Dave and I got together and engaged pretty fast. I guess it was only natural for me to move forward, while also taking a few steps back. But now I know I need to just keep going forward. I'm at a good place in my life and things will only get better when I start fresh in Massachusetts. That is, if I keep my head where it needs to be.

I got my wedding dress while in California last week. It is plain and comfy and wasn't too expensive. I am also excited that my bridesmaids and I are going to be wearing flat shoes! I don't want uncomfortable feet at my wedding! I can't wait for February to come. I made my Save the Dates at Walmart yesterday and they will be ready in a few weeks. It was only 10 bucks to make about 40 of them! Also, we found out more of Dave's family wants to come! I am excited for the wedding and everyone getting together and meeting each other. I am also excited to get my life going finally! Dave's mom invited me to live with her while Dave is in guard training, so I am going to do that! Hopefully Jasper can come with me! That way, Dave won't have to spend money on rent while he is in training and he can easily save up 10 grand! That is a good start to a savings for a down payment on a house.

I've been talking to J and he has a new girlfriend. I felt the initial sting, but I do realize it is for the best. I checked out her facebook (of course) and she seems to be a decent gal. I am glad he is over the navy-whores. I am honestly happy he found a good one and I hope things work out for them. They had their first date and I told him to tell me how it went. Around midnight his time he texted me and was like "It went amazing!" I told him to give me details and he told me she came over with her guitar and he taught her some things and when she had to go he walked her out and gave her a kiss goodnight. I told him I was happy and he said he "digs" her and I said "Maybe this could be it!" and he said "Maybe". I really am glad also because it gives me a break from the emotional roller coaster he has put me on for the past three years. I know that finally he has a chance to be happy with a girl again and I have a chance to be happy with my future husband. Sure there will always be "what ifs" but at least I can focus now on what I need to. I love Dave and he deserves my full attention.
