Spring is just around the corner.....

I have been so busy these last few weeks working. I have finally found a job that is ok and I definitely like it more than the bank. I do, however, miss the people that I worked with. So, if any of you read this, I miss you guys & hope that all is well.

My husband & I have been settling into married life pretty easily. We are both working our asses off and still having a hard time making ends meet. But everyone I have talked to has said that this is normal and that things will get better. The family is fine. I have been spending sometime with Jennifer, Joy, & the kids. We have all went to the park a few times and just hung out. It is GREAT to have friends that you can just hang around with and be relaxed. I don't know what I would do without Joy or Jennifer.

Things are pretty much boring around here. We are having some behavioral problems with Sunny, our poodle. She is being very destructive with all of her toys and her bed. I am not really sure what her problem is except for the fact that she is mad at me for going back to work. She got really used to having me at home during the day and when I went back to work, she just got lonely. We are thinking about getting another dog to keep her company because then maybe she wouldn't get herself into that much trouble.

Rocky and I have also been talking about having a baby. I don't know what has come over me but here lately I have really been wanting to have a child. I would love to have a baby. We are going to start trying really soon!!!!! We both agree that we don't want to be old and not be able to do anything with our child. I just hope that we have a girl because he already has a son, so he needs a girl now. He agrees that he would like to have a girl. We have already decided that if it be a boy, we will name him after my brother and if we have a girl, we will name her after his sister. So that leaves us with Derek, Dianna, Stephen, & Lynn to pick from for a name. I really like the name Allyson Dianna Whitaker and call her Ally. But only time will tell.

I have to go because I have a job interview in the morning and I want to at least be awake.

Love, Erica
