Wow! I havent updated this thing since August! And let me say that a LOT has happened! Through the months of September and October, Jon was very non-existent but the navy will do that to you. But within the first couple of days in November I FINALLY had my husband home frequently to enjoy and now we really truly are getting adapted to the married life. November 15 we were FINALLY able to get Jon's gallbladder moved. It was supposed to be a simple in and out procedure but unfortunately there was a small complication and we stayed in the hospital for 2 days. When the doctor removed the gallbladder, he thought he nicked a bile duct and so to insure that everything was ok, he put in a JP drain to make sure it wasnt leaking. We were able to go home and Jon was pretty much stuck to the couch and the bed. But that was to be expected. The surgery was on Tuesday we went home Thursday and then we had a job interview on Tuesday in Waynesboro, GA that he had to be at. We still had the JP drain in when we headed up north. But he did his interview and the drain came out the next day! He was so very happy to get it out and so was I. Then that same day, we headed up to Delaware to spend Thanksgiving with my family up there. It was a nice roadtrip I was able to take with my family and my husband. 2011 was a year full of firsts!
Jon got a job offer! The company he had an interview with, gave him a job offer and he of course accepted. He was so happy and I was so very relieved. And we then began the process of finding a place to live! We took a weekend to look at quite a few different homes but we found one that we have fallen completely in love with and we are in the process of buying our first home together! Now that Christmas has come and gone and the new year is here, 2012 is going to be another year of many firsts just like 2011 was.
Now that 2012 is here, we will be moving out of our apartment this month and moving in with my parents and I will be staying with them permanently until I finish school. We will have to put things into a storage unit until we can get a place to live in Waynesboro and Jon can start his job so the next couple of months will be busy and hectic but I think its worth it! I will start a new job this week that I am ECSTATIC about! So far Im very excited for the things 2012 will bring.
