A Hiatus from the Hiatus

Hello to all my six or seven faithful followers :)

It's been so long since I've written. I'm a bad blogger. Bad.

I will tell you all of the normal, cliched excuses--family emergencies, my dog ate the computer keyboard, I joined the Peace Corps....

Actually, the truth is, I've just been slacking. I would wake up in the middle of the night and think, I should blog about this thought, but then alas my sleeping pill kicks in, and I awaken in six hours or so with zero thoughts of blogs. I promise I'll be better.

So, what's new... Well, I got a second job. A second job means more money for Mr. Navy and I, which is great--I mean who doesn't like more money, right? It also means less time for blogging and my favorite...house cleaning. The house used to be spotless when I had only one job. Dishes were always done, the living room was organized and dusted, and the laundry was always done. Mr. Navy always had a clean, new towel every morning for his shower and clean socks for his toesies. I am finding it so much harder to keep up with now. Now, our living room has about 12 pairs of shoes scattering its surface, clean laundry is still piled up on the recliner, the iron and ironing board is facing the TV, and papers are scattered all over the place.

So when I'm not working two jobs or washing Mr. Navy's towels(what kind of person can't reuse a towel two days in a row????) and socks, I am trying to plan a wedding. I still don't have a date set yet. What's this, four months and counting? No, I'm not trying to set a Guinness Book of World Records for being the biggest wedding slacker. I am trying to figure out how to have the wedding of my dreams--and be able to pay for it. It's no easy task. I have been researching venues, caterers, photographers, DJs and bank loan opportunities like crazy. However, I think I am finally inching towards a venue choice. Stay tuned.

So, when I'm not working two jobs, washing towels/doing housework or planning a wedding, I'm pursuing my Bachelor's Degree in Communications full time. I have papers due every week, not to mention a 10 page paper due every five weeks, weekly quizzes and discussion board postings. Only one year left though!

So when I'm not working two jobs, washing and cleaning, planning the wedding and going to school full time, I'm researching adopting a puppy. Am I crazy???????

So that's all folks. Really, I've just been busy. Really busy. I'll try to keep up with it more though.
