so i've been MIA for a while and i'll tell you why- really it's not a good excuse, i just didn't have time for blogging (gasp!). now before all of you get angry at me for not having enough time for blogging, something i truly love and would do at least once or twice a week no matter what crazy thing was happening in my life (before now that is), i just have to say there has been a lot of change around the Dubinsky household. i will try to sum things up short and sweet- and in list form because i just can't resist a good list :0)
- darin and i traveled to the wondrous and beautiful land of San Francisco- i tell you guys there is NOTHING more beautiful, at least nothing we have seen yet- San Francisco was by far one of the most laid back, gorgeous, and EXPENSIVE cities we have ever been too in our married existence. it truly was one of the best times we have ever had. we were able to relax and truly remember what was important- not bills, money (or lack there of), not school, work, or even drama with friends or family- nope it was each other, our marriage and remembering why we had even come to san francisco in the first place- OUR 1 YEAR WEDDING ANNIVERSARY! yep, we have been married for a year already! can you guys believe it? we sure couldn't! i am glad that we took this time with each other, to truly appreciate one another and how much we love each other, and always, always will. so without further ado, here are some lovely snapshots of our trip :0)
this is hubby and i in front of the golden gate bridge- the picture does not do it justice, this bridge was absolutely GORGEOUS! it was one of our favorite parts of the trip!
this is me enjoying one of my many glasses of Sangria- D thought i should have all the garnish, i believe we were a little intoxicated at the time- but hey, who cares? we're on vacation!
Pier 39 was kind of a tourist trap- but the seals were awesome!!!! they were so cute, and so adorable i just couldn't stop staring at them! :0)
these are our new friends that we met in the Castro District of San Francisco. If you didn't know the Castro District prides itself on being one of the most open and accepting districts in San Francisco of Gay and Lesbian couples. Darin and i absolutely loved hanging out in the castro, the people were friendly, courteous, and more than willing to help a couple of tourists! we ended up meeting these guys at bar called Twin Peaks- it was actually the day of our anniversary so they bought us a drink and we watched Michael Phelps kick some olympic ass!
Another awesome thing about the castro? Hot Cookie! This place had the most amazing cookies....EVER! Besides cookies they also sold underwear that said "HOT COOKIE" on them- if you bought one you could model them and get your picture on the wall- no matter how much i tried to get hubby to model the "HOT" undies he just wouldn't do it- so alas no underwear pic on the walls of San Fran for us!
i have more pictures that i will definately share later- i would hate to use them all up on one post! then again we did take about 600 pics..... yea we are definately freaks with the camera!
- another big milestone in our lives is that i am back in school.....AND SO IS DARIN! i am soooooo proud of my hubby! he started school to become an Anesthesiology Technician! he is really enjoying it, i can tell he will really like being in school again! he is sooooooo much happier with a new job, and a new outlook on life! we get to spend more time together, have dinner together like a regular couple, and actually be home on the same days!
- i got offered a position by the current company i am working for. i have been offered this position a couple of times and i finally decided to bite. why you ask? well because when i really thought about it, i didn't have a plan after i graduate this semester. i love where i work- i love the people, the hours, and the workload isn't entirely too bad. this isn't to say i don't want to move on- but i don't want to move on right now. i want to concentrate on making some money, figure out if i want to go to grad school, and then make my decision. i am 23 years old and not really in any rush. this is a good chance for me to move up in my company, gain a little more job experience, and also make some more money- which is a plus to taking this position! :0)another plus is that i will be getting HEALTH INSURANCE!!!!! which is a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge factor! i can't wait to have health insurance and rest a little easier at night!
-hubby and i are getting sooooooooooooo much closer to paying off our debt! i can not wait to be debt free- then we can finally start saving for the future and putting our money towards important things- like a mortgage maybe? :0)
- and lastly hubby and i have been talking about TTC- not right this second but in the future. we have a few more things we needed to map out mapped out and we finally feel good about our plans. i just recently purchased the book "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" which i have heard awesome things about- i can't wait to start reading!
So things are a little hectic, but at the same time soooooooooo amazing! I feel like we are finally headed in the right direction!
i have been reading my blog list religiously still so i am well caught up on what you are all up to! now you can hopefully catch up with me- i promise the next absence won't be so long!
hope everyone had a great labor day!!!! look for more posts soon!
