Missing her boy

Alright so I need to start updating my blog other times besides when Jon is gone... But I guess since I spend every spare moment with Jon the only time I really have to update my blog is when he's gone. I don't really know what to say...I have a hard time putting my personal feelings out there online for everyone to see...even though so far Lauren is the only one who even knows about my blog. I think it's only a matter of time before Jon and I start talking about marriage...he's brought it up in a round about way yesterday and today. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens. :) Haha I love that! I love that by "waiting and seeing" i get to enjoy every moment with Jon! He is so wonderful! I love him so much! I would go into all the reasons why I love Jon so much, but I think I'd embarrass Lauren... :P

going crazy...

So basically I'm crazy...crazy in love with this boy named Jonathan Jacob Zuniga! I can't stop thinking about him and even though I saw him earlier today I'm going insane because I can't even talk to him because he's camping with the boys. I'm feeling pretty pathetic right about now seeing as how I went 25 months without seeing him and now I can't even go a couple of hours without even talking to him! What's up with that? I'm in love! That is basically the only explanation I have for this. Although I already knew just how much I loved him...I din't know how it would express itself in my daily life though.

He's Home!

So I haven't updated my blog in a while. Turns out that I got a job soon after my last post and have been incredibly busy with school and work since then. I'm now working for Stewart Maclay at East Valley Disaster Services. It's quite the interesting job. I mean who wouldn't love working with Mexican ladies all day every day? I really need to work on my Spanish so that I can communicate.
Other fun news...Jon is home! :) He got home almost two weeks ago and until Monday I had seen him every day since he got home! His family invited me to go to pick him up from the airport with him. That was a blast! :) I loved seeing him again! The only problem was that I wasn't sure how to act...if I should give him a hug or not (after he was released of course) because I didn't want to scare him. I guess I didn't have much to worry about. I had the week off of work last week (because they didn't have anything for me to do) and got to spend the majority of my week with Jon. :) It was wonderful! He held my hand and kissed me all in the same day! :) Haha I'm dating my best friend once again! How did I ever get so lucky?
Here are some fun pictures from the airport:

What have I done?

So I decided to start a blog seeing as how I love to read everyone else's. And what better time than now to start blogging since I'm not working or going to school. Yeah, I guess my life sounds pretty easy right about now. How I wish that was true! Since I got home just before Christmas my life has been pretty busy. After the holidays I started job hunting. It's been long and hard and I wish I was able to see the end of that road, but sadly I can't yet. I'm exhausted! I've spent a lot of my free time these last couple of weeks calling around and trying to connect with people that could possibly help me find a job and then going around and picking up applications, filling them out, and taking them back. Oh it's been a blast! On top of that I've been trying to figure out things with school. I want to be a nurse and so I'm trying to feel out all of my options and then decide which way to go. Starting on Monday I'll be taking a Nursing Assistant class that will be every Monday and Wednesday night with Saturday being our clinical day. This class is the key to me becoming a CNA and being able to start working in the hospitals, working closely with those who have achieved the goal I'm working towards. I'm hoping to be a little closer to having a job by the time my class starts. And on top of all of this I've been trying to help my mom as much as possible with Luke, especially since Grandma is staying with us for now and she's in the hospital.

Like I said, life has been crazy, but hey I love it. I can't even begin to express how grateful I am for all that I have in life. I have a family that loves me and supports me! And I'm able to be here so that my mom doesn't have to worry about things running smoothly at home while she is attending to her mother. I can't help but see the Lord's hand in my life, in every aspect of my life, and I can't help but be so incredibly grateful! I don't know what I would do without the gospel in my life!
