Hello everyone! I'm posting to let everyone know I'm still alive. I hate that I can't be on here nearly as much as I want. I miss everyone!

So a mini update on my life, I'm working now at a gas station very close to the house I'm living in. It's quite literally a 30 minute walk from the house. I'm working with friends, and I'm very grateful to be enjoying my time out here in Mississippi. This job has taken alot of stress off of my shoulders. Having my own steady pay check (no matter how small) helps me relax and not worry so much about bills.

My fiance and I are doing well. We have our fights (who doesn't?), but we always work things out and try to move forward. My fiance has five weeks till he is supposed to ship for the Marines, and I've been praying he makes this date. He's been trying for years to get into the military; now he's finally chosen a branch. All he needs to do is lose about 10-15 pounds and pass one of two initial strength tests before May 12, and he's good to go. His problem? He's lazy and hates running. But I promised him that if he doesn't pass this next IST (which is tomorrow), I will help him more by walking/running with him every day that I don't have night shift. I'll admit he has alot on his plate especially with working 48 hours a week at a place he hates plus dealing with so much b.s. from his mother (something we both deal with). I want to help him as much as possible, and I will. He's going into the Marines to better himself, and I'm going to help.

On the artistic side of my life, I'm working on a major watercolor project for my best friend. I've taken five photos of her and her loved ones and combined them into a collage watercolor project. I've put eight hours into it so far. I think I should only have 3-4 more hours to go, then I'll be finished. As soon as I'm done, I'll be sure to post it here. :)

That's all for now. I hope everyone is doing well! I miss you guys!!! <3
