The exciting life of Callie Marie.

So I haven't made this official on any other social media site, but I had to write about it on here. And since I've noticed only a certain handful of you read my blog, I could get away with it.

Life has been oober busy, let me tell you:

Corey and I signed our lease on our new condo. I move in next wednesday and he moves in, in September. We are both super excited! It's also pretty stressful moving and cleaning two apartments. I definitely wish I had a robot to do all this work.

It's also hard because I hardly get to see Corey. Sure, we work together, but in two different departments. Our schedules are all mixed up, people are leaving, people are getting new jobs...

Oh and speaking of new jobs....this girl right here received the job she has been working her butt off to get. Thanks for all the prayers and Facebook support and encouragement!! I'm pretty pumped about it, and also a little scared. But the guy who taught me most of it, reassures me I'll be okay. He's definitely just being nice. :)

So, starting this weekend, I will be the director for the weekend mornings.....it seriously doesn't feel real. I have been training for about 6 months. (And dreaming about directing even longer) Training my body to get up at 4am, and let me tell ya, I'm not a morning person, but it hasn't been that bad. Training how to multi-task (punching, giving cues, looking at 5 different monitors, looking ahead to what's next).

But props to the guy who put up with me for 6 months. He was very patient, and helpful, and I'm pretty sure I got on his nerves a lot. But I definitely couldn't have gotten to where I am now, without him. I'm kinda sad that we can't tag team the morning show anymore. I'm pretty sure he's stoked to get away from me though!

So there's that, please continue the encouragement and prayers as I make this switch! But Thank God for his many blessings.

Switching the subject, wedding plans are slowly coming together. We're definitely on the last leg. I'm not that excited anymore, I've heard that happens. Wait let me rephrase that, I'm not excited about the wedding planning....but becoming Mrs. Presley, yes I am definitely excited about that part. At this point, I think Cor and I are more excited about the honeymoon and before your mind wonders somewhere else, we're excited about going to Jamaica, and I'm excited about swimming with the dolphins! :)

Love always,

I still love you and I'm praying

Life has become super busy right now and I feel like a lot is changing. Yes, I should have gotten married a lot sooner, but unfortunately this is our time. My fiancĂ© and I are extremely busy. I'm moving out of my apartment into our new condo, I'm blessed to have parents help us with the financial aspect, but it's still tough. We are still working on small wedding details (it's stressing me out to my limit). My work schedule is crazy, it always has been. I unfortunately don't have anymore days to take off and I work weekends. My wedding shower is less than 4 weeks away. And even though this should be the happiest time of my life, I feel like I'm letting people down. I guess I shouldn't feel this way...but I do. And I'm sorry, if you feel like I'm letting you down. But honestly I just can't be there for you, the way I'd like to. I just can't lay down everything and come and see you, I just can't. You should know this breaks my heart. 

I still love you.
