Lofting making and Body Aching

Today started off great! I was awake this morning around 8:30, which if anyone knows me knows that is a time that I don’t do since I haven’t been in school or working as of late. But this city I am telling you, it’s giving me life! And the gods know that I am always full of energy.
Around noon though, my delivery of lumber came. And I have been waiting for a few days to get this going, so I was able to start construction on our Loft bed. The good thing is I have a little experience in the area.
So with the construction of the loft bed and all that goodness that comes with working along side you husband. MMM let me tell you what. Could have been a lot worse but it wasn’t easy some of the time as well. But its ok this isn’t suppose to be easy right? Marriage is always a struggle no matter the years behind it.
The day is moving right along and things are starting to come together nicely. First the frame, then the studs, you know you need support as this is a state that does have earthquakes. Top to the legs.  Set  up right and set in place and now for the bracers.
After everything is swept up and bed is made. You look at the massive work of art you just created and step back and ahhh at it. You built it with your own hands (and husbands). We do make a pretty good team, him and I. I’m glad that I decided to keep him around for a while. He’s a really good fit I tell you.
So with the loft done and the latter on the side. Only a few more items are needed on the loft to make it complete. Tonight when I rest my aching, throbbing body atop it. I know I’ll fall asleep quiet easily and happy knowing that todays work was all worth the pain.

San Francisco

Thank you for returning or just stopping by. I know that it has been a long time since we last seen one another. But I’m glad to see you again!!

            Since we last spoke, which I didn’t know that it has been since 2013 since I last posted so I do apologize for that. But a lot has changed for my family and me. So 2015 lets get sicking (RPDR)!

            Recap. 2014 I got married to the wonderful man that I have been with since the start of my life outside the military. Things have been up and down, just like any relationship.  But almost a year later I’m still love the guy with my whole heart, no matter the obstacles we have overcome already and those that we will have to in the future I’m sure.

            At the end of 2014, we finally were able to make that move that we have been talking about since 2011.  San Francisco is the city that has cried out to husband and myself for decades. We have always known that we were “bigger” city people.  We have been here in the city now for going on four days. And let me just say... I could not be any happier. Things will get crazy, I’m sure. But after fighting so long to get here and now that we are here. We will do anything needed to stay here. We fell in love with the city from the start. May it been the first traffic jam, or California St. who knows, but we are glad we made it and we are staying.

            School for me is another reason we came out this way. http://www.blushschoolofmakeup.com/! School starts the 5th of January. After finishing hair back east and working in a few different salons I realized that makeup would be a great-added bonus to the carrier field in which I have already spent time and money. Make up has been something I have always been into, may it be beauty or special effects, over to photo shoots, or even bridal. It’s a great-added education benefit. Always remember to have continued education. Never stop or settle for just one thing. If it’s a BA then go and get a MA, or a PhD etc… So I’m always on the look out for some more education to fill up this big head of mine.

            With school starting right around the corner, being a gamer, married man, and new city. There is so much and so little time to get in and do all things that one should be doing when moved to a new city right? But the great things I suppose is that one could really just take time and explore all the things that this Amazing City has to offer and those cities around us.

            Well I just wanted to get something jotted down for a while. The blog is hopefully going to be staying active now. I have so much I want to share, while in school and all things life to have offered! So if you want come on back and read about it here. With me! Jay signing off!
