looking on the bright side

so aside from all of the stupid negativity that has been surrounding me lately, something great has happened...we finally have our own place and are in the process of fixing it up. it is a great distraction, and it makes me feel good to be able to look at the before-and-after and see what we have done with our own hands (and a lot of help). it is just exciting to know that we have some place to live when we get married and when we are done with it and ready to move somewhere else we can sell it so thats a major plus. just the little things that have been done so far have made such a difference and i cant wait to finally be able to move in and enjoy our hard work...two months just seems so far away but it will definitely be worth it. i have worked so hard all of my life to set myself up for success and this is the first step to making all of that planning and hard work pay off. :) well thats all for now.
