Whats going on everyone who reads my crap!
The Bad:
So the year started off as a **** storm (are we aloud to use profanity here?). My uncle passed away last Halloween and Xmas was bad enough. With the New Year in swing it brought changes to the hierarchy of my families business. Positions were changed, added or dropped. This was all supposed to be for the better of the business and the family. Well of course not everyone like the ideas that were proposed and intended to have them changed to suit their goals. This brought about fighting and anger and eventually led me to literally rip a phone off the wall. It got so bad at one point that I decided to leave the business and find work somewhere else. So I ended up at a concrete block manufacturing company for the summer. To be honest it was the best job Ive ever had (out of a total of 16! only 23 right here). I learned more in those three months than I learned in 12 years at school. I did some crazy hard labor and got to spend 12 hours a day with my best friend who is more of a brother to me. The job made me realize that I missed my family and I missed the legacy that staying with the company that would ultimately bring me. So...I returned and things have thus far been good. Now with the holidays upon us once again and the anniversary of my uncles death behind us my family is arguing once again...naturally. Its come to a point where a finger can actually be pointed at one person...my aunt (moms sister, and sister to the uncle that passed). She is the baby of the three and always has to get here way. She has forced my mom to tears on more than one occasion because she is heartless and vindictive. I would love to cut her out of my life but I hold family in very high regards and she has a 12yr old daughter (my cousin) who I absolutely cherish. I have no younger siblings and she is actually only 1 of 4 grandchildren on my moms side so we are very close. I would do anything in the world and within my power to make her happy and the thought of losing her is devastating, so Im stuck as to what to do. Im a strong person and I believe I will have to swallow my pride until she is old enough to understand the entire situation. But we will see
The Good:
The best thing in my life right now is my girlfriend. We have known each other for almost five years now but have only been dating for 8 months. We worked together at a Logan's Roadhouse here in Louisville and became really close. She then proceeded to date horrible guys (which at 18 is expected) and we fell apart, still talking to each other a couple times a year. We finally reconnected last January and started hanging out again. After some discussion about what it would do to our friendship if we dated we decided to give it a try. She is awesome and everything to me. She has helped find the person I used to be and has helped get my life back in order. Ive decided that I want to keep her in my life forever and am now in the process of shopping for an engagement ring.
Sorry to make that so long but I had to get it out. Happy Holidays and stick around cause there will be more.
