Update of Sorts...

So for those who don't know, Matt has arrived in the US and we made our way from Georgia to Arizona...a long long long drive.  Right now we are staying with my brother and his family while we apply for jobs...well I apply for jobs and wait for Matt's green card and social security number.  I've had a few interviews so far but now is the long wait for the call backs...it's worst because it's major holiday season.

My blog post may be a bit slim for now because we just spend the day applying for jobs and finding cheap ways to eat.  But once we get settled I'll be sure to post more blogs and pictures of my new home in Phoenix, AZ.

So here is a completely crazy story, for those who have followed my blog you will get a good laugh.  As Matt was preparing to come to the US he found out his sister in law, who does not like me, is preggers.  So, Matt's brother and sister in law came up with this plan.  She will come to the US to stay with Matt in 5 months (I'm not even mentioned) then Matt's mother will come over and take care of the baby and then it will just be fun...(btw they are entirely misinformed on how US immigration works, having a baby here means nothing).  I generally wouldn't post things like this but for people who've followed the blog, they would know who crazy, outrageous and hilarious this was to me when Matt told me...and  you can imagine what I said.

But anyway, I'm done for now.  Well keep you updated it things pick up.  Also, I'm making my blog private (***actually I won't make it private...I have nothing to hide and I'm not ashamed of saying how I feel...I've spent too many years keeping how I feel inside***)and even considering deleting facebook or just deleting a few people.  I'm trying my best to make my life a bit more positive so I'm trying to get rid of the negative people.  Even if it means disassociating myself from certain family members, especially ones who feel the need to put you down in your time of need.It may be because Phoenix is a new beginning for me and I want it to be a positive one.

I agree with Oneika. Negative folks add nothing! Best to cut them off or ignore them. Or you could take the less mature route and mock them, like I do. :-D
