Stuff.

I have started a few blog posts over the past week. So much has been going on. Some of it good and some not so good. My amazing friend Heather's husband came home from Afghanistan. Husband and I treated ourselves with an early Christmas gift. The Xbox Kinect is stinkin' AMAZING. Sort of creepy, but once you get past the fact that this is really watching your every move...it is such a fun game. Husband gave me an early birthday present (21 on the 21st!) the Biggest Loser Xbox kinect game, seriously such an amazing work out. I felt "the burn" way more then the wii fit ever did.
Then there were some not so good moments. Moments where I cried the minute husband got home desperately needing his comfort. I have debated on whether or not I would use this as my outlet for venting. But after much talk with husband I have decided to as my husband put it "be the bigger woman" and move on.
I am at a place in my life where I need to surround myself with uplifting positive people. I am fully aware that sometimes we have crappy things that happen in our lives. It happens. I get it. I came to the conclusion the other night that...I am not barbie, I don't need fake friends. I prefer real friends. Positive people who can support and love me. I don't believe that is too much to ask.
On that note...
I am so excited for Thanksgiving. It will be the first one(I know...I know) with husband home and I couldn't be more excited. We have decided to enjoy this time with each other while we can. I really am looking forward to it. Husband and I are buying are very first Christmas tree this year! We have decided on a fake tree, because we do live in an apartment and neither one of us wants to deal with pine needles and sap. Husband is still getting a kick out of seeing all the Christmas goodness popping up. It has been a while for him. He is all set to decorate the day after thanksgiving... in fact I have a feeling he might be doing it once the turkey is put away. :)
