Things are good!

So still getting situated in the apartment, but overall things are really starting to come together. Very pleased.

Niceguy is amazing, and I look forward to picking him up from work every night just to spend a few hours with him. I hate leaving for work in the morning. lol

His behavior towards me has changed so much in the last two months, that I still find myself getting excited every time he hugs me at random, or tells me that he loves me. It's so nice! I love the butterflies I get when he smiles at me, or the playfulness between us when we cook dinner together. *sigh* Such wonderful feelings.

We've been talking about the future a lot lately. It just comes up at random in conversation. Getting into a bigger place, buying a house, traveling the world, visiting friends in Hawaii or even moving there, paying off debts so we can live better. I'll admit the prospects are very exciting, but for the moment we need to focus on the here and now, and get our current financial drama under control. I do want to say though, that the thought of doing any of that with Niceguy, makes me all giddy. *giggle*

I haven't been this happy in a long time, and I don't want to let it go. No drama, great friends, great job, feeling loved. It's all so awesome!

Not to say that drama hasn't tried to squeeze it's way back in. Got an apology email recently from Midas. Yes, I read it. Yes, many scenarios played out in my head. I'm sure he's probably reading this, so to put it clearly and not beat around the bush: No.

And with that, I won't go into any further detail.

Work is good. Very busy. I'm glad I'm not bored. Having fun, and loving everything I'm learning.

Bestie moved back in with her boyfriend, and things seem to be going very well. I'm proud of her for following her heart and doing what she feels is best. We'll see how things go. For the moment though, all is well, and for that I am thankful.

Niceguy's ex-roomie got a job, and on his first day after work, broke his foot. Poor guy. So he had to take a week off. We're all impressed with how quickly he landed the job. He has a lot of experience in the field though, so it made sense that they contacted him so quickly. He's looking into getting into his own place, and once that happens Niceguy and I will start planning our trip out there to visit. We're thinking some time next spring. Will be awesome!

My bank screwed me recently, and cost me $124 in fees, which also included several phone calls a day from my credit card company. Oh yay! That's been fun. Have only been late once in 9 years, and I'm being harassed because I am now 12 days late. Until things get sorted out with my bank though, I'm going to continue to be late. Deal with it.

I know my recent financial woes have completely destroyed my good credit, so buying a car next year is probably out unless I can save up enough money. Niceguy has been amazing. Money has been extremely tight, but he's carrying as much as he can so I can get back on my feet. I was surprised, to say the least, when he just brushed off the subject. "We'll just have to cut back on everything for a little while. No worries. It's just money. What do you want for dinner?" The man cracks me up!

Anyways, if we can manage, I'm hoping to be out of the hole in two paychecks. Probably be three or four, but the hope is there, and we're trying. If I could just avoid spending $200 a paycheck, I'll be out of the hole in two months. $300/paycheck, only 6 weeks. $400/paycheck, 3 weeks. So we'll see how things go. Breaking out the budget again to help.... Oh joy....

So I really have nothing major to report. Overall, life is great! Niceguy is wonderful, move is done, drama is gone, work is great, friends are all in good places, etc.... *smile*

I could get used to this drama-free life! =)

I hope everyone else is well!

Love to all!
