number one I can't say a whole lot about, This is due to the fact is that it's going to be really really big. It's going to involve a lot of hard work and preparation on my part, which will take away from my down time.
A wise man (gardner) once told me, people come to America to live the American dream, however, They soon find out that dream died a very long time ago. Americans dreams on large scale eventually don't come true, most little boys do not become astronauts or firefighter's, most little girls do not become nurses or stay at home moms. (I wanted to be Pro Basketball player, but gave up on that in the 9th grade.) American's dream, but that's all most Americans do is dream.
If there is something you really want to do, you have to work at it. I don't mean just in passing, you have take that one thing you want to do and make it your job. Most people get stuck doing something they don't want to do. For me I'm stuck in the food industry, I make good money, but It sucks, And I hate it, what sucks the most is that I'm good at what I do, but I hate it. However, If you put in 40 hours a week on what you really want to do and forget all the other bull crap, you will succeed or you will fail, but it won't be because you didn't give it your best.
I am going to be working over the next month or so to do just that. I will be working to simplify life so that I can focus on my ultimate goals. This will be evermore present on the amount of work I will be doing, It's time to stop doing stupid crap during my time off from my current crappy job, and use that time to accomplish what needs to be accomplished. It will however cut out my video game,Tv, and movie time. This is the first thing I will be doing out of the Three!!
the second is Anne and I are moving. End of the subject, I know a lot of people are going to be sad, a lot of people will miss us, and trust me on this, we will you in return. Moving is a necessity, This area is fantastic for many reasons and it will be sad to leave, but if Anne and I are ever going to get our family into the positive progression, We have to leave. We will miss my Family. We leave behind, My Mom and Dad, Sister and Brother in law, Grandfather tons of uncles, aunts and cousins, nephews and such. I will miss you all, but I have to move forward and this is the only way I am going to be able to step out of the rut I am in professionally.
I will leave behind friends, by the truckload, I will greatly miss each of you. I had a conversation with Anne recently about this, I told her, I know I am going to go into a social recession where I don't want to be around anyone,because I will miss everyone. I am going to just play my RPG's and read, I am not going to be happy, but it's going to have to happen if I am going to get my future kids college funds started.
I will miss this areas awesome church community as well. It's great going out to eat and running into several members and just feeling that since of community and belonging, but it's not that strong for us anyway, I mean lets face it no one other than the Shafers even know we exist outside of Sunday, so it's not like we are loosing a massive community that actually wants us around. I mean, I try to invite people who go to our ward over, I have tried over and over and over, but it's just not worth it, Nobody other than the Shafers give a crap about the Entsmingers. Seriously. I have tried to invite people who Anne likes over. Nothing. We have repeatedly asked several couples over to do stuff, nothing. not even a response. You know what, we are leaving and we are perfectly fine with the fact that even though we have reached out to like 25 couples that only one couple was nice enough to give us a chance, and you know what. I hate to blow the Shafer's ego's up here, not that would let that happen anyway, But even if all 25 couples we repeatedly asked to hang out from our ward showed up, we would only want to hang out with the Shafer's anyway, because out of the 25 they are by far the hippest and kick it like it's a tin can on a curb. I mean come on, when you have Cody and Sara, who else do you need. Nobody. So you know what, Shafer's I am going to miss you guys very much and it Sucks that we are leaving, but again it's gotta go down.
Then we have our non-member friends who are plentiful and loads of fun. I mean my best freaking bud in the whole wide world Justan Slagle is and has been a staple in my household for years. He doesn't even knock. His Gal Shana and Anne have become fast friends and hang like a couple of bats catching a nap during tea. The Slagle duo is going to be missed, not having them around is going to make me cry. I'm just putting it out there for the world to know, I am going to cry over not having Justan just up the street. Tears will flow. They will flow for weeks, Hell they are flowing right now at the thought of them flowing later. This Transition is going to suck so hard, but the ends will justify the means, plus they can come visit as much as they want, both couples. and anyone else who wants to come.
I'm not going to name anymore people, but those of you who continuously get invited to our house either as couples or individually, you will all be missed, if you were invited to futurama o rama or open mics or game parties you know we love you, it's too many to name, but just know I love you all and will miss you terribly, leaving breaks my heart loosing each one of you hurts, but trust in this its for the greater good, and you will always be remembered and loved. our time in Buena Vista Va, will be remembered for several things not all good, but definitely not all bad. It's really funny how the bad memories from this place revolve solely around two things, lack of jobs in this area, and the way one individual of the church ruined our first 6 months of marriage. She will be a large scar on this area forever in our memory, but from rumors, I hear, Karma is nasty bug bite to get rid of on the ass of life. The Friends we have made and the memories we have made with you won't be forgotten and the marks you made in our lives won't go away, I hope you remember us as fondly as we will remember you.
Third thing that's happening to Brandon and Anne, well just Brandon really, Is I have two small story lines going on and will be posting them soon, one is violent the other is hilarious. You all will appreciate those, That's something to look forward too on my blog!!
Sorry I got all emotional, but that crap happens. Here are a few photo's of loved ones that will be sorely missed.
I will admit I stole some of the photo's off of your facebook pages, so if you don't want them here, I'll take them off at your request.
The pictures include (in no particular order as a matter of fact, I don't even know which ones are there it's in Html format) friends I made that i worked with, through work, personal, school, and church, I'm not in a lot of them i just grabbed a bunch just to kind of show who I know I'll miss, and people I actually hung out with and actually enjoyed the company of. I prob will miss a bunch of people and for that I'm sorry, but I'm not going to be anal and get a pic of everyone.
Make sure to look in the backgrounds some people I could only get in the background like Cy! Some of them are just funny pictures of friends, I don't know why i did this, but enjoy it. they are great pics.
I would also like to note that these are people who are here in VA that we will miss, so I left out some of you who are already far away, So don't feel neglected, It's VA peeps only.
