful man, that I became engaged to in December of 2006, we traveled to Florida in 2007, we became husband and wife in May of 2008 then traveled to Puerto Rico and became parents of a beautiful little girl in April of 2010. We even traveled to Las Vegas in June of 2012. With many more adventures in between all those years and even more to come.

I finally found true happiness with my family... be it small or large... but no matter what, I have enjoyed every single moment of it. Both the good and the bad; it has shaped me into the person that I am today. The person that you see standing in front of you.

With so many years ahead of us, I look forward to sharing my life with my hubby and of course with our little wonder. We have so much to look forward to and enjoy. The universe will never be the same because we are in each other's lives.  

And with that, I have stepped back into my life in order to give you a glimpse of what my life was like - maybe even give you a little understanding of why I am the way that I am. It might not make sense, hell, I don't know if it does... but if you are confused, ask me about it and I will hopefully be able to explain something to you to help you along.

Well, here I was thinking that I wasn't going to be able to write anything today but I did. 
I guess I should get back to what I was originally doing.

Here are a few keys dates that I am looking forward to:

11/28 - picking up my running packet
12/01 - The Santa Hustle
12/02 - The Jewelry Show
12/09 - The Donner Dash (the princesses' 50-yard dash!)
12/10 - The Hubby's Birthday

And of course there are more on my calendar and it's only getting better!

Hasta la proxima!
