...because that means it is almost Saturday and on Saturday I get to head back out to BEAUTIFUL San Diego! And to top it off, I am taking Monday off so I will get another 3 day weekend! Oh I so cannot wait! And that also means that I will only have a few weeks left at my job....which I am so looking forward to!
Work has been stressing me out major! I dread coming to work every morning cause I know it is going to give me a huge headache and the other nurse I work with is going to generally annoy the hell out of me! I was talking to our receptionist earlier today and I said something to the effect of, "I hope you enjoy her when I leave...things are really going to get bad!" Meaning the other nurse can't do anything without asking me for help first. And she has been here longer than I have! I totally don't get it. Well our receptionist said that she better get over that cause I won't be here to ask. Then she said something about me having an aggressive personality. I never thought I had an aggressive personality. It kind of caught me off gaurd...oh well. To each his own!
I am so excited about San Diego this weekend! The weather...the sun...the beach! Not that I will get to go to the beach or anything, but still...I will be darn close! Our realtor's office is right off the beach so I can at least see it, right? I am so excited to see the houses I have been looking at. I want to get an offer in on a house so bad. I hate not knowing if we are going to have a place ready or not. I hope we can time it to where when we have the inspection Daniel will be out there checking out of his ECRC unit, and then that way I won't have to buy another ticket out there.
Speaking of my lovie....he is due home very soon!! I have been able to talk to him the last 2 nights and it has been so great. I love being able to hear his voice. He has night watch all this week so that means that he is more on OK time and we get to talk more. His replacement comes in either next week or the week after and we are both ready for it. He wants to get the guy trained quickly so he can take it easy the rest of his deployment.
But I am at work right now and so ready to get off....I have to go mail my California nursing license packet off after work, get some stuff from Wally World and then go to the gym and tan. I have another session with my trainer tomorrow so I need to get my butt in high gear!! So I am going to jump off here now and get back to the grind....
TTFN!

Blah, blah, blah....
So here it is...Memorial Day weekend and I am sitting at home with our two dogs, bored out of my mind!! I am so ready for Daniel to be home so that I can see him everyday and not have to wonder when I get to talk to him next or calculate the time difference to where he is and here at home. Before when he lived in Virginia, it was no big deal. I could pick up the phone at anytime and just call him. Now I have to wait for him to call me, email me, message me, etc. He will be home just any time now, although I can't say exactly when due to security purposes, but it is way soon. I am so unbelieveably excited and I can barely contain myself. I am ready to live my husband. I feel like it has been forever since we were able to see each other everyday. And in reality it has been forever. Since he has been in the Navy now for almost 5 years, the most we have really seen each other is just a few weeks at a time. This summer was an exception and we got to spend almost 2 solid months together. It was absolutely wonderful and I wish it was that time again this year.
So with all that being said, I am heading out to Cali again next weekend. I am hoping to find "THE" house and put an offer on it. I found one last time that I loved, but it was already sold basically. Well I found one that is just the opposite layout, same neighborhood, well within our price and everything that we want, yet still room for us to make some improvements if we desire. So I hope it is still avaliable by next weekend so that I can go look at it and make an offer. It has been on the market almost a year so i hope that will get us some negotiating room with the price.
The edition and surrounding area is so gorgeous! It is in a town called Chula Vista, and is nestled in the mountains but still 30 minutes from the beach and base. The neighborhood is so cute and it seems to be perfect for a new growing family. At least I hope we will be a growing family shortly after we get there.. :D But never-the-less, I am so ready to be there, get settled and start fixing my new house. I can't wait to decorate, hang pictures, possibly paint walls...all that fun home-maker kind of stuff. I plan on getting Daniel a grill for our anniversary and I can't wait to use it out there. The night we move in, I wanna have a cook out with the new friends that we have. Well, new to me at least. Daniel happens to know a guy out there who was with him in Virginia and I met his wife and their kids. So I want to have a cook out as our first night there. But I think we might need to get a fridge first! It seems as though none of the houses out there come with fridges!! Haha!
Well I guess that is all the rambling I have for now...lord knows I could come up with more later!!
TTFN!

Super long week!!
Wow...so I am already really bad at this whole blogging thing! My excuse is just going to be that it has been a crazy week!! After my first post, everything just went south!
Wednesday, I drove to Tulsa with my cousin Karsten to go see our grandma. She is in the hospital right now and not doing so fabulous. She fell and broke all the bones in the top of her foot a few weeks ago. She had surgery and had pins put in. She went to a nursing home, which she hated because she wants to be independent, and I can't blame her for that. Well something happened while she was in the nursing home and now she is in the hospital and her sodium is too low. She is holding onto fluids, so she is being fluid restricted and she just sounds horrible. That was quite a day and as sad as it sounds I was ready to leave Tulsa and get back home. I have never been a big fan of Tulsa so I was more than ready to leave. By the time we got back to my apartment that night, it was pretty late and I should have been in bed about 2 hours before we got back so that I would have been able to function at work.
Thursday, I got up went to work, had a shitty day because the other nurse I work with is an idiot and keeps screwing up on stuff. I swear she doesn't need to be here because she messes up on everything, then I get in trouble for it. I am so ready to quit this job and get out to Cali.
Speaking of which, I am so ready to get back out there next weekend. Delia is going to come get me from the airport and I think we might go out that night while her hubs stays home with the kiddos. She is pretty awesome and we had a blast last time I was out there. Then the next day I will go house hunting again and...fingers crossed...I find something!
But that is about all that is going on now...I am at work, so I guess I should probably jump off here and get back to it... :P

My first.....
Ok so here goes nothing! This is my first post. I thought I would finally jump on the blogging bandwagon and record our soon to be life together!
Daniel and I have been together just over 8 years. We are high school sweethearts and have spent the last 5 years apart. We are in the process of purchasing our first home. Or should I say I am in the process of buying our first home. Daniel is currently on his second deployment and should be home in no time at all!!
We are moving to California and are house hunting while still living in OK. And it is not easy at all! I never thought buying our first home would be like this. I always imagined it being the 2 of us with a realtor going from home to home, finding it together and then signing all the paperwork together. Maybe i just have this very romantic image in my head, but hey...I am a girl. What did you expect.
Daniel is basically trusting me to pick it out. He knows that I will be picky about everything so maybe that is why he is so confident about it. I just hope the whole process goes smoothly and that he is as happy with it as I know I will be.
I guess that is about all I have for now. I have some fun cleaning and laundry to do right now, so I probably should scamper off now and take care of all of those fun domestic type things!!!
TTFN!
