Brief Update

I figured it was about time for a new post.

One of my best friends got engaged over the weekend! I'm super happy for her and I already plan to come back in 2013 for her wedding!

Adam and I are still in this immigration process. Of course, these kinds of thing don't happen over night and we're aware that we shall be apart until probably August. Missing our 2nd wedding anniversary and my birthday but it will be worth it to finally be able to say "Never Again!".

I'm hunting for a new job and the job market is not very friendly. So far I've only been offered one job, working in a betting shop, which I had to turn down for numerous reasons. At this point, I'm looking for any kind of job that will help me pay bills and complete my immigration process. Thank goodness Adam is working in the US and he has a good job (something he couldn't find in London) because he's gonna buy me a new passport for our wedding anniversary. Since we got married in 09 I haven't had the spare funds to get my passport updated, of course now I need to have it done for when I immigrate. I guess you know that the honeymoon is over when you ask your spouse to buy you a passport for your wedding anniversary! lol! Though in our defence, we didn't actually have a honeymoon.

Today I enjoyed a very Fat Tuesday, ate lot's of pancakes dripping in Lemon juice and Sugar. Even rolled one with chocolate spread, delish. Tomorrow I'm getting back to the diet hard, gonna focus on weight loss for Lent. I know typically you give up bad foods but this year I've decided to give up these extra rolls of fat I'm carrying around.

Speaking of Lent, tomorrow I'm going to Church for Ash Wednesday. I cannot tell you the last time I went to Church and if I'm being honest, God and I haven't been having the best relationship of late. I want to work on it, one of us has to make the first move, so I'm going to Church and I'm gonna pray.

I have finally decided on career that I would love! Social Work. I'm not sure why I never thought of it before, especially considering I've always had such strong opinions in regards to providing children with the right starting blocks to succeed. Of course it means re-training and I have no idea about how the college system works in the US. How much it would cost. If it'd be eligible to get a loan. How to have my grades transferred over. There is a lot to think about but at least I know what I want to do...just have to make it happen.

I have an abundance of laundry to do and I'm about to start on my ironing whilst watching Glee, Hells Kitchen and Vampire Diaries.
