Well I have been busy since my last blog.

I have enrolled at the National University of Health Sciences. I am going to go to massage therapy school. I REALLY like where I work right now (a chiropractic office in Elmhurst). The two doctors that I work for are a blast. If all works out, I will be able to work out of the office that I work at now. The pay will not only be per hour, but I will make a percentage on what the massage therapy end of the office makes. Guess I finally figured out what I would like to be when I grow up. Dave told me that if anyone asks me for a "happy ending" say NO!! LOL.

Dave is in Texas doing hurricane clean up. The money is pretty decent, but I don't think he will be there much longer. We are much better when we are together. Our lives work better.

I got a new tattoo. I also added to one of my other ones. The add on is a heart that I added to my blackbird tattoo. The blackbird is important because it is all the things that I need to remind myself of every day so that I don't forget them or take advantage of them. I added a heart to this. It is to remind me to keep my love special and precious and always close to my heart.

The new tattoo is a 3/4 armband (Yeah, OMG I didn't think I would get an armband either). I really love it. It is feminine and simple. If you really care, ask me and I will show it to you.

Had a great time over Halloween. We carved pumpkins and had a blast. I have gone out a few times with my friends while Dave has been gone.

This past Friday though was UNDOUBTEDLY the topper. I was able to relax (in a BIG way), laugh, drink a little, smile ALOT and spend some time with a friend that means so much to me. It always seems to pleasantly surprise me how spending time with a special friend can make a person remember who they are (you know DEEP DOWN). I also realized this same Friday how much Ray Charles and Norah Jones voices compliment each other. "Heeeereee we goooo again. One more tiiime again."

Don't worry all, Be Happy.
