date night....so overdue

I was really looking forward to mine and Zac's first NYE as a married couple and couldn't wait to get that first kiss in 2009!! Well, that is not how it happened! We a very uneventful NYE this year! I got sick the night before with that stomach bug that still seems to be making its rounds with everyone. So I was curled up on the couch and Zac got home from work and went straight to work on our plumbing that also decided to give us problems the same night I got sick! Something was backed up.....good thing I married a certified plumber!!!!!! hahahaha!!!!!!! So when he finally decided to give it a rest and try again the next day he was exhausted and I was still just watching the Rockin New Years Eve with Ryan Seacrest and Dick Clark! The next thing I know Zac is passed out on the couch from being so tired! The ball dropped at 11 our time and Zac is sleepin, so I decided we should just call it a night and try again next year!! I mean it was nice to be home with my hubby on NYE but just not the way I had imagined!

So since our first NYE was a bust we decided it was time to use our gift card we got for our wedding to Reata!!! That is actually where we had spent NYE last year was at Reata! They have such great food and atmosphere! It is romantic and rustic all in one! It was a date that was so overdue! Since we got married at the end of August it just seems like we have been constantly on the go with holidays or with Zac working. We haven't had much time to just ourselves so that is what we wanted!! We had a great time and when we were done eating we came home and spent the rest of the night playing our wii! We have become addicted I guess you could say, but it is a great way to spend time together and interact too!! So it was a great make-up from our NYE night!!! I am glad I made the reservations when I did so we could both enjoy the great food since I had been sick and then a couple nights after our date Zac got sick with the same thing, so now we have both had it and should now be in the clear! So now we are finally both healthy and Zac fixed the plumbing!!! I love my husband so much and I am so lucky to have a sweet, compassionate and supportive husband!  

FINALLY

I finally did it, I landed myself a job!! I have been getting really frustrated lately with not having a job and feeling suffocated in our house. Don't get me wrong, I love to be home and do all the stuff around the house, but every day 24/7, it starts to wear on a person. We don't have any little ones yet so I don't have them to keep me busy so when I am done with the house work I find myself in front of the TV the rest of the day. Which is really not good for a person!! I have been feeling really disconnected with people and I really feel it is because I have become an unhappy person being at home.  I know some people would love to trade place with me and I understand that but I can't take it anymore! I have recently started going back to the gym with my sweet friend Heather and that has helped with stress and my social life! But again that is only an hour out of my looong day! I guess I have been keeping this all in hoping that one day it would just go away, so it feels really good to finally get this off my chest!!

So now onto a better point of my blog!!! I landed a JOB!!!! It doesn't have anything to do with my degree but I am totally ok with that! I will be working at the Spine& Sport Therapy in Ft. Worth! I will be helping them get their office back in order and helping the office manager not be so overwhelmed since she just had a baby! I start Monday and will work MFW, so I still get 2 days off during the week and weekends! What more could I ask for!! The best thing of all is that I get to wear scrubs to work!!!!! I am so pumped and I know I will be a lot happier now that I will have a job and feel like I am contributing more for Zac and I! I will keep y'all posted about my first day of work!!! I can't wait to start!!!!! Have a great weekend everyone!!!
