this past month has been so hectic! i moved out of my mother's house, halfway across the state into an rv on my grandparents' property. i've spent most of my time cleaning up, moving in, and arranging myself into my new living space. (:
i never thought i'd enjoy living alone, but in a way, it's kind of... i don't really know how to describe it. i do kind of enjoy it, though. it's just me and my chihuahua, and that's how i like it. i can lounge around in my underwear if i wanted to do so. :P
this isn't my first time out of my mom's house, though. i've been on my own off and on since i was 17. but always living with friends or a boyfriend, not on my own. like i said, it's a new experience, but i'm enjoying it so far.
eating has been shit, though. i'm 29 days clean from methamphetamine, and yes, i did expect some weight gain from that, but i weighed the pros and cons, and feel that being clean was more important than the weight gain at this point in my life. who knows? i may go back to it someday, but for now i'm happier without the chemicals. but yes, i have gained some weight (i don't currently own a scale, so i'm not certain how much exactly), but i'm planning a new exercise regimen and a new diet, so hopefully weight will go down soon.
i'm starting a class at the end of august to become a certified nurse's aid. i'm excited. after i finish that class, i'm planning on working as a cna to put myself through nursing school. the class is about 6 weeks long, and then nursing classes start next august. so i'll have about 10 months working and building up some money to put myself through school. i'm most excited about finally getting a good job and maybe moving out of this rv and into my own apartment. i just can't wait to finish nursing school and go back to east texas where my mom lives. she's my best friend, and i miss her so much i can barely stand it sometimes. but i'm surviving out here, and she told me today that she couldn't be more proud. (:
