It's a little bittersweet because I'll have to leave Florida, where Devin is, and move in back in (temporarily) with my dad and step mom. It'll work out better that way because then I won't have to stress about having a job that will pay for living expenses and bills. I can just focus on bills. (Who said being a grown up is fun anyways?!)
Work has been NUTS! NUTS I TELL YOU! I am now head of customer service and they want me to run a separate office of only customer service. I have never moved up so fast in a job than this one. Since things were just starting out when I first got hired, they needed people to move up as things got bigger and they got bigger FAST!
We went home for a weekend a couple of weeks ago for Devin's cousin Mercedes' wedding. It was beautiful. It was super TEXAS hot but it was beautiful. Also, it was the shortest weekend known to man so needless to say we a bit upset that we couldn't stay longer. We'd thought about going home for Thanksgiving but plane tickets are espensive!!! ( must say with spanish accent, no offense) We are still working out what we are going to do for Thanksgiving. Devin would like to go for a motorcycle ride to Timbuktu while I would like to go for a ride to the outlet mall. :)
The Florida weather is getting cooler so it's more enjoyable to take a ride on the motorcycle now. A couple of months ago we almost had heat strokes because of how hot it was sitting at the stoplights to go from our house to blockbuster 7 miles down the road. We just did a Ride for the Cure for Breast Cancer Awareness last weekend and the weather was amazing! Sooooo Devin decided let's go down to Miami and then Key West for Thanksgiving since he has a 4 day weekend. Let's just say these plans are still in the making...
You see there is this "bridge" or as I call it "THE BRIDGE OF NO RETURN". I don't know I have this 'thing' with bridges, especially HIGH bridges. For example, ALL my San Antonio peeps, y'all know the new connector highway thingymagig that they built to help traffic out for people traveling down 1604 towards Stone Oak that connects them to 281 heading towards the airport. Well that overpass is SERIOUSLY the highest thing in the entire world! I feel like I am going to fall off the face of the earth everytime I get on there. I accidentally took it once because I didn't know they added that when I moved back. Then Devin took it out on the motorcycle when we were going to Embassy Movie Theater and purposely rode the shoulder so I would be even more freaked out! OH MY HOLY JESUS! Now I will take the exit to wait at the light and then go wayyy up to get onto 281 just so I don't have to use that overpass. So since to drive from Miami to Key West there is this bridge that is like 100 miles long I am a bit skeptical.
Again, we are still making the plans :)
Quick Family updates:
My grandma aka Momo just turned 91. Janna pierced her nose and then FINALLY decided to take that crazy thing out because she was getting a keloid inside her nostril. My dad and Karen are still living up the retired life. Devin is enjoying school and continuing to be the lovable, pain in my rump, bbq master, caring husband he always is. Devin's parents and Memaw are doing well as well as his brother Brodie. Tish and Jules and the kids just moved to Tennessee and are getting adjusted.Nothing real exciting is going on in the Monaco household. Hope I didn't bore ya too much :)
Remember:
Always pray to have eyes that see the best in people, a heart that forgives the worst, mind that forgets the bad and a soul that never loses faith in God.
