Settling Into Life

Growing up I was kind of a messy kid..Ive been watching the show Hoarders, and thinking I could NEVER be like that but i remember how my room was before my dad would have to come in and help me clean it up! It was bad but not THAT bad but I swore that whenever I moved out and had my own space that I would never live like that! Since the whole wedding and all the stuff of moving in and getting things cleaned up and in a place its been hard!! We have come to realize that between the 2 of us we had a lot of stuff!! It was a lot easier to fill up this apartment that I thought it would be, I dont really know if thats really such a good thing lol cause we are running out of space lol but just means we need to go through things because honestly when I moved Jon into the apartment, he was out to sea so there were quite a few boxes that he never and still hasn't gone through. So maybe when I can get him home for longer than a day we can get some things gone and maybe sell them lol we could always use some extra cash on the side to pay off the credit card! ha
Today I feel accomplished though! I got up this morning and went and worked out, finished paying all the bills (somehow I managed to lose the water bill somewhere! I know I saw it when it came but then when I went to find it, definitely couldnt find it anywhere so had to go ask), cleaned up all the trash in the house, and have now started making dinner.... Hopefully it wont be a dinner for one tonight but if it is its all good, Ill just snuggle up on the couch and watch some netflix! Oh the fun timessss lol

Last night was a good night though, Jon had duty yesturday so I was alone all day but my friend Amy Tortoriello who was the first wife our the division to take me under her wing! During one of the guys deployments, she took me under her wing. It was my first 4 month deployment and I honestly had no idea what to expect then. But she helped...BIG TIME! we spent a lot of time together and started going to spin class about once a week (which is a GREAT workout if youve never tried it before)! but anyway Amy helped  that deployment not be as terrible for me as it could have been. During that deployment, her husband Joel made cheif and they got orders to another boat in New Hampshire!!! It sucked! Big time cause she was one of my very few navy friends but she was the one I definitely talked to all the time who helped the most! and she left me (not by choice) lol she came into town this week and I was dieing to see her! so we went to Peppers out in Yulee and one of the guys bought a round of tequila...Im not a fan of tequila lol but i took the shot anyway and I can honestly say...Im still not a fan lol But it was great to finally hang out with her again...its always a great time. One thing we talked about last night that I wont forget is she feels like she helped shape me into a navy wife and honestly she did! She was a major help in helping me understand how things work and how to help Jon and what not and I dont think I can thank her enough nor do I know what I would do without her and it was so good to finally see her again!
And while I was cleaning today I finally went through a box of hangers that was given to me by my good friend Nicole Hawkins who took me under her wing after Amy left cause the guys went out on another deployment 3 months later and she helped me stay busy too we hung out a lot! But they were in the process of waiting for her husband to get orders to transfer to shore duty so I lost her too...but in their moving process she finally found a box of hangers that she had been saying whenever she found it she would give it to us cause they didnt need them anymore i was thinking it was going to be a little box  but it was a cup box that was hugee and there were a tonnn of hangers in there...I have NO need to go buy hangers which I am extremelyyy thankful for lol
Ive met some great people so far in my military experience and I would love to meet more and make new friends because unfortunately a lot of the friends I have made have moved away :(
Overall its been a pretty good week :) I turned 21 and got to see a friend who I havent seen in  a while and I feel quite accomplished today lol
Now the only thing that would help make this day even better.....would be my husband coming home ;) lol
