6 Months

Six months...wow. EW and I have been married for 1/2 of a year. I guess it isn't much really, but I think it's a big deal! We have lived together for 6 whole months, without killing/injuring each other. That was one of my worries. We had a long distance relationship the whole time we were together (except while at school) and I didn't know how we would transition. However, ever thing has been great. Of course there have been a few downs, but everything has worked out.
A lot has happened in the past 6 months, more than I could sometimes deal with, but EW has been there helping me through it all. I've left the only place I called home, my family and friends, and changed towns, jobs, lifestyles, etc. Sometimes it felt as if my world was crashing all around me, but EW has been there every time I felt like quitting life, telling me that it would all be ok. Since getting a job, things have been better. I still don't know many people, but I'm hoping that it will come with time.
We have also added to our family in the past 6 months. I can't imagine life without my Bandit Blu. It's great to have someone to come home to at night, that loves you unconditionally. It really helps me after a hard day at work! We just went back today for her 2nd vet appointment. Our girl has gained 2lbs. in the past 2 weeks, making her 10lbs. I hope she stays under 20, but we will see. The vet still wants us to keep her from the grass other dogs have been, but we can go out just for a minute or two to go potty. As soon as our shots are done, Bandit will have her spay surgery, and her hernia fixed. Other than that, the vet says she looks great. After being a good girl we walked around PetSmart, and she got to pick out a couple new toys.
Ok, now for a walk down memory lane...
