Life or something like it

It is currently October 11th. There are 18 more days well 17 considering today is basically over till my 21st birthday. There are 20 until the end of the month, also know as Halloween, which is our deadline for moving or staying. Normally I look forward to Halloween with everything inside me. I mean HELLO free candy, what is better than that? I can't really think of much. But this Halloween I wish would just take its time coming. I want to have that yummy FREE candy right now. It would make the thought of the end of the month a little less, but my tummy would probably hate me.

Still no news about whether we are going to move or not. I have a feeling that we are going to move and I have become more and more ok with the idea. In fact I am starting to think that it is a good thing. We will see how long that feeling lasts if we actually move in with my in laws....

Fresno = Death

Well I feel like that sometimes, although it does have a nice temple there so I guess it is not that bad. SO here is the update of what is going on with Orion and I. Last month Orion got laid off, well I guess you can say that, his boss does not have a lot of work coming in so he told Orion that he was no longer needed. But once he got more work and could afford to pay Orion he could come back. Well that was a month ago. Now Orion and I are both jobless in an economy that does not really want to hire :( Ever since we have gotten that news we have been looking for work, mostly Orion because I am going to school full time online and that takes up most of my day, and we have found nothing. Instead of burning through all of our savings from us working like crazy over the summer. I had two jobs and went to school full time while Orion worked full time and did side work, we managed to save up for a new car that we hoped to buy this fall. Instead we are spending that money on paying rent and buying food. We have decided to move to FRESNO with Orion's parents at the end of the month if Orion does not find a new job. :( :( :( :( :( x a billion is how I feel at the moment. But there are more opportunities for jobs out there and we would not have to pay for rent or food.

To be honest it is rather stressful to be us right now, but we know that everything will work out in the end. We are praying and hoping things will work out soon. Actually this lack of money has made Orion and I much closer and more inventive when it comes to food. We are also loving sleeping until we wake up instead of waking up to an alarm. All in all we are pretty happy but stressed.

A Little Secret

I do NOT like girls singers, basically at all. EXCEPT Taylor Swift. I know its a weird secret but I absolutely love her! Another secret I don't like country either except Taylor Swift. I swear I can listen to her all day long. This is currently my favorite song of hers.

Carmel Corn

My very first attempt at carmel popcorn! It is so good! I have to say that I am pretty proud of myself. I am working on being a good house wife by baking and cooking more. So far it has been going pretty good. I will post pictures of wonderful success stories of food I have made. I am not going lie if something I make is gross or looks funny there will be no proof of it, just so you know.

A Different Name for the Same Thing

Over the past few weeks I have reconnected with people in my life. Friends that I use to be so close to seemed like strangers to me only weeks ago. I had no idea what was really going on with them or what plan they had for the future. I guess getting married does that to you. The closeness to my friends started going on the back burned when I decided to get married. Suddenly it was more important to me to figure out what I needed to do to better prepare myself for marriage, I mean come on I was making the biggest decision of my life and deciding to spend eternity with someone. This made it hard for me to relate to boy drama of dating or talking about short term things. My focus was on much different things. My close friends sensed this I think and started retreating. At first I did not notice, but slowly I realized that when I really needed my friends they had all but faded away. But now things have changed. I still can't really relate to dating drama and awkward situations with boys because I am no longer living that life. When you are married your perspective changes, so you become less interested in juicy dating stories and more interested in spending time with your husband. I feel like my friends have now seen that me being married has changed me, but for the better. We just talk about different things now, which at one point before I was married I thought that could never happen.

So here is to all my friends that I have reconnected with, who never really left at all. Thanks for giving me space to figure out what was important to me and how much you mean to me. Here is a picture from the past with one of my oldest and dearest friends. I think we were junior's in high school.

What Dreams May Come

Have you seen this movie? I know it is a little old, it came out in the 90's. Its younger than me so I guess it is not that old. It is really good in my opinion. I guess this movie hits home a little more for me know that I am married. The basis of the movie is the husband (Robin Williams) goes to Hell to find his wife. His wife committed suicide after Robin Williams dies. I know what you are thinking, Kayde this does not sound like a good movie at all. Just wait it gets better, I promise. SO he goes to Hell to save his wife, or stay with her in Hell because he wants to be with her no matter what. He leaves Heaven to go to Hell just so he can be with his wife, now that is a committed husband. In the movie their love is so strong that it can bring the wife out of the depths of Hell because they are soul mates. Orion and I watched this movie last night and I cried. I asked Orion if he would give up Heaven to be with me if I am stuck in Hell. What he said was really cute "Being with you is Heaven no matter where we are". Aww I love my husband. So I am about to ruin the end of the movie, Robin Williams ends up saving his wife and bringing her to Heaven, where their children are. I forgot to mention the kids were killed in a car accident four years before the husband died. Anyways the reason I like this movie so much is that it expresses the fact that true love conquers all, even in death. I know I am little bit cheesy, but I just cant help myself.
