Finally!

Well, it's official. I have a blog. I've been wanting one lately to kinda write down my thoughts and to do updates about my life. There's been a lot on my mind lately. I've been missing my family a lot lately. All it takes is moving 3 hours away to realize how good you have it somewhere else. Don't get me wrong, I like living on my own with my best friend Kara. I love my job at Home Depot, I love the WEATHER! I love being able to spend time with my friends down here. But it would be nice to see my family more. I have the best family I could ask for. I have grandparents that I'm super close to and that would do anything for me. My mom is one of my best friends. My dad is the best teddy bear. I have 3 older siblings that, even though they love to remind me that I'm still the baby, take care of me and treat me like I'm a friend, not just a sister. And I love the in-laws too. I'm so grateful that all my siblings have someone that they love and are happy. I have 11 of the BEST nieces and nephews in the world. I absolutely LOVE being Aunt Marci. We really have the best kids in the world. Luckily I get to go home this weekend and see everyone. Gotta get some of that Grandma's cookin'. haha.

Today I'm also missing someone. I came across a couple of old pictures on facebook of one of my brother's best friends from school. His name was Sam McCoy. He was another one of my big brothers growing up. He passed away a few years back. I haven't thought about him in awhile but I saw those pictures today and it made me remember how much I loved him when I was younger. He was probably one of my very favorite people in the world.

But it's not all sad and sorrows today. I am lucky enough to have one of the good guys as my boyfriend. His name is Eric and I adore him. He just got moved into his new apartment this past weekend. Much help from me, might I add. Haha. I think I've spent almost as much time in the new place as he has. Maybe even more. It's pretty much done. A guy we work with is giving him a washer and dryer so he has to go pick that up sometime. And another guy has a table for him so he's gotta get that sometime. He's gotta put together his closet today and then the bedroom will be done. The bathroom is done. The kitchen will be one he gets the washer/dryer. Then's there's the spare bedroom that is a disaster area. But it's all car parts and tools and stuff that I have no idea about so I'm not touching it.

Well I don't know how regular I'll be about writing in this but I'll try. First Blog entry.... Done. :)
