June

June has been a really nice month. I've gotten to spend almost every night with Josh, and even had time to see family and friends together.

It's all coming to a screeching halt very soon though. Next Monday Josh flys out to Alabama for 5 weeks.   I've been feeling ok about the whole thing until today... We were out shopping for all the stuff he needs to take down there and it's such a stressful feeling knowing he won't be here with me for that long. I am very new to this whole "military" life style and I know many wives have to go much longer with their husbands being gone, but I think it just all hit me at once. [not to mention he will be starting school again very soon... ahh!]

I have a lot going on myself, which is good. But just thinking about going to bed every night without him is hard to take in.  I know it will go fast, and I know he will be fine, it's just scary and new and change is never easy.

In the grand scheme of things, this is such an insignificant event in our lives and I try to remind myself of that.  I am very lucky to have friends and family to lean on during this time, thank you all for your support.


Goodbye for now,

One Year!

Tomorrow marks our one year anniversary! We have been through so much in just a year, and with all the changes and challenges we've been through in the last 365 days, I think we have handled them like champs.  I really do love you more and more each day.

Here are some pictures of the things I have been doing in class.  I also did my third hair cut with long layers, and loved it! Can't wait to try it out on a real person! :)

Crazy Little World

Hello there!

It's been awhile since I have blogged but holy cow, my world just got SO busy!

I am in school 5 days a week from 9 till 4:30pm, and then have a few hours of practice time/homework every night.  I haven't been in any school setting since 2010, it's definitely taken me some time to get into the swing of things. I am still in love with Douglas J and can't wait to go back every day.

So far, I've learned a lot of different styling techniques [straight hair, rollers, curling irons, perms, etc.], We have cut our mani's head [Erika] twice, did foils for dying hair and a few fancy up-dos.  It's all fun, its all pretty challenging, and the best decision I've ever made! Plus, I've met some pretty sweet people which makes it so much better. :)

Josh is done with school and onto his internship for the summer. It has been so great to have him home every night, He even went grocery shopping for me! June is a very important month to me because its the last summer break he will have in his med school career. Its also our 1 year anniversary on the 18th! I am trying to savor every day because he will be leaving in 3 weeks for Alabama, and I don't think It has really hit me that he will be gone for a month. boo :(


I told Josh the other night that I feel like our little world is coming together, even though its a crazy little world we live in, its ours and we do it well.  It's nice to see where you've come from and feel good about where you're going.



Goodbye for now,

Felicia
