All things February...

It's been over a month since I've last blogged (and, EUREKA! I didn't begin my post with So... !!!) and I decided it was about time to check in again.

Things are better than ever now, save for the fact that I'm broke. But that too shall pass.
I started my new job at Pennrose Management Company... I've been here almost 5 weeks, and I really am enjoying it! It makes me think, and keeps me busy, which is nice because the days fly by.

Dave and I are moving into Phoenixville in a little over 3 weeks, and we're very excited about it. we've since bought a couch and a bedroom set, so we have the beginnings of what will be a very lovely home, I'm sure! We're both so psyched... as much as the legacy of Fatti and Fatty will be sorely missed, it'll be really nice to live together officially. We even have a phone number now! Granted it won't be working until February 18th, but it exists!

The whole being engaged thing has been a lot of fun and very exciting, but reality has sunk in. As a matter of fact, I'm really not all that excited about planning this wedding right now- with everything else going on, it seems like a hassle. I mean I'm sure it'll be wonderful and fun and a great bonding experience for me and my mom, but I'll give it a few months before I really worry about it at this point. Lin and Pete are having an engagement party for us in April, so maybe by then I'll be a little more wedding-minded. The first month was blissful, but now it's time to face reality and realize that we're not getting married for 17 months, so maybe we should focus on some other stuff! (and by we, I mean me... because Dave could hardly care less about the details! Ha!)

He just started his new job this week at ING, and so far, loves it! He's excited because for the first time in a very long time he's using his skills in math and his brain, and he feels confident working for a big company that hopefully will allow him to go places eventually. That, and his real estate classes are great and he is just so excited about the whole process. I am just so unbelievably proud of him, watching his life turn around like this. I never would have imagined I'd live to see the day that David Rolston motivated so much and got his life together, and now he's working so hard to get where he wants to be. He took his real estate class midterm and kicked its ass, so that helped to boost his confidence and self-esteem. Yay for David!
