Annoyances

I'm a horrible blogger. I really am.... I need to get better! I do enjoy it, i just feel that I have a very dull, non-exciting life! It has been 3 months to the day of my last blog update. Oops!

NEWS: Today, September 5, 2012 is my lovely husband's birthday! He is 28 years old... Yup, I married an older guy ;-) It's funny hearing stories from him and his friends about their high school years, and I'm like "I wish I would have known you guys back then. It sounds like you had a lot of fun!" Then Matt tells me "Abbi, you weren't even high school then. You were still in middle school." Ahh, true. I was. And we all know high school age kids do NOT want to be seen with a middle school kids. ;-)

So HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATT!

I think I'm going to try and change the title of this... I can do that, right? I don't really blog about marriage much, it is just a bunch of whatever is on my mind whenever I remember to update! I'm going to look into that...

Work has been good. Still working over 40 hours a week, but not by much. I made it through the Fall Semester rush! Whew that was an experience! I'm actually writing this at work, in between doing my job :-p

I am wanting to move into a house - for multiple reasons. Not sure if we're going to rent or look at bank owned/foreclosed houses to purchase or what, but I want out of our apartment. I really like our land lady - She is so sweet and flexible, but our neighbors are crazy and the tiny space is just getting to me. Our one downstairs neighbor is just out there... She is an ex-stripper, so thinks nothing of talking to my husband in just an untied bathrobe, fresh out of the shower (uhm can we say TOTALLY uncalled for??). Plus she slams doors when she's mad, BLASTS music at all times of day and night and if she thinks you are doing laundry too late at night, she'll post a note on the washer/dryer for you. The other neighbor, in the next building over, has been seriously flirting with Matt. I didn't say anything at first because i didn't want to be "that wife" who thinks everyone is flirting with her husband, and Matt just said/thought she was a friendly person. But when she kept touching his arm whenever we talked with her, and when she kept texting him, asking for help with ANYTHING or about her upstairs neighbors and how she wished he would do something to make them leave or whatever, and when she invited only him on a walk with the dogs and invited only him out for drinks - calling him sweetie, enough is enough. We got it to where she isn't texting him anymore, but I'm just waiting it out to see if she'll really leave him alone.

I'm just tired of apartment life. I would love to it just be Matt and I in the building, having a back yard for Chewy (or any other dogs we might get) to play in. To have much more counter space in the kitchen would also be lovely.

Moving on - I'm starting to get into the Christmas spirit already! I think this is the earliest I've gotten excited/happy for Christmas in... ever! haha I don't know why, but I'm so ready for Christmas.

Still wanting to lose weight. Haven't really lost any :( but I'm going to buckle down and get to it....

Other than that, nothing to report! Hopefully I can remember to post more often! ;-)
