LiveJournal version 2.0

I used to have a LJ in high school... this seems to be the new version of that. Let's hope I can keep up with this like I did that one - I was pretty good at it.

We have been married for over 2 months now (really?) and things couldn't be going any better. Marriage is definitely a work-in-progress, but I have to say that when both sides are giving 100%, it's really not that difficult overall. At the end of the day, you love each other and have more fun than not, and that's all that matters. A lot of prayer, patience and faith. And marry your best friend - that's really important.

Toilet seat? Eh, we're still working on it....

We have a little 2-bedroom apartment in Sanford now, just outside of Lake Mary, that I've been working hard to make feel as "homey" as possible without it being an actual house. Josh has his own room - the man room - that is a lifesaver! I can just shut the door and never have to see the mess of everything we can't get rid of, because it's "important" somehow. I still don't understand how I managed to let that futon upstairs... but at least it's in there where no one can see it! =) We still wish we had a backyard for Abby, but everything takes time. We're off to a good start, nonetheless.

This weekend is Drill, but I'm going with Josh this time to meet some of the people in his unit and their wives. I haven't been down to Clearwater with him since before the wedding and I really miss going - it's such a nice weekend getaway for me, laying the pool, shopping.... whilst the hubby is working. Sad for him, great for me. During the wedding planning process I would take projects down with me to work on in the hotel - I believe I finished my aisle runner, kids' shirts and door letters on the floor of the Hampton Inn over the past year.

Speaking of the wedding process - what a long road that was. I keep saying this, but I'm glad all that is over. I'm so happy with how everything turned out, but I was always so much more excited to start our life together (finally) and for the "future." The fact that it's here now and we're living it makes me so happy. Some days I wake up thinking it's not real (sappy, I know).
