Remember how I was complaining about how it had gotten cold here and I was tired of it? I would like to go back in time and tell myself to shut up. It has been so freaking cold here for the past week. I'm talking freezing, icy roads, school cancelled for FOUR DAYS cold. Even in the apartment, I'm still cold. This sucks. Majorly. Hopefully it'll be gone by next week, but who knows. In all honesty, it's not that much worse than winter in Indiana...but here's the thing: I'm in TEXAS, not Indiana. In Indiana, I expect shitty weather in the winter...not here! Here it's supposed to be in the 50s and 60s by now. So unfair.
Still haven't heard anything about a job, which is really annoying. I wish that I could just find something. I have to work today from 2-10, and all I can hope is that we're more busy than we were yesterday night. I worked for four hours and didn't make a single sale. I did sign a guy up for a credit card, but that was it. I had never been so bored in my life. It didn't help that it was cold where I was, either. By the end of the night, my hands were all red. So, fingers crossed that I have some customers today.
I've started looking at apartments again. I can't help it. I think that my mom would be willing to give me money to get a place at this point. She must really want her apartment to herself! I've got a couple of prospective places. The most promising doesn't have an opening until April 2. It's affordable, and still in Plano ISD. But that means another 2 months-ish of sharing an apartment with my mom. Though, I can't really afford to move out yet, so I guess it's okay. Especially with the trip to Indiana to get Isabel coming up.
Pete and I have actually talked **tentatively** about getting married in a couple years. It's so weird that I'm even considering it, but the more we talk about it, the more it doesn't scare me. I've even gone so far as to start thinking of colors and possible bridesmaids...yeah, I know. I'm a dork. It's so exciting to think about, and honestly, I can't imagine not having him in my life. I've only known him a little over 6 months, but I just know.
True, we may get snippy with each other or not agree about something, but we talk and figure it out. That's one of the things I love most about him. He is not passive aggressive (which I HATE) he will tell you if some thing's bothering him. And he expects you to do the same. If you don't say what's bothering you, he just assumes everything is fine. It drives my mom nuts, but I've explained to her that is how he is. She thinks he's just being oblivious, or something.
I am really missing Isabel. It's been almost 2 months since she went up to Indiana. I try not to think about it, but it's hard. Lots of things will remind me of her...going to the grocery store and seeing things she likes, or at work when I see a little girl the same age as her. I don't know what we're going to do, but I can't have her gone this long again. Not while she's this young and can't talk on the phone very well. It's just too long. We're going to have to figure something else out.
Alright, I might write more when I get back from work, unless I go hang out with Pete...let's just pray for warmer weather by my next post!
