What happened?..

Don't you wish people would have told you what the "real world" was like before you graduated college. It seems like no one tells you what life is really like and then one day you are just in it! Don't get me wrong, it's not bad, just hard, and sometimes harder than I expected. Maybe it's just me. Maybe I lived in a fairytale and just had to wake up someday. Part of me still believes that you can live in a fairytale, your own fairytale. You just have to train yourself to think a certain way. You can see reality, but choose to only focus on the good and not let the bad get to you. This is something I need to work on.

I have no idea why I'm writing this! Lol. I'm SOOOOOOOO bored. Eric is off playing golf and I am unemployed and have no friends. I also have no energy or desire to do anything. Weird, I know. I just want to sit. Maybe it's because I haven't been sleeping well lately. I hope it's that. Every night this week I've had a nightmare (with the exception of last night.) Because I've been having nightmares I haven't wanted to sleep. Even if I'm tired I don't want to go to sleep because I don't want to have another bad dream :( I'm such a little kid! lol.

Man I hope I get a job soon. My problem is that I have so many things I want to do, but I don't do them. Why is that? Why can't I just say "Lisa, get up and do..." It's like whatever it is can't keep my attention, even if I originally wanted to do it, or I feel like there's no use because I'm not as good at the thing as I used to be so it makes me sad. How do I get out of this funk?

Easter, Princesses, and the Open Road!

Here we are again, weeks later... I'm seriously no good at this blogging business! lol! So much has happened! Easter has come and gone, we saw princesses, and packed and moved to AZ! (among many other things that I can't remember right now because it has been so long!

Oh! First things first. DO NOT SEE 2112 (the movie). That is unless you want a good laugh or nap! It's super cheesy and not believable. Another movie that is a good laugh, but I wouldn't pay to see is Torque. Its an older movie with Ice Cube in it.. It's basically a motorcycle spin off of the fast and the furious. SUPER unrealistic, but funny because it's so out there! lol. Now onto business, or pleasure (whichever way you look at it!)

For Easter I did a little easter egg hunt for Eric. I got a little basket from target and hid about 8-9 eggs around the apartment! It was fun! He kept asking for hints and I kept telling him no and then found myself telling him hints later! Sneaky boy!

So before we got married I attempted tanning (I know, BAD idea! I was burnt and in the most tender of places too! :( The good side of the story is that I tried it about a month before the wedding. I wasn't even messing with my wedding day. I made sure I had plenty of time to fix what ever went wrong before the big day! Which brings me to the next segment of this post! Eric found my tanning goggles in my car on the way to church and was wearing them as sunglasses! lol!

Ok, you CAN'T tell Eric I put this picture on here! Right after I took it he said "this better not go on any blogs or Facebook!" So shhh!! This is Eric and his cousin Kalie. She is the happiest little girl I've ever seen! Not to mention the most fashionable (as you can see!) I think Eric kind of looks like Elton John! lol

Move day! In case you don't know how to load a moving van (which Eric and I didn't, as we have never had to move so far and so much stuff before!) U-haul provides this helpful little diagram on the side of their boxes. We did not get boxes from them, but I snapped this while we were waiting for the truck, just in case :)

This is Zizi (purple lion). He is my Betta fish. My friend Kara got him for me for my birthday almost 3 years ago! Crazy, I know! He had been sick for the previous month and a half before the move, and I was worried that he might not make it. This was his travel container. It actually worked very well, and HE MADE IT! He even almost ate yesterday! Which is HUGE because he hasn't eaten in about a month or more. I seriously do not know how he is still alive, but I'm so glad he is!

You can't move without getting a flat! The trailer that Eric's truck was on got a flat tire at Quartzsite. An hour or so later we were back on the road! "Thanks to you toe truck driver tire fixer guy."

You can't really tell from this picture, but it's the first tire...

Now, for the moment you've all been waiting for! Our NEW apartment (and by new I mean REALLY new!! not just new to us!) The apartment is brand new and no one has ever lived in it before! Here is our dining area.

Living room.

Kitchen

Different angle to the living room where you can see part of the spare room.

Throne room :)

And, last but not least.... The view

I just thought this pic looked cool. I tweaked it to make it look more like a painting.

And there you have it! We are officially residents of Arizona. Luckily, it hasn't been too hot yet! But it's supposed to get hot next week :/ Just today (or was it yesterday?) I told Eric that I was ready for it to be cool, and to have an ocean breeze :( Oh how I miss my cool ocean air! It's all good tho. It's a new adventure. Plus, I get to go to CA in September for my friend's wedding!!! I'll try to post again before then ;)
