Just Enough Time

Well the time has come that I will be doing my last entry from this computer and the next time I do another entry will be when I am in WA. Lots has been going on since I wrote in this blog last. My replacement has done a great job in learning my job and I feel comfortable enough to leave the company and not feel guilty. My company gave me a bridal shower last Thursday and I must say that Alejandro and I are truly blessed and very thankful. On top of that I had a small "Anchors Away" party at a house sitting client of mine and we got some really nice stuff at that party also.

I never thought I would ever say this about the company I work for now. I am going to miss everyone that I have been in contact with each the last 5 1/2 years. It is has been a hard week for me and I know the next two days is going to be even harder. After saying goodbye to the people I work with everyday, then it will be time to say goodbye to my parents. I know I will see them in June, but this is the first time I am leaving the nest to so speak.

Well I should get going now. Until next time when I am settled in WA....

Update and Lots Of Work

I thought I would take a chance to update this site on all that has been happening. As you can tell we had a great time at the Space Needle for a late Valentine's Day dinner a couple of weeks ago. I am going there again this weekend, so I can leave some more stuff up there and spend sometime with him I thought. Well he was changed to another section and they have to work this weekend. Which sucks for him because he just worked this past weekend and his chief said tough. The good thing is that he is off Friday and he is going to get sometime off on Saturday night and Sunday afternoon to take me to the airport. March 19th, I didn't get to finish this entry before I left for the weekend, so I thought I would continue it now. I had a nice relaxing weekend. He did get sometime off this weekend for me so that was nice. We bought a bed on friday and boy is it nice to sleep in.

I am now getting ready for the big move and my going away party this coming Sunday that I have known and house sat for a long time is giving it to me. I started packing up my office a little bit ago of all my personal stuff. Well I should get back to work now. I will keep you updated as soon as I can. Until next time...

SO MUCH GOING ON

So much has happened since I updated this website, that I thought I better do it now. April 6th will be my last day working for Ganz. I have been with this company for almost 6 years now and it is going to be hard, but I am glad that I am leaving when I am. They have found a replacement for me which will make the transition a lot easier because she will be able to shadow me until I do leave. Hopefully they will start looking for someone to replace her before I leave so she can start training that person and all. I plan on moving to WA around April 9th only a couple of days after I leave Ganz and that is because starting April 19th Alejandro will be out to sea for 3 weeks.

My office manager just threw me off by telling me that the company wants to give me a Bridal Shower. I am very surprised by that since I won't be getting married right after I leave the company. I am really flattered by this and honored that they are doing this for me. I guess almost working for the company 6 years helps that.

I will try to make it a point to update this more. I need to try to get some more work done before I leave for the day. Until next time...

It's Official

What a way to celebrate the Holidays. I am officially off the market now. I got engaged December 23rd at California Adventures and not Disneyland like I wanted. The place that we had reservations for was there instead of Disneyland. Also by the time that it happened we were so tired of walking around and also double checking to make sure the ring was in my purse that we just decided.

I think what makes it even better is the fact that this great couple got engaged also this Christmas. This is my sister and her now fiancé, my future Brother-In-Law Bryan. I was the only one that knew that they were going to be engaged by Christmas this year and we had a wonderful Holiday. My wedding is going to be August 25th(hopefully?) of this year. Their wedding is going to be sometime in 2008. They haven't set a date yet. Alejandro had a great time with my family around the Holidays. In fact, he felt really comfortable with everyone and I am glad that he felt that way because he was making a big stink of it before hand. My family really likes him and even if they didn't, then they don't have to be at our wedding.
I know the other thing that made it special was that my cousin Stephanie and her son Nicholas showed up on Christmas Day for the 1st time in over 10 years. She looks great and everyone accepted her like I knew they would. I know they were so happy to see her and that she was there for the holidays. See when her parents got divorced it was a big mess, but the most important thing is that she is back in our lives now and that is all that matters.

A couple of days before New Years Alejandro and I drove back up to WA. We made a stop at my Uncle John and Aunt Diane's house in Sonora and stayed one night. That was a very nice visit and they got to know him a little bit more. I think he was more surprised by them opening up their door to us for one night, so we could get a good nights rest. We made it into WA almost a whole day late, but we did have a nice drive and we didn't kill each other.

New Year's Eve we laid low and that was because we were both really tired from the trip. I made him dinner that night and then we just enjoyed each others company the rest of the night. New Year's Day we stayed at home for a little bit and then went to the Woodland Park Zoo. It was a cold day that day but we had a nice time and it was worth it to go and see another Zoo and get out of his apartment for a little bit.

The last day I was there he had to work, but his co-worker let him leave after lunch so we got some last minute time together. I also spent most of the day cooking and cleaning the apartment a little bit so that helped keep me busy. Well I should end this. Until next time...
