Today is my Aniversary
So we moved... Again. Now we are in Boise. We have Lillie (my 10 year old step daughter) over on the weekends :D I love having her in my life. She is so sweet and loving.
Moving to boise has been rough. We didn't have enough money to rent two trucks to haul all our crap so we ended up throwing away thousands in items. :-( The rest we mostly had to store at my parents and then we moved here with a uhaul containing furniture electronics and clothing. (but almost nothing else) So for the past 2 months we have been camping in our home. With 3 plates a few forks, one pot to cook in... etc lol.
The other day my parents packed up the stuff I was storing at their house and brought me up a uhaul. They also brought up all the things I had in my old bedroom closet. (childhood coin collection, journals, photos, art!) Its been so fun to see all my old things. It's like Christmas!
Our bussiness is not doing very well right now. This is because we can't look for orders when we have no supplies, we can't buy supplies without money, and money comes from orders. BAH! But we have a plan to get things rolling again. I spent 2 days making a bunch of super awesome looking advertisements and they should bring in a lot of business. We're going to advertise on facebook too.
Our boise friends are much different than our pocatello friends were. 99% of our friends in pocatello were long time friends of mine, and recent friends of Dallins. Now it's the oposite. I feel sort of like Im the odd one out sometimes. but his friends are wonderful people.
So I am in the transition of meat-eater to vegetarian. For both health and philosophical reasons. I'm all into organics and being aware of what is in my foods. It surprised me to find out that nutritional classes are rarely taken and given much thought. Yet you need to eat to live. A lot of my friends think I'm nutty when I say things like "yeah did you know that sunflower seeds help improve your mood!" I'm being seen as a radical thinker now, which is unsavory but I guess to be expected. On the other end, my health is better, my mood is better, and I have dropped SO much weight. I haven't had a scale since before I started this diet so Im not sure where i'm at but I can see a huge difference in the way I look and the way things fit me. Im going to have to sell a lot of my clothes because some of my favorite outfits are now hanging off me. I DO NOT MIND! :D I love that Dallin is as into this as I am. We both learn all sorts of things and are constantly being like "woah! did you know that....." to each other. It's fun.
we had a big fight a few weeks ago. Everything came to a boiling point and we argued and then I took off with a female friend so I could calm down. Since then we have been actively working on diagnosing and solving the things that were irking us. It's been wonderful. I feel like I have a healthy connection and relationship with my husband again. (and the sex is fantastic :D)
I long for more connection though, I miss being close friends with some of the people from my past like Jessica. I miss her everyday. She really still feels like a sister to me, but we have grown apart. The weird thing is she and I still are doing similar things. She's searching for her brand of spirituality as well, she has become vegitarian, and was working on starting her own company, she's into the same ideas of hippie green save the planet. Perhaps our paths will cross again.
Today for our anniversary we went to the park for lunch and fed the geese. It was awesome!!! 3 years married, 4 years together!
