My Everything

With everything I've been going through lately, there have been so many people around me who have been supportive, but with as much as my family means to me, Jeremy's love and support has meant the world to me. It's a great feeling when the man you love supports you in anything you do.

When I told him that I was going to start training on Monday he was in the car driving to his parents and he yelled at the top of his lungs, "WOO HOO!!! Alright babe! I KNEW you could do it!" His reaction made me so happy that I got a lil' teary eyed. Even though it doesn't look like I'll be moving up to Austin for a while longer, this job could be my path to a great future and will eventually lead me to Austin, probably withing the next year. He told me that he'd be okay with being apart for however long it took because this job is such a great opportunity and the pay is great.

My mom bought the new Michael Buble' CD/DVD yesterday and hearing the song "Everything" again reminded me so much of the way I feel about Jeremy. There's one line in this song that, I feel, pertains to my job search and also all of the things that he and I go through. "Whatever comes our way, we'll see it through, and you know that's what our love can do." I love him so much, and he really is my Everything.

Everything - by: Michael Buble'


"You're a falling star
You're the getaway car
You're the line in the sand
When I go too far

You're the swimming pool
On and August day
And you're the perfect thing to say

And you play it coy
But it's kinda cute
Oh when you smile at me
You know exactly what you do


Baby don't pretend
That you don't know it's true
'Cause you can see it
When I look at you

And in this CRAZY LIFE
And through these CRAZY TIMES
It's you, it's you
You make me sing
You're every line
You're every word
You're EVERYTHING

You're a carousel
You're a wishing well
And you light me up
When you ring my bell

You're a mystery
You're from outer space
You're every minute of my every day

And I can't believe
That I'm your girl (man)
And I get to kiss you baby
Just because I can

Whatever comes our way
We'll see it through
And you know
That's what our love can do



And in this CRAZY LIFE
And through these CRAZY TIMES
It's you, it's you
You make me sing
You're every line
You're every word
You're EVERYTHING

And so la la la la, la la la
So la la la la, la la la

And in this CRAZY LIFE
And through these CRAZY TIMES
It's you, it's you
You make me sing
You're every line
You're every word
You're EVERYTHING

You're every song
And I sing along
'Cause you're my EVERYTHING
Yeah, yeah

So la la la la, la la la
So la la la la , la la-la-la, la la la "


LOVE YOU BABE!
AND I LOVE YOU MOM, DAD AND LUIS!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT

It's Been A While

I'm sitting here in the living room, listening to the "Singers & Swing" channel on Music Choice (Time Warner Cable) - I love listening to old school songs. Connie Evingson is singing "I love being here with you" (Peggy Lee). I guess it's just the band geek in me, but I love me some big band music, ya know, songs with real instruments in them, not all digitized like songs are lately.


I watched the Michael Jackson Memorial today, missed parts of it, but I think I saw most of the good stuff. Brooke Shields made me cry when she talked about "Smile" and then when Jermaine sang it... then Paris Jackson made me cry. So sad.


I had a telephone interview yesterday, and an in-person interview this morning at Fred Loya Insurance company. They called me earlier today, after my interview, and asked me to return tomorrow for the second part of the interview process and take a test. I wish I knew what kind of test, but I'm not really worried. I am really, really hoping to get this job. It's, actually, exactly what I've been looking for since I started searching down here in the Valley - after realizing it's slow going searching in Austin. Fred Loya is a company that is both down here AND up in Austin. Also, it is mostly a sit down at a desk job and talk on the phone/use a computer. That is a VERY welcome change to what I've done for the past 8 years. The thought of not having to stand on my feet for 6 hours or more makes me giddy. They said that the job is full time, 12-9pm plus a few hrs on Saturdays, pays $24,500/yr, and after being there for a year I will be able to take a test and become a licensed insurance adjuster. I'm trying not to get my hopes up, but I'm pretty excited. I asked Jeremy today how he'd feel about me, maybe, having to stay down here for another year and he said that with a job like that and pay like that, he could wait LOL I'm not positive I'd have to wait a year to transfer, but I think most jobs have something like that when it comes to transferring. I'm hoping to be able to look at job openings from within the company and maybe an opening in Austin will open up before and I could see if it'd be possible. Who knows... I hope I hope I hope! I never imagined myself doing insurance.... EVER lol... but we'll see how it goes!


Another year away from Jeremy seems really unbearable, but it would be a good idea to save up as much money as possible, AND especially pay off my debts. I'm hoping to have control and not spend so much money on lunches n stuff. The office I'd be working in is only like 7 minutes away from home, so maybe I could run home for lunch! I miss my Jeremy, but it'll be nice to go up to be with him with a guaranteed job and money in savings. I love him so much and he's being so super supportive :) LOVE YOU HONEY!

Hugs to all!
