Boredom...it never evades me

So Nahro is again at work at night (2:00pm-10:30pm, which means he leaves at 1:30 only to return at 11) I have to keep myself busy for that time and am not fairing so well. With all this time on my hands I keep thinking how I have to move, and leave my husband, in two weeks and get a job. It is driving me absolutely crazy! My mom tells me to pray about it...I do and instantly feel calmer...for 15 minutes. I realize I am going to miss England, though I simply refuse to live here again!

I have discovered, while at the grocery store, that I was completely under dressed. I like going out with out makeup on. Well going anywhere requires much effort to look good here. Not that it bothers me, its I have figured out I am most definitely American! I am sure not many Brits were glued to their tellies (as they call it) yesterday to watch a presidential inauguration. Look at me I am rambling. That's what happens when there is no one here to talk to. UNfortunatly I still have 2 1/2 hours of torture left! At least with all this free time I am getting a few job applications done on-line! Well I should do dishes! If you all could pray for me while I try and figure out my new situation I would greatly appericate it.

Have a good day!

You've got The Right Stuff

So I know I have written in a month...and there was A LOT going on, but my story today is about my totally awesome night last night.

I was feeling a little sleepy on the ride down and Nahro kept telling me that I didn't have to go. Is he crazy?!?! So it began to rain as I jumped out of the car (I should mention that I dropped my phone on the floor waiting for an angry return text from Ash) anyway I jumped out into the rain and into the National Indoor Areana (the NIA) once I got inside I realized that Nahro failed to give me my money...and I forgot to get my phone...on the floor of the car! Ugh! I sat in my seat (on the floor section) and debated what to do. I finally found a pay phone and called Nahro to return with my phone and some money. I had to wait 15 minutes in the rain for him. Not just any rain either it was blowing and cold. I was only wearing a light (super dee duper) light jacket. Once I hauled my cold and dripping body back into the areana I returned to my seat to wait for the opening act Chantelle. She sounded a lot like Rihanna (She is from Barbados as well).

As I was sitting there waiting I was begginging to feel a little sad that Nahro didn't come with me. Then the lights went down and I bagan to join in the thousands of other women screaming, they were my age-ish(really there weren't many kids there men were pretty non exsistant as well!) I was suddenly glad that no one was there to witness that. I was screaming like I was ten again and I don't think I couldn't let anyone I know see me like that, except my sisters...but they are just as crazy as me! In the middle they came to the center of the areana and I was like less than 50 feeet from them! My dreams came true! IT WAS AWESOME.

After the concert I once again had to sit in the rain. This time I was nearly there fro 30 minutes. I was riding on a high the whole way home...even though I was soaked to the bone. Thank heavens for my husband! I hope you enjoy the pictures!

The Areana where the concert was The opening song..."Single"
I just thought the photo was cool...though it is blurry
Yeah I was this close...how cool am I!

Have an awesome day!
