To the MoDs if you feel this is not appropriate then feel free to delete it. But I just had to tell someone.

As some of you may know I just got out of a marriage that was not the best for me. But I have found an angel in this world. His name is Jeshua and he is the light of my life, I have known him for 6 years now. Even though we have only been dateing eachothere for 18 months (come Novenber 9th), he has been a very close friend for a long time.

We started dateing May 8th 2009, and at that time we lived across the state from one another. Then about 3 months after we started dating I desided that I was not happy where I am, so on a bright Wednesday morning I took the only $100 I had in the world and left. I took everything I could in my little S10 pick-up truck and told my mother and brother good-bye, and that I will be back later to see them and pick up the rest of my things.

A mere 6 hours later I was in Panama City Beach and picking my baby up from work and going to his house. After his lease was up in the apartment he had at the time with a great friend of ours, we moved into a cute little duplex that we could call our own at least for a short amount of time. It was only a block off the beach and only about .5 miles from the nearest mall called Pier Park. In the summer time Pier Park would do wonderful firework displays over the ocean and we could sit on the bed of my truck and watch them. Life was perfect. Then I lost my job and Jeshua had to take care of us all by himself and it was hard for a time.

Then when we came to the end of our lease and we had a choice to make, do we stay here in a little slice of paradise and go back to Jacksonville OR do we try and make it here with only one of us having a job. We decided to go ahead and move back to Jacksonville with my mother and brother to maybe help us get back up on our feet.

So we did, and we have been here for little over a month now. We are still at the point that I don%u2019t have a job and he does but we are still so happy. He asked me to marry him a while back and I said yes, we still have no rings or anything outwardly showing that we are engaged but my family and friends know and that is what really matters.

But now we have set a date and I am floating on cloud 9 and I am so happy. We have decided on December 17, 2011. December because his parents were married in December and the 17th because my grandparents were married on the 17th month of the year. I think it is the perfect time.

Sorry it is so long but, I just wanted to get it out there. I am just so happy and I want to shout it to the world.
