Beginnings!

Now this whole thing started one day my sister suggested to me “You should try to be a firefighter” cause of my need to stay active. So I said heck yea! Had know idea what I was getting into, never knew of anyone close to me that was a firefighter to ask questions. In stead I just enrolled and was to start in a month. Yikes!

You can imagine all the nerves I had. I started to think… Would I be able to lift the things they did or move as fast as the boys? Than again my lovely sister told me “You’ll just have to figure out different ways of lifting things”. These words will forever echo in my head! No joke!  

Coming to the school I had no idea what to expect. Not gonna lie, I was VERY nervous. I think I was expecting maybe like the T.V. shows or movies where the boys would be extremely disagreeing to the fact females were there in there territory. At first the young freshmen boys weren’t sure to talk to me or just to stay the heck away and far away. But some how I met some really nice respectful guys, they eventually came around after seeing the guys who have been there a longer. 

Ok now for What the New Year brought to me, was… a dark haired, handsome (sexy)”PLUS”, older man ”PLUS”, and he’s from my hometown “BONUS”.  Such a sweet guy and a very big gentleman, actually very surprised he wasn’t already taken because you know them older guys are either married or have two kids Yikes!

To tell ya the truth I had no intentions on going back to my hometown, I was ready to travel the world on a hotshot crew following the fire. HA! Never even got out of the state. Big dreams for a small town girl. Huh? But one day last semester I realized I did want to settle down. I’ll be 25 when I finish school. Doesn’t give me much time to establish myself in a department AND in a relationship to the point of kids. Cause I do want kids even as much as I swear them off. And I do want to be married as much as I’ve run away.

But this guy has brought a change in me that I didn’t even see coming. Seriously! I’m all the sudden thinking of kids and getting married and how I can finish school from my hometown. And frankly to tell ya the truth I think I pretty much have it figured out.

Sooo… We’ll see this year if everything pans out. Cause everybody knows how plans work especially for “I” They can change faster than Kansas Weather.
