2017 gone. 2018 is here!
7 years ago
Boy, what a year huh?
2017 was definitely a crazy ride! A lot of things happened this year for sure.
- I moved to Tallahassee to live with my fiancee alexdachshund
Which was a big deal. Having had lived with my parents for, at the time, 30 years. It was a huge step to take.
It's been almost a year now since I've here in Tallahassee, and so far I'm doing well.
- We got a dog!
He's a nut case haha. But he's a puppy still. Came from a rescue in Alabama.
We decided to get another dog as we had to make the hard decision of letting another go due to health problems, etc.
- I proposed! And she said YES!
While we made a huge deal about it already on the last night of MFF, figured why not say again!
I intended on going to this past MFF because it felt like a symbolic place of Alex, and I's relationship. Having gone in 2016 with her, and we had just started dating again, I felt the con held importance to her, and I.
I felt real lucky to snag a room for MFF2017 at the main hotel, and was set on going. TBH, I was hoping to go from the start as it was part of the plan.
Sunday night, she, and I went suiting by the lit trees outside, took some photos. That's when I got down, and asked her to be my wife <3 And she said YES! Best way to end the night, and the weekend at the con!
From here on, MFF holds importance for us both. For many reasons!
- Various other things happened during the year as well, both very positive, to negative. We'll leave the bad out though :P It's personal.
So what's 2018 lookin like?
- New job/career?
That's right! I'm lookin to get myself out of retail. Working at my job has been tough. It's startin to stress me out a good bit now. To the point I've nearly walked out even.
I imagine it's due to have transferred to a different store. So I got use to how things worked/ran at my previous store back in Melbourne, FL. But I don't know, it feels no different, to even worse really. And I really don't want any part of it. Not worth the pay I get now. Which just barely gets me by at all.
Well, my older brother who has ties with Apple (Outside source, as an IT but seen a credible tech to go to by Apple themselves) wants to help me achieve a career in what he does with Apple. So that's a thing soon. It was something I tried doing before, but back burned it due to personal issues going on. This is a second chance, and a chance I know will work out well, and I feel determined to give it my all! And it'll be something I can enjoy!
- Wedding planning!
Oh yes! Alex, and I, and her mom, are planning this out! We're in no rush right now but we hope to get things together for us to get married! When we get a date set, we'll update!
Lookin to do a scenic wedding, like in the mountains! Are we gonna wear our fursuits? We are thinking of doing so, but probably AFTER the real events are done! :P Gotta be real, and serious in this case though.
- Moving again?
Yes! But where? To Jacksonville! Sometime ago, I mentioned that my brother, Starrik, wanted me to move in with him, seki, and 2 others. Well, I'd like to think due to my work schedule, and life, things came to a halt, and the idea was kinda scraped for me. But we'd be talkin again about making it a thing. We have a house that just needs a good bit of work, but we can do it, and make it really nice, etc! So hopefully in the mid 2018, Alex, and myself will be over there!
- Anything else?
Well yeah, but all things come in due time!
Happy New Year! May 2018 be everyone's turn around for the good year! A positive one even!
