Motorcycle License

So I'm not sure if I have posted about this or not but my husband has a motorcycle & loves riding it. Who wouldn't, it is so freeing and exhilarating. Well before him, I had guy friends that would give me rides on the back of their motorcycles but that never really got me into thinking of getting my own or my license.

But, now that my hubby has one & he recently joined a motorcycle club, I have decided to get my license & my own motorcylce. I might as well do it now before I have any children. Today, I am going to the local motorcycle mall in town to get a basics class (what gear to get and what bike is right for me). The woman that is going to give the class started riding about 12-15 yrs ago & has her own basic riding class school. Now I have to save $300 so I can take her riding class, that way I can learn all the safe ways to be on the road and be a safe rider. I hope that I can get into her Sept class that way I can get my bike soon.

I hope this can be me by Oct or Nov. Wish me luck.

Haven't Really Talked to Him =(

So we are going into the 2nd week of my DH being away at 29 Palms & we haven't really talked except for early morning July 5th. I got in from watching the fireworks with my friend Jessica & her BF Alejandro around 10:45pm. I decided to do Insanity before bed so I did it and right after got in the shower. While I was finishing up I heard someone calling on Skype it was the hubby. I got to talk to him for about an hour and half. I was a very happy wife when I got off the phone & went to sleep. It was so good being able to hear his voice & see his sexy face.

I can wait until he is home, and according to him he told me yesterday in a quick text that he should be back in Jersey in 2 days. Which is sooner then they were supposed to come back so who really knows because I haven't spoken to him at all since.

Besides not being able to get in touch with the DH I haven't had a bad time alone. This past weekend I spent it in the pool with family & friends. I got a little color on me.

Then yesterday my best friend Kim (Partna) & Ary came over for dinner. it was the first time I cooked since Angel has been gone. Then we watched Teen Wolf while drinking a glass on wine....lol....we had a good time & I needed that because I was really missing my DH yesterday.

Hopefully I get to talk to him tonight (fingers crossed).

Celebrating Our Anniversary

So since Angel got home from work late on our anniversary last Monday, we are going to celebrate it on Saturday. He said we can do anything that I want, so since the state fair starts on friday we are going to do that during the day. Then later on in the day we are going to have dinner where we had our wedding reception. It should be a good day and weekend.



Relaxing Weekend

I think the hubby & I had one of the best weekends ever in a long time. We did absolutely nothing but hangout with each other. We went to visit my mom on Friday for an hr, then came home to watch South Park on Netflix. Saturday morning we ran errands until we had to meet up with my father-in-law to look at cars for him. Then came home to relax and enjoy the rest of the day. Sunday I went and tried to go visit my friend who is in a state prison but since the guards always come up with new stupid rules I couldn't go in, so my mom and her friend went in while I waited outside. Then came home to my wonderful husband and relaxed some more. I waited until he was done playing on his Xbox and then went to Applebee's to eat dinner.

I can't complain of my weekend because we had an awesome time together even if all we did was lounge around.....lol.

Why Are Men So Insecure?

So I got a text from my husband yesterday morning & he starts telling me that he feels that there is something not right. I ask him what does he mean, things not right between us or me? Of course, like always he says its me, that this weekend while he was at drill and he called me that I wasn't paying attention & asking a lot of questions to make it seem like I was pay attention.

Like I tell him time & time again, I have been hurt before & have also been cheated on by a previous ex just like he has, so I know what that feel likes & I would never want to make him feel like that as long as I'm with him. He is the love of my life, I would go crazy if something were to ever happen between us, he is truly my soul-mate, my one & only, my prince charming in combat boots, my hero. Like I told him if he is insecure then that is something he has  to work out because I have never given him a reason to feel like I am doing him dirty.

But when he came home tonight we talked it out, had dinner, had our quality, & made love before going to sleep. It was one of the best nights we have had in awhile.

He might get on my nerves & want him to leave me alone sometimes but that man truly is my rock & wouldn't trade him for anything in the world.

I love you Mr. Camacho

Happy Late Easter

So we had a very relaxing Easter. We got up went to to church at 0011 with the father and brother-in-law Gabriel. It was such a nice service, we came back home and the guys were working on my husbands motorcycle in tue garage, while I was in the house cooking Easter lunch. They finished up we ate and the guys stayed home watching a movie while I went to visit my mother before she went to church in the afternoon to eat leftovers they her brothers in God had ate after their mass this in the morning. I went back home, the hubby and I were supposed to go watch a movie but opted to rent one instead and relax at home. Now I am dying to get out of work on time so I can go workout, go home, cook, and then write a paper for school that is due tomorrow.

Later my loves!!!!

7 lbs Down......79 lbs To Go

Yup, I've done it. I have gotten down to 232 lbs since I have started this program and to think I have lost 10 lbs since I decided to change my life. It feels so good without the weight and to actually go to the gym and working out, "make my fat cry". My husband sees the difference in my body already and has told me how proud he is of me and that just gets me even more motivated to keep going.  

I've Been MIA Once Again.....

Hey everyone, I'm sorry that I have been gone for a while, but I promise I will be back on the regular. The holidays came and went, so did my 25th Birthday on the 2nd of Jan. I can't believe that I didn't post anything on here to update you guys on how I'm doing. Well I am going to school again, my first day was on the Jan 17th. I'm attending online classes at Ashford University for Education Studies. I will finsih my first course on Monday and I am getting an A so far. I'm supposed to finish with my Bachelors Degree in Dec of 2015.

Our friend Andy that went w/ me & our family to Parris Island to pick up my husband from boot just graduated from boot camp himself. But he couldn't go into the Marine Corps so he went Army. My husband & I were unable to go to his graduation because it was right smak in the middle of the week. Since I just started at my job I still didn't have personal days & if he doesn't work he doesn't get paid. So what we decided to do was save money  go to his AIT graduation in Ft. Jackson, SC in May.  

This past Tuesday was Valentine's Day. My husband are not really big on the whole holiday, but I decided to make a special dinner for the both of us and enjoy in some desserts that I also made. 

Steak with garlic potatoes along with shrimp seasoned in basil, garlic, & red pepper flakes, cooked in white wine.

Chocolate covered strawberries & cupcakes.

Well I will finish here because I have to finish my quiz for school.

Enjoy the rest of your night everyone.

Our First Thanksgiving At Our Place

Well as you guess got from the title we had Thanksgiving at our place this year. We finally have a big enough place to have people over to enjoy the holiday. We had 16 people in total all together, I was running around like a kitchen without a head all week & working. But in the end it was all worth it, just to be able to spend Thanksgiving with my husband, my mother, & the rest of the family. We even had a surprise come from NC. My husbands cousin came for Thanksgiving and his wife went to Florida to see his family. 


All in all it was a great day with a lot of ups and downs but we loved have Thanksgiving at our place for the first time. 

Marine Corps Ball

Hey loves, so the Marine Corps Ball; for my husbands company was last Saturday (11/19/11). We had an awesome time, the dj was way better then last year & the food was great. The guest speaker was a retired Marine who served our country for 30 yrs and loved it. He was such an inspiration to the guys. The video that they played this year at the ball was so moving and touching,  I know there were many ppl crying because I was since they were talking about the Sept 11th attacks. 

I know I had said we were going to stay at the hotel & they were supposed to do something nice for us but we ended up leaving at the end of the night because we needed the money that we were going to use to pay for the room to fix my cars axle. So no hotel stay for us :( !!

OH I forgot to tell you, while the ceremony was going on one of the Marines that was standing next to the cake was falling asleep, so one of my husband's squad leaders got up and switched places with him. I just hope he went alone because he was going to be embarassed in front of his guest if he wasn't after the ceremony. 

Now, I'll leave you with a picture. 

Marine Ball Here I Come

I can't believe that the ball is in 2 wks for us. We are staying at the hotel this time around, & I am so excited. I already have my dress & let me tell you I have only lost 8 lbs this month but I think I look good in my dress. I already have my shoes. All I have to do that day is get my hair and nails done. 

I even told the hotel if they can do something special for us since my husband wasn't home this yr to celebrate our wedding anniversary & they are going to surprise us, which I think is awesome considering it is 5 months after our wedding anniversary. I will take lots of pictures to show all of you what they did & how the ball turned out.

 

Happy Halloween & November 1st Everyone!!

I hope everyone had a safe & fun filled Halloween weekend. I know we did, even though we got hit with the weird snow storm on Saturday. We ended getting last minute costumes to go celebrate my sister-in-laws B-Day at a club here in Elizabeth, NJ. Even though it had snowed we made the best of it. I will leave you with some of the pictures from that day. If you guys want to see the rest just go to my facebook page. My husband was Scooby Doo and I was his sexy Buccaneer....lol.....we didn't match this year as a couple.

Things Are Looking Up

I know a few of you ladies know what was going on btwn my husband and I back in the summer. We'll just to bring you guys up to date here are a few msgs btwn my husband and I that can let you know we are great. We no longer fight about stupid petty things or we don't go through each others phones or personal things. We have been good for the past month or so because before that we where fighting constantly and it was really getting to us, it come to the point that I couldn't say or do anything with out having him blow up and vis versa. But I leave you with these images.



Better Weekend Then Last Weekend

Original written date 9/26/11:


So my UTI is gone....woohoo! And Friday I went to my cousin in laws 19th B-Day party, we had a blast. Then as her birthday gift we went to the Enrique Iglesias Euphoria concert, with 2 participating artists that were on tour with him; Pitbull & Prince Royce. When we bought the txts there were only the ones in the nose bleed section but we didn't care we were gonna make the best of our time there. Luckily for us we went to buy some memorabilia from the concert and tried to see if we can find some empty seats. And jackpot we hit the mother load and found awesome seats on the lower level instead of the second upper level. We had an awesome time. Our move was definitely worth it.

Sorry this post is so short but I promise I will update you more me later.

Happy Birthday Mr Camacho & 100th Post!

Today is my husband's 27th birthday & I can't be with him to clebrate yet thanks to the good ol' Marine Corps. He is still out in the field & won't be back until Saturday. Thank God it is this week because Admin had messed up the bus contracts & he had told me that he might have to stay for another week because the contract said they had to be picked up the 29th instead of the 22nd. I swear when he told me my heart sank, but I'm so happy that it was all worked out & I get to pick him up on Saturday & celebrate his Birthday.

I love you hunny I hope you make the best out of today with your brothers in arms!!!

I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS MY 100TH POST!!!!

I'm so happy that I have become friends & have come to get to know so many Military Wives. I even meet a great friend from the bloggy world. She even came out to my place for dinner & have a few laughs. We have become so close & I am glad that I was able to find a great friend in her.

Awesome Weekend

So I had a great weekend as you can tell fromt he title of my blog, unfortunatley I forgot my camera at home when I went to the pool on base so you wont get to see anything from Saturday but on Sunday we took pictures at Dorney Park.

So on Friday night I picked up my oldest niece so she can spend the weekend with me. I had plans so she can have a great weekend. We woke up late on Saturday, we had 30 mins to get ready pack the car up, pick up my cousin with her son, & my mom. Then we headed to the Arm Base where my husband is stationed. They have a great pool on base & of course it is so cheap for us military dependants that don't live on base. I was able to take 4 guests. We were there for a good 4 hrs. I went to the commissary bought things to make sandwiches and made our lunch. We went home just so I can get ready to go to an in-laws, after that rush back home because I had to baby sit my Goddaughter until her mama called & cancelled so my niece & I went home and watched Easy A until we knocked out.

Yesterday we got up early to get dressed & ready to pick up my Partna in Crime (Kim) & head out to Allentown, PA where Dorney Park is located. We had such an awesome time just us girls. We got to the park around 10:30 got on all the water rides and lounged by the pool to work on our tan. After all that swimming around & catching rays we got hungry so we went to the car to have some lunch & change into our dry clothes. We got ready & headed back to the park to enjoy all the roller coaster along with everythng else. We took some pictures so I will share with you.......

We had such a great time that I am going agin this coming Sunday with the hubby since he is finally coming back on Saturday from the field.....yay!!!!

 

My 4th of July Weekend Recap

Hey bloggy world!!! Sorry I haven'twritten for a while but I have been reading all your blogs. So I had a great 4th of July, we were supposed to go to the go to the NJ State Fair on Friday but ended up knocking with the hubby while watching a movie on the couch.

Saturday we went to Staten Island so babes can get numbers for the payments he will be making for when he buys a bike. He is so excited to get a motorcycle. But just his luck the motorcycle store was closed for the holiday weekend. Went to another motorcycle mall here in Belleville, NJ actually only 5 mins away & got all the info he needed. We should've just went there in the first place...lol. But it was a good adventure & time in the car going to Staten Island. 

Later on that night my goddaughter came to sleep over while her mommy went out on a date with her boyfriend. We were getting a lil practice with having kids because she is only 6  months. We had a good time playing with her & so did our puppy Hope.

Sunday our goddaughter was picked up & we just had a relaxing rainy day at home. We tried to go see Bad Teacher but the movie theater was too crowded & couldn't find a parking so we just went home. We got all our stuff ready for the lake on Monday.

Yesterday we got up around 5AM to be at the SIL house at 5:30AM so we can be on our way to the lake. We had to wait until 8AM to get in to the park & until 10AM. We had a great time, with family, food, music, friends & the sun (which by the way I got burned :(.....it hurts). We came back home early enough to rest & get ready to go see the fireworks at the local high school's football field. We took the puppy & she was terrified I felt so bad for the lil miss.

Sorry it got so long but I haven't updated you guys in a while.

PS~Things with the hubby & I are great, & this time apart that he will be out in the field for 2 1/2 wks will just make us stronger.



Not So Happy....

I don't even know how to start writing this but I am so confused with my marriage & how my husband has been acting lately. It breaks my heart to know that I'm not entirely happen at this  very moment in my marriage & with Angel. This past Saturday was our 1yr wedding anniversary but since he was at base this past weekend we went out to dinner on Sunday. All we did was talk about how I'm always fighting with him, that he never does anything for me to get mad, etc & etc. All it was him telling me how I have changed & if I don't change to how I was before we aren't going to last & how he doesn't want a failed marriage.

When he was telling me all of this all I wanted to do was just roll in to a ball & cry. I mean I know I have changed but so has he, people change in 5 yrs. I wish he was still this very affection guy like he was in the beginning & help me around the house. But like he says I'm the woman & he is not used to doing anything in the house because his mother used to do everything, so he expects me to do it too. I know that I have the wife role at home but for him to help me shouldn't be such a big deal  for us to get into an argument. I just feel like he is blaming me for all our problems & arguments, & I hate that because a marriage isn't just with one person it takes 2 people to have a marriage.

I also hate the fact that now he changed the password to his phone. Not that I want to check his phone or go through it but if he has nothing to hide why put a lock on it, I mean he gets mad everytime I ask him to use his phone for something. He used to be so sweet with me, called me beautiful everyday but now nothing, he calls her beautiful & texts to see how she is doing when he used to do that with me. When he used to get home from work he would give me the biggest hugs or when I used to get home he would drop everything he was doing to greet me. I'm lucky if I even get a kiss and a hi now.

I know that I shouldn't be going through his Facebook but I have already found a few messages btwn him & this other chic that he used to talk to all the time with from Pennsylvania. He says he meet her on line & has never meet her face to face but I don't know what to think anymore. I mean he talks to her all the time, her baby's father doesn't even know about my husband. So they keep it a secret from us that they talk because he erases all their messages & texts when I sit next to him he covers his phone so I won't see what he is doing or talking to. He was never like that before but like I say things are different.

I never thought that our relationship would come to this but I just want to cry & can't because I'm at work but it hurts to know or think that he is cheating or has thought of cheating. I don't want to think that he is unhappy with me & regrets marrying me at all, but I don't want to think that he wants to leave me......

I'm sorry this got so long but I had to get it off my chest.  

Sorry for being MIA

As some of you know my cousin Johanna Paniagua past on May 25th, 2011. If you didn't read my previous posts you can read here and here. I flew out to California on Wednesday morning, the rest of my family from Maryland flew out on  Thursday. We were all together to support my family, we weren't there for vacation but it was one of the greatest times I have ever had with my family.

The funeral was on Friday (06/03/11), it was a beautiful ceremony, viewing, & funeral.

Then in the night we went to The Walk of Fame in Hollywood to do the things that she liked to do, so we went to The Hard Rock Cafe & took so shots in in her name. After that we all back to the house we were staying at to hangout with my cousin Johnny (her lil bro) plus other friends & I ordered pizza for everyone.

On Saturday we went to our 2nd cousin Sandra's house, then to Jo's friend Amy's house & to Hollywood again with some of the parents.

I left Sunday morning & arrived at LaGuardia Airport in NY, my husband picked us up & took us home, it was such a long trip but so worth it.


Sorry this got so long but I just wanted to update all you guys. Please keep our family in your prayers because we are all going to need it.
