Wow has it been a crazy few months. Most of you know that Trevor was in a car accident on 9/17/11. He was stopping at a stop sign here in Norwalk and was hit by a drunk driver at 9:45AM. He was heading to our bank and I started wondering why it was taking him so long. I then got that call that nobody ever wants to get from the Norwalk Police Department. The officer said Heather and of course since it was from Trevor's phone I didn't even realize that it wasn't Trevor's voice. I answer by going yeah you called me, he then says my name again and I was yeah what do you want. Oops. He then tells me his name which I don't remember and tells me Trevor has been in an accident. Of course I didn't want to hear it and I had him repeat what he said. At this point I am starting to panic because he says that Trevor was knocked unconscious and is in an ambulance and on his way to Iowa Methodist. I don't remember much of the conversation after this point because I totally blocked everything out. So of course I ask about my Escape and he says well it is being towed and it is not driveable. I really then panic because OMG Trevor is in an ambulance and my car is not driveable. I hang up and immediately start looking for Trevor's truck keys. Now if I would have stayed calm I would have known that Trevor always leaves his truck keys in one certain spot. I then call Trevor's parents and I really did try and stay calm while talking to his mom but that didn't happen either. I broke down and was crying. I thank god almost every night that I still have my husband and my family is still together and that he only suffered minor injuries for the most part. He still has headaches which he never had before and his back is still hurting but he is alive and I am happy for that.
Now, my close friend Rhonda called me toward the end of September and more or less begged me to join Farrell's with her. So I went to Orientation with her and decided that I would do this with her. Now if I make a promise I try my hardest to follow through with my promises. I talked Trevor into joining with us and it has been the best decision I have ever made, well besides marrying Trevor and having my children. We have survived the first 10 weeks of Farrell's and I am so excited. I have lost 22 pounds since July, I have went down 1 size in pants and I am eating healthier. This is a HUGE accomplishment. All 3 of us have committed to continuing with Farrell's so we will see where I go from here.
In November I took a family vacation to Orlando, Florida with my family and my brother's family. It was so amazing. We of course planned out what we wanted to do and we did everything on our list. We started out by spending a day in St. Petersburg. We took a Dolphin Cruise and then spent the day at Madeira Beach. As we watched the sunset my brother took Jenny by the hand and walked down the beach and PROPOSED. Of course I had tears in my eyes but they were good tears. It was so romantic. We then spent 2 days at Disney World. OMG the walking was horrible but great at the same time. We spent our last day at Cocoa Beach which is on the Atlantic side. It was so much fun. We did body boarding which was fun but I did not like the outcome of one of the waves.
While in Florida I accepted a promotion with my job. I officially started my new position December 1st and it has been quite an experience. (good one though) I love my new job so far and I just know that I will succeed in this position. (Regional Area Supervisor) That's all I have for now. I did try and minimize so I hope this isn't too long for my readers!
