Isn't my life strange? And maybe blessed?

So...
The other day I posted a blog saying I was sad. I got let go...Got my future plans kicked off. Oh made me so stressed out. I started applying for jobs, not much reply though.
And yesterday, the deputy manager called me, I had the interview with her a few months back, before they hired me. So she called me, and told me she was upset when she heard I was let go. She talked to the manager and told him he made a wrong decision then. We talked, and she asked me, if she would offer me a job, would I accept it. I didn't have too much time to think, I told her I need a job. She offered me an administrator job, a Monday-Friday job, FREE weekends, 8.30AM-4.30PM.
I couldn't believe my ears. A tiny bit better pay, but this schedule makes up for a lot. After she told me she will call me next week, and we'll see what's next if the job will be available then.
And today, she called me today. Offered me the job, starting Monday.
How crazy it is?
Yesterday I traveled to Budapest, on my way home I was thinking about my future...And I've decided I will have work, Wally and I will get married, no matter all the troubles, I and we will be happy...
And things just start working out again...So amazing. Another little sunshine. Another hope. Another blessing.
I feel blessed. And I hope these blessings are keep pouring on me.
Wish you all the same, blessings on you and your loved ones.

I AM SAD

I thought of deleting the previous blog...
Oh, from one moment to the next things change suddenly. Sometimes I can't take changes too well.
This is something that starts the avalanche that changes everything.
So today I went to work, nothing to it. I went to lunch (or was going to) and I ended up, with my boss in the BIG bosses office, when he quickly thanked my work... and let me go..having the great excuse of the recession...Well the place I worked is an expensive store and the people who shop there are not feeling the recession and they keep coming. So that's about it.
Yeah, so the other day, when I posted the other blog I was in heaven, very happy, planning for the future. Now different plans.. back to the beginning, looking for a job.
Wally... HE IS AMAZING!!!! I mean, today he was my first thought after the news at work. I almost had a broken heart, we all planned things out, what can I tell him. But he's my support, my mate, my other half...I needed him so much. When I called him, Oh he was not happy with my unhappiness. And later today we spent 2 hours talking. He told me what I needed to hear, that how much he loves me, and loves me and loves me more.
So, I guess, my life is all about being patient...so we talked about everything, how we plan.. and life turns to a different way, but we will get married. We just don't know when.
So, don't make a comment to that blog because our date is not set anymore... but the plan and the LOVE is still there.
He loves me and I LOVE HIM!!!!!!!

Happy Plans For The Future

So, time is passing by, things are happening, luckily I have people around me who are very helpful. And I have a man who really loves me and I love him very much too.




















As it turns out, they keep me in my job too, and told me to give in my vacation request. Wow, that's good news. With these information, we can finally plan... PLAN TO GET MARRIED.
YEP!
I will go back to Morocco, hopefully on May 15th, or very close to that, and I have a bit more than 2 weeks of vacation, which I'm planning to spend all there with my man. We don't know the exact day of our wedding, because I still have papers to do there. And I hope we can fix all, and get married, before my time runs out. We are super excited. I accepted the idea of a traditional wedding. Nothing craziness will happen. And it will be something I always wished for, having a "different" wedding. When I told Wally the news about my vacation time... oh the picture I saw... Oh, his eyes... and his smile...He was soooo happy for the news and so was I.
I can't wait for the time to be with him again, to feel his arms around me, feeling him close to me.
Exciting times are coming. Things weren't too easy... will not be easy... but we'll be together to overcome the upcoming trials and enjoy the upcoming life together.

Did I tell you it's cold here??

Oh holy cow....
I was so spoiled for 9 years in South California....I did not miss this cold. As I arrived home tonight I checked the thermometer and it was 8F. You can't breath through your mouth because the air is cold...you can't breath through your nose... because it gets runny... (you are lucky if it's runny and not frozen hehehe)...They are promising -4F....through the night...and it's gonna go through the morning too when I leave for work.
I waited for my train a few minutes, and I was standing there, without my gloves for about 5 minutes, and literally I was in pain from the cold...my fingers were hurting, so the gloves slipped on my hands very quickly. I don't dare leaving the house without them, or my earmuffs, or a hat, or my scarf. I am dressed in many layers, I feel like the little kid in "Christmas story", I can't move after I'm dressed.
Work doesn't help either...Where I work, with the others, it's very close to the door...constant cold air coming on us...and the company wants to save money on not turning on the heaters.. Have you heard about insanity like that...in the 10sF. Lovely, huh?
Yeah, I just wanted to share my feelings about the COLD. I really don't like it. I miss California sun, Moroccan summer, oh... I think I prefer to sweat...
I know many of you are used to the cold weather, not all...and I am definitely used to warmer weathers.
Greetings. Happy new year. Warmer weather. Wish for spring coming soon.
